    According to PWInsider Daniel Bryan was hurt in Dublin. Out for a month seemingly.

    Did anyone notice what spot it was?

    He was barely in the ring the whole match. I'd say 3 minutes tops. I'm not sure if he was stopped doing the missile drop-kick but when he did the flip over and went to the top he hit Barrett with meek looking axe-handle.

    Perhaps it was all that ferocious "Yes" gesturing while he was on the ring apron?

    Batista on whether he would return to WWE:
    I would (go back), I love wrestling. I talked to Chris Jericho, who is a good friend of mine, recently and he does a lot of untelevised events and that's all he does. I think I may take that path and try to do untelevised events because the television... you're just too locked in, you're too locked into the scripts, which I don't think are great these days. I don't want to be locked in, I just want to entertain the fans. So I may try to go that path.

    it feels like they just gone and replaced Punk, Cena & Ryback with Rollins, Orton & Reigns.

    According to Wrestle zone, Joey Samoay will debut in June.

    Oh, and the little matter of Rovert's tweet being quoted and screen capped in relation to a new NXT rookie, in the same article!

    Not surprising WWE is high on Dylan Mile. All it takes if for a guy to have a good look, and WWE/Vince McMahon will blow their load. It's his talent that I'm worried about. Is he a good talker? can he wrestle? does he have a character everybody can get behind? Can he do anything other then look good for the camera?

    He talks in a Andre The Giant style voice. Never heard it myself.

    PWInsider:
    Dolph Ziggler took to Twitter with a long rant that appeared to be lashing out with frustration about how he is perceived and used and teases he might be finishing up in several months.

    During the rant, which you can read below, Ziggler comments, "You've got 5 months to prove that I need you. THIS is for everyone screwed over bc they did what they weren't supposed to do - GET OVER it. you mad bro? sad, for a guy who never loses."

    I empathise with him. He was M-A-D-E at Survivor Series but they never followed up on it. Then like with Ambrose WWE put the thumb on him so not to usurp Roman Reigns.

    I don't care if it's a work or a shoot but that grammar is atrocious! Inexcusable!

    That ties in with the match on Sunday with Sheamus a bit too much for me to take it as legitimate!

    Odd:
    The WWE Network will air live action this Tuesday at 8 PM under the "King of the Ring" banner, using the logo of the old WWE PPV, so they are bringing back the concept (and perhaps the full tournament) in some fashion starting this week.

    Update:
    Tuesday, April 28
    King of the Ring – 8 ET/ 5 PT
    Continuing the action from Monday's Raw, the King of the Ring Tournament semi-finals and finals will take place live on the award-winning WWE Network.

    That's great news and a great use of the Network. It's exactly what I imagined the network would be used for!

    Only question is, why haven't they advertised the life out of this?

    They missed a trick not having this while Sandow was heel, now I'd say Barrett will win it.
