Jey Uso

In this interview Jey Uso says he’d love to go toe to toe with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson on the mic: “I want to get in there. I would like to go toe-to-toe in a promo with him. I know The Rock is good like that but I feel like I’m new school with mine, I’m really in it. I’m really out there like that. Rock is very believable. He can be entertaining and all that, but I feel like I can bring some different kind of emotions from The Rock – family always hit different. I didn’t know I could do it with Roman, with my brothers, so I would like to test those waters.”

Independent wrestler Vince Steele passed away on Sunday at 39 years old. It’s unclear what happened at this point other than a “medical emergency” before he was scheduled to compete in a four way with Jeff Skywalker, Max Capacity, and Benny Blanco in Ridgefield Park, NJ. Steele had been a regular of the independent scene since 2004. CCW released this statement: “We are heartbroken to learn about the passing of ‘The Jurassic Juggernaut’ Vince Steele. Vince’s matches in CCW are legendary. From his long-standing feud and later partnership with Cha Cha Charlie to his battles with The South American Alliance and Vinicious in the early days of Bash At The Brew. There was no one quite like Vince. Our thoughts are with his family, his friends, and his fans. Rest In Peace, big man. You will forever be missed.” (PWI)

Congratulations to former TNA star Ace Romero on his weight loss journey, having dropped 200 pounds in the last year. I’m happy for him and wish him the best!
