While conventional wisdom may have suggested that he’d be back in Orlando preparing for the self-proclaimed “biggest match of his career,” Bron Breakker instead decided to fly out to Cleveland to scout Seth Rollins ahead of their match at NXT Gold Rush. Unfortunately for Breakker, he didn’t get to see a WWE World Heavyweight Championship […]

After two-plus months away, Logan Paul finally made his triumphant return to the WWE Universe near his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio, to discuss his future plans in The Fed and his desire to make “Believeland” into “The City of Champions” once more. Sitting atop a ladder in the center of the ring with both Money […]

In WWE, there aren’t many female Superstars who have found the same level of success as Charlotte Flair. A former NXT Champion, WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion, a former RAW Women’s Champion, a former SmackDown Women’s Champion, and even a former Divas Champion, with 14 total reigns with a World Championship to her credit, even […]

Seven years ago, when Seth Rollins and Finn Balor shared the ring at SummerSlam 2016, it felt like an inflection point in the WWE Universe. At the time, the duo were two of the hottest performers in the promotion, a “homegrown guy” with independent pedigree versus the original founder of Bullet Club to decide on […]

When Rhea Ripley debuted on RAW, challenging Asuka for a shot at her Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 37, fans were very excited to see what the WWE Universe had in store for the performer formerly known as “The Nightmare.” Though Ripley was ultimately successful in her pursuit and had a popular run with the strap […]

When Seth Rollins officially accepted Bron Breakker‘s challenge for a match at what would eventually be called NXT Gold Rush, fans across the WWE Universe turned their heads. Now granted, not because they actually believed that Breakker could win, as any good oddsmaker would place “The Visionary” as a heavy, heavy favorite in the contest, […]

The wrestling industry has been captivated by The Bloodline storyline, making it the centerpiece of WWE television over the past year. Filled with all the elements that wrestling fans crave, this narrative has deepened the character development of every individual involved, offering a recipe for an exceptional story. Among the compelling personas, Jey Uso stands […]

To some fans, nothing would make them happier than to see WWE split up the Street Profits and give Montez Ford a right proper singles run away from Angelo Dawkins. On paper, it makes sense; Ford has all of the makings of a WWE Superstar from his talk to his walk to the way he […]

WWE is not a company that moves fast. Sure, title reigns can come and go with the wind, but the belts in question, and the names used by the promotion to describe them, can stubbornly stick around for a very long time, as the 24/7 Title will tell you. And yet, between WWE’s decision to […]

After taking a loss to IYO SKY on SmackDown in a qualifying match to decide on a participant in the open contract Ladder match, Shotzi will not be wrestling at Money in the Bank, at least not unless she can book a title match with Rhea Ripley or pick up a shift as a referee. […]

By winning the SmackDown number one contender’s tag team gauntlet match, even if they only got one flukey elimination versus the Brawling Brutes, who got four, Pretty Deadly officially secured themselves a match against Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship, which will take place at the O2 Arena in […]

After punching his ticket to Money in the Bank with a win over Montez Ford, LA Knight kept his winning ways going with another W over Santos Escobar, the “Emperor of Lucha Libre” and fellow participant in the Ladder match scheduled for the O2 Arena in London, England on July 1st. Asked about his win […]

Growing up in Cameron, North Carolina, Cameron Grimes was seemingly a world away from the glitz and glamour of professional wrestling, where performers spend their lives flying from major metropolitan city to major metropolitan city to perform for legions of fans across the country and even the world. And yet, the kid from Cameron, – […]

When the WWE Draft rolled around, and Paul “Triple H” Levesque let it be known that select NXT starts were going to be eligible for the proceedings, fans tabbed one performer above all others as a natural fit to hear his name called and take his assignment to either RAW or SmackDown: Bron Breakker. On […]

If there’s one complaint some fans have about Gunther‘s run at the top of the SmackDown and now RAW roster – other than, you know, the weird 1940s German stuff that persistently keeps coming up in ideas from creative – it’s that he maybe hasn’t been afforded the best competition as a member of the […]

Logan Paul is one of the most polarizing social media influencers today. In fact, his YouTube channel has already garnered 23.6 million subscribers and 5.9 billion views. Furthermore, his Twitter and Instagram accounts have already earned 6.7 million and 25.7 million followers, respectively. With Paul’s popularity worldwide, have you ever wondered how a controversial internet […]

When Maxxine Dupri transitioned from being the manager of the Maximum Male Models to becoming the third in Alpha Academy, a seductress turned supporter of Otis who now serves as a pupil under “master” Chad Gable, fans assumed that the former LA Rams Cheerleader would tone things down and embrace a more academic, dare-I-say scholarly […]

While Shayna Baszler may be most widely known for her MMA acumen, amassing a 15-11 record in the octagon before transitioning into the ring with increasing regularity from 2015 on, in WWE, “The Queen of Spades” has developed a new niche: Tag Team specialist. Stopping by The Bump to talk all things WWE now that […]

After a week plus or minus two hours of waiting, Roman Reigns, Solo Sikoa, Paul Heyman, and Jey Uso all shared the ring in the final segment of SmackDown to finally find out if the “Main Event” member of The Usos was going to remain in The Bloodline – a move that would kick Heyman […]

After challenging any member of Damage CTRL to a match ahead of Money in the Bank, Zelina Vega took care of business against IYO SKY to pick up some crucial momentum heading into the show at the O2 Arena in London on July 1st. Discussing the win with Megan Morant in a special WWE Digital […]

After being looked over, yet again, for a rematch with Asuka for the WWE Women’s Championship – aka the former RAW Women’s Championship – Bianca Belair told Adam Pearce that she was done sitting around waiting for an opportunity to shine and decided to take the matter into her own hands. What did that mean […]

When Mandy Rose was released from her WWE contract back in December of 2022, it looked like another wrestling promotion, be that AEW, Impact, or even an international promotion like Shimmer, was about to land a ready-made star capable of main-eventing television shows, garnering headlines, and ultimately shifting the dynamic of a women’s division one […]

There are a lot of ways to describe Roman Reigns and his current 1,000-plus day reign atop the WWE Universe. He’s the “Tribal Chief,” he’s the “Head of the Table,” he’s a killer in the ring and a performer so ruthless that he’ll even give the thumbs down to his own cousin Jimmy before watching […]

For months, maybe years now, fans of WWE have been hoping, praying that Montez Ford would leave his Street Profits partner Angelo Dawkins behind Marty Jannetty-style to become the promotion’s next great singles star. On paper, it makes sense, right? Dawkins is beyond charismatic, built like a top guy at 6-foot-1, 232 pounds, and after […]

Ricochet is a certified WWE Superstar. Initially signing with the promotion in 2018 after successful stints in PWG, New Japan Pro Wrestling, and Dragon Gate, plus a run in Lucha Underground, where he wrestled under the Prince Puma moniker, Ricochet has wrestled almost 500 matches, formed multiple tag teams, and has even won a few […]

Why did Sami Zayn work so well in The Bloodline? Was it his quick wit in coming up with nicknames like “The Honorary Uce,” and how he was feeling “Ucey?” Or maybe his willingness to be the butt of the joke and look foolish in an earnest attempt to entertain fans? Well, in the opinion […]

For years, fans and non-fans alike have drawn comparisons between what promoters like Eric Bischoff, Paul Heyman, and Vince McMahon – and now Paul “Triple H” Levesque – put on the screen each week and the soap operas that have dominated daytime television since, well, since daytime television became a thing. Both have excessive drama, […]

In professional wrestling, few performers are as connected to a single promoter as Eric Bischoff is to Sting. The Vince McMahon to “The Crow’s” Steve Austin, Sting worked for Bischoff for the entire time he was in charge of WCW, and even after the company formerly known as Jim Crockett Promotions shuttered its doors for […]

Though Cameron Grimes has only been a member of the WWE main roster for about a month, joining SmackDown with the final televised pick in the 2023 WWE Draft, fans of the Blue Brand have already begun to fall in love with the “The Carolina Caveman” for his quirky personality, his Cave In finisher, and […]

As AEW rapidly throws together a card for Forbidden Door 2, which is somehow less than two weeks away, fans of professional wrestling from all over the world – literally – are excited to see who top stars like MJF, Sanada, and Zack Sabre Jr. will throw down with at the cross-promotional event with New […]

Before Sheamus was a King, a Grand Slam Champion, a Brawling Brute, or even a member of FCW, he was Sheamus O’Shaunessy, a moniker the man born Stephen Farrelly debuted in IWW all the way back in 2004 and used up until he jumped to WWE a few years later.  Though Sheamus isn’t what one […]

Though MJF is currently going strong as the AEW World Champion, with his “Reign of Terror” up to 208 days and counting, fans still wonder whether or not the Long Island native will make the jump to WWE like Blair Davenport, Cody Rhodes, William Regal, and Eric Bischoff before him. On paper, the union makes […]

Bayley has a lot of enemies in WWE. An OG Four Horsewoman who has been in the proverbial trenches for a decade and counting, the “Role Model” has feuded with Becky Lynch, Sahsa Banks, Bianca Belair, and pretty much every other major babyface star WWE has to offer, but when her career comes to an […]

What is the next stage of story evolution for WWE? Now that the promotion has embraced incredibly long-form storytelling, at least when it comes to the likes of Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman, and the rest of The Bloodline, what can WWE do to help push the industry further and produce something new that feels both […]

After watching Bad Bunny tear the roof off of his adoptive home island of Puerto Rico, Logan Paul has officially announced his return to WWE, appearing on the forthcoming edition of RAW live from Cleveland near his hometown of Westlake. What does the future have in store for the older Paul Brother? Only time will […]

In the beautiful tradition known as Lucha Libre, there isn’t a higher honor a father can bestow on their child than giving them the family wrestling moniker. From Pentagon Jr., to El Hijo del Vikingo, and even the most famous luchador of all time, Rey Mysterio – aka Rey Mysterio Jr., named after his uncle […]

Kofi Kingston has achieved a lot during his 15-year career in WWE. He is among the most accomplished superstars of all time and has some of the most memorable moments in WWE history. Kingston is a 15-time Tag Team Champion, 4-time Intercontinental Champion, 3-time United States Champion, and former WWE Champion. He is also a […]
