Impact is promising New AEW World Champion Kenny Omega WILL appear on its program TONIGHT. On Twitter, Impact exec Don Callis says he and Omega \\u201cwill shock the world again.\\u201d It\\u2019s been less than a week since Callis helped Omega win the AEW title from Jon Moxley.

\\n\\n

Tonight\\u2019s AEW Dark has 16 matches, including Brian Cage vs Danny Limelight. Jurassic Express and Nyla Rose are also in action.

\\n\\n

And late word Monday night from AEW that Shaquille O\\u2019Neal will appear on Wednesday night\\u2019s Dynamite.

\\n\\n

The fallout from Sunday night\\u2019s NXT Takeover Wargames includes a list of injuries.

\\n\\n

The hardest hit appears to be Candice LeRae. Her husband Johnny Gargano tweeted a pic of both of them. Candice had x-rays on what could be a broken arm. Gargano himself said he received stitches in his mouth.

\\n\\n

Meanwhile, Oney Lorcan also tweeted a pic showing stitches about his left eye.

\\n\\n

And then there\\u2019s Pat McAfee\\u2026 who showed up for his radio show Monday wearing a neckbrace.

McAfee said he\\u2019s awaiting results on tests he received earlier in the day. He dove from the top of the cage not once - but twice - during the main event Wargames match Sunday night, which his team lost.

Fans of The Rascalz were scratching their heads when only two-thirds of the group - Dezmond Xavier and Zachary Wentz - were announced as part of the new class at the WWE Performance Center. On Twitter, the third Rascal, Trey Miguel, shared an update of sorts. He said his focus right now is on his nephew, who was born prematurely a month and a half ago.
