Tony D’Angelo and Dijak do not like each other. Ever since the former T-Bar returned to NXT to serve as a sort of mid-boss for the developmental brand, the former indie darling has been giving Tony D fits, as the “Don of NXT” likes to run things a certain way that doesn’t exist harmoniously with […]

When Cody Rhodes made his way from RAW to SmackDown to have his first-ever face-to-face encounter with Roman Reigns since returning to WWE at WrestleMania 38, it felt like a big deal. Sure, Rhodes had spoken ad nauseum about the prospects of wrestling “The Tribal Chief” at WrestleMania 39 to pretty much any and every […]

WWE’s Chad Gable does not like Baron Corbin. Though it feels like distant history now, the leader of the Alpha Academy was initially given the horrible “Shorty G” moniker by the now-friendless former king, and that moniker weighed down his career for literally years, with the Olympic athlete still attempting to recover to this very […]

For months, the story of Sami Zayn and the Bloodline has been the hottest saga in all of WWE, if not professional wrestling. It took quite a while before Zayn earned the trust of his (now-former) Bloodline brethren, as it took him nearly seven months before Jey Uso grew to appreciate Zayn’s contributions following his […]

After months of anticipation, Austin Theory was finally afforded a chance to talk to John Cena and offer him a spot at WrestleMania 39.

When Sami Zayn took the ring against Jimmy Uso in the main event of Monday Night RAW, he did so alone.

After winning the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships on the previous edition of RAW, Becky Lynch, her new tag team partner, Lita, and their Hall of Fame buddy Trish Stratus returned to the Monday night show to discuss just how good it feels to be a champion once more… at least for a bit.

As wrestling fans, we have to routinely suspend our disbelief to enjoy the shows we watch. But there are moves that definitely look like they hurt a lot on the receiving end.

Though he hasn’t come face to face with Logan Paul since the former hit him with a buckshot lariat in the Elimination Chamber – that’s coming on Monday’s edition of RAW – Seth Rollins hasn’t exactly been keeping his feelings close to his vest on “The Impaulsive One” heading into their long-rumored match at WrestleMania […]

Santos Escobar is a big Rey Mysterio guy.

Sure, eventually, Escobar would like to […]

There was a time when Keith Lee looked like he was going to become the next big thing in WWE – literally. Measuring in at 6-foot-2, 332 pounds, Lee looks like an NFL nose tackle but moves like a luchador and has the ability to be one of the most special in-ring performers a promotion […]

AEW’s Kenny Omega is not one to hide his outside-the-ring influences from his wrestling persona.

Grayson Waller isn’t a Shawn Michaels guy, and unfortunately for HBK, the feeling is very much mutual, as the “Down Under Wonder” has put it upon himself to wage a personal war against NXT‘s head honcho in the leadup-to the biggest show of the year, Stand and Deliver. After declaring before the show that he […]

Though Ava Raine – who now goes by just Ava – isn’t what you would call a featured player on NXT, she has found a nice niche as a member of Schism, the spooky group led by Joe Gacy who have taken particular pleasure in giving Thea Hail and the members of Chase U a […]
