Del Wilkes, the pro wrestler who found fame as The Patriot...has died. Wilkes was an All-American football player at the University of South Carolina before finding his way into pro wrestling. His career took him to New Japan, WCW...and the WWF...where he quickly ascended to the main event in 1997 as a championship challenger to Bret Hart. Wilkes reportedly died after suffering a heart attack on Thursday. Del Wilkes was 59. (STINGER: WWE) We could get another entrant tonight for the men's Money In The Bank ladder match. A qualifying match is set for tonight's SmackDown: Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn in a Last Man Standing Match. WWE officially announced Thursday that it will bring SmackDown to New York's Madison Square Garden on September 10th. Qualifying matches for the NXT Breakout Tournament will be held on tonight's 205 Live: Guru Raaj vs. Andre Chase...and Desmond Troy vs. Joe Gacy. WWE announced a new class of international recruits for its Performance Center on Thursday. All three come from Asia. The identity of “Blair Davenport” was revealed on Thursday's NXT UK. It is indeed the former Bea Priestley. Tyler Bate is still the Heritage Cup Champion. He beat Jack Starz. The first challenger for the new NXT UK Women's Champ Meiko Satomura appears to be Amale...who ran over Nina Samuels to get face-to-face with Satomura in the ring. Satomura then put down Amale with a forearm. Jordan Devlin submitted A-Kid in the main event...and Emilia McKenzie pinned Isla Dawn. (STINGER: ROH) Shane Taylor Promotions will defend the Ring Of Honor 6-Man Titles at the Best In The World pay per view...against the team of Dalton Castle, Dak Draper and Eli Isom. This weekend's ROH TV has Jonathan Gresham defending the Pure Title against Fred Yehi. Plus, the Fight On The Farm...between Jay and Mark Briscoe. (STINGER: Impact) Kenny Omega returned to Impact Wrestling last night. He teamed with the Good Brothers in the main event...to beat Tommy Dreamer's team of Sami Callihan, Moose and Chris Sabin, who took the pin. Dreamer's team was in disarray toward the end. Rachael Ellering pinned Tenille Dashwood. After the match, Dashwood and Kaleb With A K tried to attack Ellering and Jazz...but Jordynne Grace ran down to make the save...and then embraced Ellering. It appears they've mended fences...at least, for now. Chris Bey pinned Petey Williams with the Art Of Finesse. There was a melee after the match, which saw Bey side with Williams and the rest of the good guys. The advertised match between Satoshi Kojima and Eddie Edwards never happened. W. Morrissey revealed he jumped Edwards in the parking lot. So, instead we got Kojima and Jake Something vs. Brian Myers and Sam Beale. Kojima pinned Beale. (STINGER: New Japan) Tonight's New Japan Strong...has Fred Rosser vs. Bateman. Plus, Lio Rush vs. Adrian Quest. Back in Japan, the final show of the Kizuna Road tour is being held Friday...with the NEVER 6-Man Titles on the line in the main event. It's a free show on New Japan World. Round 7 of Major League Wrestling's Open Draft on Thursday revealed that Matt Cross is joining the league under the Azteca Underground banner.

Today on The Neil Haley Show's Caregiver Dave Celebrity Segment, The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview  WWE Superstar 'The Patriot' Del Wilkes  Del Wilkes was Born December 21, 1961 and is an American retired professional wrestler, better known by his ring name, The Patriot. Over the course of his nine-year career, Wilkes wrestled for the American Wrestling Association, the Global Wrestling Federation, All Japan Pro Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling, and the World Wrestling Federation. After leaving the WWF, Wilkes retired due to torn triceps. Since leaving the business, Del admitted that he had used steroids and cocaine during his career, starting with his college football days. He spent nine months in prison in 2002 for forging a prescription due to his addiction to painkillers. As of July 2007, Del has since quit drugs and is a car salesman in Columbia, South Carolina at Dick Smith Nissan where he also resides with his wife Cathy. In a July 25, 2007 interview with WACH reporter Justin Kier, Del discussed his career, steroid use, the Chris Benoit tragedy, and various other topics. Kier's last two questions involved saying goodbye to the fans and giving advice to youngsters in the wrestling business. Del urged young wrestlers to "learn from our mistakes." He said that 50 people who he once worked with in the wrestling business are now dead.
