— Former pro wrestler Evan Karagias turned 42 years old on Friday.
— Gran Hamada turned 65 years old on Friday.
— The WON reports that reports of backstage heat on Lana are underselling the whole thing. A source close to the matter told the site that WWE being angry at her is a “major understatement” and that, as noted last week, it stems in part from her taking her issues with the Charlotte/Paige RAW promo public via Twitter.
The site notes that the company’s issues with her regarding that incident largely came from her inferring that Paige was a bully. The company was already upset with her because they believe she leaked her engagement to Rusev online, which forced them to change their onscreen storylines. The source said that calling Paige a bully was ridiculous anyway because she was one of the people who were picked on the most while in NXT.
