WOL: Marty Scurll, ROH, Tessa Blanchard, more

Jim Valley is in for Bryan and Mike on this week’s Sunday edition of Wrestling Observer Live.

It’s a very busy news show, including the announcement of Marty Scurll signing with Ring of Honor and becoming head booker of the promotion. Tessa Blanchard challenges for the Impact World Championship amid accusations of racism and bullying from other women’s wrestlers on Twitter.

We also talk about NXT UK Takeover Blackpool II and what it sets up for Worlds Collide during Royal Rumble weekend. We also remember Jesus Huerta Escoboza, who was the most recent La Parka. He passed away from complications of a ring accident from October.

Kazuo Sakurada also passed away at the age of 71. In North America, Sakurada is best known as Kendo Nagasaki in the 80s and The Dragon Master in WCW.

Also, calls on intergender matches, the Royal Rumble, and much more.
