Select Portions: Kenny Omega, Chris Hero, Bianca Belair, IMPACT
Added 2023-06-04 03:17:39 +0000 UTC- Fightful Select will have some more AEW Fight Forever behind the scenes news and notes coming this week.
- WWE were very happy about this week's Smackdown overnight ratings. There were huge jumps across the board.
- NJPW sources claimed Kenny Omega was not scheduled to appear at Dominion in person this weekend.
- There was a small error with ordering tickets for IMPACTβs White Plains event, which weβre told has been fixed
- Creative notes were sent in to people within WWE for Smackdown by 7 PM ET on Thursday
- Steve Maclin told Fightful Overbooked's In The Weeds the way he looked at Under Siege with all the blood βwas not meant to happen that way, but things happen in a wrestling ring that are out of our hands. He ended up having to get a few stitches.
- Chris Hero told Grapsody he's not retired, saying "If I was retired there would have been some kind of a celebration, a ceremony, a festival. A week long, month long thing. No, I'm not retired. I'm currently inactive. I just can't stay away from wrestling in any way. So as I bide my time and wait for the right thing to come back for and start having matches again, I have kept pretty active. I've done a bunch of seminars, I've done signings, of course. Then I kind of dabbled into the world of producing. It's funny, we use this term producing, but it's kind of like directing. Directing is probably a better [term], but I'm not going to start calling myself a director."

2023-06-04 04:33:34 +0000 UTCIβm hoping those New Japan sources are wrong, I really want to see Omega show up in person at Dominion. Itβll be a great show no matter what, but I need to see him live on the show.
