WHATEVER HAPPENED TO DGUSA, FORMER ECW STAR AT WRESTLEMANIA, AJ LEE AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2015-04-09 10:00:00
I could have sworn I saw former ECW star Ricky Ortiz while I was at Wrestlemania weekend. Am I nuts?

You aren't nuts. He was there as he's dating someone who works for the company and was around the entire weekend.

What's going on with DGUSA at WWNLive? They haven't done a DGUSA branded show in such a long time. I'm just curious if you know why this is and why it's also taken them so long to release any new DGUSA shows on DVD?

Dragon Gate USA is likely done forever. After they finally spent the time and money to get the visas done and renewed for the Japanese talents, the schedules never worked so that they could actually do DGUSA shows. It's possible you'll see some talents come in and work under the EVOLVE banner, but for the most part, the DGUSA project is done.

As far as DVDs, I know WWNLive is working on finally getting those back out. They realize it's been way overdue.

Any update on WWE NXT running Philadelphia?

Nothing official yet. We know they had planned on running the former ECW Arena and lately there's been talk among the wrestlers that NXT might instead run Temple University. I would suspect something is going to be announced soon, as they have their schedule through the initial week that was scheduled announced.

What are the chances of AJ Lee going to TNA?

Right now? Non-existent.

Its a bit old but Why Vince McMahon wouldn't fired CM Punk at the first place when he dropped his biggest pipe bomb at live television??

WWE was well aware Punk was going to say something, although they didn't know what.
