Update on WWE Possibly Settling with Mauro Ranallo

As noted, Dave Meltzer reported in the latest edition of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that it is believed that WWE is working towards some type of settlement with Mauro Ranallo, which would prevent Ranallo from speaking out publicly about the company after his contract expires in August of this year. Meltzer has since confirmed that WWE has initiated settlement talks with Mauro’s representatives.

News on Finn Balor’s Injury Status

As noted, Finn Balor suffered a concussion during his match with Jinder Mahal this week on WWE Raw, and Balor has subsequently been removed from this weekend’s WWE live events. Additionally, he was not at last night’s live event in Providence, but he is still scheduled for live events next week as of this writing. Balor is expected to be evaluated again after the weekend.

Below is a behind-the-scenes look at The New Day’s WrestleMania 33 entrance, which was inspired by the video game Final Fantasy:

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
