ARE HEYMAN & BROCK STILL UNDER WWE CONTRACT?, WHY NEW JAPAN WAITS TO ANNOUNCE LINEUPS AND MORE

Are Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar under WWE deals anymore?

WWE has been very mum on the subject of Brock Lesnar.  It was known he was finishing up at Summerslam, but it's never been stated that he's no longer under contract and any questions of that nature have been ignored.  It's possible his deal expired, but it's just as possible he's still under contract but is being given the time off to pursue his UFC exploits, just as he was given the chance to compete at UFC 200.

As for Heyman, he has been backstage at recent TV tapings working in a behind the scenes capacity. 

Whatever happened to David Flair?

Flair lives in North Carolina and works in law enforcement.

When do you think Kurt Angle returns?

I wouldn't be shocked if he's back within the next month.

Any word on Molly Holly returning for Evolution?

Nothing official, but it would make sense.

I was thinking about going to New Japan in California but hardly anything has been announced.  Why is that?

It's just the way the promotion announces things.  They have to wait to get past the current big show, tomorrow's event in Hiroshima, before they begin announcing the next big event.  It's their way of not tipping their hand.
