Update on Jerry Lynn’s Surgery GoFundMe Campaign

jerry lynnThanks to Brian Fritz for sending in the following:

I wanted to update everyone on the GoFundMe campaign to help former TNA X-Division, ECW World and Ring of Honor World Champion Jerry Lynn with his upcoming neck surgery.

In just the first 24 hours, we have received 319 donations for nearly $9,000 which is simply incredible. So many people have stepped up with donations and also spreading the word about the campaign.

Wrestling stars including Mick Foley, Lita, Austin Aries, CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Bully Ray, Taz, Christopher Daniels, Frankie Kazarian, Adam Cole, Steve Corino, Kevin Kelly, Tommy Dreamer, MVP and Sean Waltman have all helped out with donations or promoting it on social media.

Thank you to everyone for helping Jerry as we continue the push forward to reach the goal of $15,000. Please continue to spread the word on social media at www.gofundme.com/helpjerrylynn.

Chael Sonnen Claims He Was the Heir to the Legendary “Piper’s Pit” Segment

On the latest edition of “Louder Noise”, which you can watch in the video player below, Chael Sonnen claims he and Roddy Piper were scheduled to do a “Piper’s Pit” segment at the Las Vegas Global Force Wrestling tapings, however it ended up just being Sonnen cutting a promo of his own.

Sonnen goes on to claim that Roddy Piper was actually supposed to “pass the torch” to Sonnen as the new “Piper’s Pit” host, although the show might adopt a new name. Sonnen had the following to say:

“After we did one, Piper would pass the torch to me and then I would take over the ‘Piper’s Pit.’ Under what name, I’m not totally sure. Real close connection right there, particularly time-wise.”
