-It’s Labor Day in the United States. I will be doing my best to enjoy the holiday following the busy weekend, but things will get back to normal with Raw coverage tonight. By the way, the television ratings will be pushed back this week due to the holiday.
-WWE Raw is live tonight from Charlotte, North Carolina at Spectrum Center. The show includes the fallout from Saturday’s WWE Payback. Join me for my live review as Raw airs on USA Network tonight at 7CT/8ET. My weekly same night audio review will be available for Dot Net Members (including our Patreon patrons).
-Pro Wrestling Boom Live returns TUESDAY at 1CT/2ET. Jonny Fairplay and I will be taking your calls coming out of AEW All Out and WWE Payback at PWAudio.net. All pro wrestling current events topics are open for discussion. If you can’t call into the show, you are welcome to send pro wrestling related questions to dotnetjason@gmail.com.
We are looking for reports from tonight’s WWE Raw in Charlotte, Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite in Indianapolis, Friday’s WWE Smackdown in Boston, and Saturday’s AEW Collision in Cleveland. If you are going to an upcoming show and want to help, email me at dotnetjason@gmail.com

You may want to update that Marianna Komlos passed away on September 26, 2004. I didn’t even know she passed away all this time. It’s a shame she’s best known for being a part of one of Vince Russo’s worst ideas. Also, there were two Jerry Jarretts in wrestling?
Corrected. Thank you.
