WWE Trying to Keep Indy’s Out of WM Weekend

According to The Wrestling Observer, WrestleMania 31 in Santa Clara, California may see the doors to Levi’s Stadium open as early as 1:30pm local time. Part of the reason for that is WWE looking to combat the other afternoon indie wrestling events in the year.

More on Early UK/Ireland Network Launch

As we first reported on Tuesday, the WWE Network is ahead of its launch schedule in Ireland and The UK, and is now available in those markets. Several UK based WZ readers who access the Network using a proxy, signed up for the service and noted that none of the content is blocked based on country.

Finn Balor Talks Kidd NXT Match

The following video is this week’s NXT Breakdown, featuring Finn Balor talking about his NXT match against Tyson Kidd:

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
