Yeah I just had a feeling they were affiliated like AAA is :p

Yeah, they are, just like Wrestle-1 is affiliated with TNA. Mock TNA all you want (no, seriously, go ahead; they deserve it after Sacrifice :P ), but at least they're providing some deserved international exposure to puroresu, especially with Seiya Sanada still the X Division Champion. Only other place you can see puroresu on American TV will be ROH in a few weeks time after the two PPVs they're doing with NJPW next month (ROH usually broadcasts their PPVs on their TV show spread out across two or three weeks with two or three matches on each episode); Global Wars on May 10th and War of the Worlds on May 17th.

 

Just looking through the cards now on ROH's site. Looks like Global Wars is gonna be a split show (like TNA and Wrestle-1's Outbreak event from March) with a couple of crossover matches in NJPW's half of the event...

...and Russo's sending TNA back downhill again. Spoilers for the next few weeks below...

 

A lot of major news came out of tonight's TNA Impact Wrestling television taping event in Orlando, Florida including three returns for the company, the debut of several new characters, and more. 

 
Former Aces & Eights member Knux made his return to Impact for the first time since the faction split up. He has been repackaged with a "carny" gimmick, along with his girlfriend Rebel, a character called Crazy Steve, a large masked man and two guys on stilts. 
 
Kenny King and Bobby Lashley also made their returns, scheduled for the 5/15 edition of Impact Wrestling. Both guys joined MVP in attacking Eric Young in the main event segment of that show. The new advertised main event for TNA Slammiversary is Eric Young vs. MVP for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship.
 
A new character named Bram made his debut tonight, and he will be appearing for the first time on the 5/8 episode. Bram is former NXT developmental star Kenneth Cameron, who wrestled as a part of the original Ascension tag team prior to his release. 
 
And while many expected Kazarian to be on his way out of TNA, he actually attended the television taping, working two matches on both the 5/8 and 5/15 editions of Impact Wrestling. His contract is set to expire soon, but at this time we have no new information about the state of his deal with the company.

Jesus, someone needs to tell Russo that authority figures don't all need to be heels. MVP was killing it as a face! Doesn't make any sense especially as he's still technically feuding with Dixie Carter, so where does that leave her? No bloody way will the fans buy a face turn from her; she's Vickie Guerrero with a southern twang.

WWE have had a somewhat clean out today of talent that haven't been used in a while and as their fellow countryman would says, "I'm afraid I've got some Bad News"

English Talents, Oliver Grey and Danny Burch, have both been released. While Welsh talent Mason Ryan (Known more for Nexus Pt II) has also been given the boot.

Its also bad news for the Guerreros, as Shaul has been released also. Shaul was best known for being the daugther of Vickie and the Legendary Eddie Guerrero

Jeez you'd think the women would wear some sort of protection thingy down there....

 

Btw, I'm back. Was offline for 2+ weeks, not that anyone noticed :|

 

Pretty much caught up with wrestling at this point though. Gaming, not so much.

    • MVS subscribers got the proper 26200.8655 Win11 25H2 ISO downloads as of 6/16/2026 avoiding this whole MCT fiasco by MS. I'll obtain the official 8655 MVS ISO download instead.
    • too bad the "backend" June 2026 ESD files are still at build 26200.8653 and not at the correct build 26200.8655 release. I'll avoid using the MCT for several weeks until late July 2026
    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.
