Any idea when the PWG Battle of Los Angeles will be on DVD?

All three nights of the Battle of Los Angeles are expected to ship by 10/7 from www.highspots.com.  If you are looking to watch last year's tournament as you anxiously await the 2016 edition, it is now streaming at www.highspotswrestlingnetwork.com.

Where is Paul London hiding?  I am shocked he wasn't brought in for the CWC!

London didn't exactly love his time in WWE, but even if he wanted to go to CWC, he's currently under contract working for Lucha Underground as an agent.

One of the dumbest things that WWE has done recently is introduced the new LED enhanced ring posts. The wrestlers have to be careful not to break them and they can no longer be used in a running a shoulder into the ring posts move. Why make a part of the ring a no touch zone?

I don't mind the LED ringposts and it doesn't appear that WWE is going to stop using them for spots.  I wouldn't say it was the dumbest.

Why wouldn't WWE actually show the Cruiserweight champion on Raw?

Unless Brian Kendrick is going to win the Cruiserweight championship on Sunday, I don't have any good reason as to why TJ Perkins was there but not used, especially since they were rolling out the division for the masses.  I don't understand the mindset at all.

Where does the Taz Show take place?

Taz is in studio in New York City for CBS Radio for the Taz Show.

So, I am watching old WCW on the WWE Network.  Can you explain to me WHY Robocop appeared at Capital Combat?  Was he in storylines?  Why did they subject the great Gordon Solie to silly vignettes?  WHY?

The appearance was a promotional appearance to help promote the Robocop 2 film, which was about to be released theatrically.  He appeared on the PPV and a few commercials with Sting but that was it.  It was beyond silly.
