In this interview Shinsuke Nakamura says he wants more matches with Roman Reigns: "Roman has a real responsibility for WWE and professional wrestling, and a responsibility to his bloodline to be the best professional wrestler. He is one of the best in the world. But I need to get the WWE world title. I need to prove I'm better than him. Roman has that fighting spirit. I want to wrestle him more, and that includes Rick Boogs vs. Paul Heyman."

Here Juice Robinson talks about his future with NJPW: "My life coming out of this pandemic was way better than it was going in. My life has totally changed. We don't need to get personal about my life story and stuff but when this all started I had a little bachelor pad/studio apartment in Tokyo, next to Shinjuku Station, the world's largest train station so I was living a fast bachelor lifestyle. Not saying I didn't want to settle down but there were no signs of slowing down. Now I am sitting in a house that I bought, I am engaged, I am gonna be married, I have a dog running around annoying me as we speak, it's just a crazy thing. I'll always be with New Japan in my heart. Those are my guys, those are my boys, those are my people that gave me the chance, I'll never turn my back on New Japan. But right now my life has just changed, I am just not that 25 year old kid with a Paul McCartney autobiography in his book bag wanting to travel the world anymore. That's just not who I am. But I still want to be part of New Japan and I just don't know how I am going to be but I will be."

SmackDown highlights and new WWE related videos are below.

In addition here are new All Elite Wrestling videos.

In this interview FTR's Dax Harwood says it has been a roller coaster 12 months: "I would say a roller coaster just like life. Life is a roller coaster. I think this last year has been a roller coaster too. I think after losing the match to The Young Bucks at Full Gear and losing the AEW Tag Team championships, we tried to find our footing again. We got intertwined into the Inner Circle and Pinnacle feud. But I think, and I think Cash will agree with me over the last three months, we've hit our stride, and I think we're on the biggest roll we've ever been on."

Matt Cardona talks about whether or not he'll ever return to AEW or WWE: "I text with Tony Khan, I had a text conversation with him a couple of months ago. But it was nothing like, 'oh, come to AEW,' it was nothing like that, which is very nice about the work I've been doing. I've not been talking to WWE. Listen, I love WWE. I love my time there, I am forever grateful for my time. The only thing I ever wanted to do was be a WWE Superstar. If it wasn't for WWE, I wouldn't have been able to create my podcast and have the time of my life right now. I'm not saying, 'never say never,' but I have no intentions of going back anytime in the near future. If they want to bring me to WrestleMania in Dallas to induct me into the Hall of Fame, I am 100% down. I mean, that's the biggest WrestleMania of all time, I became the Intercontinental Champion. If they want to induct me into the Hall Of Fame for that, since we're in Dallas again, I would go. But as for returning, not yet."

WWE is disputing Keith Lee's assertion that he paid all his own medical bills: "Keith Lee's recent comments implying WWE failed to pay his medical bills are erroneous. WWE has an extensive healthcare program for the medical care of its in-ring performers and Mr. Lee was part of this program while with the company. Should Mr. Lee have any concerns over the payment of medical bills, he is welcome to address them with WWE."

Kenny Omega talks about his expectations facing Hangman Page at Full Gear: "Both of us have put a lot of heart and soul into this. We haven't been handed scripts or sat in production meetings to build this story. A lot of this comes from reality. Maybe we've sensationalized some of the details, but there is a lot of truth to the story we're telling. There is real-life emotion attached to this clash."

And here is Hangman Page's response: "I wouldn't even say the story has borrowed from my real life, as much as it is real life. Each step of the way, I'd ask myself, 'How do I feel about this right now?' And I'd just give you the truth."

This week's Impact Wrestling held onto its 0.02 18-49 demo, but viewership dropped from 118,000 to 79,000. (Wrestlenomics)
