After finding themselves without championships for the first time in years, literally, The Usos have one thing and one thing only that they want to accomplish in the WWE Universe moving forward: regaining their Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships. Fortunately, the brothers have been afforded a chance to remedy that very situation in two weeks’ […]

With WrestleMania 39 officially in the record book, fans waited with bated breath for reviews to roll in for the “Showcase of the Immortals,” with one reviewer’s opinion ranking above all others: Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer. The Rodger Ebert of wrestling since he began his venture some forty years ago, Meltzer’s grades hold […]

After securing the biggest wins of their respective careers in the main event of Night 1 of WrestleMania 39, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn were tasked with addressing the assembled media at SoFi Stadium, and unsurprisingly, they had a lot to say. From talking about Super Dragon and PWG, to being from Montreal, to Owens […]

Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn had one thing and one thing only on their mind heading into WrestleMania 39: ending The Bloodline. After being cast into supporting roles for years as Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman, The Usos, and, eventually, Solo Sikoa ran roughshod at the top of the card, finally, the Montreal Kids would earn […]

After bidding his time during the opening segment of SmackDown, listening to Kevin Owen’s impassioned speech to The Usos, and then the brothers, Jimmy and Jey, talking some trash back at them, Sami Zayn was afforded one final chance to address his Bloodline brothers before their forthcoming match at WrestleMania 39, and needless to say, […]

With WrestleMania week officially upon the WWE Universe, fans have no shortage of interesting storylines to follow heading into “The Showcase of the Immortals,” with none more intriguing than the will-they, won’t-they relationship between Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens as they prepare to wrestle the Undisputed WWE Universal Tag Team Champions, The Usos. Afforded a […]

With WrestleMania 39 officially single digits away, fans have been evaluating the WWE landscape to figure out which matches could fill out the card and which performers could still lock up a “WrestleMania moment” before the show officially goes underway with a Day 1 opening match between John Cena and Austin Theory. Is Bray Wyatt […]

With the dynamic tag team of Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens officially reunited after a will-they, won’t-they storyline that ran through the entirety of the previous edition of Friday Night SmackDown, the WWE Universe was treated to a special edition of The KO Show with none other than “The Underdog of the Underground” lined up […]

When “Stone Cold” Steve Austin made his triumphant return to the ring at WrestleMania 38 for a match that technically wasn’t announced but was arguably the worst-kept secret in professional wrestling, it sent shockwaves through the professional wrestling world. After nearly 20 years away from the ring following his unannounced retirement match against Dwayne “The […]

On June 23rd, 2019, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn defeated The New Day, Big E and Xavier Woods, at Stomping Grounds. Why, you may ask, is that relevant? Well, because it marked the last time Owens and Zayn shared the ring on WWE programming as friends for the better part of four years, save a […]

When Cody Rhodes opened up SmackDown by walking down to the ring with a microphone in hand, fans knew they were in for a treat, but in an interesting twist of fate that paid off later, this time, “The American Nightmare” didn’t want to solely talk about himself. Sure, Rhodes still did a fair bit […]

Though it’s almost been two weeks since Sami Zayn came up short at the 2023 running of the Elimination Chamber, the hype surrounding “The Underdog from the Underground” has remained sky-high within the WWE Universe. Appearing on both RAW and SmackDown in the weeks proceeding, Zayn has kept up his feud with The Bloodline, feuding […]

The decision to book Sami Zayn for a nine-minute match against Baron Corbin didn’t sit well with wrestling journalist extraordinaire Dave Meltzer, as he discussed on Wrestling Observer Radio. Now granted, the match wasn’t bad per se, there were no egregious spots or strange booking decisions, but the decision to allow Corbin to work over […]

After working a segment with Kevin Owens that inched the duo closer together and then securing a decisive win over Baron Corbin in his first match since the 2023 WWE Elimination Chamber, Sami Zayn still somehow had a lot to say. Fortunately, Cathy Kelley was hanging out in the back looking for segments on RAW […]

After taking the biggest L of his career at the Elimination Chamber, Sami Zayn walked out to the ring in his home country of Canada and addressed a crowd eager to hear him talk about his match versus Roman Reigns and where he would like to go from here within the WWE’s squared circle. “I’m […]

As tough as it may be to admit, Sami Zayn was never going to beat Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Yes, he had the crowd behind him, yes, the enthusiasm surrounding his character is among the hottest in the promotion this century, and yes, even Cody Rhodes has endorsed him as a […]

WWE currently has the most stacked roster it has ever had in the company’s history. From the top guys to the superstars who barely get any TV time, the WWE locker room is filled with talent that can make an impact and win over the crowd on any given night. The unfortunate part of having […]

The Miz wasn’t booked for RAW XXX, and as the WWE Universe found out, he wasn’t particularly happy about that fact. Hijacking the ring immediately following the Bianca Belair match against Sonya Deville, The Miz got a mic to air his grievances over why he, a double Triple Crown Champion, wouldn’t be booked for a […]

Delirious, Ring of Honor’s booker from 2010-2021, is not a man of many words. Coming up with a character who takes his name literally, with the masked performer often mumbling incoherently and having to be subtitled, fans have been more akin to watching the member of Incoherence – his faction with Hallowicked, Ultra Mantis Black, […]

Though he never wrestled a match for the promotion – not even a local jobber squash – WWE SmackDown did not go off the air without multiple shoutouts to former Ring of Honor Triple Crown Champion Jay Briscoe, who tragically passed away on Tuesday in a car accident. Much like on NXT and AEW before […]

Sami Zayn was dealt a bad hand on Friday Night SmackDown. Arriving at the WWE show alongside his Island of Relevancy buddies, The Bloodline, Zayn was rejected by “The Tribal Cheif” not once but twice on the show before being kicked out of the group’s locker room following an impassioned speech from Reigns declaring that […]

What do Kevin Owens and an elephant have in common, WWE fans? Well, they never forget, or at least have incredibly long memories. KO remembers the last time he worked with Elias, the number of times he wrestled Roman Reigns, and even how many times he wrestled his long-time friend, Sami Zayn, in a WWE […]

It’s hard to imagine WWE without Kevin Owens. Sure, the “Prizefighter” hasn’t held championship gold in quite some time, since July of 2017 to be exact, but from his feud with Ezekiel to his on-again, off-again war with Sami Zayn, it’s clear the well-traveled veteran is a flexible talent capable of working up and down […]

Though Kevin Owens and John Cena worked together on the final SmackDown of 2022, their shared time in the WWE Universe didn’t start off so smoothly. No, as KO pointed out in an interview with Peter Rosenberg on The Ringer’s Cheap Heat, the duo actually began their time together as foes, with Cena serving as […]

Kenny Omega is one of the most well-traveled performers in professional wrestling today. He’s worked for New Japan, worked for Ring of Honor, and worked in dozens of other promotions across the professional wrestling world, from Pro Wrestling Guerrilla to Top Rope Championship Wrestling, before helping to found the first legitimate challenger to WWE since […]

John Cena has been a member of the WWE Universe for 20 years, as his 20-year anniversary celebration earlier this year was held to celebrate. He’s wrestled in 2,218 matches, according to Cagematch, won 25 championships in the promotion – 27 if you count OVW – and at the tender age of 45, could theoretically […]

While Cody Rhodes hasn’t made an appearance on WWE television – at least in person – since all the way back in June, in the immediate aftermath of his barn-burning bout with Seth Rollins at Hell in a Cell, “The American Nightmare” has kept himself busy, working himself back to full health from a pec […]

Before Kevin Owens was Kevin Owens: WWE Superstar, he was Kevin Steen, the name on his birth certificate and the name he used while tearing up indie rings all over the world with or without everyone’s favorite luchador, El Generico. Before officially joining the WWE in 2014, Owens worked for what feels like a majority […]

If there’s one thing Mark Calaway, aka The Undertaker, knows about more than seemingly anyone else, it’s how to be a WWE Superstar. In his prime and even for a good while after it, very few things in professional wrestling got a bigger pop than the opening bell tolls of “Rest In Peace,” as it […]

With Survivor Series in the rearview mirror, it’s time to look ahead to the Road to WrestleMania. With the Royal Rumble and the Elimination Chamber coming up, it’s time to discuss Roman Reigns’ next opponents at those events. It’s still up in the air whether or not Roman Reigns is taking on The Rock at […]

And just that, it was done; WWE’s Survivor Series WarGames is officially over, and needless to say, fans of The Fed the world over will be talking about this one for a long, long time. From Becky Lynch’s big-time return in a huge way to the WWE Universe as the ringer of Team Bianca Belair […]

Folks, it’s official; Kevin Owens will be the 10th and final member of the men’s namesake match at WWE Survivor Series WarGames. While fans both at home and in the arena weren’t too surprised by the appearance of “The Prize Fighter,” as he was the most logical 10th man for the match, his status heading […]

When “Stone Cold” Steve Austin took the ring at WrestleMania 38 for an episode of The K.O. Show, WWE fans weren’t sure what to expect from “The Rattlesnake.” Though the segment wasn’t officially billed as a match, it was the final segment of a stacked WrestleMania card that included Vince McMahon’s return to in-ring action, […]

Folks, as crazy as it may sound, WWE’s next “Premium Live Event,” Survivor Series, is just two weeks away, and already, the teams for the event’s two premier matches, a male and female version of WarGames, are slowly coming into focus. First came the addition of Nikki Cross, who left her almost-a-superhero ways on SmackDown […]

Grayson Waller has been a member of the WWE Universe since March of 2021, when the Australian-born grappler then going by Matty Wahlberg signed on with the company, according to The Wrestling Observer. He’s wrestled 55 matches for the company, according to Cagematch, first for 205 Live, then on NXT, and even as a representative […]

Every since Paul “Triple H” Levesque took over for his father-in-law, Vince McMahon, as WWE’s head booker, almost every change to the company has been a good one. The 14-time champion has brought back about a dozen former talents, most recently Bray Wyatt and the duo of Luke Gallow and “Machine Gun” Karl Anderson, who […]

Ever since Vince McMahon hung up his suit and had to find a new gym away from Titan Towers, Austin Theory has been without a father figure in the WWE Universe. Granted, Theory has talked himself up without Mr. McMahon by his side, acting like a big, strong boy like he’s Tyler “Freakin’” Bates of […]

After an eventful showing on WWE’s Monday Night RAW, Kevin Owens and Johnny Gargano stopped by WWE’s The Bump to throw together an hour of unhinged entertainment. They talked bandanas, threw shoes, and discussed just how little Austin Theory understands the mindset needed to have longevity as a WWE superstar, but sandwiched in the middle […]

One of the most interesting developments of the Paul “Triple H” Levesque era has been how WWE has handled Austin Theory. Once the handpicked heir to Vince McMahon, who had a rocket strapped to his back on the way to one of the most meteoric six-month runs in recent WWE memory that included a run […]
