POSSIBLE DREW MCINTYRE UPDATE, LAWSUIT UPDATES AND MORE WWE NOTES

By Mike Johnson on 2022-01-19 17:49:00

For whatever it is worth (and this can always be a case of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing), Drew McIntyre was featured in a WWE advertisement for the 3/25 Smackdown taping in Brooklyn earlier today.   There's been no word on McIntyre's neck since he was spotted in Pittsbugh for testing a few weeks back.  

Today's hearing in the Randy Orton tattoo lawsuit was postponed until 1/26 at the last minute.  A new trial date will be determined at that hearing.

Konstantine Kyros, the attorney who represented a number of former WWF and WWE performers in the now-dismissed WWE concussion lawsuit, has filed an appeal in an attempt to reverse sanctions he was ordered to pay World Wrestling Entertainment's legal expenses in the case.  WWE, at one point, was seeking upwards of $200,000 in legal reimbursements.

For those of you looking to get into the business as pro wrestlers, Create-A-Pro Wrestling Academy is having an open house with head trainers Brian Myers and Pat Buck in attendance tomorrow 1/20 at their facility in Rahway, NJ.  You will be able to view a training class and watch some demo matches.  MJF, Bear Country, Kris Statlander, Fallah Bahh, Max Caster and more have all come from the CAP facilities.  For more, visit www.CreateAProWrestling.com.

WWE tweeted:

Naomi vs. Charlotte Flair is being locally advertised for the WWE return to Johnson City, TN on 3/19.

Beloved long-time WWE ring announcer Tony Chimmel will be making his first-post WWE appearance at the 3/5 Big Event convention in New York City.
