Zoey Stark thanks the fans for their support: “Wow the love and support means more to me than you’ll ever know! What hurts more than my knee is knowing I wont be able to perform for all of you for a while. I LOVE what I do and I’m blessed to do this. As the saying goes, the comeback is greater than the setback. Love you guys.”

In what already sounds like a future episode of Dark Side of the Ring in the making, the remains of 1950’s wrestler Kimo Mahi were found in the Santa Fe National Forest by hikers. Kimo, real name Keeble Wofford Sr., appeared in movies like Twilight for the Gods and Sea Hunt while also working matches under names like Black Eagle and Red Hawk. He was last seen in 1992 when he went from Pueblo, CO to Albuquerque, NM for some sort of business meeting. DNA from Mahi’s daughter was used to positively identify the body.

Tay Melo is teasing that she’ll return at Double or Nothing this weekend. That’s more possible than Darby Allin, who is not expected to be back from Mount Everest in time. (FF)
