Here is your fight size update for Sunday, May 2, 2021.
– Kip Sabian says “surgery incoming” after suffering a beatdown at the hands of Miro on the last episode of AEW Dynamite. Fightful Select confirmed that he’s been dealing with another injury and this is being used as a storyline excuse to get him out of the picture.
Thanks @ToBeMiro.
Surgery incoming.

Speaking with Louis Dangoor of WrestleTalk, Pinnacle member Shawn Spear spoke about recently released WWE Superstars Cassie Lee (Peyton Royce) and Jessica McKay (Billie Kay) and the likelihood of them signing in AEW. He said the following:
“In terms of where they’ll show up (mimics praying) Tony why not? But again, those things are above my pay grade. When things like that happen, and they happen to everybody, I tell everybody this not just those two, but I’ve been released before. Everybody loses their job at some point, you’re either there for 30 years and they give you a gold watch and you retire or things happen. The main thing is how you bounce back. Really good individuals, really strong-willed individuals and people with even a chip on their shoulder, they have a tendency to bounce back and land on their feet, and those two women are going to land on their feet without question. Wherever they go, they’re going to be on TV together somewhere. So selfishly I’d like us to get ahold of them first, but wherever they go they’re going to make a massive impactful debut. I expect nothing less from those two.”

– WWE Hall of Famer Kane (Glenn Jacobs) is wondering whether a shared musical universe in which Rick Springfield, Tommy Tutone, and Fountains of Wayne are telling a long-form story together is possible.
Serious question: what if Stacy’s mom is Jesse’s Girl and her number is 867-5309?

You’ll be on the edge of your seat watching fangs feasting on heaps of flesh as beautiful babes are fed to the beasts in It Wants Blood!”
