Appearing on Busted Open Radio following his return to WWE, AJ “Top Dolla” Francis of Hit Row said that he kept in touch with Triple H ever since he was released last November and HHH would keep tabs on the group while they were working the indies.
Francis said that nearly two weeks ago, Levesque called him and asked him how fast they can make it back and after a Zoom call between all parties involved, all three had a contract offer, physicals booked, and a creative plan laid down.
“It was a breath of fresh air,” Francis said. “I was down when we got released. Hit Row was hotter than anything in wrestling. Period. I don’t care who you are…get your feelings hurt if you want. When we got released, I feel we had something great and it turned into ashes in my hand,” he continued, adding that getting released made him stop watch wrestling on TV for the first time in his life.
“I went eight months without watching wrestling,” he said.
The former football player also discussed the rumors that he had confrontations with Vince McMahon back in November of last year which played in the group getting released as well.
He said that people say that he’s hard to work with, but he refuted the idea, saying he’s just hard to fool.
“I’m not hard to work with, I’m hard to fool. You can’t tell me something that’s not true and you’re not going to stand on. That’s how I was raised. If that makes me wrong, I’m going to be wrong forever,” Francis said.
While Levesque was not there when Hit Row got released last year, Francis did mention that HHH told him he’s not interested in what happened with Vince and told him that WWE is now a new place and they have a clean slate.
During an interview with Bleacher Report, WWE Hall Of Famer Shawn Michaels talked about running NXT when Triple H had the cardiac event and the brand was relaunched to a more colorful one.
Vince McMahon, who ultimately took the decision to rebrand NXT from black and gold to a rainbow of colors and concentrating more on the developmental side of WWE, was rumored to be running the show with Bruce Prichard by his side.
But Shawn Michaels, who took over the reigns of the brand, said that when his former tag team partner left, it all fell on him.
“Matt Bloom is the head coach and takes care of everything from a PC training standpoint, but when it came to NXT 2.0 television, that’s something myself and my team took over creatively,” Michaels said.
He continued, “I know a lot of people thought Vince and Bruce were doing that. I can promise you, they did not have the time to do NXT television. If it’s good or if it’s bad, that’s on me.”
Michaels, who’s enjoying the challenge to run his small brand, said it has been a joy to run NXT with the up-and-coming talent that they have.
“Everyone was put in a real tough position, we all were, but that’s where you learn to do things in WWE. That, to me, is a form of talent development, which is understanding that things can always change around here and you have to adjust to that,” he said, adding that the whole experience was really a trial by fire for a lot of them but it has been a fantastic journey so far.
Impact Wrestling on AXS TV this week drew 131,000 viewers, up 16,000 viewers from last week’s broadcast and the most-watched show since March 31. The show did the usual 0.03 rating in 18-49 demo and was in #131 spot in the cable chart for the night. (Ratings credit: Showbuzzdaily.com)
The Undertaker 1 deadMAN Show set for September 2 in Cardiff, Wales, is sold out according to the venue and no more tickets are available.
Tickets, which sold for £105, the equivalent of $125, went on sale two days ago on Friday along with VIP meet and greet tickets which were £260, or $315. The show is being held at the New Theatre Cardiff on the eve of Clash At The Castle.
The venue is advertising this show as a “phone-free experience” with the use of phones, smartwatches, and other related accessories not permitted to be used at all during the show.
“Upon arrival at the venue, all phones, smart watches and accessories will be secured in individual Yondr pouches that will be opened at the end of the event. Guests maintain possession of their devices at all times, and can access them throughout the event only in designated phone use areas within the venue. All devices will be re-secured in Yondr pouches before returning to the performance space,” the website says. Anyone seen using a device during the performance will be escorted out of the venue by security.
This is the second Undertaker one-man show following the one in Nashville on the eve of SummerSlam. This venue holds around 1,000 fans.
Drew McIntyre has been taken off this weekend’s non-televised live events due to a back injury which has kept him out for a few weeks earlier this year.
The number one contender for the Undisputed WWE Universal title has been dealing with back issues for months now and needs rest according to ProWrestling.net’s Jason Powell. To prevent any further damage, McIntyre missed last night’s event in Salisbury, Maryland, and will not be at tonight’s Atlantic City, New Jersey show.
While no surgery is expected, the Scottish warrior will be taking things easy until Clash at the Castle where he will main event the show with Roman Reigns in front of so far over 62,000 fans in Cardiff, Wales.
McIntyre will be at Smackdown next week for a face-to-face segment with Roman Reigns.
Kris Statlander will need another surgery on her right knee after she said she tore her ACL and lateral meniscus during a match taped for Dark last week.
In a post on Instagram, Statlander showed the training she is doing to maintain as much strength as possible to lessen post-op atrophy. While she did not specify when she is undergoing surgery, the 27-year-old said that she will come back stronger than before just like last time.
“It’s not a setback unless you allow it to be,” she said of the situation.
Statlander tore her left ACL in mid-2020 and was out for 10 months before she made her return in April 2021.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer is reporting that WWE has canceled the next two sets of NXT UK television tapings as the BT Sport Studios in London are being used for football coverage.
Rather than going to a different location, WWE has apparently scrapped these tapings and Meltzer said that the decision has brought some uneasiness with it as NXT UK staff fear for their future.
PWInsider.com also adds to the story that currently there are no future TV tapings for NXT UK scheduled to happen in the United Kingdom so that could mean two things: either tapings are moving to the U.S. or the brand is getting scrapped.
Several NXT UK stars will be traveling to the United States this month so there could be a plan where the show will be filmed in Orlando.
AEW has scooped up Parker Boudreaux, a one-time WWE prospect who was surprisingly released from NXT earlier this year.
Boudreaux, who made his debut on Dark and yesterday was part of the Rampage tapings, made enough of a good impression for AEW President Tony Khan to offer him a deal.
“After a win in his @AEWonTV debut + an eventful night for The Trustbusters, it’s official: @TheParkerB_ is #AllElite!,” Khan wrote.
Boudreaux was signed to a WWE developmental deal last year and made his debut as Harland with Joe Gacy. He had the support of none other than Paul Heyman and even Brock Lesnar but the former football player was cut in April.
Boudreaux is now part of The Trustbusters with Ari Daivari and Slim J.

The WWE Performance Center lost one of its best ones this month as strength and conditioning coach Sean Hayes has departed WWE for a new gig with the XFL.
In the XFL, Hayes will be the Director of Player Performance and will oversee player strength and conditioning programs and athletic development, utilizing the XFL’s Hub in Arlington as a centralized training facility. He will report to Marc Ross, Executive Vice President, Football Operations.
“Sean has a very impressive track record coaching elite athletes, working within the Houston Texans organization, and most recently, leading the WWE’s strength and conditioning program,” said Russ Brandon, President of the XFL. “To build a unique football ecosystem for our players, we will surround them with the best trainers, coaches, and resources to support them and allow them to grow as professional athletes. Sean’s meticulous and individualized coaching style will be an essential component of our holistic player development strategy, and we are thrilled to have him as part of our League.”
Hayes was regarded as one of the best coaches at the Performance Center and helped tons of wrestlers get back into shape after injuries as well.
The former linebacker at Harvard University had been working for WWE since 2016 where he oversaw all strength and conditioning activities for more than 140 athletes. He also built the PC’s first-ever comprehensive training program.
Last Week’s Rating: 468,000 overall; 0.15 in 18-49 demo
Total viewership was up last week, but that .15 is still on the low end over the course of the year; tonight’s line-up doesn’t promise improvement.
And now…
It’s Saturday morning, and you know what that means… it’s time for our Rampage Review!
Bryan Danielson kicked things off tonight, joining Tony to talk about Wednesday’s re-match with Daniel Garcia. Nice to mix things up by not always beginning with a match.
‘I will never willfully stop wrestling.’
Garcia & his HHH-Kangol interrupted, calling Danielson his ‘hero’, when he wins Weds. he’ll be not just the Dragon Slayer, but the best technical sports entertainer on the planet. BD put the youngster over but asked if he wanted to be the best technical sports entertainer or the best technical wrestler? Intense, crowd behind it, very good segment.
Sammy Guevara & Tay Melo vs Dante Martin & Skye Blue, AAA Mixed titles
Backstory: Stems from the guys’ singles match a couple of weeks ago
So apparently, Conti was Tay’s name from a previous marriage, explaining the change. Hell of a pop for Dante in his hometown.
JR, Schiavone & Excalibur on comms.
Starting quickly, Dante took Sammy down three times, struck and chopped with Sammy in the ropes but after whipping him across Tay tagged herself in. Leading to Skye Blue crossbody-ing her way in from the top: stinging slaps from both ladies, crucifix pin for two by Blue, step-up knee, another, enziguri, Sammy with the trip, pump kick from Tay.
And you know what that means! Ads.
Both guys tagged in, another double leg from Dante, duck under, dropkick, Sammy sent to the outside. Flipping his way over Tay, Martin struck with a tope suicida to Sammy. Flinging him back in, Tay grabbed Dante’s leg for about 9 years right in front of Knox, eventually leading to a crazy step-up Destroyer off Tay’s back. A jumping knee from Sammy followed, Tay struck Dante with a ddt, Blue responded with a hurracanrana off the top onto Sammy, but fell to the Tay-KO.
Breakneck, breathless opener before a receptive audience. AAA could do worse than book this for themselves.
WINNER: Sammy & Tay
Lucha Bros package: Death Triangle back next week; not done w Andrade
Parker Boudreaux vs Sonny Kiss
Backstory: None
Well, here comes NXT’s leftovers.
Brief package showing the Trustbusters getting together on a recent Dark. Crowd liked Kiss; didn’t care about Boudreaux. Didn’t last long, Boudreaux won easily. Trustbusters’ music has X-Factor vibes, not a good thing.
Of the many negatives HHH brings against AEW, one positive is that Tony Khan won’t be left to run around the sweet shop grabbing at whatever he wants regardless of how full he is, because presumably WWE won’t be cutting or underutilizing talent to the same degree any longer.
WINNER: Parker Boudreaux
Andrade was introducing Rush to Private Party, Kassidy got in the former’s face, they threw out a challenge to Swerve in Our Glory. This wasn’t a good segment, only later could you piece-together what happened.
Erick Redbeard & Danhausen(Beardhausen) vs Gunn Club
Backstory: Danhausen interrupted Billy haranguing his boys on Wed
Danhausen very over, loud ‘Ass Boys’ chants as Redbeard dominated the Boys early, sending both fleeing to ringside. Danhausen in, looking for the Curse but got punched by Austin.
Break time.
Scrambling for the tag, Danhausen got it, Redbeard running wild, flinging both Boys outside once more, pursuing them with a running crossbody, slingshot senton back inside and finally a spinning heel kick for a close 2.
With the Gunns attempting a double suplex, Redbeard reversed it, tagging in Danhausen as Billy Gunn low-bridged Redbeard, Fame-Asser by Austin to Danhausen. Squeak-by victory.
Afterwards, Stokely Hathaway again approached the Ass Boys after Billy’d chewed them out. Next Weds they’ve ‘got another match’. Didn’t say who against.
WINNER: Gunn Club
Tag champs w Lexi. Private Party made the challenge earlier. Lee dismissed them since he beat both by himself on his first night in. Swerve said they weren’t even ranked but accepted the challenge anyway. Wow, what challengers. Seems the tag titles are suffering from the focus on the trio’s belts.
Hook came out to talk to Tony, as did some dude named Zack Clayton, apparently from the Jersey Shore Reunion, which unfortunately isn’t taking place in a bloody, shark-filled pool. Hook wanted to fight; Clayton begged-off ‘til next week. FTW title on the line.
Orange Cassidy vs Ari Daivari
Backstory: Daivari tried to recruit OC, they & partners face-off in trios tourney
Daivari’s a very good promo. Orange started to say ‘Looks like there’s been enough talk…’ until Henry protested, taking over.
Yep, definite X-Factor vibes from that theme. It’s not as bad but then what is?
Both brought their entourages. Crowd were still hot. Very good all night.
Daivari asked Orange to lay down for him. As he went for the pin, Cassidy rolled away to the outside. Then all the way to the other. When it started, the action was quick: a series of standing switches, Orange leaped as Daivari ducked, dropkick, caught the boot, sent Ari to the buckle but was hung on the top rope via neckbreaker.
Locked in a sleeper as we returned, Cassidy backed Daivari into the ropes to free himself, a car-crash followed as the pair collided mid-ring. After throwing a chop with Cassidy perched up-top, the heel was pushed away, a diving cross body followed but Ari replied with a stiff kick then a running hanging-neck-breaker until a counter by Cassidy left both on the mat.
Rapid sequence.
Blasted with a thrust kick, Ari countered the Orange Punch, hitting a uranage for 2. Taking over, Cassidy hit an arm-drag, swinging ddt, to the top – diving ddt, 1,2, kickout. Shenanigans on the outside saw Cassidy blast Boudreaux with a dive but be crotched on the top as he re-entered, leading to the Iconoclasm for two slaps of the mat. Finally, after a series of ducks and counters, the Orange Punch brought the win.
Very, very good match. Non-stop action.
Post-match, Parker Boudreaux entered, as did Sonny Kiss, turning by low-blowing Cassidy, leaving him to be destroyed by Boudreaux. Who’s barely bigger than Orange, doesn’t have an impressive build; hard to see what the fuss is about.
WINNER: Orange Cassidy
Next Dynamite:
Andrade, Rush & Dragon Lee vs Bucks & Mystery Partner
Toni Storm vs KiLynn King
Bryan Danielson vs Daniel Garcia, 2 out of 3 falls
Gunn Club vs Varsity Blonds
Next Rampage:
Hook vs Zack Clayton, FTW title
Swerve in our Glory vs Private Party, AEW tag titles
Best Friends vs Trustbusters, Trios Tourney
Dynamite 24/8:
Death Triangle vs Will Ospreay & Aussie Open
Overall impressions
On paper, this looked a poor line-up. Two stars (OC & Sammy) and ten guys mostly ranging from ‘who?’ to ‘who cares?’ suggested another bad Rampage. Instead, tonight completed AEW’s best week of television for some time. Doubtless, the crowd helped a lot but the show was pacy with action to match and nothing bad to drag it down.
Since ancient times, people have been attracted by the mysterious nature of human sleep. Indeed, sometimes what appeared at night could predict or influence the future. There are many interpreters of dreams, each is good in its own way. “DreamApp” decided to combine for its readers what this or that reference can mean. Also on their website you can find a variety of dream symbols, fascinating articles and numerous reviews that confirm their competence in this area.
What can dreams tell?
Dreams convey messages from the unconscious and help you enter into a dialogue with it. According to Freud, they represent forbidden desires in symbolic form, allowing us to experience what we cannot get or do in reality. And as Jung believed, dreams help maintain mental balance. What are dreams made of? For 40% – from the impressions of the day, and the rest – from scenes associated with fears, anxieties, worries. There are dream plots common to all mankind. But the meaning of the same plot is unique for everyone.
Features of this mobile application
Huge symbol library
Each of these symbols is individually described by the industry’s greatest expert, Jesse Lyon, giving you the possible meaning and direction to improve your life.
Expert advice
The service offers you advice from experienced and qualified experts in the industry.
Interpretation with AI
The application analyzes the text using a special machine algorithm to interpret the given characters, all this is done with unconscious thinking. The result will amaze you!
The Importance of Sleep
Sleep deprivation affects the immune system. Simply put, the antiviral system simply does not have time to recover, thereby being oppressed. This makes us vulnerable to any infections. Also, the nervous system does not give signals to the body to fight the multiplying bacilli. She (the nervous system) would have to cope with the resulting stress from lack of sleep, where is there to treat us!
The nervous system directly depends on how you observe sleep patterns. If you look at what the cerebral cortex consists of, then we will see a huge number of neurons and nerve fibers that connect with each other and sometimes change these connections. The brain works even when we sleep, but in the “energy saving” mode, all processes slow down. Caught in our body, incl. brain, toxic substances are neutralized at night during sleep. If we don’t give enough rest time to the head, then the nerve cells become excited, work above the norm, the mood becomes anxious, aggressive, depressed, etc. The brain becomes incapable of labor activity, efficiency decreases.
When you dream – is it good or bad?
Previously, scientists considered dreams to be a useless by-product of sleep, but recent research refutes this opinion – dreams provide us with emotional help and positively affect brain function.
Conclusion
This application will turn out to be not just a toy for you for a few minutes, you will completely immerse yourself in the meaning of your dream. This is a great leisure and distraction from everyday tasks. Which greatly diversifies your day and will give positive emotions after reading an individual analysis of your dreams.
This was part of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Tournament. During the match, Natalya and Sonya Deville come to ringside and when the action spilled outside the ring, Shotzi attacked Natalya and Raquel attacked Sonya before turning their attention back to their match. It was Raquel with the powerbomb on Xia after Aliyah speared Shotzi out of the ring for the win.
Winners: Raquel Rodriguez & Aliyah
Karrion Kross talks and says must be nice for Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns as they are the chosen ones. He said they were cast out of paradise and disregarded like a broken toy to be forgotten about but they didn’t forget and waited for the right time to strike. Kross continued saying that now they are going to show them the new timeline because in the end, everyone pays the toll. Tick Tok.
Drew McIntyre is out next and says it’s an exciting time in WWE with a lot of new faces. Speaking of new faces, he addressed Karrion Kross who attacked him last week. Drew said he plans to do a lot of things, but his hands are full right now but when he is done, he will send him back to the dungeon Kross crawled out of.
Drew then went on to say Roman Reigns isn’t here and he wasn’t impressed with his last two matches with Brock Lesnar because it took Reigns and his family to beat Lesnar. Kross’ music hits and Scarlett came out and as Drew was distracted, he gets jumped by the Usos. After they beat down Drew they yelled at Scarlett and said they are going to beat down Kross for stepping up to the Tribal Chief.
Ivar VS. Kofi Kingston
As the Vikings were coming to the ring, Kofi Kingston attacked them with a kendo stick, but the Vikings rebounded and used their shields to stop the ambush and beat Kofi with the shields. They left Kofi laying and Ivar added a splash on the stage as the Vikings then walk away.
Winner: No Match
Back from break, Sami Zayn walked up and knocked on the Usos dressing room and as he started talking to them, Drew came flying in and beat all three of them and left them laying. Drew says he is tired of them getting involved in his business every week.
Brandon Scott & Trevor Irvin VS. Hit Row with B Fab
Hit Row destroys the local talent. Hit the Heavy Hitter on Scott for the win.
Winners: Hit Row
After the match we turn to Pat McAfee and Michael Cole. After Pat gets done saying how nice it is to have Hit Row back, Cole looked at him and said this week we morn the loss of a legend, Gene LeBell, who passed away this week. LeBell trained Roddy Piper and Ronda Rousey to name a few and was called the Grandfather of Grappling.
They are getting ready for the contract signing for the Smackdown Women’s championship match at Clash at the Castle. Ronda Rousey comes through the crowd and gets in the ring. She says she was suspended and fined a lot of money and dumped a duffle bag of money out in the ring. She said she doubled it because it won’t be the last time and being bad gets expensive. They send security out for Rousey.
Shayna Baszler meets her on the ramp and tells Rousey that’s not how we do things here and Ronda said something to her and walked away. Shayna heads to the ring for the contract signing.
After the signing, Shayna grabs Liv’s already injured arm and did more damage to it. As Shayna was going for another maneuver, Liv hooked Shayna by her head and was able to push her feet off the top rope and bulldogs Shayna through the table in the middle of the ring.
In the back, Sami Zayn is pacing and The Usos ask him where he ran off to. Zayn says he went to get security. Usos remind him to either step up or get left behind.
The Usos come out and told Drew to find a tag partner and come get this ass whoopin! Drew comes to the ring. And the bell rings with no partner for Drew.
The Usos VS. Drew McIntyre & Madcap Moss
As the Usos start beating down Drew, out comes Madcap Moss and Drew gets to his feet and they look at each other then knock the Usos over the top rope with clotheslines.
The Usos go for the 1D and Madcap Moss pulls Jey out of the ring, and they end up both going over the railing by the timekeeper’s area. Back inside the ring Jimmy and Drew are going at it and Jimmy gives him a superkick which knocks Drew to the ropes. He ducks and off the other side of ropes hits the Claymore for the win.
Winners: Drew McIntyre & Madcap Moss
After the match, Jey tried to attack Drew and Sami Zayn came in and Jey pulls him into the line for the Claymore.
Max Dupri is with the Maximum Male Models when the Los Lotharios come in and tells Dupri if you want this to really take off you will sign them. Max tells them they are not MMM material.
Gunther VS. Shinsuke Nakamura for the Intercontinental Championship
Gunther hits a powerbomb to pin Shinsuke to retain the championship
Winner and Still Intercontinental Champion: Gunther
Top Dolla, Ashante “Thee” Adonis, and even B-Fab made their return on Smackdown last night as Hit Row, nine months after they all got released within a few weeks of each other.
One particular member of the group, Isiah Scott, was obviously not there as he is now under contract with AEW.
Hit Row won a squash match on Smackdown and then each re-introduced themselves to the WWE audience. They were originally only on the main roster for a month before they were cut in one of the many rounds of WWE firings last year.
AJ “Top Dolla” Francis also worked with WWE on the A&E show Most Wanted Treasures but he is not returning to that role for the second season which is already filming.
The trio join Dakota Kai, Karrion Kross, and Dexter Lumis who were brought back by the new regime.
AEW will be doing a themed episode of Dynamite based on the upcoming Game of Thrones: House of Dragon television series which will debut on August 21 on HBO.
The August 17 Dynamite will be a collaboration with Warner Bros Discovery to promote the arrival of the series, just a few weeks after AEW integrated Shark Week into their programming at the request of WBD. While nothing has been revealed as to what kind of collab this will be, AEW used a shark cage hoisted above the ring with members of the JAS in it for the match between Jericho and Kingston a few weeks ago for the popular Shark Week.
“Since the Shark Week integration was such a great success, we’re working on another huge partnership that I’m very excited about in terms of creativity and a hugely prestigious IP that we’re being trusted to partner with,” AEW President Tony Khan told TV Insider.
“I believe it’s because we have shown we can do a good job with integrations and be easy and fun and collaborative and have a good audience that makes us good partners,” he added.
The House of Dragon Dynamite will be headlined by Bryan Danielson vs Daniel Garcia in a two-out-of-three falls match in what is being billed as the Dragon vs Dragon Slayer.

WWE presented Snoop Dogg with his own custom WWE title last night at the WrestleMania Launch Party at SoFi Stadium.
Presented to Dogg on stage by Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch, the gold, one-of-a-kind design was made specifically for him, including custom side plates.
“One of one, just like you Snoop and we expect to see you rocking that everywhere up to WrestleMania 39,” said Lynch and Snoop posed with the title above his head. Belair, Lynch, Snoop, and a few LA Lakers cheerleaders then danced on stage to end the segment. Prior to being gifted the title, Snoop Dogg presented both Belair and Lynch a Death Row Records pendant.
The popular artist is a huge WWE fan and has been involved on WWE television many times before, including at previous WrestleManias. He also recently showed up in AEW and was part of a match on Dynamite. He is the cousin of former WWE Raw, Smackdown and Women’s Tag Team champion Sasha Banks.

Although you can also check the presence of organization logos there, it is important to remember that these icons must undoubtedly be active. When you click on them, you go to the auditor’s website.
Fraudulent websites try to deceive customers by displaying similar logos. However, they are inactive, and clicking on them does not take you to the auditor’s resource.
Which companies check online casinos Canada reviews?
Several reputable auditors check games in land-based and best online casinos Canada reviews. Most of them cooperate with local market regulators, test software, and develop iGaming industry standards. Next, we will consider the most popular among them:
eCOGRA

The eCOGRA Lab fights against fraud in the iGaming industry, informs players about operators’ reliability, prevents underage users from accessing gambling entertainment, and checks individual user data’s security.
After successfully verifying a Canadian online casino, the laboratory issues an appropriate operator testing certificate, which contains the eCOGRA logo, confirming the honesty of the operator.
Gaming Laboratories International

iTech Labs offers a wide range of services for software providers and online casinos. The main areas include verification, audit of the RTP percentage, and analysis of the RNG output.
This laboratory evaluates the work of the RNG and certifies gambling establishments and sites.

BMM Testlabs
BMM Testlabs is one of the oldest testing laboratories. Institutions operate in many countries, including Australia, Canada, Spain, Austria, and Italy.
The company has been serving large chains of land-based casinos for many years. However, with the advent of online gambling, BMM Testlabs has expanded its range of services to focus on the iGaming industry. The site and software can test online sites for gambling both before launch and during operation.
The list of BMM Testlabs services includes checking RTP in slot machines, analyzing information, and testing RNG.

Timely payments through secure channels
Reliable games from trusted providers

PWInsider.com is reporting that AJ “Top Dolla” Francis and Ashante “Thee” Adonis, formerly part of the Hit Row group, are expected to be at Smackdown tonight and likely to be part of the broadcast.
The duo, along with Isiah “Swerve” Scott, were released from WWE in late November of last year, just a month after they were called to the main roster. The fourth member of the group, B-Fab, was released a few weeks before.
At this point, B-Fab is not listed as being part of the show so it’s likely she won’t be returning.
If they do indeed return, they would follow Dakota Kai, Karrion Kross, Scarlett, and Dexter Lumis as those who were fired over the last year and brought back by Paul Levesque.
Scott is obviously not going to be there as he is part of All Elite Wrestling now and is one half of the AEW World Tag Team champions with former fellow NXT star Keith Lee.
The Quake By The Lake Dynamite featuring a title match between Jon Moxley and Chris Jericho did 972,000 viewers this week, up 34,000 viewers from last week’s broadcast. The show did a 0.33 in the 18-49 demo, up 0.01 from last week and good enough for #1 spot on the top 50 cable chart for the night. (Ratings credit: Showbuzzdaily.com)
