Not there should be any doubt, but Ricky Starks has officially signed with WWE.

He has been internally added to the NXT roster under the Starks ring name, but that could always change should WWE give him another identity.

WWE need to leave his name alone. Only reason they would want to change it, merchandising. They tryin to make money off it. Keep his name as is. Work out some kinda deal.
 
All of yesterday's internal TNA changes were described to PWInsiderElite.com as simply restructing by Anthem. The departures of Josh Mathews abd Christy Hemme was about George Veras wanting to install his own team in the production side of the company more than anything else. He will effectively fill the same sort of role that Lee Fitting currently fills for WWE, overseeing everything on the production end.

We haven't heard from any talent who felt concerned about the changes but there was happiness over John E. Bravo and Ingrid Isley moving into larger roles as they are both really liked by the locker room.

The Josh Alexander farewell match against Eric Young will main event tonight's edition of TNA Impact on AXS.

TNA Champion Joe Hendry vs. Jake Something will open the show.

For those who have asked, next week's TNA Impact will be indeed be live from Full Sail University on AXS TV and TNA+.

We are told there will be several NXT talents on the taping.
 
WWE has signed Bill Eadie and Barry Darsow, aka Demolition to official WWE Legends deals, PWInsiderElite.com can confirm.

This one is especially surprising as Eadie and the then-WWF were involved in a long, drawn out legal battle over the rights to the Demolition name for many years. Eadie and Darsow were later part of the CTE lawsuit against the company that was eventually dismissed.

The WWE Legends deal brings the team back into the fold and opens the door for them to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as well as be included in WWE licensing for action figures, video games, etc.

Eadie worked for the company for many years under different guises including The Masked Superstar and The Super Machine.

Darsow performed as The Repo Man after the Demoltion run and performed in other gimmicks for WCW, including The Blacktop Bully as well as under his own name.
