Sami Zayn is currently out injured with a shoulder issue. That's why he didn't work the NXT events over the weekend.

Speaking of NXT, it says a lot that WWE saved all the promotional videos for Triple H's induction into the International Sports Hall of Fame for the NXT broadcast this week. That show really showed how far WWE wants the brand to go and I expect we're going to see a lot of changes and evolutions over the next few months with it. As Triple H said on NXT this week, it's no longer just a developmental brand.

As we mentioned a few days ago in the Elite section of PWInsider, the word is that long-time ROH star Jimmy Jacobs has come to terms to come into WWE to work in a creative capacity. Jacobs has been at a lot of WWE TVs in something of a tryout in recent months and is expected to officially start sometime in April.

Here is the official WWE Hall of Fame video for Tatsumi Fujinami. I am beyond excited to see he's going in:

If anyone is coming into California for Wrestlemania 31, a friend of mine is no longer attending due to a family issue. If you are interested in buying his two tickets (200 level) for face value, email me and I'll put you in touch. He has physical tickets and will be happy to overnight them to anyone who wants them.

The Wrestlemania store next week will have a lot of exclusive merchandise devoted to the WWE Hall of Fame class, Californa-centic Mania shirts and shirts specifically based on the top Mania matches. Artist Rob Schamberger will also be doing live painting the entire weekend.

The advertised main event for the final WWE event at the Nassau Coliseum on 5/25 is John Cena & Roman Reigns & Randy Orton vs. Seth Rollins & Big Show & Rusev in a six man tag.

Tickets for the 5/24 return to the Westchester County Center in White Plain, NY will go on sale this weekend.

Sheamus is signing this weekend at the Winnipeg World of Wheels event on 3/20.

Roman Reigns and AJ Lee will be signing the new "WWE Ultimate Guide" book on Friday 3/27 at the Barnes & Noble on Stevens Creek Blvd in San Jose, CA for the first 400 fans.
