– As previously reported, Global Force Wrestling (GFW) star Tyrus took to social media to announce he is refusing to work GFW tapings in Orlando this week as he and his fans have been “Handcuffed and treated like a second-class citizen creatively” for the past few weeks. WWE Superstar Matt Hardy took to Twitter to praise Tyrus for recognizing his own worth and standing up for himself:
Worked closely with Tyrus, loved it. Super talented, smart & witty. A legit crossover star. Glad you recognize your worth when others don't. https://t.co/9uQlpraTy3

– Recently released WWE Superstar Austin Aries recently did an interview with ClickOn.co to promote his new book, Food Fight. ClickOn admitted to intentionally staying away from professional wrestling talk in the interview, claiming “Austin may be a world-class performer but his depth in terms of the things he’s working on outside of the ring is what we should all be focusing on here.”
Aries did, however, tease a potential in-ring return on Twitter recently, saying it will feel ‘so sweet’ the next time he hits a brainbuster:
The next brainbuster I hit is going to feel so sweet…
