How long is the BT Sport deal? It won't outlast that.

As Peacock rolls out internationally you could see the WWE selling the Network rights to them. That could see a reconciliation between Sky and WWE due to NBCUniversal's influence. Not to mention BT Sport is in a bit of an odd spot right now possibly being sold/taken over.

What should Hunter’s new promotion be called? TXN? 

[TheBurningRed]

Hideki Suzuki from Diamond Mine and Allison Danger who I think was there as a trainer and only hired a couple of months have been let go. 

How is NXT UK still surviving?

Is Regal fully unable to compete? 

I'm not thinking like AEW but there's a fair few I'd love to see him wrestle once, one being Zack Sabre Jr for sure.

This thread is worth a read. They really don't give a shit do they?

If Johnny Saint was mesmerising people after he returned at 70 then Regal can sure as hell put in a bloody good shift. That kind of wrestler can go until they're dead.

Cant see that. Finlay and Regal were the reason Sabre Jr wasnt hired, because they think he wrestles like a skinny soft shite.

[Factotum]

Regal to AEW (if he wants it) should be a no brainer. The guy is so fucking knowledgeable. Also he's great on screen.

But wasn't Regals issue that his neck is held together like worn tape? I wouldn't want him to risk serious injury for a few matches but if he could ease through it it'd be bloody fantastic. 

 

Edit:

@IANdrewDiceClaynever knew that. Was that before New Japan and in the case do you think its still the same thought?

Regal has a had a few surgeries, just hasn’t sounded like he was arsed anymore as seen himself as an old man

And they'd be absolutely spot on in that assessment

[BomberPat]

Yeah, Regal's neck is in a horrible state, and he spent the better part of his career in the US. He probably took more back bumps in a week than Johnny Saint did in his entire career. He's had a few health issues since then, too.

If anyone can work smart enough to have the odd showcase match at minimal risk to himself, it would be Regal, but I don't see him wrestling again unless he wants to go out against Danielson. He has so much to offer outside the ring, though, that if he still wants to stay in wrestling, every promotion will be after him

I thought his last match was that one against Cesaro on that Christmas episode of NXT a few years back? It's a cracking match.

I can’t imagine how you could humiliate him more.

Have him job to Dana Warrior at Wrestlemania in under two minutes.

It was - brilliant match, even better pre-match promo.
