It was previously reported that The Undertaker would be making his first non-WWE appearances in The UK for a three-night tour with Inside The Ropes. Dates announced for The “Rise of The Taker” tour are April 30th in London, May 1st in Glasgow & May 2nd in Manchester.
The Dead Man’s first non-WWE appearance will actually come just a few days earlier on Sunday, April 28th at a “For The Love Of Wrestling” Convention in Liverpool. Taker will be appearing at the convention along with several WWE Hall Of Famers including Ric Flair, Bret Hart, Booker T, Lita, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash & other wrestling stars such as Christian & Eric Bischoff.
Tickets for the convention appearance are still available. Photo-op session tickets for the convention are $151.00. All tickets for the three-night tour from Inside The Ropes have been sold out for some time.

As previously reported, The Undertaker recently made news after removing WWE references from his social media accounts, which he is using more often these days. Taker replaced those references with an e-mail address for business inquiries & appearance bookings. It will be very interesting to see how often Taker chooses to accept bookings for non-WWE appearances. This does not mean that he will be wrestling for any other promotion.
Taker’s WrestleMania 35 status is reportedly up in the air after Dave Meltzer recently reported in The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that The Dead Man was not planned for a top WrestleMania match at last word, but that those matches were subject to adjustment.
While there is no update on a possible WrestleMania 35 Match for Taker, Meltzer speculated on a recent edition of The Wrestling Observer Radio Program that Taker would likely be booked for WWE’s next events in Saudi Arabia later this year. Meltzer added that the current plan is for WWE to return to The Kingdom in May & November.

???????????? The Deadman’s first ever appearance outside of the WWE, and we are very proud to be the company bringing him to you.
They do not come bigger than this! ???????????? #theundertaker @theundertaker @WrestlingTravel pic.twitter.com/2uA3V9aalx

There is simply no denying that Mark Henry is a legend in the wrestling business. For over two decades, Henry competed for WWE and received a ton of accolades. He won the World Heavyweight Championship and several other titles during his WWE career, and his contributions to the company were recognized with a WWE Hall of Fame induction in 2018. Henry has not appeared on WWE programming at all ever since he came out of retirement for the 50-man Royal Rumble match at the Greatest Royal Rumble event last year, but some fans may not know that he is still a member of the WWE family. “The World’s Strongest Man” himself discussed his current role with WWE in a recent interview with Sam Roberts.
During an appearance on the Notsam Wrestling podcast this week, Henry went into detail over his current behind the scenes position with WWE. Henry told Roberts that he is now a locker room enforcer for WWE. He mentioned that there have been issues in the locker room over the past few months, which have included arguments, talent arriving late, and others not cleaning up after themselves. Henry says that he will now be present at all the pay-per-views and will oversee the locker room areas for WWE events. Henry talked about past locker room leaders like Booker T, Big Show, and The Undertaker. According to Henry, there hasn’t been a true locker room leader like that in years but he is hoping to change that.
A brand new wrestling documentary is set to be released very soon. There have been plenty of great documentaries based on wrestlers over the years, but this new one will be focused on ECW legend and former WWE Champion Rob Van Dam. The film is called “Headstrong” and it will follow RVD as he travels around the country to embark on endeavors in stand-up comedy and pro wrestling. The film promises to give viewers an honest look into Van Dam’s life. The documentary will be officially released on February 19th on iTunes, Google Play, and VUDU. The movie can be pre-ordered right now on iTunes. For those interested in seeing more, the official trailer for Headstrong has been posted down below:

Valentine’s Day is a special date for The Big Show. The longtime WWE Veteran sat down with WWE.com to discuss The 20-year anniversary of his WWE debut.
Big Show jumped-ship from WCW, where he portrayed “The Giant” character, during the infamous Monday Night Wars, to WWE, making his surprise debut by coming through the ring from underneath and throwing “Stone Cold” Steve Austin through the steel cage wall during his highly-anticipated showdown against Mr. McMahon at The WWE St. Valentine’s Day Massacre 1999 PPV on February 14th.
The future WWE Hall Of Famer took some time out recently to reflect back on his WWE debut on The 20-year anniversary of the memorable moment in a video released via WWE’s various social media channels. The official description for the video, which you can watch in its’ entirety below, reads as follows:

“On Feb. 14, 1999, Big Show climbed through the ring and started his WWE career in impactful fashion. The World’s Largest Athlete looks back on his debut and career.”

F4W NEWSLETTER: Figure Four Weekly: A look at the connection between Evolution and Crown Jewel

When WWE returns to Saudi Arabia on November 2, they’ll be doing so just five days after their Evolution pay-per-view. People are always going to link WWE’s 10-year deal with Saudi Arabia with how it contradicts the company’s “women’s evolution” messaging, but Evolution and Crown Jewel taking place on the same week makes them feel even more connected.

WON NEWSLETTER: October 1, 2018 Wrestling Observer Newsletter: NJPW Destruction in Kobe, tons of news

Hiroshi Tanahashi beat Kazuchika Okada in their third classic match of 2018, but the big story of the Destruction in Kobe show came after the match was over.

Jay White, who has beaten Okada, Tanahashi and Kenny Omega this year in Gedo’s latest project of making a new young star, hit the ring after the match was over. White first laid out Tanahashi, who was selling being spent from a match that went 35:43, with the blade runner. That made sense, since, with White being the only guy who beat Tanahashi in G-1 this year, a Tanahashi vs. White match for the briefcase made sense, and the 10/8 King of Pro Wrestling show at Sumo Hall needed a couple of big matches, with no direct angles for the top guys being shot.

White started throwing around the young boys and then attacked Okada, his Chaos teammate, with forearms and stomps.

This post was updated at 3 PM Eastern.

Of all the possibilities to headline the UFC’s November return to Madison Square Garden, a title fight for the vacant women’s flyweight championship wasn’t high on the list of expected outcomes.

According to ESPN’s Brett Okamoto on Twitter, the main event for UFC 230 on November 3rd will be Valentina Shevchenko vs. Sijara Eubanks.

Shevchenko was to face Joanna Jedrzejczyk for the vacant title in the co-main event of December’s UFC 231, which is why this comes as a bit of a surprise. As of now, it’s unclear why Jedrzejczyk isn’t involved, but it’s assumed that she wouldn’t be ready in time.

Eubanks, who tweeted that she has signed the deal, was originally slated to compete for the title against Nicco Montano after winning the season of TUF where the belt was introduced. However, she had to pull out of the fight due to kidney failure trying to make weight. She made her official UFC debut earlier this year with a decision win over Lauren Murphy.

The 33-year-old has just five career fights and sports a 3-2 record, while the 30-year-old Shevchenko is a decorated fighter in several disciplines and has already competed for a UFC title once. She will be a big favorite coming into the fight.

The UFC appeared to have made efforts on a variety of main events for the MSG show, but nothing came to fruition. Their latest attempt was an Alexander Gustafsson vs. Yoel Romero bout for either the currently non-vacant UFC light heavyweight title or an interim version. That eventually turned into a Gustafsson-Jon Jones rematch for late-December that has yet to be announced.

As it currently stands, the title fight will headline above a co-main of Dustin Poirier vs. Nate Diaz, Jacare Souza vs. David Branch, Luke Rockhold vs. Chris Weidman II, Derek Brunson vs. Israel Adesanya, and more.

Thursday’s Impact averaged 105,000 viewers on Pop TV, up from last week’s 98,000 viewers. The October 18 episode, which was the final show before Impact moved to starting at 10 p.m. Eastern time, drew 189,000 viewers.

Before the time change, the previous low for a new episode of Impact on Pop was 161,000 viewers.

The rating in the 18-49 demo was unchanged at a 0.04.

This week’s Impact featured a Bound for Glory rematch between Tessa Blanchard and Taya Valkyrie, Pentagon Jr. vs. Homicide, LAX vs. Matt Sydal & Ethan Page, Rich Swann vs. Willie Mack, and The Desi Hit Squad vs. The Beach Bums.

Last night’s NFL game with the San Francisco 49ers blowing out the Oakland Raiders averaged 11.059 million viewers on Fox and 2.152 million on the NFL Network.
