After watching Roman Reigns continue to keep his streak alive in the main event of the 2023 WWE Elimination Chamber, Paul “Triple H” Levesque took the mic for a media session to not only talk about how the event went down but to put over some of his Superstars, including one whose match didn’t end […]

Though his best days in the ring have long since past, there’s something truly special about seeing “Stone Cold” Steve Austin in a professional wrestling ring, especially when he’s actually working a match a la his bout against Kevin Owens on the first night of WrestleMania 38.

Folks, it’s official: Vince McMahon has un-retired from the WWE and is returning to his former spot as the Executive Chairman of the company’s board. …but what exactly does that mean? Will Vinny Mac be back on the headset in Gorilla barking orders to Michael Cole and reprimanding him any time he calls a “sports […]

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 […]

While WWE has made a point out of re-signing a number of the wrestlers they fired during the pandemic and beyond, with Paul “Triple H” Levesque’s Infinity Gauntlet now looking like a suit of armor, there were a few notable names who either weren’t rehired – like Wesley Blake or EC3 – or can’t be […]

Folks, it’s (basically) official: after roughly seven months of will-they, won’t-they, it sure sounds like Sasha Banks will be making her professional wrestling re-debut outside of WWE at Wrestle Kingdom 17, when she debuts for New Japan Pro Wrestling under another name, be it Mercedes Mone’ or Mercedes Varnado.

Though William Regal is technically still an employee of AEW, and will be at least until “the end of the month,” when Tony Khan officially terminates his contract and opens the door for a return to WWE, according to a report from PWInsider, the deal has already been struck, with the “Gentleman Villian” set to […]

When Triple H took control of WWE creative midway through the year, fans expected significant changes from the King of Kings.

When Paul “Triple H” Levesque took over primary booking duties for WWE from his father-in-law, Vince McMahon, it turned Vincent M. McMahon’s company into the wild, wild west.

After having to keep the peace while his DX buddies Shawn Michaels, Road Dogg, and X-Pac ran wild around the RAW backstage area, Paul “Triple H” Levesque was likely expecting to have a quiet night at the office, if you will, when WWE brought the show to New Orleans for a special running of SmackDown. […]

Shawn Michaels is the best one of the best wrestlers to ever lace up a pair of boots; he’s won 14 WWE championships, took part in two of the best matches in WrestleMania history with his series against The Undertaker in 2009 and 2010, and was part of one of the most prolific factions in […]

For a time, Ricochet was one of the best-kept secrets in WWE.

NBA veteran Dwight Howard hasn’t yet called it a career. Although he’s currently a free agent, Howard clearly has his next opportunity just waiting for him.

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.
