If there’s one person who is not particularly cheery about working alongside CM Punk in 2023, it’s Seth Rollins.

After officially retiring from the WWE in 2006 and being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2013, few expected to see Trish Stratus back in the professional wrestling world for more than a cup of coffee in 2023, as she was initially brought back to serve as emotional support for the tag team […]

Since securing a role in NXT and especially since landing the head creative role in NXT, Shawn Michaels has pretty much seen, not to mention booked, it all.

Drew McIntyre has been a member of the WWE Universe, at least this go around, since 2017, when he parlayed a revolutionary run on the indies into an impressive run through NXT and a return to the main roster at the Royal Rumble 2019.

When Shawn Michaels took over for his long-time DX partner Paul “Triple H” Levesque as the leader of NXT, he was given the unenviable task of getting more eyes on WWE’s developmental product.
