Ricochet Teases Joining WWE Performance Center?
There’s been a great deal of speculation over the past year that Lucha Underground star Prince Puma (aka Ricochet) has been on WWE’s radar. Ricochet has now stirred the pot by tweeting the following congratulating Tommy End and Roderick Strong for joining the WWE PC and teasing that he may see them sooner or later:
Congrats to the homies @roderickstrong and @tommyend. I’m sure I’ll be seeing ya sooner or later.

The Latest On TNA’s TV Taping Schedule For 2017
PWInsider is reporting that TNA has dates in January for Universal Studios in Orlando. They previously were reported for January 4-10th but the January 4th date is actually a load-in date. The actual tapings would be January 5-10th.
Janurary 5th is a Thursday so that would mean a “live” episode. PWI is told that the current plan is to try and shoot 12 episodes of Impact that week which sounds like an insanely grueling shooting schedule for all involved.
If TNA is filming 12 Impact Wrestling episodes that means the annual UK tour is not happening in 2017.
The 12 Impact Wrestling episodes would then take the company through until March 3, 2017 which is Wrestlemania week in Orlando. It would appear the company’s plan is to then do another round of tapings that week with a “live” episode on Thursday March 30th. It appears we can add free TNA tapings at Universal to the madness that will be Wrestlemania 33 week.
