Wrestling Observer Live: Jack Perry returns at NJPW Battle in the Valley

I am back with another Sunday edition of Wrestling Observer Live.

Saturday was a crazy night in wrestling as the newly-rebranded TNA ran its Hard to Kill pay-per-view in Las Vegas, NJPW had Battle in the Valley in San Jose, and AEW ran both Collision and Battle of the Belts IX in Norfolk, Virginia.

I break down the highlights from all these shows, including surprises from Jack Perry and Nic Nemeth who both showed up in new places.

Also, I give my thoughts about WWE SmackDown from Friday with the building tension between Bayley and her Damage CTRL teammates, and the latest on the Bloodline Saga which leads into the build to this year’s Royal Rumble which takes place in just two weeks.

Plus, I talk the latest on Mercedes Mone, the timeline of her next appearance, and whether she is still AEW-bound.
