WWE Releases Zahra Schreiber Due to Controversial Social Media Posts #MMBWWE

WWE announced the following:

"WWE has released Zahra Schreiber due to inappropriate and offensive remarks she made that were recently brought to our attention."

Zahra is the girlfriend to WWE World Heavyweight Champion and United States Champion Seth Rollins, the same NXT Diva involved in the nude photo scandal several months back.

She was in the news this weekend due to controversial swastika photos and comments that fans uncovered that she had previously deleted from social media. This is why she has been released. She just debuted as the "sister" of Solomon Crowe this weekend at a NXT live event.

Could We See Samoa Joe On The Main Roster Soon? #MMBWWE #MMBNXT

Samoa Joe had reportedly signed a full-time WWE contract after impressing officials with his work at the recent NXT tapings and due to the success of his t-shirt sales.

Joe has not actually signed the contract as of earlier today but both sides have agreed on the deal and the paperwork was being put together. The new deal will not see Joe go straight to the main roster as he will be a focal point of NXT for a few months. Obviously Joe is expected to end up on the main roster, possibly fast-tracked as they've done with Kevin Owens.

Regarding Joe and Ring of Honor, he is still teaming with AJ Styles to face Kazarian and Daniels at the July 20th ROH TV tapings and this will likely be Joe's farewell but the company was looking at using Joe for more dates until the news came out about the full-time deal with WWE. We've noted that Joe will still be fulfilling all indie dates that are scheduled but WWE will likely come first if they needed him on a date that was already booked for an indie.

Samoa Joe Could Be Kept Off ROH TV Due To WWE Contract #MMBWWE #MMBROH

With Samoa Joe signed to WWE NXT, there's already speculation that WWE will nix his ROH TV appearances now that ROH is airing on cable. The same rule could apply for Rhyno and other talents. Joe is currently scheduled to work the June 20th ROH TV tapings, teaming with AJ Styles to face Kazarian and Daniels. ROH is likely also awaiting confirmation on whether or not they will be able to use Joe on TV, if they haven't found out already.

Details on Samoa Joe's WWE Contract #MMBNXT

It has been noted before that Samoa Joe reportedly has a new type of deal with WWE where he's able to work future indie dates. F4Wonline.com adds that Joe has very few restrictions on where he can work. His deal was described as similar to the one Rhyno has but for a lot more money.

WWE Diva Getting Heat In NXT #MMBNXT

As seen at WWE NXT Takeover on Wednesday night, Eva Marie was shown in the crowd. She appeared at Thursday's TV tapings and taped a segment on the stage with NXT host Greg Hamilton, likely airing on the June 3rd episode. Before Eva could even speak she was met with some of the worst heat I've seen live at Full Sail. Fans chanted "you can't wrestle" and other negative comments at her. Eva handled it pretty well but it was painful to watch fans not even give her a chance, especially with how she's been training with Brian Kendrick. It looks like she will be working the next set of tapings on June 18th. Eva wrote the following on Instagram after the tapings:

Thank you #NxtUniverse for welcoming me with such open arms at #FullSail 😉 you will be seeing me again! 💪 @wwenxt @wwe - #AllRedEverything #BettaThanEva #RedStormRising 💪👊

NXT Champion Kevin Owens’ title match against Sami Zayn ended in chaos as Samoa Joe stepped into NXT #MMBNXT

In a highly anticipated and very personal rematch, former best friends Sami Zayn and champion Kevin Owens went head-to-head for the NXT Title.

Early mind games by the champion quickly gave way to a true brawl that rampaged inside and outside the ring. into the NXT Universe. Back in the ring, like a man possessed, Zayn seemed to have an answer for almost everything Owens threw at him – that was until the action moved back outside and Owens suddenly the determined challenger with a Pop-up Powerbomb onto the ring apron. From there, the vicious titleholder would not relent, refusing to let officials check on Zayn — still recovering from an injury suffered weeks ago in a breakthrough clash on Monday Night Raw against John Cena — and then unleashed an absolute onslaught on his defenseless adversary.

ESPN Producer Speaks On E:60 "WWE: Behind The Curtain" #MMBWWE

ESPN's E:60 will premiere their "WWE: Behind The Curtain" documentary on ESPN this Tuesday night at 8pm EST. E:60 producer Ben Houser recently spoke with Mike Mooneyham of The Post & Courier about filming and it was noted that fans will never again boo Adam Rose after this special. Houser also commented on filming:

“Our goal was to tell a story that hadn’t been told about the WWE and their talent development system, NXT. Who are the real-life people behind the characters? How does the WWE create characters? Evaluate performances? At our first behind-the-scenes NXT shoot in Orlando, Fla., at Full Sail University, we got resistance from some of the WWE television folks. No one had ever before been allowed to film rehearsals, backstage during an event, in the locker rooms, or interactions between agents and performers before and after matches.”

“He [Triple H] even allowed some NXT stars to shoot on our hand-held E:60 mini cameras during practice and at home. In the end, we came away with something both unique and compelling, and of the highest quality. Something we’re very much looking forward to sharing with fans.”
