Subscribers can now read this week’s earlier-than-usual edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

The lead story is the passing of the legendary Afa Anoaʻi with a look at his wrestling life and times, how he got into wrestling, titles won, and lots more.

I also look at this Sunday’s AEW All In, some of the various announcements that Tony Khan has made and is promising to make, including a new TV rights deal.
