WWEThe Miz reveals why he brutally beat down former friend Tommaso Ciampa

The Miz is an Ohio institution. Sure, he’s technically billed from Hollywood, California when he walks down to the ring on Monday Night RAW, as, like many WWE Superstars, the professional grappler turned in snowy winters for more temperate climates that the affluent lifestyle can provide, but still, the pride of Parma, Ohio will shout […]

WWEBron Breakker discusses his initial taste of the WWE main roster road life

Despite being arguably the most polished performer in the WWE developmental system, Bron Breakker did not hear his name called during the 2023 WWE Draft, with the second-generation Steiner remaining in NXT to continue to develop his revolutionary new “Meaner than Evil” heel character. And yet, just because Steiner still reports to the Performance Center […]

WWEGunther reveals his thoughts on challenging Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns for a World Championship

After holding the Intercontinental Championship for 376 days and counting, coming just 78 days short of the Honkytonk Man’s record of 454, it’s only natural for fans and professional wrestling pundits alike to wonder if the time is right for Gunther to step out of the comfort zone and take a shot at one of […]

WWETommaso Ciampa 'does it himself' in surprise return to RAW versus The Miz

In professional wrestling, an untimely injury can ruin a push indefinitely; it happened to Finn Balor seven years ago after his match with Seth Rolllins at SummerSlam, to Tommaso Ciampa just after his loss to Austin Theory in a Harley Race-themed match for the United States Championship, and potentially happened to “The Visionary” too, when […]

WWEWWE's Johnny Gargano hints at the return of his NXT tag team to Monday Night RAW

After being arguably the biggest beneficiary of the creative regime change from Vince McMahon and Paul “Triple H” Levesque, Tommaso Ciampa, the former tag team partner of Johnny Gargano down in NXT, has been unfortunately absent from WWE  television, as he’s been recovering from a hip injury that has kept him out of action since […]

WWEBronson Reed returns to a mild reaction on WWE RAW

Folks, it’s official: Jonah, aka Bronson Reed from NXT, has left the ranks of the indies, Impact Wrestling, and New Japan Pro Wrestling behind once and for all – at least for now – to return to the greater WWE Universe. All of his work establishing himself as a Vader-esque big man with an absolutely […]

WWECiampa dedicates his United States Title shot to a WWE Legend

It’s here; it’s finally here: WWE’s Monday Night RAW is officially upon us. Now granted, that’s nothing new; the show has been airing on one network or another every week since all the way back on January 11, 1993, but over that tenure, few episodes have been as exciting, as anticipated, and as gosh-darn potentially […]

WWECiampa isn't afraid of Bobby Lashley ahead of WWE title match

Don’t-call-him-Tommaso Ciampa might just be the hottest wrestler in the entire WWE Universe. He’s turned a weird initial run and a seemingly-ill-fated partnership with The Miz into a money angle that’s been drawing praise from across the industry, has delivered promo after promo that each would be the best of a lesser performer’s career, and […]

WWETriple H is doing right by former NXT Champion Ciampa in WWE

Tommaso Ciampa‘s run in WWE has been weird. For one thing, he’s lost his name, with Tommaso being cut for a new, more streamlined title, and while he hasn’t been asked to shave his beard or, like, wear a gladiator costume, many of the elements of Ciampa’s NXT presentation, from being a wise babyface, to […]

EditorialsEx-NXT Johnny Gargano gives an update on his in-ring status

When Dakota Kai triumphantly made her way out of the SummerSlam tunnel and back into the WWE Universe, it generated one heck of a pop among the fans assembled both at the Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee, and watching from home. Now granted, Kai wasn’t exactly the most popular performer in NXT during her tenure […]

WWELogan Paul balls out against The Miz at SummerSlam

Logan Paul is a relic of a bygone era of the WWE Universe. Now granted, that era was about 10 days ago, as Vince McMahon just retired due to his infidelities one Friday before last but still, Triple H has turned the promotion’s gaze into the future, with NXT stars new and old like Io […]

WWEWWE is wasting Tomasso Ciampa with The Miz on RAW

When news broke that Tommaso Ciampa’s long-time DIY tag team partner, Johnny Gargano, wasn’t going to re-sign with NXT, it felt like one of the final vestiges of a fantastically underrated in wrestling era was exiting the WWE Universe for good. The Undisputed Era? Gone. The Diamond Mine? Gutted. Marina Shafir released – and that’s […]
