JOHNNY KNOXVILLE AND WEE MAN RETURN TO HAUNT SAMI ZAYN!- Johnny Knoxville and Wee Man came back to haunt Intercontinental champion Sami Zayn at the Netflix Is A Joke Fest this weekend in Los Angeles. Zayn was doing his own gig at the Avalon when at one point, someone with a fake wig and mustache started mouthing off at him. It ended up being his WrestleMania nemesis and Jackass star Johnny Knoxville and the two were about to go at it again until WWE Women's World champion Becky Lynch brought the peace. But that was not the only surprise for Zayn. Towards the end of Zayn's gig on stage, Knoxville returned with a gift: flowers. The two hugged and at that point, Wee Man sneaked in and low-blowed Zayn and just like at WrestleMania, bodyslammed him in front of the crowd! WWE's Cathy Kelly was also on hand for the party. Clutchpoints.com has an in-depth of Zayn's set which you can read at . RAW PREVIEW- Four King and Queen of the Ring quarter final matches will be taking place on Monday Night Raw on USA Network. The four matches announced are Jey Uso vs Ilja Dragunov and Gunther vs Kofi Kingston in the King of the Ring tournament and Shayna Baszler vs Iyo Sky and Lyra Valkyria vs Zoey Stark in the Queen of the Ring tournament. Other than that, nothing else has been mentioned for Raw at time of this writing. EDDIE KINGSTON SUFFERS LEG INJURY AT NJPW SHOW- Eddie Kingston suffered a leg injury during his match against Gabe Kidd on Saturday at the NJPW Resurgence show in Ontario, California. Towards the end of the match, Kingston was suplexed from the ring apron and through a table waiting below but Kingston's leg hit the guard rail hard in the process. He immediately clutched his right leg upon landing. The former champion was visibly in pain and unfortunately he still had the attack of The Elite to go through before his night was over. Kingston is part of Team AEW against The Elite for the Anarchy in the Arena match at Double or Nothing in two weeks in Las Vegas. You can see the video of the suplex and when the injury happened at . ANTHONY HENRY CLEARED TO RETURN- Anthony Henry of The Workhorsemen wrote on social media that he has been cleared to return to the ring. Henry, who was part of AEW up until last month, was released after he suffered a broken jaw during an indie match against fellow AEW star Bryan Keith in March. Another nine stars were let go on April 2, the first time that AEW made a mass release since its existence. "Your boy is cleared and might be returning this week...keep your eyes open," he wrote. During a press call for ROH's Supercard of Honor days after Henry was released, Tony Khan said that he would re-hire him once he is medically cleared to return. ======================================================== ADVERTISING: (C) Copyright 1996-2024 Wrestling-Online.com ======================================================== |
