Hi, is there any news on Danhausen's contract now, if he goes to WWE, can he participate Royal Rumble 2026?
Barring some trickery, I don't think he would be able to do the 2026 Royal Rumble. I think it's a bad mark on AEW that they extended his contract due to injury time with absolutely no plans to use him, and with him wanting to be let go. What purpose does that serve? Just let the guy go. It's just a waste of money. If he doesn't want to be there and you don't want to use him, cut him loose. Him getting an AEW release is about the only way that could happen, which honestly isn't out of the realm of possibility.
Good morning, SRS. With Athena mentioning Thunder Rosa and Nyla Rose on RoH last night, can we hope that Nyla shows back up. As Nyla is funny as fuck and would provide a good foil for Athena. Thunder Rosa too, once her injuries heal up. Thank you.
I'm not even sure Nyla Rose knows why she's been off TV for a full year. Nobody I've spoken to knows either. She's not injured, she doesn't have any heat, everyone pretty well likes her. It's just one of those issues AEW has about benching someone and completely forgetting about them for a year at a time. I don't get it.
We've all been talking about a Chris Jericho retirement story next year, but does anyone know if Chris Jericho is actually looking to retire imminently? And if he didn't want to retire or have a retirement story, would that prevent WWE from bringing him back?
Chris Jericho has had no major injuries or surgeries, and wants to continue to wrestle. He's on his longest physical break in years, and has not told anyone that I've spoken to that he's looking to wrap things up. I can't speak to plans for WWE, but I do think that's the right place for him at this moment. I think the crowd will react the way WWE wants them to for this tour, assuming it happens.

Is Danhausen really that much different than Britt Baker from a “waste of money” standpoint? Is it really a “bad mark” vs. “business is business”?

I'm surprised that Fightful hasn't broken the news yet about a certain tag team possibly re-upping with AEW. Cause I know for a fact that they were backstage at Dynamite last night. I took a picture with one of them who we haven't seen in AEW since I believe January 22. Maybe they don't have confirmation yet.
