I have a feature called Enhancement Stories that runs on Fightful. I speak to wrestlers about some of their experiences coming up and doing extra work for various companies.

One of them was talking to Dr. Britt Baker DMD about working against Nia Jax

The first I ever did was with @gangrel13. As a teen, I didn't realize he'd wrestled dozens of matches in WWF, much less a DECADE PRIOR against The Big Bossman!

A very unique one was with @JimmyJacobsX. A lot of people have heard the stories about him working with Eddie Guerrero in WWE, but he spoke to me about wrestling Nunzio -- in a Cruiserweight Title match!

Before she was in the Beautiful People or even signed to a WWE developmental deal, Angelina Love was taking some beatings from Trinity in TNA!

This one has a pretty hilarious story. A couple of years later, @JamesStormBrand would be a fixture in TNA. In 2000, Storm was competing on WCW Worldwide, and quite literally watching a friend fall on his face.

I have probably ten more of these in the works, that will be released at pertinent times.

The Shawn Michaels NXT Vengeance Day media call is underway shortly. Live streaming is prohibited, but I'll have notes in this thread.
I asked Shawn Michaels about protections in place for talent in NXT that could be impressionable or vulnerable. He said WWE can always do better, and the information in the lawsuit is unfortunate. He says there are some protections in place, but they will always try to do better in NXT, and it's something very important to him
.@JonAlba on behalf of Fightful asks Shawn Michaels if he's had conversations with talent or staff about the allegations in the lawsuit. He says that everyone is clearly aware of it. The situation sucks, but they take it very seriously and are aware that NXT is full of impressionable talent. He says NXT urges talent to be honest with them if they need help or if someone tries to take advantage of them.

He says he thinks coming off of Royal Rumble that a lot of talent are excited for the future, despite the situation.

We're on the Tony Khan media briefing. We'll have notes here, as well as audio up after
Tony Khan says that injuries and returns led to the AEW All Out card being announced much later than usual. He got the word that Danielson would be cleared the day of the ROH PPV.
The working plan was for Claudio Castagnoli to come in around the ROH PPV. Bryan Danielson's injury caused him to appear in AEW earlier.
