Join WhatCulture's Andy H. Murray and Phil Chambers as they bring you Friday's rundown of all the latest wrestling news.
We begin today's video on some unfortunate news, as former WWE and WCW wrestler Del 'The Patriot' Wilkes passes away at 59 years old (00:38), having suffered what local press have described as a "massive heart attack." Rest in peace to The Patriot, and our thoughts go out to his family.
From there, we talk Vince McMahon's visit to the WWE Performance Center yesterday (02:25), which has been described as a "breath of fresh air" despite a few pre-trip concerns.
We've got some bold words from Roman Reigns after that, as he waxes lyrical on being "the best wrestler in the world" (04:24).
Finally, it looks, unfortunately, like WWE's recent run of cuts is about to become a more common occurrence as the company passes into a new era (06:57), having already shed dozens of personnel in 2021.
