Jason shuffles in to your Chairshot Wrestling News Shuffle with commentary on Mandy Rose, Bea Priestly, Bray Wyatt and more!

New Member To The AEW Female Roster

All Elite Wrestling continues to add talent to the ever growing roster. In the latest YouTube episode of The Road To Double Or Nothing, it was announced that Bea Priestley would be joining the promotion and making her debut at the July event Fight For The Fallen.

Jason’s Take

Bea Priestly is a great addition to the AEW roster and is one of the great females on the independent scene. Check out some of her matches against Kay Lee Ray and Nixon Newell.

Jason’s Take

WWE seems to be ready to push Mandy Rose. While I don’t think she wins here, I wouldn’t be surprised if a title reign was in her future.

Bray Wyatt To Return Soon?

Bray Wyatt took to Twitter today, and looks like he may be returning soon.

Dear Sean Rueter, I don’t care what you think. How’s this for cryptic, I’ll be back soon. And when everyone sees how great I am, you will owe me a beer. Until then, stop writing reports on me every time I write something. https://t.co/yN4iXgGU87

Jason’s Take

I had figured initially that Wyatt would be back for WrestleMania. While there is still time, look for a return the RAW/SmackDown after WrestleMania.

AEW Looking At More Possible Venues?

Cody Rhodes has confirmed today that AEW is looking at venues for potential upcoming shows. In an interview with the WINCLY podcast, the Executive Vice President of AEW, discussed potentially running stadium shows. (Thanks to #WrestlingNewsCo for the transcription)

“To be frank, I have a couple site visits in the next few weeks that are stadiums,” he confirmed. “So, it doesn’t mean anything. There’s no promises, no contracts, no nothing like that. Just me and my business partners checking out a few spots. That would be really exciting [to host that many people]. I mean, that would be a dream come true to have over 40,000+. When you get between that 40 and 80 range a Wrestlemania-like event has, that Superbowl event-like has…that’s something special. But I know that we don’t want to — we really got to do this right. We got to crawl before we walk and we’ve got to walk before we run, and you’ve seen companies that have a lot of financial backing take shop that they shouldn’t take, so, we’re just trying to be careful.”

Jason’s Take

Obviously they have to have more shows than Double Or Nothing and Fight For The Fallen, so of course they are looking at venues for upcoming shows.
