When is ilja dragunov expected to be back. Pwn said it was in september this year.
September or October is a good, safe assumption. ACL injuries almost always have about a one year or more recovery time. He's been rehabbing.
Think Rich Swann heads back to WWE?
I don't. We reported the story of him being done with TNA recently, but he's been done effectively for like six months. He's working the indies and doing well there. I'm told that the TNA-Swann relationship is still amicable.
Any rumors of how Peacock-WWE negotiations are going????
All the indications I was given was that this year's WrestleMania numbers would play a big role in the future of that relationship. It expires in 11 months. I wouldn't rule out WWE shopping WrestleMania separately as well.

Personally I hope WWE stays on Peacock. I like the UI. I do watch other things on there so that helps. Never had a single issue with it buffering regardless of the speed of my internet.

2025-04-21 16:15:20 +0000 UTCI was the one asking about the Peacock negotiations as that is my hope as well. I guess I am one of the few that watch it for the classic content from 1979-1999.

2025-04-21 16:06:21 +0000 UTCUgh. I don’t like that with them trying to sell WM separately. I get it from a business standpoint but I like WWE on peacock (wish their content was organized better for watching shows in order) but whatever.
