there any news on the Butcher, Blade, and Bunny?
I haven't heard anything about The Butcher in quite a while. He lost to Gabe Kidd on Collision in February, and I haven't heard about him since then. The Blade has been sidelined for well over a year with a back fusion surgery. There haven't been a lot of wrestlers to come back from that, but he's a genetic freak. Bunny has been out of AEW for quite some time and appeared for TNA recently.
Hey Sean, any idea what’s next in regard to the WWE/AAA?
Getting things structured the way WWE wants with AAA, and deciding what talent will be featured more, especially at it relates to who will transition well to United States television. Then I'd imagine WWE will get involved in rights fee deals and establishing English-language commentary.
SRS, during the MITB review you mentioned LA Knights booking and how the company sees him.. the pop for him for his KOTR match and promo was still over… what’s his ceiling? Can he get to the top?
This is purely my opinion, and a hunch, but here's what I think -- I don't believe he was ever a plan as one of their top, top guys. Then he did what he always does -- he got over, proved himself to be massively popular, and not just a fad. I think that fans will get behind him even more, and eventually he'll be factored into a top program again, even if it takes until next year.

So we probably won’t get a WWE-AAA show for at least a year?
