If you're like us here at The Spanish Announce Table, you're busy (or lazy) and don't have the time to follow along with all the various professional wrestling news websites and stay up-to-date, with up-to-the minute, breaking news.
We can, however, skim through the various articles of all of YESTERDAY'S news; and give you all the tidbits and links you need to know to stay up-to-date on YESTERDAY'S NEWS!
STROWMAN CANT WIN; NOT ALLOWED TO LOSE
Pretty much every wrestling news outlet covered this story, and the basic idea being put out is that WWE isn't ready for Strowman to win the Universal Title and they also don't want him to LOSE at The Royal Rumble. Therefore, they pulled him in this way, to not make him look weak, and to buy time.
Is any of that true? Well, WWE has made no official statements, and likely won't ever even come close to doing so. So our offiical answer would be: maybe.

JERRY THE KING LAWLER WILL BE ON THE ROYAL RUMBLE COMMENTARY TEAM
According to Ringside News, Jerry The King Lawler will be joining Michael Cole and JBL to provide commentary for the Men's Royal Rumble match.
Also of note, Lawler signed a new WWE contract, something he is accustomed to doing every year. This time, however, Lawler signed for two years.
WWE THOUGHT THE ALEXA BLISS SEGMENT WAS PG-SEXY
Many outlets also covered this story of Alexa Bliss being not-so-covered. The most-discussed idea is that WWE is trying to add back some "Attitude Era-esque" qualities to their show in any way that won't hurt their PG standing.
The YouTube video of the segment reached 1 million views in one day.

SLIGHTLY-MORE THAN ALMOST-NOBODY IS WATCHING RAW
RAW saw a significant ratings jump this week; seeing the highest ratings for the show since September. Of note, Monday Night Football is no longer on, so WWE typically sees significant ratings increases this time of year.
