Hi Sean! Has Buddy Matthews joined Danhausen, Mariah May and Scorpio Sky in Tony Khans secret island prison?

Buddy Matthews is injured. I don't think the Mariah May situation is anywhere similar to the Danhausen and Scorpio Sky situations. Both of those guys should be used in some capacity. It's strange that they're not.

I heard Orange Cassidy had surgery very shortly after his injury. Is there any timetable for his return?

To be clear, I've not heard explicitly that he had surgery, but the concern was that he sustained a torn pectoral muscle. If he did have surgery, that would put him out until late in 2025.

Any updates on britt baker’s contract status?

Britt Baker signed a five-year extension in the fall of 2021. At the very least, her contract goes until the fall of 2026. If she has injury time -- which I'm not sure they'll add -- it could end up going quite a bit longer than that.
