Do you think LA Knight was buried by WWE at Crown Jewel?

I don't think you know the meaning of the term.  Knight fought a hard, competitive match with the top star in the company and lost, despite fighting all the way.  That's not a burial.  That's called getting the rub by virtue of showing you are a top talent against THE top talent.  Had Roman speared him 10 seconds and pinned him, THAT's a burial.

Do you think given he has not signed anywhere that CM Punk just opens his own promotion?

I would wager there is zero chance of that happening.

Do you think Smackdown expands to two hours when it moves to the USA Network?

If that's something USA is willing to pay for, it would happen.  WWE is in the business of making their partners happy.  However, as of this writing, it is not something I have heard is actually happening.

Are people really that nostalgic for TNA?

Yes, it's a passage of time thing.  People who were kids or teenagers when TNA was formed are now in their 20s or higher, so there's a level of nostalgia for them.  A lot of younger talents, including Will Ospreay and Josh Alexander, have put over the return of TNA as something that has brought them great excitement because they loved it and were inspired by it when they were younger, bringing them into the business.  So, I see why folks are excited about it.

Any update on Liv Morgan?

No real update.  The last I heard was that she was getting evaluated sometime this month to determine where she isy medically now vs. when she got hurt.  It's pretty logical to say that she will then be informed what the next course of action is, if anything.  Whether that means she is cleared or needs additional medical treatment, therapy, etc. it all depends on how that evaluation goes.
