That is allegedly what happened, yes. It would make sense for WWE to shut him out after that - it takes a certain amount of audacity to work TV for a company with the aim of leveraging that into a better deal with a rival promotion, when that company considers itself above competition. I wouldn't consider that unfair, honestly - Storm made his choice and he profited handsomely from it, by all accounts.

I really hope that when he goes main roster, Black's version of finn balor's demon mode is that he comes out in full corpse paint and black leather with a battle axe and looks exactly like a member of EMPEROR

He did this entrance in Progress, sans battle axe, for a title match. The crowd threw exclusively black streamers too.

Edit: Image quality sucks

I really wonder what the thinking was for her (and I think Peyton too) to get boob jobs, especially giant ones like that. I thought WWE were done pressuring people to do that but then again since most of the same people are still there, maybe not

People get cosmetic surgery for reasons other than being talked or pressured into it. Maybe she's just always wanted a huge chest and only now has the disposable income to act on it. Or I dunno, hell, maybe a writer really wants to reintroduce her as Dana's long-lost Australian cousin. It could be either, or anything in between. As long as she likes 'em, good for her.

She shouldn't ditch the shimmery cape, though.

There was absolutely no value in her character before, so a straight reboot is fine.

To be completely fair, I would be behind a gimmick where some guy came out and suplexed an actual live gator before a match.
