Kristopher Travis was a true inspiration to me. He gave hope to every human being he ever crossed paths with. A true hero. Deeply saddened.

- New Japan Pro Wresling's Invasion Attack, which airs on April 10, will have English language commentary. ROH's Kevin Kelly and Steve Corino will be calling the action. Typically Matt Striker does the English-language commentary, but has Lucha Underground commitments. Wrestling Inc will have full, live coverage of NJPW Invasion Attack.
- Speaking of New Japan, they've posted a video to their Youtube of Hiroshi Tanahashi "losing his air guitar."
