Hello there, my very good friends.

On today's wrestling news video, obviously, we are leading with the WW Star taking a 50% pay cut. Also, WWE are trying to re-sign Xavier Woods. A shocking WW return could be on the cards for backlash. And the new day comment on their WWE releases. I'm Adam Wilborn. I'm Andy H-Murray, the H stands for Heffalump. And this is the news.

All right, let's kick this one off with a 50% pay cup, baby. We take a long weekend off

and everything happens. The world falls to pieces. Half the MFTs are gone. The new day

are gone from WW. It's wild. WW are seemingly restructuring pay and Roman Rains is no longer an upcoming ROS. The most TKO thing ever this, isn't it? It is the most TKO story I've probably ever heard. Ooh, looks like you got some of our money there. Yeah. But I mean, it kind of, the drip feed of TKOisms kind of began with them pulling comps a few years ago, right? Ticket lies. we're in a situation where a majorly pushed talent, in the words of PW Insider,

was asked to take a 50% pay cut and actually agreed to do it.

So there's a lot to unpack with this.

But we don't, Mike Johnson, who reported this from PW Insider, doesn't...

Didn't put the name of the person out there.

Because they can't... he couldn't confirm it was exactly that person.

But there's whispers, isn't that?

There is, there is. But somebody's done this.

Somebody's taken this 50% pay cut.

And they've noted that it's interesting because it comes that apparently this took place

a day before Kofi and Xavier Woods, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, the New Day left.

Neutral parting of ways between WWE and the New Day when WWE tried to cut their pay,

which is wild because it's one of the greatest WWE tag teams of all time. We'll talk about the new day later

in this video. We will talk about them because it's a big story and we haven't done it yet.

Now Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Daily Update has noted that the person who took this pay cut, although

Mike Johnson's used the term majorly pushed, pretty majorly pushed.

Dave says it's not a tippy top person, right?

So I'll read you exactly what he wrote.
