Block 1:

Taz opens today’s show by commenting on the horrific attack that occurred in New York 16 years ago today. He sends his thoughts and prayers to all the families affected during that tragedy, and all the first responders who are suffering today due to their heroic efforts that day.

Taz was still wrestling with WWE at the time and was stuck in Houston when the attacks occurred. His wife and young child were still in New York, and it was a very scary situation knowing he couldn’t get home to be with them. At first he couldn’t get in contact with his wife but finally he was able to reach her, and he took comfort in knowing his wife and son were okay.

He continues by saying that Vince McMahon wanted to use his private plane to fly some wrestlers from the New York area home so they could be with their families, but his jet wasn’t allowed to take off. Eventually planes started flying again and Taz knew he’d have to get to the airport very early to make it through the lines, but even though he was 4 or 5 hours early, the lines were still out through the airport doors.

While waiting in line Taz received a call from a WWE employee who told him that there was a seat available on a larger plane that Vince McMahon chartered, in order to ensure more people could get out of Houston and get closer to home in the Northeast. Taz was very thankful for that, and it’s something he’ll never forget.

We noted a few days back that Sasha Banks was complaining about fans waiting for her at the airport or her hotel asking for autographs. She accused these fans of being stalkers.

“I grew up a wrestling fan, so I knew that I wanted to meet all my favorite wrestlers. But always in the back of my head I never thought in my life to be like, ‘Hey, they’re gonna fly in. Maybe I should wait at the airport for like 12 hours at a gate. Hey! They don’t want any sleep. Maybe I’ll go find their hotel they’re staying at and let me bother them.”

“Like to me, that’s stalking. I don’t tweet out what hotel I’m at. I don’t tweet out what airline I’m flying. I do tweet you what arena I’ll be performing at, so I do expect fans at the arena, and I’m so happy to sign at the arena, that’s fine because I’m telling you where I’m going to be at. If I see you in public, that’s fine.But when I’m at an airport at 4 in the morning and I see somebody with a carry-on and they open it with a hundred items of everyone and they’re bothering everybody to get an autograph, and I see it on eBay – that’s not okay to me.”

Former WWE Superstar Bubba Ray Dudley has a different opinion on the matter and he took to Twitter to address Banks’ remarks. He wrote, “Never worry about fans waiting at an airport at 5am asking for your autograph. Worry when they’re NOT there at 5am asking for your autograph.”

There is a rumor going around that former WWE Superstar The Great Khali is backstage in Philadelphia for tonight’s WWE Battleground event.

While Khali has not been confirmed to appear on camera tonight, it’s been speculated that he may appear in the main event match of Randy Orton vs. Jinder Mahal for the WWE Championship given his connection with the Punjabi Prison match. One of our readers also sent word that Khali posted photos of himself at the airport and on an airplane earlier this morning.

Khali last appeared for WWE on the October 31st, 2014 episode of SmackDown in a losing effort to Rusev. Khali left the company once his contract expired on November 13th, 2014th.

Pro Wrestling Sheet reports that Paige could possibly be charged with battery in the incident that involved Alberto El Patron at the airport a few weeks back. It will be up to the State Attorney’s office to make the final decision.

El Patron was originally being investigated for the charge and his investigation is still not complete. A representative from the Orlando PD told the site the following statement:

“OPD detectives have found that probable cause exists to charge Saraya Bevis with Battery (Domestic Violence). Detectives have sent the information to the State Attorney’s Office for review and the SAO will determine whether to file charges in the case.”
