WWE FEATURING TNA ON THEIR WEBSITE, NAKAMURA'S MUSIC, DREAMER IN WWE & MORE

Searching in the serch section of WWE.com, if I write TNA, some results appear. The news are results of TNA Impact of 7 years ago. Why?

There was a time period where WWE's website had an "industry news" section that featured news culled from around the wrestling world, which even included news credited to PWInsider.com and other outlets. It was only maintained for a few months before the idea was discarded. You are just bringing up the old archives of that section.

Hello Mike, love the site! With the Royal Rumble being used to push someone to an automatic title shot at Mania, it is clear that creative (Vince) is using this years Rumble as a way to kill two birds with one stone by putting the title on the line in the Royal Rumble itself. How do you see this years Rumble playing out since the winner will be champion without a #1 contender? Do you see them putting the title on Lesnar and then build for Reigns to get his rematch at Mania? Since Reigns wouldn't have been pinned or forced to submit. Then giving Reigns the ultimate rub by defeating the unstoppable monster that WWE has created. Maybe my ignorance of the situation is showing, but this is the only way I can see it playing out since the WWE really doesn't have many people they can lean on with all the injuries to Rollins, Orton, Cena, and the fact they aren't ready to bring Bryan back. Having Reigns drop the title to Lesnar in the Rumble seems to be the only choice they have and still be able to push and build a legit title match at Mania... Also, considering Lesnar's stiff and physical style, do you see them forcing Lesnar to take a lighter style to keep the chances of Reigns from getting hurt and missing time? Thanks for your time!!

I really like the scenario that you laid out regarding Reigns challenging Lesnar to try and get his belt back, but with the injury to John Cena, the company pretty much blew up Wrestlemania plans. I don't see Lesnar working a lighter style for anyone. Don't discount Reigns' toughness.

Hey, so I have heard different pieces of possibly WWE buying the rights for the use of Nakamura's entrance song once he signs with them. Only wondering if you heard anything or not specially since he is going to become the face of WWE Network in Japan.

It's way too early to say Nakamura is going to be the face of anything since he's not even signed yet. I don't believe for a second that WWE would purchse the theme song when they have an entire team that creates their own original music.

All of you do a fantastic job providing news updates and so much more on a daily basis. I'm struggling a little bit at my job but when I get more money I will become an elite subscriber seems like a service well worth it. Recently I saw somewhere that you said tna would be returning to NYC possibly in March 2016. The last tna show I came out to was January of last year with lockdown and do you know when tna will be coming back to the manhattan center? Do you think those television tapings will still be in March? Those shows were fun and I would love to go back the crowds were very loud and fun. Thanks a lot and thanks for all the great work you put into the website look forward to your response soon!

We have heard that March will be the next domestic TNA TV tapings, but whether they take place in NYC or elsewhere is not confirmed yet.

Why would WWE put Tommy Dreamer on TV if he's not signed?

To help get the Wyatts over.
