I sweat Nikki Roxx has been doing curses on Impact since she was given the Voodoo gimmick. This is just bad luck a this point

Ethan Page is done with Impact, and was not happy with how his match at Hard To Kill was edited:

I’m going to take a full blown break from social media. I’ll be staying active on my personal Patreon as much as I can & probably in this group too cuz I love the fig life & u guys. Xoxox. But man .... last night sucked. I’m so embarrassed with how IMPACT! lazily edited that segment last night & forced it to be a joke. I felt the thought of the same guys fighting each other was comedy enough & the more serious we took it the better the reaction would be. But cuz I left the company, they lied to my face & just did what they wanted the whole time. I’m sorry if any of my fans paid for that PPV & felt cheated. I honestly feel the free version I gave away was made with more love, care & attention to detail. Sadly I had no control over the creative or the final product & the editor refused to send it to me beforehand .... so I saw it live with you guys & was surrounded by family. All scratching their heads at that high school project level delivery on a PPV. I pray ppl know I didn't edit that hot garbage. I actually begged IMPACT! Not to even have Karate man on tv. I only wanted it for my YouTube channel. But ... we don’t write the shows. We just get the scripts & do our best. Idk what else to say. Breaks my heart this company refuses to respect its talent or it’s fan base on a regular basis. I tried. Oh well! Life goes on. That door is closed. Now let’s focus on what’s next. Hope you’re all well. I love all of you for supporting me & helping promote my projects. Because without you guys, karate man wouldn’t have been anything haha. I’m gonna just focus on the good that came of him for my social media & my personal channels. He’s gone now & May he live on in GOOD videos edited by the person who created him. Not stolen by a greedy company trying to capitalize on someone else’s hard work & creativity. Sorry if this comes off so negative. I know I’m usually a positive light for my fans ... but today, I need to just be honest. I was lied to. I was hurt. I was disrespected. And I need a break from it all."

Love Julian

He was done back in December, if he really didn't want them using Karate Man, he could had just left, but he wanted to get his meme gimmick over. As much as Impact would want Karate Man, i'm sure that if Page have asked for one last North match, he'd would have gotten it.

Anyway, here's my and other thoughts I've seen on Twitter. Spoiler, most people seem to believe this is Page saving his ass after watching the crap he made

can't imagine this affects RAW, but it could totally mean something for NXT going forward

Lance Storm just used the following comparison, which I thought was brilliant. A great match without a great story-, either in the match itself or going into it (i.e. something to make you care about the outcome) is like porn as compared to romance.

Not going to lie... this would be A LOT more exciting to me if Conrad wasn't involved. How was Rob Naylor not available for this?

thought the same thing. Conrad being the person behind Starrcast, I kinda want to hope that they will talk more about indie promotions, but realistically, it's gonna be 70% WWE + 29% AEW + 1% Hero namedropping NOAH.

I just think Conrad is... if not a bullsh*tter then he is someone who is essentially shooting angles. His stuff never feels like he's trying to inform so much as it does that he's giving Bischoff and Prichard something to attack newsletters and/or fans about.

Stephanie McMahon told TV Insider about WWE’s plans for WrestleMania to go back to being a one-night event after this year: “We want to maximize the value. The two nights are unique to the times. [We have plans] to go back to one night for future WrestleMania events, but of course we will see what happens this year. We want to deliver the best possible value we can for our fans who are hopefully able to attend and for those watching all around the world.”

During an appearance on the Sports Illustrated Media Podcast, Roman Reigns responded to The Undertaker’s comments where Undertaker claimed that today’s WWE product and wrestlers are “a little soft.” Reigns ended his response by saying that he thinks “it was just like a retired guy trying to sound gangster."

didn't even know he was free from the fed

That is certainly newsworthy.

He's in a weird place because while on the one hand he feels like an established name jumping, he's also someone that I think most fans have no desire to see in the ring anymore. It feels like they should use him in some sort of on-air role, but I have no idea what that role should be.

fetching the article right now, but he will be doing commentary on the new monday show on youtube and some in-ring stuff. I can't imagine it will be a lot of in-ring, I have no idea what shape he's in. Sounds like he may be used as a producer too

He seems like he could be good at commentary.
