00:00 Hello and welcome to the WrestleTalk News, I'm Luke Owen and this is wrestling news.

00:11 To paraphrase the late and great Sinead O'Connor, it's been several hours and five hundred

00:16 and thirty days since Bray Wyatt was last seen on WWE TV.

00:22 Wyatt was released from WWE in July of 2022, having not appeared on TV since WrestleMania

00:28 37. There was lots of rumours and speculation about his wrestling career and future - he

00:32 was even developing a movie described as "Ichi the Killer meets Xanadu" - but instead he

00:37 returned to WWE in October of last year as part of Triple H's big reset of the company

00:44 which saw lots of previously released wrestlers return to the fold.

00:47 Wyatt was given several weeks of teasing vignettes that caught the imagination of wrestling fans,

00:52 and his actual return at Extreme Rules was described by our own Oliver Davis as one of

00:57 the coolest wrestling things he's ever seen.

01:01 Sadly, the bloom came off the rose early on, as fans got impatient with the lack of in-ring

01:06 action and story progression in his feud with LA Knight - with Wyatt's only match in WWE

01:11 since coming back being the sponsored Mountain Dew Lights Out match at this year's Royal

01:16 Rumble which only went five minutes and earned three quarters of a star in the Wrestling

01:22 Observer Newsletter. He then set up a program with Bobby Lashley to head into WrestleMania

01:26 after Bobbles beat Brock Lesnar at Elimination Chamber - even bringing back the Muscle Man

01:30 dance from his Firefly Funhouse days. But then that program was dropped, Bray disappeared

01:35 from TV, and Bobby instead won the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal on Smackdown with

01:40 no actual WrestleMania match.

01:44 According to Fightful Select, the creative plans for Wyatt were for him to start a new

01:47 faction that would have included the also-returning Bo Dallas who was appearing on TV as Uncle

01:52 Howdy, Alexa Bliss who was being influenced by Bray in some of her segments, and the returning

01:57 Eric Young. With Wyatt's health issues keeping him off TV, Bliss going on maternity leave,

02:01 and Young quitting WWE before he'd even return because he didn't want to work under

02:05 Vince McMahon, those plans were all dropped.

02:09 It was reported that Wyatt was dealing with an injury. Those reports then became that

02:13 Wyatt was dealing with a health issue that was keeping him from being in the ring. And

02:17 now we've got even more details about this from Fightful Select, and some of them are

02:21 quite scary.

02:23 Sean Ross Sapp reports that the illness that Wyatt was battling with was both career and

02:28 life threatening, but thankfully note that he has improved significantly. This is obviously

02:33 tremendous news from a human perspective.

02:36 And from a wrestling fan perspective, it's also exciting news as Fightful Select add

02:41 that he is now closer to being cleared after nearly six months off TV.

02:46 SRS writes, "Wyatt has battled an illness that we won't disclose and the company and

02:51 Wyatt have been taking extra precautions to make sure that his long-term health is accounted

02:56 for."

02:57 Now Wyatt isn't cleared for a return yet, but this is the closest we've been to an

03:01 update since he left our TV screens in February. And you can tell that his return is closer

03:06 now more than ever, as Fightful Select report that creative ideas are being presented to

03:12 Bray Wyatt - with some ideas even indicating that a September return could be on the cards

03:18 if he gets cleared in time.

03:20 As always we here at WrestleTalk wish a speedy recovery to Bray Wyatt, but what would you

03:24 like to see Bray Wyatt do in his WWE return? Let me know in the comments down below.

03:30 And speaking of wrestling returns, and Ricochet has provided somewhat of an update on his

03:33 tag team partner Braun Strowman's return to the ring.

03:37 Do you, like most people, think that the WrestleTalk News presenters are the most attractive people

03:42 on planet Earth? Do you, like some other people, think that the WrestleTalk presenters could

03:46 be the most attractive people on planet Earth if only they could remove all of their facial

03:51 features? Well do we have the shirt for you. It's our brand new WrestleTalk News Presenter

03:56 Faces Shirt, complete with no facial features. Head over to WrestleShop.com using the link

04:02 in the description below to get yours, and become the world's coolest person with the

04:06 world's coolest people on your shirt.

04:08 Strowman's last WWE match was in May, when he teamed with Ricochet to beat the then-heel

04:13 Alpha Academy in just over two minutes. It was reported that he was dealing with a neck

04:18 injury that would require surgery. Speaking with Ten Count Media, Ricochet told Steve

04:22 Fall that he misses his tag partner and can't wait to get him back, and noted, "He's

04:28 recuperating. He's doing fine. I know he's ready to get back. I can only imagine he's

04:33 ready to get back."

04:34 I know that's not too much of an update as there's no reported time frame, but we

04:38 at WrestleTalk just wanted to wish the big man a speedy recovery.

04:41 On to, let's say, boring matters now as it's been revealed that it will sit on the

04:46 Board of Directors for the new TKO Company, which will merge UFC and WWE under the same

04:52 umbrella. No wait, come back, this could be interesting.

04:54 Look, look, I know, I get it, the Board of Directors sounds boring, but it is an interesting

05:00 part of business. Lest we forget that Vince McMahon's return to WWE was denied by the

05:06 Board of Directors initially, until he replaced that Board of Directors with a Board of Directors

05:11 that would let him come back. It's interesting, I promise. And the TKO Board is made up of

05:15 five people from WWE and six people from Endeavor, and four of those five names have now been

05:21 revealed - with Vince McMahon, Nick Khan, Stephen R. Coonan and Nancy R. Tellman making

05:27 up the Fatal Four Way.

05:28 McMahon, Khan and Coonan are already on the WWE Board of Directors, while Tellman is a

05:33 brand new choice. Interestingly, two of the names McMahon brought back onto the board

05:38 to bring him back - Michelle Wilson and George Barrios - are not listed. And neither is Triple

05:43 H, who also currently sits on the WWE Board of Directors. If Trips is not named as the

05:50 fifth person, that would mean he will have lost a huge position of power in this new

05:56 company.

05:57 And given how Barrios and Wilson were faithful to Vince in getting him back into WWE so he

06:01 could retake control and sell it, one would presume that one of them would be placed ahead

06:06 of his son-in-law. And Sean Ross Sapp has noted via Twitter, "Triple H will no longer

06:12 serve on the board for WWE after the merger."

06:16 Now, he'll still one would assume retain his position as head of creative, but losing

06:21 this level of power could mean that nothing is for sure these days. See, told you it would

06:28 be interesting.

06:29 And speaking of interesting business business business things, let's file this one under

06:33 "to keep an eye on". You see, there's been this ongoing antitrust lawsuit filed

06:39 against UFC over the pay of its fighters. While boxing providers will pay boxers above

06:43 50% of event revenue, UFC only paid its fighters between 2010 and 2017 around 20%. This case

06:51 has been ongoing since it was first filed in 2014, and it's now been determined by

06:55 a Nevada judge that it can continue. The case is seeking damages of between $811 million

07:02 and $1.6 billion. UFC's lawyer William Isaacson called the case "legally and factually

07:09 meritless". Factually meritless, name of your next AEW Dynamite special.

07:14 But how does all of this tie into the WWE and UFC merger? Well, Dave Meltzer noted on

07:20 Wrestling Observer Radio that abuse of your Monopoly powers to keep salaries down could

07:25 be grounds for a similar case to be filed against WWE - especially as they've been

07:31 posting several record gates and PPV numbers. But that's not our only story about Vince

07:37 McMahon possibly being angry about something, because our next story is something he was

07:42 genuinely angry about.

07:44 Younger viewers might not recall a time when Vince McMahon seemed to think it was weird

07:48 that Lana - now known as CJ Perry - was dating Rusev, now going by Miro in AEW. And this

07:54 was quite clear on TV as Vince kept booking Lana in storylines where she was "attracted

07:59 to other people" and "wanted to date other people" and "want to marry other people"

08:04 instead of, you know, her husband Rusev. Most famously in 2019 when Rusev found himself

08:09 in a soap opera three-way romance angle with Bobby Lashley which led to Bobbles marrying

08:14 Lana on TV.

08:15 But back in 2015, Rusev was in a different romance storyline as Lana got the hots for

08:21 Dolph Ziggler while Rusev was partnered with Summer Rae. The story came to an abrupt end

08:25 however with Lana and Summer never getting their match, and there was never a mixed tag

08:29 and the singles match between Rusev and Ziggler ended in a lame double countout at Summerslam

08:34 2015. Rusev did propose to Summer Rae, but that was about all she wrote. And the reason

08:41 the storyline fell apart was because the real-life relationship between Miro and Perry was made

08:46 public when it was leaked to TMZ.

08:49 And speaking with Chris Van Vliet, Summer Rae talked about how the storyline was "mysteriously"

08:54 leaked to TMZ. Gee, I wonder who might have leaked it? And how it really angered Vince

09:01 McMahon because he didn't want to drop the storyline as it was one of his favourites

09:06 at that point of the WWE creative process. Rae found out at a show in her hometown of

09:12 Chicago that she was no longer booked in that storyline and would instead just be wrestling

09:17 on main event. Rae was told by someone in creative that the story on TMZ "killed the

09:23 angle" and reminded her, "No one is bigger than WWE." That's a big thing for Vince,

09:30 and John Cena would always talk about that. Like, no one's bigger than WWE, and they

09:36 don't want you to think that either.

09:39 Summer also talks about writing the Rusev breakup promo with Jimmy Jacobs and how Miro

09:43 tried to get several lines of it changed because he didn't like them, so you should check

09:46 out the whole interview because it's really interesting and because Chris is an awesome

09:50 guy. Hi Chris, miss you bud, hope we get to chat soon.

09:53 And speaking of Vinny Mac, last year's Survivor Series saw the main roster debut of WarGames

09:58 - an old WCW concept that Triple H brought back for NXT - but was never put on a major

10:03 WWE pay-per-view as Vince reportedly never liked the match. Well this year's SummerSlam

10:09 has been announced for the 25th of November, but there's no word yet on if this will

10:13 be another WarGames show. This prompted a fan to ask Dave Meltzer on Twitter if it was

10:17 happening this year or not, to which Dave responded, "I don't know, but I do know

10:21 talent that think so."

10:23 So that's all from me today, we're on the countdown to AEW's All In, so why not check

10:27 out my 30 minute conversation with Ain't He Great Jeff Jarrett about the show and its

10:32 expectations, while I get some sage like advice from British wrestling legend Kendo Nagasaki.
