WWS: October 10

NEWS (10/7-10/10) · Monday’s RAW was a double-taping, as there is a UK Tour next week, and apparently we’re not getting a UK Raw. This means for the fans in attendance, the first two hour RAW was 4+ hours. · Update on Luchasaurus/Killswitch (Bryan Alvarez / Wrestling Observer) “He is not back in the gym and he will not be back in the gym for a while and he’s not going to be back wrestling, probably, for a while. Apparently, there were complications [a potential compromised immune system as well due to other factors, possibly sleep apnea]. He ends up getting this flu and bad oxygen uptake as a result of whatever else, turned into pneumonia. And apparently he’s at high risk for a relapse, is what I was told. The big concern is that after all of this, they’ve been running test after test, and apparently there may be permanent damage. They found calcification in a heart valve and his body is not producing iron and so he’s got a whole bunch of tests that he apparently has to take. It’s bad. It’s bad enough that he’s out of the hospital, apparently, but he still has to do oxygen. I don’t want to say it’s a career-ending issue, but it could be a career-ending issue.” · Daniel Garcia announced he’s staying with AEW. He’s factored significantly into creative moving forward. · Though the idea is not finalized, The Rock v Roman Reigns v Cody Rhodes is on the table for WrestleMania 41. (via @WrestleVotes Radio Q&A) · Rhea Ripley is on the cusp of signing a new 5 year contract with WWE that includes a considerable raise. It’s just a matter of time before the two sides put pen to paper.
