CBS enfrenta una queja por "distorsión de las noticias"
La policía de “desinformación” son los verdaderos criminales en esta elección, culpables de maquillar, distorsionar y alterar los hechos para adaptarlos a su verdadera agenda: detener a Donald Trump y elegir a Kamala Harris. A medida que se acerca el día de las elecciones, cada vez más estadounidenses comprenden que los medios de comunicación que alguna vez fueron confiables como fuentes de…

Phil Mushnick is a self-moralistic asshole. He's a racist in articles against Jay-Z and Chance the Rapper. His involvement in this is skewed.
He singularly pushed the false info publicly that Pat Patterson was involved with Terry Garvin and Mel Phillips in their sex abuse of ring boys. But it was proven false through independent investigations.
He was never charged or even formally accused of anything.
Murry Hodgson was trying to blackmail Pat Patterson to publicly out him. He filed sexual harassment charges, but we're dropped after that investigation.
Can't trust Phil Mushnick either, even if Vince is not nearly an angel. Can't trust piece of shit calling a piece of shit a piece of shit. It's all shit. 😅
They didn't mention John Laurinaitis' sexual harassment and covering up Ashley Massaro's rape at the troops tribute show.
John Laurinaitis had been bothering female employees and nitro girls, and female wrestlers since he was an executive in WCW! Even when he was a shit wrestler.
He's even thrown Vince under the bus when the lawsuit came out last year. Then joined Vince's counter suit like a liar sycophant.

ELECTION INTERFERENCE: The recent 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris exemplifies election interference dressed up as journalistic production. CBS didn't just break the rules of responsible journalism—they obliterated them—by creating two different versions of some interview clips. The initial teaser showed Harris in a light that sparked backlash, but instead of responding transparently, CBS aired an altered version for the full episode. This isn’t mere negligence; it's an orchestrated attempt to manipulate the candidate's image for public consumption in the run-up to the election.
This is no minor lapse in journalistic integrity; it is calculated deception. By deploying different versions of Harris's responses, CBS reshaped the narrative to protect her, thus undermining the audience's ability to judge her candidacy accurately. The American people deserve an immediate apology, a release of the unedited interview, and a thorough explanation. Wendy McMahon and Shari Redstone must address this flagrant breach. Anything less reveals the manipulation was not an accident but a deliberate act to influence voters under the guise of unbiased journalism.

CBS News has a fine heritage and some great news talent, but the folks in charge seem determined to destroy its reputation.
Start with the ludicrous blowback to CBS Mornings host Tony Dokoupil’s Sept. 30 interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates, in which Dokoupil pressed Coates on crucial facts he’d left out of his new anti-Israel book, such as the fact that the Jewish state is “surrounded by countries that want to eliminate it.”
They were all completely reasonable questions to ask about a polemic of its author, an intellectual who certainly should be able to defend his work.
But other network staff were furious at this act of Journalism 101: You’re not supposed to question lefties about their claims, it seems.
Surely they weren’t angry just because Coates is black, or anti-Israel?
Whatever: The suits pulled Dokoupil into a meeting with CBS News standards and practices team and its “Race and Culture Unit,” and reportedly chewed him out on a staff call, claiming his questioning of Coates didn’t meet CBS’ “editorial standards.”
CBS News CEO Wendy McMahon and her lieutenant Adrienne Roark reprimanded him for bringing “bias” to the interview, but failed to explain exactly how.
The re-education effort was also to feature a followup staff meeting moderated by Dr. Donald Grant, whom management called a “mental health expert, DEI strategist and trauma trainer” — but that got squelched after outside critics exposed Grant as wacko whose social-media posts include a racist smear of Sen. Tim Scott.
Meanwhile, Coates on a Trevor Noah podcast suggested that Gayle King (who was also sitting in on the interview, along with Nate Burleson) had told him before the sitdown what she planned to ask.
That sounds a lot more like a violation of good news practice than what Dokoupil did, but there’s no sign of any trouble for King.
Then came Bill Whitaker’s entirely professional interview of Kamala Harris, where she time and again dodged any substantial answers, prompting him to follow up, only for the Democratic candidate for president to dissolve into fresh word-salads and other evasions.
Once again, the higher ups felt compelled to intervene — by blatantly editing the package to make Harris look less awful.
Yes, blatantly: Soon after taping, the network released the raw footage of her hopeless answer to a question about Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu.
But by the time it aired that night, they’d edited in a “response” that was actually pulled from earlier in the conversation, and so make her seem more competent and less, well, Harris-y.
That is: CBS literally faked the “news.”
The editing also featured dubbing in narration by Whitaker over some of her responses, thereby burying more of the inconvenient truths revealed by the interview.
It’s hard to blame the Trump campaign for demanding that CBS release the raw transcript: It’d be one honorable response to being exposed as blatantly partisan hacks.
All this, incidentally, follows the thumb-on-the-scale work of CBS’ moderators in the J.D. Vance-Tim Walz debate, including Margaret Brennan’s utterly partisan and counter-factual “fact-check” of Vance.
CBS should be proud of Dokoupil and Whitaker’s work, ashamed of King and Brennan, yet management instead seems determined to teach up-and-comers to avoid honest journalism.
Ultimate owner Sheri Redstone has publicly supported Dokoupil and implicitly slammed the suits who came down on him.
Redstone’s trying to sell off CBS, but she might want to demand a management housecleaning now, since the folks running the news division seem determined to mis-manage its value down to zero.

Inside Wrestling: November 1989
ON ASSIGNMENT
BY LIZ HUNTER
[Sherri would love to step into the ring against Elizabeth, but whose side would Randy Savage be on? The “Macho Man” might still be in love with his former manager.]
SENSATIONAL SHERRI. Randy Savage. Elizabeth. Hulk Hogan. Brutus Beefcake. Zeus. As the main characters in the WWF soap opera gear up for SummerSlam, it is impossible not to wonder what the women are up to. Is Elizabeth secretly training for a showdown against Sherri? Does Sherri secretly pine for the “Macho Man’s” hand in marriage? Is Hogan’s own marriage feeling the strains of his association with Elizabeth? Are these really the questions that wrestling fans are burning to know? Rumors sweeping the WWF suggest Elizabeth may retire from active managing to work full-time alongside Vince McMahon in the broadcast booth. Will this incite Linda McMahon into violent fits of jealousy? Okay, it does get ridiculous, but this is the WWF, where everyday is like a Saturday-morning cartoon.
In my opinion, Sensational Sherri is the perfect antidote to Savage’s romantic woes. Theirs is clearly a business relationship, unlike the explosive association Savage and Elizabeth had. Martel is a capable bodyguard who, as a woman, enjoys a tremendous advantage, since many of Savage’s opponents refuse to strike her despite her continued interference.
Elizabeth was a brilliant strategist whose role was reduced to that of a showpiece–and ultimately, a love object. In theory, the Savage-Elizabeth alliance began as a business partnership, but degenerated quickly into a thicket of irreconcilable emotions. The entire affair smacked of Danielle Steel. Other wrestlers, lifelong friends of the “Macho Man,” watched in disbelief as their colleague’s addiction deepened.
“It was never really good for Savage,” one friend said. “From the beginning, he was in love with her. It made him a better wrestler, but at the price of his soul She ripped his guts out on a daily basis. He became increasingly paranoid.”
“Sherri is helping him heal. The best therapy for Savage has always been the ring. But there’s no telling what he might do when he confronts Elizabeth.”
Is there a woman in all of wrestling who would not trade places with Sensational Sherri? The ex-champion may be the sole beneficiary of all this girl-boy lunacy.
[Former WWF women’s champion Sensational Sherri viciously attacks Rockin’ Robin. Elizabeth, who’s never wrestled, would be slaughtered by this woman.]
“Martel loves to wrestle and compete,” said Buddy Rose, whom Martel managed to the AWA World tag team title. “And she loves the spotlight. The problem for her was how to gain the exposure her skills deserve. She hit on the perfect solution. The trouble is that she has to work alongside an ugly lunatic like Savage.”
One intriguing scenario has Elizabeth training for a showdown against Sherri (for more on this, see the story on page 34). While the idea is dismissed by most wrestling critics as absurd, Elizabeth herself has never denied the possibility.
“People look at Elizabeth and can’t get beyond her beauty,” said ex-WWF champion Wendi Ritcher. “They see this soft, sensual, essentially helpless little girl. Even the idea of her being able to manage Savage’s day-to-day affairs was incongruous with her image.
“The truth, though, is that behind the delicate facade, Elizabeth is a tiger. It took more than a sweet smile to keep Savage in line all these years. It would take a lot of training, but if she put her mind to it, I'm sure she could do it.”
Nothing would please Sensational Sherri more than a showdown against the lovely Elizabeth. “Sherri is very insecure about her looks,” Rose said. “She’d be constantly comparing herself to other women. Face it, pro wrestling takes its toll. If you get your face bashed in every night, you’re not going to look like Heather Locklear. Elizabeth will find that out for herself. Those head-turning looks will be sacrificed quickly in the ring. And no one would get the greater satisfaction at rearranging those cheekbones than Sherri.”
The ultimate question remains: What would Randy Savage do if Sherri and Elizabeth locked curls in combat? Known for his undying loyalty, would Savage protect Sherri, who has risked her own skin for him several times? Or would love and passion conquer his sense of obligation?
“If Hogan helped train Elizabeth, then there’s no question Savage would help Sherri,” says Senior Editor Bill Apter. “Savage’s deep-rooted loathing of Hogan would conquer whatever lingering feelings he has for Elizabeth. He would want to punish her to get to him. Or punish him to get to her. It gets very confusing.”
[Elizabeth and Hulk Hogan have become an item in the WWF. Will Hogan’s relationship with Elizabeth affect his marriage? Does Elizabeth secretly still love Savage?]
Manager/wrestler/saucy vixen Missy Hyatt disagrees with Apter’s analysis. “Love hurts, love stinks, but love rules,” she says. “Savage could never possibly hurt Elizabeth. Even the blow he struck was done out of love. If it came to a showdown, his loyalty would be with Elizabeth, even if it meant befriending Hogan again. Of course, he may really be over Elizabeth, even if it meant befriending Hogan again/ OF course, he may really be over Elizabeth, in which case he won’t care what happens to her. It does get confusing.”
It certainly does. Today’s WWF: You can’t tell the players with a program-and a diary.

Various WWF Wrestlers x Fem Reader- "Beulah McGillislutty"
The most iconic women in the WWE are Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair, Asuka, Bayley, the Bella Twins, Paige, Bianca BelAir, Alexa Bliss, Trish Stratus, Lita, Torrie Wilson, Stacy Keibler, and the list goes on.
The most iconic women in the World Wrestling Federation were Chyna, Wendi Richter, Cyndi Lauper, Miss Elizabeth, Sable, Sunny, Lita, Debra, Trish Stratus, Stephanie McMahon, Alundra Blayze, and others, although some of these women were still in the company when it became the WWE.
Yes, the WWF and WWE are technically the same company, but they had different names.
The most iconic women in the original 1990's ECW wrestling company were Beulah McGillicutty, Francine, Nancy Benoit, Dawn Marie, Kimona Wanalaya, and Sunny.
But Beulah and Francine were the most iconic.
Beulah did a nude pornography photoshoot as well as video for Penthouse magazine, and that photoshoot and video were both sexy AF.
You learned about ECW in 1997 when some of the roster crossed over to the World Wrestling Federation in February that year, and while it made you really happy to see some ECW stars---especially some of the sexiest ones--invade the company, it also made you upset they were only there temporarily.
You were signed to the WWF and a part of the roster that year, and you weren't allowed to cross over into other wrestling companies.
You started watching ECW after learning about in February 1997, and learned about Beulah and her Penthouse porn video and photoshoot.
However, in May and June of 1997, one of ECW's stars, Rob Van Dam, was briefly in the World Wrestling Federation and that made you so happy.
He nearly even joined the WWF that year in general.
There were some sexy men in the WWF in 1997, even if they were only there for a little while.
In May of that aforementioned year, shortly after Rob Van Dam joined the WWF, you invited him, Hunter Hearst Helmsley, Shawn Michaels, Jeff Hardy and even Brian Pillman to a hotel room when those men had free time from rehearsing matches and promos.
Those men were the sexiest men in the WWF during that time.
You would also invite Bret Hart and Davey Boy Smith, they're pretty cute too, though Bret probably wouldn't like your performance.
When these men were in your hotel room, Hunter and Shawn all had their long hair hanging down, because they looked sexy AF when their hair isn't tied in ponytails.
Hunter, Shawn, Rob, Brian and Jeff were lounging on the 2 beds in this hotel room, whereas you stood in front of those 2 beds ready to give a performance.
Some of these men, in particular Brian, was laying on those beds, whereas others were sitting on top of the bed.
It would be a little homosexual for a group of men to lay on the same bed.
Not to mention, some of these men were sitting closest to you on these beds so they could see you.
While you stood in front of these men, you were dressed in a lacy, black, spaghetti strapped, skintight see through negligee, similar to the negligee Beulah wore in her porn video.
Even though you didn't have any music playing, you had a rather coy, innocent expression on your face with a slight smirk on your mouth and one of your hands slid across from your left ribcage down to your navel and to your right hip, only for your body to turn around until your back was in front of these men, where you bent your head and torso down until your ass and vulva was sticking out at these male wrestlers.
Your hand was stroking above the fabric of your negligee when it slid from your left ribcage down to your navel and hip, you were acting like how Beulah acted at the beginning of her porn.
Brian, Jeff, Rob, Hunter and Shawn were all looking at you with grins on their faces, satisfied at what they saw.
Shawn, Brian and Rob whistled at you like how men whistle at attractive women.
Brian, Shawn and Rob clapped their hands as they cheered and whistled at you when your ass was sticking out in front of them.
Your vulva was peeping out of your negligee and sandwiched in between your ass cheeks.
You didn't wear any panties under that negligee, much like Beulah in her video.
These men knew you weren't wearing any panties, but Shawn's and Rob's eyes grew wide when they saw a bit of your vulva under your negligee.
You wish other men in other wrestling companies, like Scott Hall, Chris Jericho, Nova from ECW, Raven, Jim Powers from WCW, even Chris Benoit could be in this hotel room to watch your performance, but these men weren't allowed to be in other wrestling companies.
When Rob Van Dam joined the WWF, you told him how you wish some ECW alumni like Nova and Raven were still in the WWF, frowning and pouting when you said that.
You would let Leif Cassidy watch this performance, too bad he grew a tacky handlebar moustache that ruined his looks.
You began to roll your ass around and upwards like how Beulah did in her Penthouse porn video, what you did was throw your ass in a circle basically.
You copied the beginning of Beulah's video, watching and studying everything she did in it.
You had her movements in that video memorized completely.
If you were one of those dancers on "Shotgun Saturday Night" at the beginning of 1997, you would dance like Beulah did at the beginning of the video, but you wouldn't really show your private parts on television, sadly.
Had Beulah's Penthouse tape played with the music playing, this would make your dance much sexier.
You then raised your head as well as your torso upwards until you straightened your body up and stood up, where one of your arms was slung across your navel and your hand was grabbing your hip while your opposite arm was up in the air.
You turned your body around where your arm up in the air buried and slid your fingers down through your hair and you removed your arm and hand off of your stomach, but one of your hands slightly slid the top of your negligee down off of your breast while your other hand was buried at your vulva.
When you did this, your body was bent forward slightly at these men in front of you.
Your fingers were slightly pulling your negligee at your breast off of your tit, nearly exposing your nipple and areola.
You received lots of cheers from all of these men when it seemed like your nipple was getting exposed.
They would chant "Show your tits!", but people next door might hear them.
These men felt free to masturbate to you, which is what they wanted to do.
As they watched this performance, some of them pulled their pants or shorts down and pulled their dicks out, where one of their hands was on their erections and they began to jerk off.
There was a tissue box on the nightstand in between the beds and a wastebasket in between the beds for these men to throw their used tissues in.
Soon, your hands grabbed both of the straps of your negligee, your wrists crossed, and your hands slowly slid your straps down your arms.
You made direct eye contact to these men as you slid both of your straps down in unison.
As the straps of your negligee were being pulled down, more of your bare chest was being exposed in front of them as your negligee slid down your torso.
Some of these men cheered and whistled at you as your negligee was sliding down your navel.
Hopefully no one next door will hear these men cheering and whistling at you as you undress.
While your negligee was wrapped around your waistline (not covering your torso anymore besides your waistline) and your arms and hands elevated out of the straps of your lingerie, your arms--especially your forearms--were folded and crossed below your breasts but your nipples and areolas were slightly exposed in front of these men.
Your arms and forearms unfolded, uncrossed and separated from each other, but your hands cupped your breasts and began to fondle and stroke them, pulling your tits upwards and even together until they touched.
Your hands were stroking your breasts and covering and blocking your areolas and nipples from being seen.
"I'd give her a dollar or more" Shawn said to you.
"Me too!" Rob and Brian chimed in out of unison.
Jeff and Hunter agreed, chiming in "Me too!" out of unison.
They can feel free to throw money at you.
When some of these men were masturbating, precum began to seep out of their slits, but luckily they had a box of tissues with them to share and clean up their messes.
They grabbed a tissue out of the box and even passed the box around so they could grab one.
"Beulah's got nothing on you" Rob Van Dam stated.
"Yeah!" these men agreed, nodding their heads and smiling, these men saying "yeah" not in unison.
Unlike Beulah in her porn video, you didn't lift one of your breasts up with your hand and try to lick your erect nipple.
However, while making eye contact with these men and your head tilted sideways, one of your hands did lift one of your breasts up to your mouth, and your index finger on that hand was elevating towards your mouth, where your tongue escaped out of your mouth and your index finger sliding down the top of your moist tongue.
With your tongue back inside your mouth again, your arms and forearms crossed below your breasts again, only for your forearms to unfold and separate away from each other as your hands joined together at your vulva.
Your vulva was exposed to these men now, your negligee was wrapped around your navel.
Your hands stroked up your bare skin up to your negligee, although one of your hands slid down to your pussy and began to rub it.
Your hand was buried between your thighs and masturbating your vulva.
One of Shawn's and Rob's hands slipped into the pockets of their shorts and pulled out their wallets, where they pulled out some money and tossed it to you.
One of Brian's hands slipped into the pocket of his pants, where he pulled his wallet out and opened it up, where his hand pulled some money out of his wallet and he threw it to you, grinning and laughing when he threw you that money.
You got some cheers from these men when you seemingly rubbed your vulva, only for that hand buried between your thighs to slide out and this time slide up to your body, much to their dismay.
They were disappointed when you seemingly stopped masturbating yourself, but don't worry, they'll get a treat soon enough.
One of your arms was above your head, while your hand on your opposite arm was trying to slide your negligee down your waistline.
Your index and middle fingers were sandwiched in between your negligee and your navel, those fingers seemingly pointing at your vulva and nearly almost looking like they're about to enter it.
You shifted your body sideways, where your hand escaped out of your negligee and your arm slid off of the top of your head.
You placed your hands on your knees when you shifted your body sideways and showed off the side of your body, sticking your ass a little bit out.
You began to roll your ass a little bit while your hands were on your knees, your eyes looking at these men as you rolled your ass.
You removed one of your hands off of your knee and moved that hand behind your ass, where your hand slid up from your ass and elevated up your hip to across your chest.
You watched your hand slide up the side of your body.
"It's amazing how well she's memorized Beulah's porn video" Rob said.
These men agreed, nodding their heads.
To visualize what this fanfic is about, watch Beulah McGillicutty's infamous porn video, and you act exactly like Beulah in the video until she introduces a silver dildo.
You acted exactly like Beulah during this striptease performance for these men except for when she brings out a dildo.
Soon, with your back turned in front of these men, you straddled a chair placed in between your legs.
Before sitting in that chair, you stuck your ass out in front of these men while your head was bent down.
While your ass was sticking out, your hand stroked your vulva in front of them.
You also turned your body around where your legs were spread wide open, one of your legs was up, and your hand was stroking your pussy exposed at these men.
These men jizzed and ejaculated during your performance, where you gave them oral sex after they came.
You, too, came during your performance.
You'd seen those pornographic pictures of Beulah and thought of letting these men fuck you while you're doing those Beulah poses, and you did.
If only you did this recreation of Beulah's porn video and photoshoot on her birthday in March in front of these sexy men.
When other sexy men joined the WWF---Christian Cage, Tommy Rogers, Jerry Lynn, Sean Morley, Chris Jericho, etc., you recreated the beginning of Beulah McGillicutty's porn video to these men privately.
Not to mention, during the Attitude era, you recreated her striptease at the beginning of her Penthouse video when you distracted an opponent as a valet, although you didn't show your breasts or your vulva, unfortunately.
During one of those coming up next segments in the WWF where the guitar riff to Slam Jam's "We're All Together Now" plays, you recreated the beginning of Beulah's Penthouse video as well as some of the pictures from her photoshoot, although your private parts weren't shown.

NXT Fake Rankings, 12/23/2022
Men's singles division - babyfaces
Bron Breakker (NXT men's champion)
Wes Lee (NXT North American champion)
Apollo Crews
Axiom
Odyssey Jones
Xyonn Quinn
Ikemen Jiro
Damon Kemp
Men's singles division - heels
Grayson Waller
Carmelo Hayes
Dijak
Joe Gacy
Von Wagner
JD McDonagh
Scrypts
Charlie Dempsey
Unranked: Dante Chen, Guru Raaj, Hank Walker, Javier Bernal
It's been sixteen months since WWE started dismantling Triple H's vision of NXT, and about five months since Vince McMahon retired and left Triple H in charge of creative. It's telling that almost no one on the roster during the Wednesday Night Wars is still here. I suspect Vince's "up or out" mentality is still in effect, and NXT won't see another long-term mainstay like Johnny Gargano or the Undisputed Era.
On the other hand, I think Solo Sikoa is the only NXT 2.0 performer who has been called up to the main roster. At that rate, it might take a few years to completely turn over the roster again. When Vince was in charge I would have expected Breakker, Jones, and Wagner to get called up by April 2023 whether they were ready or not. As it is, we'll have to wait and see how long Triple H wants everybody to spend in developmental.
Men's tag team division - babyfaces
Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods (NXT men's tag team champions)
Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen
Edris Enofe & Malik Blade
Brutus Creed & Julius Creed
Andre Chase & Duke Hudson
Men's tag team division - heels
Pretty Deadly - Elton Prince & Kit Wilson
Tony D'Angelo & Channing Lorenzo
The Dyad (Jagger Reid and Rip Fowler, formerly James Drake and Zack Gibson) and Indus Sher (Veer Mahan and Sanga, formerly Rinku and Saurav) are featured on TV but haven't wrestled in the past month. I'm surprised they haven't done anything with Gallus (Mark Coffey, Joe Coffey, and Wolfgang), who are apparently still employed but you'd never know it from watching the product.
Women's singles division - babyfaces
Roxanne Perez (NXT women's champion)
Alba Fyre
Wendy Choo
Indi Hartwell
Nikkita Lyons
Fallon Henley
Thea Hail
Women's singles division - heels
Cora Jade
Isla Dawn
Zoey Stark
Elektra Lopez
Kiana James
Unranked: Amari Miller, Lyra Valkyria, Sol Ruca
NXT shot itself in the foot by building the entire women's division around "Mandy Rose is super hot" for 400+ days, and then abruptly releasing her for being too super hot. Having her put over Perez is all well and good, but she could have spent the next year or so giving the rub to several other women.
If you don't want your talent posting nude photos on the internet, you need to pay them enough to make it worth their while. And if you don't want to pay them enough, it makes no sense to push them so strongly. So now Mandy's making a shitload of money and living her best life, and all I can say about NXT's women's roster is "Roxanne and a bunch of nobodies who couldn't beat Mandy."
Women's tag team division - babyfaces
Kayden Carter & Katana Chance (NXT women's tag team champions)
Ivy Nile & Tatum Paxley
Women's tag team division - heels
Toxic Attraction - Gigi Dolin & Jacy Jayne
NXT can still only scrape together three women's tag teams, which is still better than Raw and Smackdown put together, which is kind of sad.
No TV or PPV matches in over 30 days: Jagger Reid, Lash Legend, Oro Mensah, Rip Fowler, Trick Williams, Valentina Feroz
No TV, PPV, or streaming matches in over 30 days: Ava Raine, Boa, Cameron Grimes, Ilja Dragunov, Joe Coffey, Mark Coffey, Meiko Satomura, Nathan Frazer, Quincy Elliott, Roderick Strong, Sanga, Sarray, Tyler Bate, Veer Mahan, Wolfgang
Boa has been on the NXT roster since like 2017, and the only reason I know that is because I keep track of things like that for stuff like this. I don't want anybody to lose their job but I am genuinely perplexed how he survived all the releases over the past three years.
Not listed on NXT roster: Aleah James, Blair Davenport, Noam Dar, Stevie Turner
In August, WWE shut down NXT UK and released much of the roster. Everyone else got reassigned to Original Flavor NXT...except these four, for some reason. WWE.com still lists them as "current superstars" but not for any particular show. I can only guess that several of them are awaiting a rebranding like Aoife Valkyrie/Lyra Valkyria and Oliver Carter/Oro Mensah. But Davenport already has a WWE-owned name, and I haven't heard of her being injured, so I don't know what's up with her.
Inactive
Tiffany Stratton (head - unspecified injury)
Yulisa Leon (right knee - unspecified ligament tear)
I wouldn't be surprised if there are more people sidelined on the NXT roster, but reliable information has gotten harder to find as the brand has become less relevant.
