- A new promotion out of Florida, XSE, had to cancel their debut events for this coming weekend because of Ric Flair. Flair pulled out of the XSE events to take another booking in Virginia. XSE canceled their events because they didn't want to run with their biggest name being a no-show.
- Ring of Honor star QT Marshall worked last night's WWE NXT tapings, losing to Aiden English. Apparently Marshall didn't receive an entrance and the match may have been a dark match. Marshall worked ROH's Manhattan Mayhem show last weekend.
