Brock Lesnar defeating the Undertaker and ending his WrestleMania win streak is one of the most shocking moments in wrestling history.

Nobody expected Lesnar to be the one to […]

When The Revival left WWE to shoot their shot on the indies, joining AEW under their long-term, tongue-in-cheek moniker FTR, they left a lot behind in order to earn their freedom.

There have been rumors of WWE splitting up both the WWE and Universal Championships for quite some time now.

When Charlotte Flair took the ring for a pre-WrestleMania 39 promo on SmackDown, the reaction she received from the crowd was classic Charlotte Flair. She received “what?” chants, she got booed, and through it all, the SmackDown Women’s Champion was largely unflappable, talking about her dad, talking about her legacy, and, most importantly of all, […]

Wrestling, like any other sport, isn’t forever. It is a sport that demands a lot of physicality, creativity, and time away from family. As a result, retirement is always on the minds of WWE wrestlers, as it’s their responsibility to prepare for life after wrestling. Although retirement means the end of one’s career, it doesn’t […]

With his United States Championship match against Austin Theory officially set to open up the first night of WrestleMania 39, John Cena has returned to the time-worn tradition of doing the media rounds to promote the event, a tradition that’s been perfecting for the better part of 20 years.

It’s officially been one calendar year since Pete Dunn was elevated from NXT to the WWE main roster and officially became Butch, the smallest, angriest member of Sheamus’ faction, The Brawling Brutes, and the fan reaction to the change has been… interesting.

When “Stone Cold” Steve Austin made his triumphant return to the ring at WrestleMania 38 for a match that technically wasn’t announced but was arguably the worst-kept secret in professional wrestling, it sent shockwaves through the professional wrestling world.

Though it hasn’t yet been a year since Bronson Reed jumped ship from New Japan Pro Wrestling to bring his unique brand of big-bodied brutality to the WWE Universe, it’s hard to argue with his on-screen production. Sure, technically, Reed began his career in a weird way, playing the role of “heater” for The Miz […]

Though Carmelo Hayes has never actually worked a televised match on RAW or SmackDown, with all of his matches in the WWE Universe either coming on NXT, Main Event, or a single dark match with Trick Williams on SmackDown back in 2021, few NXT Superstars appear as ready to take their show on the road […]
