The WWE Corporation will be facing a class action lawsuit from many former wrestlers citing the company is responsible for the numerous head injuries they sustained in the ring.

Jim LaMotta from PW Mania and Fightbooth joined the Sam Bourquin Show to talk about the suit and when we might be able to see action from either side.

 LaMotta says that the process will drag out in court, but on the surface, this looks like a familiar story.

"This is probably nothing more than a money grab at this point, I highly doubt there will be a payout."

Some of the wrestlers named in the suit include Joe "The Animal" Laurinitas, Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka amongst many others.

WWE Superstar Bray Wyatt joined Brad Russell in the Average Sports Show Friday to talk about his character, what it's like gracing the squared circle in front of thousands, and offering his take on what it will be like to perform live.

"The crowds they travel, just to see the pay-per-view, so they're always a little bit more riotus," he said. "It's true probably with any sporting event, the louder the crowd is, the more response they get from the athletes performing."

As the leader of the "Wyatt Family" Bray says he enjoys the day-to-day grind of the professional wrestling business, and he'll be on hand when the Wyatt Family takes on Ryback, Kane, and Big Show in a six-man tag-team match.
