“Switchblade” Jay White is one of the pillars of New Japan Pro Wrestling. He’s a five-time world champion with the promotion, with his most recent title reign, with the IWGP World Championship, coming to an end at Wrestle Kingdom 17, the leader of Bullet Club, and the self-proclaimed “Catalyst of Professional Wrestling” for having his […]

After trying to get A.J. Styles to turn to the dark side of the Heel-Babyface paradigm for weeks, Finn Balor finally got a chance to face off against his fellow former Bullet Club leader at a WWE “Premium Live Event” and needless to say, the match was great. Sandwiched between a firey female WarGames match […]

When Michael Cole ran through the histories of A.J. Styles and Finn Balor, not just in WWE but in New Japan Pro Wrestling, where the duo were both members and eventually leaders of Bullet Club, it proved one thing and one thing only: this isn’t your Daddy’s WWE. Now sure, it’s borderline impossible to accurately […]

When Paul “Triple H” Levesque took over primary booking duties for WWE from his father-in-law, Vince McMahon, it turned Vincent M. McMahon’s company into the wild, wild west. Sure, some acts would be elevated, with Bayley returning at SummerSlam with Dakota Kai and IYO SKY to form the team eventually nicknamed Damage CTRL, while others, […]

For the better part of a month, Finn Balor wanted nothing more than to add A.J. Styles to Judgement Day. On paper, the pairing made perfect sense; Balor and Styles are the first two leaders of New Japan’s Bullet Club faction, and, as any true wrestling fan already knows, Bullet Club is forever. Though their […]

When Edge gets into the ring with any opponents, regardless of age, experience, or pedigree, he’s going to give it all he has. After putting his career on hold for almost a decade, not by choice but by medical necessity, the man born Adam Copeland is embracing his second life in the WWE ring by […]

It wouldn’t be an Extreme Rules “Premium Live Event” if WWE didn’t bring out the “Rated-R Superstar,” Edge, for another hardcore match with a fun stipulation. But what would it be? Tables? Ladders? Chairs? Well, on the Edmonton edition of RAW, fans got their answer, as Edge charged out of the back after the main […]

While Finn Balor and his Judgement Day brothers – and sister – in arms lost the battle at WWE’s Clash at the Castle in their tag team bout versus Edge and Rey Mysterio, the team ultimately won the war, as Dominik Mysterio, “Mr. 619’s” son, officially turned on his father and delivered a stiff close […]

“You know who I am.” These words, spoken by Finn Balor to Bronn Breaker in his much-anticipated return to NXT, could hardly be heard over the cheers of a crowd very much excited to see the longest-reigning champion in the brand’s history return to their television screens. “And I’m also the guy who’s held that […]

When a certain vignette started airing on WWE television, first at Money in the Bank and then on basically every single media channel the Billion Dollar Brand has at their disposal, it felt like only a matter of time before Edge made his way back into the ring. Though the video didn’t explicitly announce the […]

After months of buildup, card changes, and… oh yeah, the retirement of Vince McMahon after four decades on top of Titan Towers, SummerSlam is officially here. Fans will get to see who is the Last Man Standing, see if Judgement gets passed, and finally find out who will be the focal point of the RAW […]

After weeks of back and forth tag team bouts with The Mysterios – Rey, and Dominik – on WWE‘s RAW, Judgement Day finally returned to full strength at Madison Square Garden, where, after dropping another match to the first father-son tag team champions in WWE history, none other than Rhea Ripley took to the backstage […]

After the “Cena Celebration” live from Laredo, Texas was a responding success, it’s only right that the WWE Universe returns to the idea again to celebrate another one of the promotion’s longest-tenured stars in Rey Mysterio in a celebration of his own, broadcast live from the wrestling mecca, Madison Square Garden on July 25th. NEXT […]

As things presently stand, Bobby Lashley is WWE‘s United States Champion. Now granted, that could change as soon as SummerSlam, as he has a rematch booked with Theory for the red, white, and blue belt and may ultimately see his reign capped off at 28 days, for now, “The Almighty One” is the champion, and […]

Despite only being established earlier this year, the budding WWE faction Judgment Day has already experienced a series of swerves that completely changed their makeup. After beating him at Hell in a Cell the night before, Finn Balor joined Edge, Damien Priest, and Rhea Ripley on Raw, just before the group turned on their founder […]

On Monday’s episode of WWE Raw, budding heel group Judgment Day gained, and then immediately lost, a member. Judgment Day is one of the more recent examples of a spooky-flavored faction in wrestling that was formed by Edge, a Superstar unafraid to tap into his Brood-roots. Complete with a black and purple color scheme and […]
