As crazy as it may sound, we are just over two weeks away from Survivor Series, when the WWE Universe will descend on the city of Chicago to load up the United Center with a pair of WarGames matches and… cheer on CM Punk, who may or may not be debuting on the show. That’s […]

Though he hasn’t wrestled a match since late August and may not even be technically allowed to wrestle for another promotion moving forward, as he may or may not have a non-compete contract with AEW that runs through November, there’s still one question that stubbornly remains in the front of fans minds around the professional […]

Well folks, it’s officially official: CM Punk has made his return to the United Center, only he didn’t do it for AEW Collision, All Out, or even Survivor Series, but instead for his beloved Chicago Blackhawks, who called on the “Best in the World” to help hype their fans up for the forthcoming 2023-24 NHL […]

Though WWE still technically has another Premium Live Event, Crown Jewel, scheduled before it, they will soon be taking the show on the road to Chicago, Illinois, for a special Thanksgiving-adjacent edition of Survivor Series, when CM Punk may or may not make his triumphant return after being fired from AEW for lunging at Tony […]

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 […]

Becky Lynch really wanted to succeed as a heel in WWE. She changed up her hairstyle, raided Seth Rollins’ closet for all sorts of strange, angular, heelish costumes that would make David Bowie blush, and even talked down the crowd from time to time, but in the end, putting new Becky against Sasha Banks never […]

Ronda Rousey has been a member of WWE on and off since late 2017, when it was reported that she signed with the promotion after becoming a fixture of shows from the crowd. Though she didn’t make her official debut until WrestleMania 34, working a mixed tag match with Kurt Angle against Paul “Triple H” […]

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 […]

When Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley attacked Rey Mysterio on Thanksgiving in front of Mrs. Mysterio, and the Mysterio-ettes, it took the WWE Universe by storm. Millions watched the incident transpire from their dining room tables, couches, or bathrooms alike, and through it all, one question rose above all others: why did Mysterio and Ripley […]

Mia Yim has been back in WWE for roughly three weeks, and what a three weeks it has been. Initially emerging as “The Answer to The OC’s Rhea Ripley problem,” Yim has worked one singles match, was asked to work WarGames by both Team Damage CTRL and Team Bianca Belair – she chose the latter […]

When WWE signed Ronda Rousey, it was supposed to be a game-changer. One of the most popular MMA fighters of all time who quite literally changed the face of the industry forever, Rousey’s addition to WWE fully shattered any remnants of the “Divas Division” and boldly declared that women in The Fed could be legit […]

At Survivor Series WarGames, Sami Zayn officially made his intentions known in the WWE Universe: “The Honorary Uce” is pushing all of his chips to “The Head of the Table.” That’s right, despite showing no real signs of dissension with the group he’s been slowly but surely trying to join since April, fans wondered whether […]

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 […]

Austin Theory. Austin “A-Town Down” Theory. Austin “Freakin” Theory; no matter what you call him, the prized adoptive son of Vince McMahon, the man responsible for the worst cash-in in the history of the Money in the Bank contract, just did the unthinkable and made himself the youngest two-time United States Champion in the history […]

Ronda Rousey is one of the baddest women on the planet; she was a transcendent force in the MMA world, parlayed her talents into roles in movies like The Fast and the Furious 7, and has since taken the professional wrestling world by storm as well, with three different title reigns as a WWE Superstar […]

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 […]

To paraphrase an old saying, when in a WWE WarGames Match, do as the WarGames do. After reinvigorating the WarGames format in NXT during his run as the head booker, Triple H shocked the world once more when he announced that Survivor Series would feature not one but two of the double-ringed cage matches, one […]

Though it feels like they’ve been working together forever, Sami Zayn has only been part of WWE’s The Bloodline for roughly six months, when he started hanging around the faction shortly after WrestleMania. Since then, Zayn has weaseled his way into (almost) every member of the faction’s heart, including Solo Sikoa, who wasn’t even a […]

Though it feels like just this month the WWE Universe invaded Saudi Arabia for a Roman Reigns-Logan Paul-led card at Crown Jewel – don’t check your calender, it was this month – Paul “Triple H” Levesque and his creative team are back at it again and this time, they’re bringing an extra ring for good […]

And just like that, the final spot in the 2022 WarGames match is set, as none other than “Big Tim” Becky Lynch will team up with her WWE SummerSlam opponent-turned-friend Bianca Belair, Alexa Bliss, Asuka – who she has a very long and expansive history with – and Mia Yim in their double-caged encounter with […]

Mia Yim has only been back in WWE for a few weeks, and yet, her current run has featured far more visibility than her last one. No longer hidden behind a mask or tasked with trying to get over in Retribution, Yim landed a choice spot in The OC alongside A.J. Styles, Luke Gallows, and […]

After having to suffer through surprise attacks from Bobby Lashley and Austin Theory in subsequent weeks, the WWE United States Champion, Seth Rollins, was afforded a chance to talk to Corey Graves and Kevin Patrick about how things have been going on RAW and why he agreed to defend his title in a three-way match […]

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 […]

After being thoroughly embarrassed on the previous episode of RAW by Johnny Gargano and his universal remote, The Miz was looking to change his narrative within the WWE Universe. Booking a segment of his “Miz TV” show via Adam Pearce and company, Miz asked Byron Saxton to interview him, a surprise format change from the […]

With Survivor Series officially less than two weeks away, Rhea Ripley is set to pull double duty in the WWE Universe, as the enforcer of Judgement Day will all but surely back up her faction-mate Finn Balor in his one-on-one grudge match against fellow former Bullet Club leader A.J. Styles before taking part in the […]

Mia Yim is a very popular performer in the WWE Universe. Though she hadn’t technically recorded her first win in the ring since returning from Impact a changed woman, once she secured the W against Tamina in a relatively one-sided singles victory, the services of The OC’s “Rhea Ripley neutralizer” inflated like the price of […]

It has officially been 25 years since the Montreal Screwjob. That infamous occurrence, which came at the end of the WWF World Heavyweight Championship match between Brett Hart and Shawn Michaels at Survivor Series 1997 “Gang Rulz” broadcast live from beautiful Montreal, Quebec, Canada, sent shockwaves through the company now known as WWE, sent one […]

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 […]

There was a time in the not-too-distant past when Nikki Cross didn’t just want to be a hero to the WWE Universe but something more; she wanted to be super. She had the Hurricane Helms-approved mask, the tights, and an unbreakable smile in the hopes of inspiring kids young and old to live their best […]

Raquel Rodriquez does not like WWE’s Damage Control one bit. She doesn’t like Bayley, the team’s leader, she doesn’t like IYO SKY or Dakota Kai, the former developmental standouts that she spent time with in NXT, and she really doesn’t like how ever since the trio got together, the WWE Universe, regardless of show, has […]

In an announcement that few saw coming but everyone unconsciously needed, Paul “Triple H” Levesque has made a change to Survivor Series, the WWE “Premium Live Event” that features bouts between Superstars on RAW and SmackDown. After years of steadily losing its luster following the increased frequency by which stars cross promotions to compete in […]
