| 0:00.0 | Hi there everybody, on today's wrestling news, we have an update on Jerry Waller's health after a recent scare. |
| 0:05.6 | A top star is taking some time off from WWE. |
| 0:09.1 | Eddie Kingston has some very spicy words for MJF in a new interview. |
| 0:13.1 | And a WWE legend has retired after the Royal Rumble. I'm Adam Wilborn. |

| 0:20.3 | Alright, let's give you an update on the condition of Jerry Waller. This started doing the rounds yesterday. |
