WWE Draft
WWE / NXT producer Ryan Katz posted the following comments to his Facebook account following last night’s WWE Draft:
Can’t really sleep right now. Everyone can say wrestling is scripted or the dreaded fake, but tonight couldn’t have been more real. So many people I know whose lives were changed forever. The call ups. The commentary changes. The new open spots in NxT for people to grab. The landscape has changed in very real ways, and as always here, the work never ends, and in fact, it’s time to step it up again.
The emotion was real. The suspense, real. The anticipation, real. The passion, real. Desire, real.
The bittersweet feeling that I’ll no longer see my friends on a day to day basis because their dreams are coming true…REAL.
What a night! Crazy.

Jonathan Coachman
ESPN posted the following video featuring Jonathan Coachman appearing on ESPN First Take to discuss the recent news of a concussion related lawsuit against WWE by a large number of former talents.
Coachman talks about his own experiences with concussions and his relationship with Vince McMahon, then says he does not like how people blame Vince for their issues. He says Vince paid them for years and has still helped them out, and in response they sue WWE and blame the company for not taking care of them.
