Since officially becoming a tag team earlier this year, Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez have rapidly become the premier babyface women’s tag team in all of WWE, a bar that admittedly wasn’t particularly hard to clear, what with there being no named teams on the roster, but remains impressive none the less. They’ve found ways […]

After watching 14 main roster acts hear their names called during the first day of the 2023 WWE draft, Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn sat back in awe with the rest of their NXT class as “The Heartbreak Kid” himself, Shawn Michaels, announced that with their final pick on Day 1, SmackDown was taking the […]

After securing a shockingly clean win on The Usos in a rematch of the main event of Night 1 of WrestleMania 39, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn were in relatively good spirits, or at least as good spirits as a certified curmudgeon like KO can get at this stage in his career. Sitting down for […]

After watching the first four rounds of the 2023 WWE Draft on SmackDown – which, curiously enough, featured four acts selected in each round instead of one per brand – fans tuned in to the SmackDown LowDown on Saturday morning to see where the performers who weren’t selected, about a dozen names, plus a few […]

Heading into WrestleMania 39, fans wanted nothing more than to see “Stone Cold” Steve Austin get in the ring with one of the top stars on RAW or SmackDown in order to provide the fans in SoFi and watching on Peacock an optimized experience filled with fun, cheers, and more than few Broken Skull IPAs […]

When Ricochet and Braun Strowman started tag teaming together on SmackDown, it was unusual.

Ronda Rousey is arguably the baddest woman on the planet. She excelled in the international arena, while representing Team USA in Judo.

Nia Jax hasn’t been a member of the WWE Universe since all the way back in November of 2021.
