Tony Khan should be inducted into the Carny Hall of Fame for showing to the NFL Draft in a neck brace and I mean that as HIGHEST praise.

Yeah, I just heard about that as well.
And myself and my bro were wondering if he'd do it as well, and sure enough, today we found out about it.
Commitment. Thy name is
Tony Khan in a neck brace during the NFL Draft was really something you'd see in the Golden Age of Kayfabe.
And it is fun.
Before the only things catching my interest in AEW were the women's division, any match w/ by Penta and the BCC but now The Elite taking over is also starting to catch my interest.

The key thing is everyone was in on the joke and you could tell a whole bunch of the NFL talking heads were giddy to play along.

Smackdown gets/keeps: Bianca Belair, Carmelo Hayes, Randy Orton, Nia Jax, LA Knight, The Bloodline, AJ Styles, Andrade
Raw gets/keeps: Jey Uso, Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, Liv Morgan, Ricochet, Sheamus, Alpha Academy, Kiana James
Can't read those spoilers because I haven't watched it yet. The channel I usually watch it on pre-empted it with Hockey.
Fortunately, I just remembered that Smackdown is still airing on Fox and I can catch the second airing there. Phew.

TK. Hire him now!
Darby got hit by a bus and received a broken nose.
I’m convinced that he’s in a Final Destination movie and Death is mad that Darbs keeps avoiding him.

Help me. I can't get it out of my head.The guy found some humor in his predicament.
Burning love!I actually wanted Maxine to win that.
You don't often get that kind of Karma for heels in Wrestling when they basically create someone worse than them.

Help me. I can't get it out of my head.Several NXT talents were released yesterday.
-Ezekiel Balogun.
-Julian Baldi.
-Trey Bearhill.
-Emmamaria Diaz, who was showcased on WWE Roku Channel series WWE: Next Gen.
-Valentina Feroz.
-Drew Gulak.
-Keyshawn Leflore, who was showcased on WWE Roku Channel series WWE: Next Gen.
-Darrell Mason.
-Vlad Pavlenko.
-Kiyah Saint.
On one hand, Drew Gulak getting released wasn't really surprising given he's not really doing much in the roster. On the other hand, wouldn't be surprised if Ronda Rousey's accusing him of pulling on her sweatpants' drawstring had something to do w/ his being released.
Meanwhile WWE Backlash spoilers:
Bloodline defeats RKO after it devolved into an official street fight. Tanga Loa makes his debut and the French fans were singing to Randy Orton's "Voices" entrance song while Solo gets "We want Roman!" chants rained on him.
Bayley retains her WWE Women's Championship vs Naomi & Tiffany Stratton.
El Campion Damian Priest retains his World Heavyweight Championship vs Jey Uso via Judgment Day interference. Damian does stop Finn & co from beating up on Jey even further post match.
Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill beat Kabuki Warriors to become WWE Women's Tag Team Champions. They really need a Raw Women's Tag Championship.
Cody Rhodes retains his Undisputed WWE Championship vs AJ Styles.
Also Wrestlemania 41 will be held in Las Vegas.

We’re getting Ospreay vs Roddy at Double or Nothing. Pardon my French but that match is going to FUCK.
