Now granted, […]

For all of his flaws, Logan Paul is a darn good athlete.

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 […]

After thoroughly bruising Logan Paul’s ego – and face – on the previous edition of RAW via a combination potent tounge lashing/Sliced Bread, the “One and Only” Ricochet was feeling pretty, pretty, pretty good about himself heading into the July 17th edition of WWE’s flagship show.

For the second time in as many weeks, Shayna Baszler secured a quick, entertaining win on Monday Night RAW, proving that she can be successful in-ring without Ronda Rousey walking beside her.

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

One week removed from Money in the Bank, many professional wrestling fans still haven’t gotten over the fact that Damian Priest, not LA Knight, came down with the briefcase and secured the rights to the open contract inside of it.

After maybe costing Finn Balor a chance to dethrone Seth Rollins as the WWE World  Heavyweight Championship – depending on who you ask – Damian Priest got his just desserts two days later on RAW when the “Prince” emerged at the end of Dominik Mysterio’s match with the “Visionary” to attack the current champ just […]

Damian Priest failed at Backlash in Puerto Rico for more reasons than one. In the ring, Priest came up short against Bad Bunny, a loss mitigated by becoming Señor Money in the Bank in July but still embarrassing all things considered, but if you recall, Priest didn’t just promise to win his match. No, Priest […]

Logan Paul has been a member of the WWE Universe for roughly two years, give or take a few months. Over that tenure, he’s worked a grueling schedule of six matches, three in 2022 and three in 2023, and amassed a respectable record of 2-6, with one failed title shot versus Roman Reigns at Crown […]

On-screen, Finn Balor hates Edge; the “Prince” dislikes how he handled The Judgment Day, going so far as to kick him out of the group on the same day he joined it, dislikes his babyface turn, and really dislikes that he had to receive more than a dozen staples to the head after a botched […]

No matter how you slice it, Money in the Bank at the O2 Arena in London was a slam dunk for WWE.

After watching Damian Priest disappointingly win the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder match, Shayna Baszler turn on Ronda Rousey, Drew McIntyre return, John Cena return, and Cody Rhodes defeat Dominik Mysterio one-on-one – though not necessarily in that order – the WWE Universe was treated to the second Money in the Bank Ladder match […]

Heading into Money in the Bank, fans were incredibly curious to see how Dominik Mysterio was going to pull out the win against one of the true standard bearers of WWE, Cody Rhodes.

After a week of hype and a message to the WWE Universe about his broken leg, Grayson Waller was over-the-moon to have the biggest guest of his SmackDown career on The Grayson Waller Effect, Logan Paul, but what would the social media star have to say?
