Joey Styles was told outright to make no more Twitter posts talking about politics. While it was noted that some in the company loved what he said since most in WWE are very conservative, there was said to be a lot of heat on Styles from the corporate side for fear of an advertiser backlash.

Ric Flair made appearances at both Ring of Honor events last Friday and Saturday in Detroit and Chicago. There were no issues with Flair this time around as he took part in interview sessions and cut promos at each show.

UPDATE: WWE releases to be announced at 7:00est TONIGHT!
