When WWE announced that Talking Smack would no longer be a weekly series on the WWE Network, no one was more upset than Daniel Bryan and Renee Young. Bryan decided to broadcast his own version of the show called Smacking Talk last week via Tout, but the SmackDown Live General Manager took to Twitter this week to say Smacking Talk has already been shut down.
Sorry everyone, rogue #SmackingTalk only lasted one week before being shutdown. We'll keep on fighting the good fight. @ReneeYoungWWE #TOUT

It’s been a very rough year for former WWE Divas Champion Paige. She’s been on the sidelines for quite a while due to injury, and a few months ago she was targeted in a celebrity photo scandal. She’s also made her fair share of headlines due to her relationship with former WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio.
Many fans out there are wondering if they’ll ever see Paige wrestle inside a WWE ring again, and in the past she has said she intends to fulfill her contract with the company.
WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently commented on Paige’s future in his latest blog, and he noted that he hopes to see the former Divas Champion return to the company someday.
“I’ve got no dog in the hunt on this matter, but since many have asked me about this I’ll simply say that I’d love to see Paige back in the WWE competing with the talented, women’s roster that’s in place. Paige has incredible skills and I only hope that this potential opportunity to resume her career in WWE when she’s healthy is taken seriously by all involved. There is no where else in the world for women wrestlers to do better financially than in WWE. Plus there is no better time to be a women’s wrestler than now in @WWE.”
