Poking around, it looks like the articles are from about a week ago, and are basically that he's not a fan of people being afraid to express themselves for fear of being "canceled":

Today’s cancel culture, woke culture, division, etc — that really bugs me, In the spirit of that, you either succumb to that and be what other people want you to be, or you be yourself and be real … and that might make people upset and piss people off, and that’s OK.

Rhea's confirmed to be injured so she had no choice but to vacate the title and tying Bayley at 380 days.

It's for a few months so it'll be interesting to see who gets built up in that timeframe given how dominant Rhea is during her reign.

Get well soon Mami.

She's gonna literally put Liv into the ground when she gets back.

Then again, it looks like the Revenge Tour was a success.

Do you suppose this counts as a double-turn considering Rhea's been getting cheered whenever Judgment Day's not around and Liv's consistently been getting boos since Elimination Chamber?

Also Awesome Truth's Raw Tag Belts have been upgraded to the World Tag Team Championship Belts complete w/ old school design.

We finally have a new design for the tag team titles.

Link.

This probably means the tag belts at smackdown will also get a redesign.

What do guys think?

I know it's a provincial issue, but Plummer, the guy running the International Wrestling Cartel, is still doing the whole "big boss" persona who only wants "his guys" to win, and tries to rig matches to ensure it, and it rubs me the wrong way. I know McMahon didn't invent the "corrupt promotor" role, but it just feels so reminiscent of his behavior, and now that we know that so much of that persona, down to the slimey harassment and bullying, was the truth...

The matches and wrestlers are still good, though.

Matt Cardona suffered a torn pec that'll require surgery and there's no ETA on his recovery yet.

I’m not sure if Daniel’s shirt is good or bad and I love it.

I see Matthew is taking a page out of Black Snow’s book.

https://wrestlingheadlines.com/rossy-ogawas-new-promotion-marigold-expected-to-work-with-wwe-other-backstage-wwe-aew-notes/

Rossy Ogawa announces the formation of new Joshi Wrestling promotion Dream Star Fighting Marigold, or just Marigold for short. There are also reports that Marigold and WWE will have a working relationship so crossovers (since Triple H doesn't like the term forbidden door) are to be expected. Confirmed talent who're ex-Stardom are Giulia, Hayashishita Utami, Sakurai Mai, Mirai and Yuzuki. Too bad Iwatani Mayu is still in Stardom so her reuniting w/ Kairi Sane and IYO SKY is not yet in the cards.

It's funny how Jade and Bianca seem to be besties now, considering they first met while trying to outdo each other while Gorilla Press Slamming someone else.

As I so gleefully lampshaded almost four months ago.

[up] Veer and Sanga have also been released.

First female Chinese wrestler in your company and you do barely anything with her...

In other news, the Smack Down Tag Team Championship were renamed as the WWE Tag Team Championship along with a new design.

RAW

Imperium implodes as Kaiser turns on Vinci, Gunther returns and prioritises King of the Ring

And Becky is your World Women's Champion. Seen a lot of backlash over this from fans, hopefully the reign is brief and sets a Live turn and reign up soon

I suppose it was inevitable. Chuck made the right choice, but still, the people did not want the Best friends to break up.
