2023-01-15 18:27:01 +0000 UTCDo we have confirmation that when abyss produces a match, he is actually wearing the gear and mask? And when its joseph parks producing a match he is in just a suit?

2023-01-15 07:07:09 +0000 UTCKO/Sami have had more than 19 matches before WWE, they had a match in EWR in Quebec (05/29/2004) that isn't listed on any of the match databases. My guess is there will be more small indy show matches from Canada that are missing.

2023-01-15 01:22:17 +0000 UTCPresume ronda vs raquel. The negativity around ronda caused the charlotte change
Colin Boyle
2023-01-15 01:01:27 +0000 UTCGuessing it was Ronda vs Charlotte originally.
