As noted earlier, WWE announced that former Divas Champion AJ Lee has retired from in-ring competition, specifically stating "in-ring competition with WWE."
AJ's husband, former WWE Champion CM Punk, tweeted the following after the announcement was made:
PWInsider has confirmed through their sources that Scott Steiner was banned from the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony last Saturday and that there was an incident with Hulk Hogan's wife.
The decision to ban Steiner from the ceremony was made by WWE officials after Hulk requested that Steiner not be allowed in.
Steiner was reportedly on the same flight to San Jose that Hogan's wife Jennifer was on. While they were waiting for their luggage at baggage claim, Steiner allegedly approached Jennifer and threatened that the next time he saw Hulk, there would be problems. Hogan's wife apparently didn't even know who Steiner really was at the time so it was a shocking experience for her as you could imagine.
Hulk was telling people over the weekend that he had no idea why Steiner would approach his wife and didn't know that there were issues between the two.
We haven't heard Steiner's side of the story yet but it could have to do with Steiner's lawsuit with TNA that's still going on, which stems from Steiner's Twitter comments about TNA, Eric Bischoff, Hulk and his daughter Brooke Hogan.
WWE has confirmed that CJ Parker has been released from NXT. They wrote the following on their website:
"WWE has come to terms on the release of NXT Superstar CJ Parker, as of today, April 3, 2015. WWE wishes CJ Parker the best in all his future endeavors."
The original plan for Roman Reigns vs. WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 31 was for the match go to 35 minutes with entrances. However, the pay-per-view ran long and the match was cut down, according to PWInsider.
WWE also cut a video for Bray Wyatt vs. The Undertaker out of the broadcast.
