Hector Garza who became one of the biggest lucha libre crossover stars of the late 90?s died today at the age of 43 just 17 days short of his 44th birthday due to complications from lung cancer which has been battling since last year. More on this in tomorrow?s lucha report but a very sad day in the world of wrestling.

According to SuperLuchas.net, WWE has officially signed top independent wrestler Samuray Del Sol, and he is expected to report to NXT in the very near future.

This news comes off the heels of reports that other top indy talents, including Mike Bennett, Shaun Ricker and Sami Callihan, are currently undergoing medical evaluations to eventually sign WWE deals.

Blimey, looks like WWE is starting to clear out the indies. Maybe they should revive the cruiserweight division (and title) to compete with TNA's X Division, then go to Mexico and scout out more luchadores (if they can't give Sin Cara a great match, then there's no hope for him :p ).

WWE will have all the top Indy talents soon, ROH will survive but I think others may start to suffer

Yeah, there's a few ROH wrestlers that I reckon WWE won't dare touch, like the Briscoe Brothers, Kevin Steen, Truth Martini, and maybe MsChif.

I would though love to see Briscoe's in WWE and Steen but their attitude and persona is not PG

Slammiversary XI is this weekend. Here's the card...

"The Icon" Sting vs. Bully Ray © for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship - No Holds Barred - If Sting loses, he will never compete for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship again.

Chavo Guerrero & Hernandez © vs. "Bad Influence" Christopher Daniels & Kazarian vs. Austin Aries & Bobby Roode vs. "The Cowboy" James Storm & Gunner for the TNA Tag Team Championship.

Devon © vs. Joseph Park for the TNA Television Championship.

Kenny King © vs. Chris Sabin vs. Suicide for the TNA X-Division Championship - Ultimate X match.

Kurt Angle vs. AJ Styles

Taryn Terrell vs. Gail Kim - Last Knockout Standing match.

Jay Bradley vs. Sam Shaw - Final match of the "Gut Check", winner gets a spot in the 2013 Bound for Glory Series.

Has any of the big promotions ever done a Last Woman Standing match before? I see a couple of indy promotions (if Dory Funk's promotion is to be believed, the first ever one was only last year), but nothing from the major leagues, and not even over in Japan.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By Skyfrog · Posted

      Age 16, old enough to get a full-time job, your own bank account, a passport, get married, even join the military and go to war. But talking to your friends on the internet? Oh hell no!

      I remember when all games had demos; it was a normal thing, not a limited time promotion.
    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.
