Here’s your Fight Size wrestling Update for the evening of October 13th, 2018.

– Former 11-time WWE World Champion and WWE Hall Of Famer Edge’s segment for SmackDown 1000 is no longer being advertsied on WWE’s website. In the press release concerning Edge being announced for SmackDown 1000, it read that he was going to be hosting an episode of “The Cutting Edge”.

– Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer recently talked about a number of unnamed talents in New Japan Pro Wrestling who are unhappy with management and the new President Harold Meij and that report grabbed the attention of current IWGP Tag Team Champion Tama Tonga.

Funny reading that a lot of foreign performers are complaining about the work atmosphere not being “fun” in New Japan. What a load of shit. Plenty of great talents out there that would be grateful to have an opportunity to work in NJPW
Who fed you those lies @davemeltzerWON ?

So to the foreigner or foreigners complaining to @davemeltzerWON that they are not having “fun” you can GTFO. I’ve never in my career here in New Japan have ever heard of a Japanese wrestler complaining about the work atmosphere not being “fun” in New Japan. GTFOUTTAHERE
