AEW, by definition, is a challenger brand to WWE; Tony Khan had admitted it, Warner Bros Discovery has leaned into it, and even WWE has admitted to the fact, with the company using it in a lawsuit with MLW to prove they aren’t a monopoly. So, when the company was really getting off of the […]

In the vast and long-winding career of Hulk Hogan, few moments are as hotly contentious, and wholly discussable to this very day as his match – if you want to call it that – with Jeff Jarrett at Bash at the Beach 2000. Hogan’s final match in WCW, and arguably the moment where the promotion […]

After watching both members of the Young Bucks, Nick, and Matt Jackson, get ambulanced away in the opening moments of AEW Dynamite, fans were treated to an incredibly fun six-man tag of Kip Sabian, The Butcher, and The Blade versus Orange Cassidy, Darby Allin, and The Man Called Sting, the 37-year WCW/TNA/WWE vet who recently […]

The second feud a performer has in WWE can make or break their entire run with the company. Now sure, sometimes, performers don’t even make it to their second feud, as Karrion Kross learned all too well during his first run on RAW, but for the most part, first feuds are easy; creative introduces a […]

What in the sam heck is going on with CM Punk? Is he going to return to AEW? Remain under contract but never appear on the promotion again? Secure a buyout from Tony Khan and then jump ship back to WWE, where he could potentially wrestle someone like “Stone Cole” Steve Austin at WrestleMania 39? […]

Tony Khan is a busy man; he’s got a role with the Jacksonville Jaguars, a role with Fulgham FC, and… oh yeah, the multi-hyphenate at the top of AEW, the first promotion that has fielded a legitimate challenge to the supremacy of WWE since WCW closed up shop some 20 years ago. When the draft […]

Tony Schiavone has worked a lot of jobs over his professional broadcasting career. He’s worked called wrestling, sure, with his current role with AEW just the latest of his high-profile gigs, but he’s also called minor league baseball games, had podcasts, and even famously worked at Starbucks, as Britt Baker let the world know on […]

With NXT’s Halloween Havoc right around the corner, Shawn Michaels got on a conference call with reporters to discuss the shape of his little corner of the WWE Universe and the big plans he has for the WCW-stolen “Premium Live Event” moving forward. “I really feel like this is gonna be, from an NXT standpoint, […]

Wrestling fans have to give it up to Konnan – he’s not one known for holding his tongue. Whether working in WCW, TNA/Impact, AAA, MLW, or even the occasional appearance in AEW, Konnan has always “kept it 100” to the point where his podcast is quite literally named “K100 w/ Konnan & Disco.” While openness […]

In case you haven’t heard, Ric Flair is set to wrestle a match later this month featuring more than a few interesting performers spanning the histories of AEW, NJPW, Impact, and even WWE also on the card. … yup, you read that correctly, we’re talking about the ‘Rolex wearing, diamond ring wearing, kiss stealing, wheeling […]

If you’re a typical WWE-only fan, you probably thought Booker T officially placed his boots in the center of the ring all the way back in 2012, when he took part in a 12-man tag match at WrestleMania XXVIII where his team – Kofi Kingston, R-Truth, Santino Marella, The Great Khali, and Zack Ryder – […]

Professional wrestling has always dealt with its share of controversy. But there has likely never bigger a darker mark on the history of professional wrestling than what happened to Chris Benoit and his family. Former WWE superstar ‘nWo’ Sting, a.k.a. Jeff Farmer, recently spoke on Sportskeeda’s UnSKripted podcast with Dr. Chris Featherstone. They discussed a […]

Rey Mysterio is considered one of the biggest names in pro wrestling and more specifically, in the WWE. That almost wasn’t the case though. When WCW was bought out by WWE, he wasn’t signed right away by the promotion and assumed he would be bought out like everyone else. Things could have been very different […]

Eric Bischoff is one of the big minds in pro wrestling that knows all about many legendary storylines in WWE and other promotions. The legendary figure recently talked about Goldberg’s run in WCW and if Hulk Hogan sabotaged him. Goldberg and Hulk Hogan were friends at the time but that doesn’t mean the WWE legends […]
