Word going around at RAW was that Paul Bearer will indeed be the first name announced for the 2014 WWE Hall of Fame. It's said Bearer is a lock for next year.

There will be talk at WWE headquarters this week about whether or not The Undertaker should do the induction.

Taker never appears at the Hall of Fame to keep in character but there's a feeling that he should do the honors for Bearer for obvious reasons. Another name brought up for Bearer's induction is Michael "PS" Hayes.

To me, I think Undertaker would be the perfect choice. Surely it'd be ok to break kayfabe for that one moment. If they think otherwise, or Undertaker declines, I would have gone with Bruce Prichard (Brother Love) if he wasn't with TNA (for those who don't know, he's Senior Vice President of Programming and Talent Relations, so you could say he's TNA's John Laurinaitis, only without that annoying voice).

In what can't be a good sign for Ryback getting over in the feud with John Cena, word from RAW is that he got zero reaction when he came out after the main event on Monday's RAW to show that he was still in the building

CM Punk's official WWE television return has been up in the air recently, with WWE continuing to remove him from live events through June. However, the former WWE Champion is now being listed to appear on Monday Night Raw from the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta on May 27th.

This would give Punk enough time to build towards a program for the June WWE Payback pay-per-view in his home town of Chicago, but as of now he is still not being advertised for the event, or Monday Night Raw the week prior.

There is a lot of buzz lately in WWE that Bray Wyatt will be called up to the main roster very soon.

If he gets to keep his current gimmick and also bring the Wyatt family with him, then...

WWE recently applied for two new trademarks, which appear to be related: ?Crush Couture? and ?CC?. Both trademarks are for various types of merchandise. It?s unknown at this point whether Crush Couture will be a product line or a new WWE character.

Thoughts, everyone?

Huh, I never realised Alex Shelley was over in Japan. I bet a lot of people are still hoping for a Motor City Machine Guns reunion...

Speaking of upcoming shows, ROH Border Wars is this Saturday (as well as their first international ROH TV taping the next day). They've managed to bring back Paul London (who hasn't wrestled in ROH for ten years), so there's bound to be a couple of top-notch matches this weekend. They posted up one of his ROH matches to build up the hype...

At Border Wars, he's facing Davey Richards, and then on the TV taping, he's facing Michael Elgin. Here's the card...

ROH World Championship match

Jay Briscoe defends against Adam Cole

Pro Wrestling NOAH vs. Ring of Honor

Current GHC Jr. Heavyweight Champion Taiji Ishimori vs "Die Hard" Eddie Edwards

First Time Ever

"Intrepid Traveler" Paul London vs "American Wolf" Davey Richards

It was originally going to be Naomichi Marufuji (from Pro Wrestling NOAH) taking on Richards (as well as Elgin the next day), but he picked up a knee injury two weeks ago, so London was brought in as an almost last-minute replacement.

ROH World TV Championship

Matt Taven w/ Truth Martini defends against Mark Briscoe

I Quit Match

BJ Whitmer vs Rhett Titus

ROH vs S.C.U.M

"Unbreakable" Michael Elgin & Jay Lethal vs 2 S.C.U.M Members of Steve Corino's choosing

If S.C.U.M wins, Matt Hardy gets a shot at the ROH World title, and Steve Corino joins Kevin Kelly on commentary. Corino also added that if they get the title shot and lose that match, S.C.U.M will leave ROH.

Special Tag Team Challenge

Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander vs ACH & Tadarius Thomas

Dixie Carter has just announced that TNA IMPACT WRESTLING will be broadcast LIVE from Glasgow on Thursday January 30.

This will be TNA's first ever live show on Challenge TV in the UK and the first ever TV taping in the great country of Scotland by any international wrestling company.

Get your tickets now from the Ticket Shop pre-sale at http://facebook.com/tnawrestlinguk or on general sale from 9am tomorrow.

So that's almost nine months away. Depending on the cost, I might try and make it to that show. :p

    • Looks like many years since the request was made, a directory tree view finally may be added. https://github.com/files-community/Files/pull/18537
    • There's this from last year https://gist.github.com/threat...364659a8887841aa43deca4efd9 but nothing about a buffer overflow that MS somehow can't code against. No matter what, it makes sense to take a "protected by default" approach.
    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon by Taras Buria Files, one of the best third-party file managers for Windows 11 out there, has received a minor update to version 4.1.3. The latest release brings a few quality-of-life improvements and new features, including an easier way to calculate folder sizes, improved tags, a new OneDrive icon, and more. Starting with folder size, File now has a dedicated "View size" button for each folder if you have the "Calculate folder sizes" option turned off in settings. This improves performance and allows you to see each folder's size only when needed. Note that folder size calculation could take some time depending on the number of files and their "weight." Next, Files can now retain file selection when switching layouts. While this change is rather minor, it lets you keep selected objects highlighted whenever you need to switch, say, from a list to a thumbnail layout. If you use tags, you will be glad to know that Files 4.1.3 makes it easier to remove all tags. You can do that with one of the following methods: From the context menu — right-click an item, open the Tags submenu, and choose Remove tags. From the toolbar — when the Edit Tags button is pinned to the toolbar, the same option appears in its menu. From the Command Palette — open the Command Palette and search for Remove tags. You can also assign your own keyboard shortcut to it from Settings. The final visible change is the new OneDrive icon. Files now pulls the icon directly from the OneDrive executable, which means the app always has the up-to-date version. As for the fixes, developers resolved the following bugs: Fixed an issue with extracting tar archives. Fixed an issue where the Signatures page would occasionally cause a crash. Fixed an issue where the Play action wasn’t available when a single media file was selected. Fixed an issue where Smart Extract would extract archives to the wrong location when switching tabs. Fixed an issue where tag search excluded folders when grouping by type. Fixed an issue where thumbnails would sometimes fail to refresh after a file was modified. Fixed an issue where a BitLocker-locked drive wasn’t displayed. Developers also revealed what is coming in future updates. Soon, Files Preview will get a new Tree View sidebar, allowing you to display folders in an expandable hierarchy, which is a popular way to browse deeply nested folders. Expect the feature to arrive in the preview channel in upcoming updates. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
