Does this mean Paige *might* be coming back to WWE?  If so, WOW, that would be a shocker.

Okay, article says Bayley injured her shoulder on RAW Monday, but due to swelling, cannot tell what the damage is until the following Monday.  Shoot or Work?

While under contract to a company that owned and paid for their output...

And it still seems to be working.

 

A deal was reportedly finalised to use the gimmick, but Anthem then turned around and made ridiculous demands which they surely knew the Hardys would never agree to.

Quote

Both sides came to terms on an agreement, sources say, with the Hardys paying $10,000 to $15,000 for the rights to the trademark. The deal would have included a non-disparagement clause, which Matt’s wife, Reby, mentioned on Twitter. A $1,000 fine would have been levied for the first offense, and then $5,000 penalties would have been enforced thereafter. The Hardys were even willing to sign off on a press release, publicly ending the ordeal on good terms. Yet Anthem then wanted 50 percent of all Hardy revenue, including Jeff Hardy’s art and music, which was viewed by the Hardys as a monumental heist and money-grab.

[...]

At no point did WWE state it was not involved in the “Broken” storyline, but they did not state they had no interest in the legal proceedings. The Hardys may also have a legal edge in their pending lawsuit against Anthem. Impact did not pay for any of the “Broken” shoots on the Hardy compound, nor did Impact ever pay rent for filming an entire episode of Impact on-location on Matt Hardy’s property. Reby has tweeted that there were never any child labor laws signed when her son, Maxel, appeared on Impact television, nor was her father, who played the role of Senor Benjamin, ever paid for his appearances. GFW/Impact films their show at Universal Studios in Orlando, and an unfavorable ruling in the court room could also lead to negative consequences with Universal, up to and including removal from the premises.

Just caught up with the last two chapters of PROGRESS and I'll just leave the ending of the latest one here: https://streamable.com/dnxw2 (probably the biggest pop ever at one of their Electric Ballroom shows)

Very possibly the most pathetic and disturbing thing I have seen in a while.
