Daily News Update – April 16, 2020

By Scott Keith on 16 April 2020

What a day yesterday.

DATELINE: Vince found a new low to sink to as a human being, cutting dozens of talent and agents to save profit margins, after the company publicly bragged about having $500 million in cash on hand and Vince himself was appointed to a special advisor role by Trump to figure out how to get the economy going again.

As I noted yesterday, I had friends at the WWE Network who got fired as a result of this, and they’re contractors, so they get no employment insurance fallback or anything else out of it. Just a deplorable move at the worst possible time.

What else can we add today, really? Here’s some free wrestling.
