— Following Tuesday night’s SmackDown tapings, the WWE crew is now off until Monday’s RAW. They have an overseas tour next week with events in London, Manila and Shanghai.
— A fan named Mike Huck has started a petition (originally on Reddit) through change.org, designed to make Roman Reigns remove his illegal vest during the course of WWE competition. He plans to deliver the petition to the following people in hope of action: Vince McMahon, Jack Tunney (that one may be difficult), Mick Foley, Stephanie McMahon, Barack Obama, Francisco Aguilar of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, Senator John McCain, as well as Congressmen Tony Cardenas and Elijah Cummings. The complaint reads as follows…
Roman Reigns has been systematically breaking the rules of Admiral-Lord Mountevans Unified Rules of Professional Wrestling through the use of illegal body armor to protect himself during the course of matches with legitimately dressed competitors, and has been doing so throughout his career. We require swift action that prohibits the use of this body armor in all future WWE contests by Mr. Reigns and anyone else.
