Notes on Miro and Nyla Rose
– During an appearance at Pittsburgh Comic Con, Miro spoke about why he stopped wrestling barefoot and switched to boots, which he did during his time as Rusev in the WWE.
He said: “I tore my ankle. I had a match with Ryback and he gave me a back body drop outside the ring and as soon as I landed — I landed fine, but I was 315 pounds and my ankle just snapped, and all the ligaments, it tore everything around and ever since, I said, ‘No more.’ I put some shoes on. I loved (wrestling) barefoot. I was a huge fan of Umaga and always looked up to him. That was my tribute to him.“
– The first competitor for the Women’s Casino Battle Royale at AEW All Out is set in Nyla Rose. AEW has announced that Rose is the first entrant into the battle Royale, which takes place at the September 5th PPV in Chicago.
Gonna be the first two time casino battle royale winner, and the first two time AEW women’s world champion! But don’t get mad at me that’s just the #natureofthebeast https://t.co/HJgtu1lJx0
