Speaking to Vice, Hangman Page says he wants to beat Jon Moxley at All In without Swerve Strickland’s help: “I made a promise to win the World Championship, and I made a promise not to need or accept help from him (Swerve) because I can’t – I couldn’t do that. He is someone who, to prove a point, broke into my home. He’s someone who threatened my family’s safety, who had nothing to do with any of it. You’re right, I found his childhood home. I burned it to ash, and I nearly killed him. I mean, I thought about him, I did. Once I had done that, I kind of realized that the catharsis that I thought it would give me didn’t come. And I thought it would hit instantly; I would feel relief. I’d feel like it was done, and it just didn’t come at all. I kind of realized that I had spent two years chasing the wrong thing, I guess. He said quite a while ago that he had put it behind him, and I kind of had to make that decision as well to put it behind me to focus on something worthwhile, because the past two years had not been worthwhile.”
Variety reveals that Jordynne Grace has joined the cast of the film Welcome to Paradise.

From NJPW: “After medical evaluation through the week, it has been determined that Hirooki Goto, who missed July 4’s New Japan Soul card as a result of an elbow injury sustained at Tanahashi Jam on June 29, will be unable to compete in the G1 Climax 35 tournament, and currently has no set date for a return. We apologize to fans looking forward to seeing Goto wrestle, and appreciate your understanding. As a result of Goto’s withdrawal from the tournament, his spot in A Block will be determined by a Last Chance Play-In Gauntlet Match on July 6 in Korakuen Hall. After defeats in each of their prior play-in matches, Tomohiro Ishii, Taichi, Satoshi Kojima and Chase Owens will compete in the gauntlet, wherein a random opening pairing will start, and after a wrestler is defeated, the next entrant will take their place until one remains. That winner will complete the G1 Climax 35 field.”
