Here is your fight size update for Monday, September 20, 2021.
- During his recent appearance on the Out of Character podcast with Ryan Satin, Cesaro opened up about the one element of his feud with Roman Reigns that he did not like. There was no live crowd.
"Do you know what I was disappointed about? I wish it would have been in front of fans. That's like the one thing was I was like, that match, the build-up, everything. I wish it would have been in front of fans."
He continued, "I feel like that whole build-up from the first match with Bryan to essentially WrestleMania, it was like, I was able to somehow create that momentum. I did the Talking Smack promo and that carried the Roman match. I felt like that in front of a crowd. You know what it would have been great. But you know, things happen. Do you know what I mean? So we made the best of it. Hopefully, we can run it back one day."

- Speaking with Riju Dasgupta of Sportskeeda, Rich Swann explained that he would like a dream tag team match at Bound for Glory with either The Lucha Brothers or The Young Bucks or both.

- Tommy Dreamer has been pulled from Busted Open Radio following his comments during the most recent episode of Dark Side of the Ring and currently, there is no timetable for his return
- Rory Karpf, who directed the Ric Flair 30 For 30 special on ESPN, spoke with Wrestling Inc and discussed the allegations and backlash that have surfaced following the most recent episode of Dark Side of the Ring.
“I’d never heard that he had forced someone to touch his genitals. Everything with Ric that was construed as negative I tried to address in the 30 for 30. His drinking, his philandering, his adultery, his money problems, there’s quite a bit, but never, at least in the people that I spoke to, no one ever brought up that he would force himself on somebody. I did hear about him exposing himself, which to me is still troubling, very troubling behavior, and that is addressed in the 30 for 30.”
- Adam Cole continues to disapprove of Britt Baker's relationship with Tony Schiavone
- Scout Comics has removed all references to Ric Flair appearing at their booth at the New York Comic Con next month. Fightful will continue to monitor the story and report any and all updates.
