In case you haven’t heard or somehow just woke up from a wrestling hibernation, NXT and AEW are running the same night with week, with the “Tuesday Night Wars” back in full effect thanks to a concerted effort by Paul “Triple H” Levesque, Shawn Michaels, and company to absolutely load up WWE’s developmental program with […]

After announcing a flurry of additions to next week’s NXT card, with John Cena, Asuka, and Cody Rhodes all heading down to Orlando to help guarantee a ratings win over a rare Tuesday edition of AEW Dynamite dubbed Title Tuesday, Shawn Michaels decided to throw one final breadcrumb to the fans who stuck it out […]

Paul Heyman is recognized as one of the greatest managers in the history of professional wrestling. Behind the scenes, he’s a genius when it comes to storytelling. On-screen, he’s one of the most prominent characters who isn’t an actual WWE wrestler. Over the years,  Heyman has managed some of wrestling’s biggest names. Brock Lesnar, CM […]

After watching his best friend Trick Williams stand in the ring with the man who beat him at No Mercy, Ilja Dragunov, Carmelo Hayes was feeling a certain type of way. Sure, he was happy for his friend, as Trick Willie was happy for him during his title reigns, but after being “Him” in their […]

After making his way out to the NXT No Mercy ring wearing Ghost Rider-inspired gear and riding a motorcycle like vintage Undertaker – except his American Bada** looked a lot more like an American Bumba** – Baron Corbin found himself immediately thrust into action by Bron Breakker, who laid out the one-time SmackDown Superstar with […]

When news broke that WWE legend Rick Steiner went on an unprompted transphobic rant directed at former PROGRESS Women’s Champion and current Impact star Gisele Shaw at Los Angeles Wrestlecon, it left many a professional wrestling fans not only disappointed in the former WWF Tag Team Champion’s behavior but completely disinterested in seeing Bron Breakker‘s […]

When Shawn Michaels made his debut for MSW all the way back in 1984, professional wrestling was a very different place. Sure, some things have remained the same to this very day, as Vince McMahon is still more or less in charge of WWE, but the way performers are treated both by promoters and other […]

With NXT’s The Great American Bash rapidly approaching, Shawn Michaels has been working the phones and working his webcam like crazy to help get more eyes on his top stars like Carmelo Hayes, Ilya Dragunov, Tiffany Stratton, and maybe even Bron Breakker, who doesn’t technically have a match on the card just yet but could […]

After two separate stints on the indies, Karrion Kross knows a thing or two about the differences between how WWE likes to put angles together and how companies like Impact, New Japan, Major League Wrestling, and even your local indie opt to run their shows. Some value hard-hitting, shoot-esque action, others, like Lucha Underground – […]

After beating just about everyone NXT has placed in his path, one has to wonder what the WWE Universe has in store for Bron Breakker. Sure, technically, he’s booked for a match against the “Unbesiegbar,” Ilja Dragunov this coming week, with the winner landing a title shot against Carmelo Hayes at The Great American Bash […]

Despite being arguably the most polished performer in the WWE developmental system, Bron Breakker did not hear his name called during the 2023 WWE Draft, with the second-generation Steiner remaining in NXT to continue to develop his revolutionary new “Meaner than Evil” heel character. And yet, just because Steiner still reports to the Performance Center […]

After two weeks of anticipation, Seth Rollins finally got in the ring with Bron Breakker at NXT Gold Rush, and needless to say, he tore the roof off the Performance Center in Orlando. Taking the ring second to his familiar war chorus demanding that “The Visionary” does everything in his power to “burn it down” […]

This was supposed to be a very busy week for Seth Rollins in the WWE Universe. First, he was supposed to have an open WWE World Heavyweight Championship challenge on RAW, with The Miz suggesting that he was going to take on the offer in front of his hometown crowd before taking a redeye to […]

While conventional wisdom may have suggested that he’d be back in Orlando preparing for the self-proclaimed “biggest match of his career,” Bron Breakker instead decided to fly out to Cleveland to scout Seth Rollins ahead of their match at NXT Gold Rush. Unfortunately for Breakker, he didn’t get to see a WWE World Heavyweight Championship […]

When Seth Rollins officially accepted Bron Breakker‘s challenge for a match at what would eventually be called NXT Gold Rush, fans across the WWE Universe turned their heads. Now granted, not because they actually believed that Breakker could win, as any good oddsmaker would place “The Visionary” as a heavy, heavy favorite in the contest, […]

When the WWE Draft rolled around, and Paul “Triple H” Levesque let it be known that select NXT starts were going to be eligible for the proceedings, fans tabbed one performer above all others as a natural fit to hear his name called and take his assignment to either RAW or SmackDown: Bron Breakker. On […]

After laying out Ilja Dragunov following his in-ring back and forth with Baron Corbin, Bron Breakker decided to take the boldest shot of his career and demand a World Heavyweight Championship shot against none other than Seth “Freakin’” Rollins, who is currently the top guy on RAW. On paper, the decision was calculated; Breakker is […]

When Bron Breakker decided to seemingly go rogue and invite Seth Rollins down to NXT to defend his WWE World Heavyweight Championship, it sent more than a few fans wondering if the second-generation Steiner had lost his marbles. Now first and foremost, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship is supposed to belong to the RAW brand, […]

After months of anticipation and verbal feuds on and off of official WWE platforms, Seth Rollins and Logan Paul finally got to mix it up in the ring at WrestleMania 39 for more than a few seconds in the Royal Rumble, or at the end of an Elimination Chamber match at its namesake Premium Live […]

After watching Baron Corbin and Ilja Dragunov have a proverbial war of words on the microphone in the lead-up to what appears to be an extended stay in developmental for the man who was formerly friends with JBL, Bron Breakker decided to insert himself into the action and beat “Unbesiegbar” to a pulp, leaving him […]

Though his current contract status in AEW is unclear, before Ace Steel was #AllElite, fighting with CM Punk on-screen to help him get in the zone ahead of All Out and then fighting alongside “The Best in the World” in an all-out war with The Elite in the locker room, he was a trainer in […]

With Night of Champions officially in the books, WWE has one more “Premium Live Event” for fans to enjoy over their Memorial Day Weekend, NXT Battleground, where the next generation of young, hungry stars will test their mettle, prove their worth, and hopefully come out on top just like Seth Rollins, Asuka, Gunther, Sami Zayn, […]

Carmelo Hayes has been a member of the WWE Universe since all the way back in 2021, when he turned in his Christian Casanova card to take a shot at WWE supremacy. Since then, he’s gone from a standout on 205 Live to a regular on NXT proper, where he became the only man in […]

With the 2023 WWE draft rapidly approaching, fans, pundits, and Superstars alike have begun to wonder how the forthcoming two-night event will change the very fabric of The Fed and on which show their favorite performer will be working next, on RAW with Corey Graves and Kevin Patrick or on SmackDown with Michael Cole and […]

When Bron Breakker lost his match to Carmelo Hayes at NXT Stand and Deliver on WrestleMania 39 weekend, most fans assumed it meant one thing and one thing only: “Baby Steiner” was heading to the WWE Main Roster. On paper, it made sense, right? WWE loves to bring in new stars from free agency and […]

Now that (almost) a week has passed since WrestleMania 39 weekend, WWE fans and experts alike are starting to evaluate the show and determine who had huge weekends and who maybe didn’t meet the mark. In the opinion of Dave Meltzer, the weekend was largely a success, with only one match earning a rating of […]

With WrestleMania 39 officially here, fans were afforded a few hours extra hours of wrestling earlier in the day at Stand and Deliver, when the best performers NXT has to offer showcased their talents as they prepare for the big time and a main roster push. For some, this was the start of something new, […]

When Bron Breakker bested Jinder Mahal on free NXT for the WWE Universe to see, it didn’t quite feel like as big of a deal as it probably should have. Sure, Mahal is a former WWE Champion and has been featured on some of the biggest stages in the world, but Mahal hasn’t been regarded […]

After watching Bron Breakker best Jinder Mahal to maintain his NXT World Championship reign, fans at home were treated to an interesting encounter where the channel “changed” from Peacock to WWE in a bit of television trickery that would make Tubi’s Super Bowl ad proud. Watching the magic remote select the Stand and Deliver video […]

After calling next on Bron Breakker and the NXT World Championship at the end of Vengeance Day, with the match more or less pinned for the main event of Stand and Deliver on WrestleMania 39 weekend in Los Angeles, California, Carmelo Hayes had to watch on in horror as none other than Jinder Mahal, the […]

Bron Breakker is more or less set for a match with Carmelo Hayes at Stand and Deliver on WrestleMania weekend. Now sure, technically, something interesting could happen, like Paul “Triple H” Levesque kicking the match to the main WrestleMania 39 card in order to put the “Second Generation Steiner” and the “A-Champ” in front of […]

Though he technically lost to Bron Breakker in 2023, twice actually, at New Year’s Evil and Vengeance Day, for some reason, Grayson Waller blames it all on Shawn Michaels, NXT’s head of creative, who booked him in both bouts. After getting in HBK’s face after Vengeance Day during the media scrum that resulted in a […]

The WWE is filled with many young up-and-coming talents with a bright future ahead of them. There are some superstars who you know will become world champions one day. At the same time, some superstars need a little more work before being thrown into the main event scene. With Triple H in charge of creative, […]

After taking care of business against Grayson Waller at NXT Vengeance Day, Bron Breakker had a lot to say backstage, even if he said most of it while attempting to catch his breath. He complimented the crowd, complemented the WWE Universe, and even complimented the atmosphere of the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. “Ah, […]

Bron Breakker is one tough you-know-what. A second-generation star with just about the best pedigree one could imagine within WWE – even if he doesn’t use the Steiner last name – Breakker has won almost every match he’s wrestled in the promotion and has a winning record against every single performer on the NXT roster […]

After two months of anticipation, Vengeance Day is here; soon the NXT sub-galaxy will find out who will be its champion head into the future, Bron Breakker or Grayson Waller, which member of Toxic Attraction unseats Roxanne Perez as Women’s Champion, assuming one does, and whether Dijak’s bite is a tough as his bark. Taking […]

Grayson Waller is on the cusp of fully cementing his legacy in NXT and becoming one of the top prospects, if not the top prospect, period, in the WWE developmental system; all he has to do is beat Bron Breakker, the second-generation Steiner and two-time NXT World Champion, to win the belt at the first […]

After closing out the WWE calendar year with Deadl1ne, NXT has been afforded the first named show of 2023 in New Year’s Evil, a show that technically isn’t a “Premium Live Event” – the next NXT PLE isn’t until Vengence Day in February – but features a card worthy of a commercial-free experience thanks to […]

When Apollo Crews headed down to NXT in June of 2022 after a run as “The Nigerian Prince,” fans of WWE wondered what the future held for the former IC Champion. Would he serve as a mid-card barometer, filling the role previously held by performers like Eric Young before they were fired? Or did creative […]
