COULD TKO RELEASE THE TWO WWE AUTOBIOGRAPHIES THAT WERE NEVER RELEASED?, EDITING RAW ON NETFLIX, MJF AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2026-10-03 10:00:00

There were two WWE books famously pulled before they were ever released - The Iron Sheik memoir and Stephanie McMahon's Ladyballs.  Now that we have a new owner to the company, any chance these could be revisited?

Technically, they could always do that but I don't know that there's been any real interest in doing so.  

Whose decision is it to censor Raw's replays: WWE's or Netflix's?

I have asked and haven't received a clear answer.  My best GUESS is that when it comes to the VOD version of the show, there is editing made to make sure the show clears as many localized rules in as many countries as possible, given the width of Netflix's reach.

When do you think MJF returns?

Well, they have to start getting stories together for the next PPV, so it could be as early as tonight.  It makes sense to get him back on TV antagonizing someone ASAP.

I’m not sure why there would be an issue for when WWE aired WC because YouTube is an on demand platform. It’s not a live show and people can watch whenever they wanted. If someone wanted to watch the AEW show they could watch then and turn on WC later.  Also isn’t it a little bit hypocritical of Tony or people in AEW to complain when WWE counters them when they do the same to TNA and don’t seem to care then about counter programming when they’re the ones choosing to go against the smaller company?

I don't know of anyone IN AEW who publicly complained.  There were lots of fans and people who discuss the industry making those comments, but no one within AEW made them privately to me or publicly as far as I know.  I guess the difference is that nothing that you mentioned involved the tribute to someone that passed away who was very much loved, which obviously on an emotional level is a very different thing from "business as usual."  I never heard that WWE was even contemplating moving the show and I think there were a lot of people who assumed it might happen, but in reality, it was, as you wrote a VOD stream.

Any update on 2 Cold Scorpio?

He gets sentenced on 10/9 in Kansas City.

Whatever happened to the Billy Jack Haynes case?

To the best of my knowledge, he stands trial this December on the charges of murdering his wife in Portland, Oregon.
