When The Miz invited “John Cena” into the ring for a very special edition of Miz TV, it created an all-time great moment that entertained fans at home almost as much as it angered the fans in North Carolina. After being “cheated” – his words, not anyone elses – out of the win in his […]

When Cody Rhodes broke the news that Jey Uso headed to RAW as the newest member of the roster during his appearance on the Grayson Waller effect on Payback, it got fans from around the world even more excited about the future of the Red Brand. Imagine all of the different match combinations, the feuds, […]

When The Miz found himself on the wrong side of a John Cena pin in his long-awaited singles match against LA Knight at Payback, it left the A-Lister in a strange spot. Sure, he could move on, accept the L, and maybe find a new feud to occupy his weekly time on RAW, but come […]

Heading into Payback, few matches had as much hype behind them as LA Knight versus The Miz. Sure, the feud wasn’t as long-lasting as Becky Lynch versus Trish Stratus and wasn’t nearly as personal as the bad blood between the former’s husband and the “King of Strong Style,” Shinsuke Nakamura, but after spending years as […]

After weeks and weeks of anticipation, LA Knight and The Miz had to wait just a little bit longer for their match at Payback, as John Cena cut a promo ahead of the second match of the show and let it be known that he was going to be the guest referee for the showdown, […]

What are the ethics of a Superstar like John Cena being a WWE Premium Live Event host? Does he have to swear a vow of impartiality, declaring that he will be neutral on all things and promote the spirit of competition? Or is he instead free to calls it like he sees it, even if […]

It’s here, it’s finally here; after four long weeks of waiting, WWE has another Premium Live Event for fans to enjoy in Payback, the first PLE to come to Pittsburgh since Extreme Rules in 2018. Soon, fans will find out if the four belts being put on the line will stay with their original holders, […]

Less than one month after the biggest party of the summer, WWE Superstars who believe they got over the short end of the stick at SummerSlam now have a chance to get themselves some payback at, well, Payback, WWE’s first Premium Live Event to be broadcasted from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania since Extreme Rules in 2018. With […]

After announcing that John Cena would be appearing at the Giant Center for the go-home edition of SmackDown before Payback – his first of eight announced SmackDown appearances thus far –  Paul “Triple H” Levesque, Adam Pearce, and company didn’t make the fine fans in Hershey, Pennsylvania wait long to see “The Face that runs […]

Folks, it’s official, it’s legitimately official: John Cena is returning to WWE, and he’s sticking around for a two-month tour as a member of the SmackDown roster. Soon, Cena will become a regular on FOX for (almost) every Friday in September and October, and, considering he’s booked to wrestle a match with Seth Rollins at […]

While Cody Rhodes has wrestled for dozens of different promotions over his professional wrestling career, working matches all over the world between 2016-2022 when he was on his tour through the indies, in the end, the “American Nightmare” always felt like a WWE guy. He carried himself like a WWE Superstar whether he was working […]

Bray Wyatt, The Fiend, the Eater of Worlds, Husky Harris; no matter what you called Windham Rotunda during his decade and a half in the WWE, it’s clear he made a name for himself in professional wrestling with his chameleon-like commitment to character, his willingness to innovate, and for better or worse, his willingness to […]

With the biggest professional wrestling show of all time, AEW All In, rapidly approaching, MJF sat down for a special one-on-one interview with Renee Paquette on Dynamite to discuss his plans for the show, his future, and his friendship with Adam Cole, which isn’t a work, he promises. Asked how he feels heading into the […]

Sami Zayn has pretty much reached the pinnacle – lowercase p – of professional wrestling at this point in his career. Sure, he hasn’t won “the big one” in WWE, having to grapple with the realization that he may never be “the chosen guy” in the top promotion in the world as a result, but […]

Though he spent Edge’s 25th Anniversary celebration on SmackDown working a very different angle, scheming over ways to get back the United States Championship he felt was “stolen from him” due to some – albeit questionable –  interference from Rey Mysterio, Austin Theory still had plenty to say about the “Rated-R Superstar” when he stopped […]

When news broke that the screen actors guild – SAG-AFTRA – was going on strike, leaving hundreds of thousands of performers with incredible uncertainty regarding their financial stability, more than a few WWE fans began banging the table in the hopes of seeing John Cena, Dave Batista, or the promotion’s current white whale, Dwayne “The […]

Last Friday night on SmackDown, Rey Mysterio shocked viewers when he walked away from the show with the United States Championship, defeating Austin Theory in the process. Mysterio, 48, is considered by some as the greatest Latino wrestler of all time, and by some, he’s considered the greatest of all time. Now it looks like […]

When Austin Theory landed a feud with John Cena heading into WrestleMania 39, it felt like a make-or-break moment for the once and current United States Champion. Sure, Theory had some respectable title matches before taking the ring for the opening match of Day 1 of WrestleMania 39, with wins over Seth Rollins, Bobby Lashley, […]

In the long 35 year history of the WWE’s famed summer spectacle, there’s a lot that stands out. With the 2023 SummerSlam taking place, we now have the daunting task of ranking the 10 best rewatchable shows in the event’s history. It won’t just be about the match cards — even though those play a […]

Things have been going pretty well for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson since he started beefing with Grayson Waller on Twitter; he captured a ton of goodwill by donating seven figures to SAG-AFTRA, the largest donation to the union in history, landed a “record-breaking payment” for his upcoming movie, Red One, and remains incredibly popular in […]

Grayson Waller landed a tough break – literally – when he was drafted onto SmackDown with the final pick in the 2023 WWE Draft, as he was recovering from a broken leg via his match with Carmelo Hayes and, thus, couldn’t actually mix it up with his fellow performers in the ring with his fellow […]

With just a little over two weeks away from WWE’s annual SummerSlam event, the show is shaping up nicely, although a couple surprises wouldn’t hurt. John Cena and The Rock would be nice additions to what WWE has often labeled the biggest party of the summer with a sudden open schedule. Writers/Actors strike opens opportunity […]

A new behind-the-scenes featurette for Greta Gerwig’s upcoming Barbie film has dropped, and it reveals the first look at John Cena in the upcoming Margot Robbie-led film.

Though he may have a, shall we say, prickly exterior, in his heart, Grayson Waller is kind, even generous.

July has been very, very, very good to Grayson Waller.

After an incredible evening at Madison Square Garden, capped off with a career-spanning appearance on The Grayson Waller Effect and a commanding win over the “Arrogant Aussie” in his main roster debut, Edge was riding high. Twenty-five years after first working a show at the most famous arena in the world, securing a mixed tag […]

After being slow walked onto the main roster due to a broken leg, having to solely take part in talk show segments for The Grayson Waller Effect, Grayson Waller was thrown off the deep end in a major way over the past week, working with Logan Paul, getting in the ring with John Cena sans […]

No matter how you slice it, Money in the Bank at the O2 Arena in London was a slam dunk for WWE. Per the man himself, Paul “Triple H” Levesque, the show was the most financially successful arena Premium Live Event in the promotion’s history, the SmackDown the night before was the most financially successful […]

After recording an increasingly strange win over Dominik Mysterio in the fourth match at Money in the Bank, Cody Rhodes decided to hit the shows, put back on his suit, and take part in a special interview with Ariel Helwani as part of BT Sport’s coverage of Money in the Bank. Now granted, did Rhodes […]

After watching Cody Rhodes work a rather pointless match with Dominik Mysterio at Money in the Bank, the WWE Universe was afforded an absolute treat when John Cena, the face of the last era of WWE made an unannounced cameo in London to hype up the crowd. But why? What was Cena there to do? […]
