We noted before that Dean Ambrose was being referred to the WWE Champion on this week’s RAW, a sign that WWE has plans to use two world titles for the upcoming Brand Extension. That change has also been made on WWE’s website with the title now being referred to as just the WWE Championship, not the WWE World Heavyweight Title.

Jim Ross Provides Commentary On NASCAR Truck Series Brawl (Video)

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross provided unique commentary for the NASCAR Truck Series brawl that occurred over the weekend

The NASCAR Truck Series usually doesn’t get as much attention as the Sprint Cup Series does, but on Saturday night, they stole the show for the weekend. After a crash on the track between John Wes Townley and Spencer Gallagher, the two brawled right in the middle of the track.

Brawl might be a kind way of putting it, because it was the worst fight ever and they looked like they were hugging instead of fighting. Short little hooks and a terrible DDT right on the warm pavement highlighted the fight, but immediately, people began attaching Jim Ross calls to the video.

So it’s only fitting that Ross created his own commentary for the fight in hilarious fashion. He tried his best to call it with the excitement of a Hell in a Cell match, but this fight was so bad, that Ross really turned up the comedy in this scenario.

WWE Total Bellas Premiere Date Set

E! has announced that they will premiere Total Bellas on Wednesday, October 5th at 8pm EST. They issued the following:

E! SETS PREMIERE DATE FOR NEW SERIES “TOTAL BELLAS”WWE Superstars The Bella Twins(TM), John Cena(R) and Daniel Bryan(R) Move In Under One Roof in New Spin-Off Series Premiering Wednesday, October 5 at 8:00pm ET/PT

LOS ANGELES, CA – June 27, 2016 – Two’s company, three’s a crowd, and these four – are just too much to handle. E! Entertainment exposes the Raw and real lives of WWE(R) Superstars Nikki and Brie Bella when “Total Bellas,” spin-off of E!’s mega-hit series “Total Divas,” premieres Wednesday, October 5 at 8:00pm ET/PT. The six, one-hour episodes will give viewers an exclusive, intimate look into the VIP lives of the Bellas and their fellas, John Cena and Daniel Bryan, as the four distinctly unique and comical personalities coexist under one roof for the first time.

Although these twins share the same genes, they will never share the same jeans as living together was more tolerable when they just shared a womb. The free-spirited, vegan-loving, live-and-let-live lifestyle of Brie and Bryan has always clashed with the fancy panache of the designer handbag-loving Nikki and the meticulously organized tendencies of John. However, when the four world-renowned WWE Superstars move in under one roof, the comical clash of titans rings all throughout the suburbs of Tampa, FL.

The series kicks-off with Nikki and John being sidelined by injuries and Daniel’s recent retirement from the ring. This docu-series will follow the odd-couple relationships of these eccentric WWE Superstars as Brie does her best to nurse, not only Nikki, but John and Daniel back to health, all while trying to retain their sanity. With Nikki’s recent neck surgery, Brie’s retirement at WrestleMania(R), Daniel’s untimely retirement from WWE, and John’s rising profile in Hollywood, fans will get an exclusive beyond-the-ropes glimpse into how these dynamic individuals juggle their reality and prepare for their uncertain futures.

“Total Bellas” is produced by WWE and Bunim/Murray Productions. Gil Goldschein, Jeff Jenkins and Russell Jay are Executive Producers for Bunim/Murray Productions. Kevin Dunn is Executive Producer for WWE. Nikki Bella and Brie Bella also serve as Executive Producers.

A house divided cannot stand… in stilettos. “Total Bellas” premieres Wednesday, October 5 at 8:00pm ET/PT only on E!

The Brooklyn Brawler — Returns To The Ring Following WWE Release

Source: Pro Wrestling Sheet

Steve Lombardi aka The Brooklyn Brawler made his return the ring Saturday night following a quiet exit from WWE last month — and we’ve got exclusive footage of the match.

The whole thing went down in Brooklyn, of course … where the 55 year-old wrestled for Legendary Action Wrestling against Eric Jayden in the show’s opener.

In case you missed it, Lombardi was let go back in May when WWE parted ways with a whole slew of talent.  For some reason, Brawler’s release was never announced like the others.

According to the event promoter, the full match will soon be made available on their YouTube channel.
