CTE scans and head injuries are issues that have received heightened attention in recent times, after former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan was forced to retire due to numerous concussions and brain trauma.
Now Nash has revealed that he too has suffered from concussions, which have led him to suffering from short term memory problems.
Speaking to ESPN.com’s Michael Rothstein, Big Sexy said: “Chris Nowinski started the program and I’ve had several concussions throughout my life and had scans done and stuff and knew that somewhere down the line, I’ve already had short-term memory problems. I decided to go ahead. The only way you can diagnose this is after you’re dead.”

This match was originally scheduled for this year's WrestleMania, but Dean Ambrose was moved into the Wyatt spot prior to the Fastlane PPV. Wyatt does not have a WrestleMania opponent as of yet, but it's expected that he and the rest of the Wyatt Family will compete in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.

The reason WWE was so vague on the issue is because while it was nasal surgery and the angle is that he had a shattered nose, the surgery was for something different. We don’t know for certain what the nature of the surgery was, only that the photos he showed were consistent with the aftermath of surgery for a deviated septum. Right now he’s advertised for the 3/7 Raw in Chicago, 3/12 Roadblock show in Toronto, but not the 3/14 TV in Pittsburgh

So they are not looking for anyone to think he’s a face or planning a face turn, at least at this point. As of mid-week, nothing had changed and Reigns was scheduled to win the title at Mania and be the main event face at the 2017 and 2018 Mania

I know we could definitely do that.”. . Barrett has been fully cleared as he was working good back-and-forth house show matches with Neville over the weekend

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter notes this week that the son of WWE owner Vince McMahon attempted to put together a consortium to take over the club, but ultimately a deal never materialised.
Rumors from a few years ago actually suggested Vince McMahon wanted to buy the club but at the time it appeared to be fanciful journalism, but may now have stemmed from a real situation where Shane McMahon wanted to buy out Mike Ashley. The deal wouldn’t have had any WWE connection, it would have been a Shane project.
Whether he’ll one day return with a bid for an English Premier League football side is unknown. He’s back with WWE for a short term run as a performer, but he’s in no way back in the wrestling business.
Shane also considered buying the MMA group RINGS, and there were also rumours that he thought about buying PRIDE before UFC stepped in. He’s always wanted to prove himself, whether it was in WWE or outside WWE. However, he’s still waiting for his first major business success. As for WWE, Stephanie McMahon and Triple H are now firmly established in the heir to Vince McMahon spot.

I will be monitored every 3 months over the next couple of years as there is a possibility that the cancer can come back. It will be a while before I can say I'm cancer free."
