On another Orton-related note, photos were posted on Twitter of Orton consoling Shane McMahon&#8217;s family at ringside when Shane was legitimately rocked by the bump he took from Roman Reigns&#8217;s spear at the Survivor Series. If Bray Wyatt sees any of this, I wonder if he&#8217;ll trust that Orton has really joined the dark side. Oh wait, Bray&#8217;s all over social media out of character, too, so he won&#8217;t care.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>WHEN YOU SHOP <strong>AMAZON<\/strong>, PLEASE START AT OUR AMAZON LAUNCH PAGE.

Sapolsky said he plans to take FIP in a bold new direction. &#8220;FIP is going to be the Wild West,&#8221; Sapolsky stated in a WWN press release. &#8220;When people think of me now, they think of EVOLVE. This is not going to EVOLVE 2.0 at all. It&#8217;s going to add something totally new to The WWN Family.&#8221; Says the FloSlam announcement: &#8220;FIP is a part of the FloSlam lineup, with its next event, &#8216;FIP: Everything Burns 2017,&#8217; taking place Jan. 8 at The Orpheum in Ybor City, Fla. The event will stream live on FloSlam and features such independent stars as FIP Heavyweight Champion Fred Yehi, FIP Florida Heritage Champion Martin Stone, AR Fox and Sami Callihan.
