The post Impact Wrestling Spoilers – January 13th, 2018 appeared first on Wrestling News & WWE News, Rumors & Spoilers.

There appears to be a couple of inaccurate reports regarding the situation with Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn being sent home after Tuesday’s SmackDown Live tapings.

Dave Meltzer mentioned on the F4WOnline message board that reports of Owens being mad on the tour bus after the tapings are not true because he’s not even on the bus after the tapings. Additionally, Meltzer mentioned that this situation has nothing to do with the departures of Neville or Jimmy Jacobs.

Here is an excerpt of what Meltzer wrote:

“There’s a lot of untrue info.

For one, the story of Owens being mad on the tour bus after the tapings isn’t accurate. He was not even on the bus after the tapings.

The finish of the match was exactly as it was supposed to be. The post-match is a story that is being told different ways depending on how you hear it but that is the point of contention.

But that is the thing, any other stories are not accurate as it pertains to them being sent home.

None of this has to do with Neville, Jimmy Jacobs, etc.”

When asked about Owens & Zayn being brought back to television next week, Metlzer mentioned that it’s all up to Vince.

“It’s all up to Vince. He’s he guy who suspended Titus for 90 days for nothing. Trying to predict his reactions are a waste of time because they are often contradictory and make no sense. Neither is looking to leave.”

While speaking with Live Audio Wrestling, Jimmy Jacobs talked about his release from WWE and mentioned that he was okay with how everything went down.

“No mistake was made. I am a-ok with the way everything went down,” said Jacobs.

Jacobs would then confirm that the rumors are true that he was actually released from the company for posting a photo of himself with The Bullet Club when they decided to invade RAW a few weeks back.

“It was given to me as the reason.”

Jacobs indicated that he wasn’t sure if the incident with The Bullet Club was the straw that broke the camel’s back or if there were other factors that played into his release from the company.

”If it was, I’m not aware of any of that. It’s certainly possible but who knows.”

You can listen to his remarks embedded in the audio below:

Block 1:

Taz opens today’s show speaking about WWE releasing writer Jimmy Jacobs. During The Bullet Club’s invasion of RAW last week Jacobs made his way out to the crowd and took a picture with his former colleagues. Jacobs then posted this picture on his Instagram and WWE clearly didn’t take kindly to this.

In Taz’s opinion, Jacobs had to know that WWE was going to be furious with him doing what he did. He suspects that perhaps Jacobs was looking for a way out of WWE because working for that company isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be at some points. Jacobs is a smart guy and he had to know that if he went out and took a picture with The Bullet Club he was going to be fired.

Taz continues by pointing out that Jacobs already has a new shirt for sale on ProWrestlingTees.com and this might have been his whole plan right from the beginning. Taz still doesn’t understand why WWE was so angry about this ‘invasion’ anyways, and if he was running things he would have just invited them into the building that night.

He points out that a lot of people are calling WWE petty since they first sent a cease and desist letter to The Young Bucks and now they’ve released Jacobs. While Taz agrees with the sentiment that those actions could be considered petty, he also points out that WWE has to protect their assets. On the other hand, he mentions that WWE is the top dog in the wrestling business and that’s not going to change in our lifetimes, so perhaps they shouldn’t be so worried about acknowledging other promotions.

WWE producer Jimmy Jacobs is no longer working for WWE, according to Ryan Satin of Pro Wrestling Sheet.

Apparently Jacobs decided to take a photo of himself with The Bullet Club when they showed up to the arena prior to RAW in Ontario, CA a few weeks back. This didn’t go over very well with the higher ups and he received “major heat” for this. It’s very possible that this could have played a role in his departure from the company. WWE reps have yet to comment.

You can see the photo below that got Jacobs in trouble:

Pleasant surprise to see old friends in lovely California. #BCInvasion #RAW #youngbucks #bulletclub #villian #hangmanpage #WWE

Lawler is joined on today’s show by his co-host Glenn Moore.

Lawler informs that he injured his knee recently and it might require some attention in the near future. He recently visited a doctor with his son and the doctor told him that his son’s knees are three times worse than his, and his son is looking at a double knee replacement surgery. Lawler considers himself lucky to have been wrestling for 46 years and he has never required a knee surgery.

Lawler worked a cage match recently and had ‘The Mouth of the South’ Jimmy Hart in his corner for the match. He says that the cage was actually a very stable structure which surprised him, because he has worked in some pretty sad looking cages during his career. He informs that Hart threw his megaphone into cage at one point during the match and that reminded him of a cage match he worked against ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage many years ago.

Savage had Miss Elizabeth accompany him to the ring, and at one point she jumped into the cage. When she tried to climb back out of the cage, Lawler grabbed her skirt and the whole skirt came right off. The Memphis crowd got quite a show that evening. Lawler says that Elizabeth was a tremendous talent both as a valet and as an in-ring worker.
