After watching Jacy Jayne and Gigi Dolin fully come apart at NXT Vengeance Day, Bayley took it upon herself to get the Toxic Attraction gals back on the same page via an appearance on her much-loved talk show Ding Dong Hello! Though the Toxic twosome arrived at the PC separately, they walked to the ring […]

Though he isn’t currently an active member of the WWE roster, there’s still a ton of love for John Cena in the RAW, the SmackDown, and even the NXT locker room. Need proof? Look no further than Seth Rollins’ recent appearance at the WWE 2k23 launch party, where he complimented Cena for being not only […]

Before Carmelo Hayes made his way to NXT Vengeance Day for a non-title, Best Two out of Three Falls match against Apollo Crews, he made a bold prediction that he would only need two falls to secure the win and leave Charlotte victorious. Fast forward to the end of the show, and the “A-Champ” was […]

After securing a win over Apolo Crews at NXT Vengeance Day, Carmelo Hayes was riding high. He and Trick Williams walked down to the ring to sing their praises, and it looked like the duo were preparing for a one-way ticket to wrestle Bron Breakker… at least until JD McDonagh walked down to the ring […]

When news that “The King” Jerry Lawler had suffered a medical emergency initially characterized as a stroke before later being characterized as a blood blockage to the right side of his brain by Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer, it sent shockwaves through the professional wrestling world. While Lawler’s prime has long since past, the […]

After a strong showing at NXT Vengeance Day, Wes Lee is riding high. He took care of Dijak, one of his biggest, toughest opponents in the WWE universe today, in the opening match to retain his North American Championship and now can look forward to all of the opportunities NXT presents for him, be that […]

On Valentine’s Day, it will officially be two months since Mandy Rose was released from her NXT contract by WWE. In those two months, the  former NXT Women’s Champion has become a millionaire, become one of the top-earning talents on FanTime, and remained one of the hottest names in professional wrestling, so much so that […]

On paper, it makes sense that Cody Rhodes is a big fan of Paul Heyman. Both spearheaded alternatives to WWE that capitalized on being the “cool” promotion at the time, both have a deep, near-encyclopedic knowledge of the professional wrestling business, and both are scheduled to appear in the main event of WrestleMania 39, with […]

The winner of the Royal Rumble is guaranteed a world championship match at WrestleMania. In the past, the road to WrestleMania was pretty simple for whoever won the Royal Rumble match. You pick the world champion of your choosing, and the match is set. This year is a little different, though. Technically Roman Reigns is […]

For the first time in WWE history, the United States Championship will be on the line in the Elimination Chamber match. At Elimination Chamber, Austin Theory will defend the United States Championship against Seth “Freakin” Rollins, Johnny Gargano, Bronson Reed, Damian Priest, and Montez Ford. This match has a good mix of talent, ranging from […]

After weeks and weeks of anticipation, Becky Lynch and Bayley were finally afforded a chance to go toe-to-toe in a steel cage on RAW for the entire WWE Universe to see. Expecting a one-on-one match following a backstage beatdown on Dakota Kai on the previous edition of RAW, Lynch did find herself in a match […]

After becoming the fastest-ever eliminated woman in the history of the Royal Rumble, Chelsea Green was not happy, so much so that she wanted to speak to the manager of WWE, which I guess is Adam Pearce, on the following RAW in order to make things right. Largely requesting fairly normal stuff, swiss chocolates, her […]

When MVP, Cedric Alexander, and Shelton Benjamin were all talking in the background during JBL’s breakup with Baron Corbin, old-school WWE fans knew that something good was about to happen, and needless to say, they were right. Walking down to the ring as a trio for the first time in what feels like forever, fans […]

Just call her “Meladomis,” WWE Universe. After boldly declaring that she would run the table in the final Elimination Chamber qualifying match before WWE’s second “Premium Live Event” of the 2023 calendar year, the returning Carmella was riding high, jaw-jacking with Chelsea Green during her match on RAW before taking her one gal party to […]

With the second RAW post the Royal Rumble officially over, it’s hard to look at any faction as having a better night within the WWE Universe than Judgement Day. Finn Balor and Rhea Ripley secured a match with Edge and Beth Phoenix at the Elimination Chamber “Premium Live Event,” Damian Priest punched his ticket to […]

After watching his ward, Baron Corbin, drop a stunner to Dexter Lumis in a match on RAW, John “Bradshaw” Layfield let it be known that he’d had just about enough of the man he was calling a “Modern-day Wrestling God.” Walking to the back looking completely dejected, Corbin mentioned that the duo would do better […]

After missing the fallout edition of RAW due to personal reasons, Brock Lesnar returned to the WWE Universe in sunny Orlando, Florida, to issue a bit of a proposition to Bobby Lashley ahead of the Elimination Chamber. “Did you’ll catch the Royal Rumble?” Lesnar asked. “I did too and I thought it sucked. At least […]

When Edge and Finn Balor went toe-to-toe at Extreme Rules in an I Quit match, few expected to see your run-of-the-mill WWE match. Facing off after months of back-and-forth banter and a change in management atop the Judgement Day by way of Balor’s trickery, the two men weren’t going to win their match by submission, […]

GUNTHER is in the middle of a moment in the WWE Universe. He’s the Intercontinental Champion, the first to hold the belt for over 240 days since Shelton Benjamin accomplished the feat all the way back in 2004-05, and after going the distance and setting the record for the most time in a Royal Rumble […]

Though WrestleMania 39 is still almost two months away, that hasn’t stopped Cody Rhodes from going on a bit of a media tour to help promote his main event spot with Roman Reigns, and after six months on the shelf, “The American Nightmare” has a lot to say. Want WWE to bring back the Winged […]

The Road to WrestleMania is in full swing. After the Royal Rumble, we have a good idea of what’s to come over the next few months. We know Cody Rhodes will challenge Roman Reigns for the Undispusted Universal Championship at WrestleMania. As of right now, the match will be for both titles, not just the […]

It has been over a week since Sami Zayn’s shocking betrayal of Roman Reigns at the Royal Rumble. Not only that, it has been over a week since Jey Uso walked out on his own family in defense of Sami Zayn. I’ve said time and time before that this entire story involving The Bloodline has […]

After winning the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Tournament on Friday, Ricochet and Braun Strowman have booked themselves a one-way ticket to challenge The Usos for the SmackDown Tag Team Championships. Speaking with Megan Morant on the SmackDown LowDown, Ricochet asserted that he isn’t afraid of The Usos, especially with Strowman by his side. “Sorry, but […]

After besting three other women for the honor, Natalya is officially going to the 2023 WWE Elimination Chamber, where she will take part in a six-women match to punch a ticket to WrestleMania 39 for a match against Bianca Belair for the RAW Women’s Championship. Speaking with Megan Morant after SmackDown on the SmackDown LowDown, […]

After taking care of business against Grayson Waller at NXT Vengeance Day, Bron Breakker had a lot to say backstage, even if he said most of it while attempting to catch his breath. He complimented the crowd, complemented the WWE Universe, and even complimented the atmosphere of the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. “Ah, […]

After securing a Triple Threat victory over both members of Toxic Attraction, Gigi Dolin and Jayce Jayne at NXT Vengeance Day, Roxanne  Perez was riding high. Speaking backstage after the show, Perez celebrated what her win means to her and everyone who believes in her. “I definitely did,” Perez said. “Two against one, and honestly, […]

While Adam Cole spent most of his interview with Dave Meltzer and Garrett Gonzalez of The Wrestling Observer discussing his own injury recovery process, the NXT-turned-AEW star did find a few moments to comment on his longest frenemy in professional wrestling, Kyle O’Reilly, and how close he may be to returning to the ring. “I […]

Bron Breakker is one tough you-know-what. A second-generation star with just about the best pedigree one could imagine within WWE – even if he doesn’t use the Steiner last name – Breakker has won almost every match he’s wrestled in the promotion and has a winning record against every single performer on the NXT roster […]

Toxic Attraction were never going to leave Vengeance Day as joint NXT Women’s Champions. While sure, it would be cool to see two gals holding one championship, with the duo defending it with Freebird rules or exclusively in three-way matches, realistically, the trios match with Roxanne Perez at Vengeance Day was always going to break […]

Chase U entered NXT Vengeance Day with everything to gain and nothing to lose. Winning their spot into the four-way tag team match via the  New Day Tag Team Invitational, Andre Chase, Duke Hudson, and Thia Hail wanted to make Michael Jordan proud and leave the Queen City with gold around their waist. Unfortunately, the […]

Normally, the second fall of a Best Two out of Three Falls match is pretty boring. Like yes, technically the match can be won on the second fall of a best-of-three match, but most bookers avoid that urge to give the fans a bit more wrestling and to use it as a storytelling mechanism, especially […]

Katana Chance and Kayden Carter are everything that Fallon Henley and Kiana James aren’t in NXT. They’re a right proper tag team who actually like each other, they get along perfectly inside and out of the ring, and they aren’t lookig  to cheat in order to get their way in an NXT Vengeance Day ring. […]

It was always going to be a tough ask for Wes Lee to retain his North American Championship at NXT Vengeance Day. Though Dijak is relatively new to the NXT Universe, at least in this incarnation, he’s a big, tough, monster of a man with nothing on his mind but securing the  North American Championship […]

While Adam Cole is currently a member of AEW, working his way back from a combination shoulder/head injury that left him unable to remember matches or drive in a car for more than 15 minutes, to many fans of professional wrestling, the Lancaster, Pennsylvania native will forever be associated with NXT, where he was the […]

After two months of anticipation, Vengeance Day is here; soon the NXT sub-galaxy will find out who will be its champion head into the future, Bron Breakker or Grayson Waller, which member of Toxic Attraction unseats Roxanne Perez as Women’s Champion, assuming one does, and whether Dijak’s bite is a tough as his bark. Taking […]

After watching Natalya rip off a surprising win on SmackDown to secure a spot in the Elimination Chamber, Liv Morgan decided to congratulate the WWE veteran for her accomplishment before warning her just how physically violent the “Premium Live Event’s” signature event can be. “You might find this hard to believe, but I’m actually so […]

After finally taking care of Sonya Deville in their SmackDown-broadcasted rematch for the WWE SmackDown Women”s Championship, Megan Morant caught up with Charlotte Flair to see how she felt about Rhea Ripley declaring her intentions to wrestle the second-generation star at WrestleMania 39. Fortunately, Flair was down to talk but not before she shouted out […]

After officially turning his back on Roman Reigns and The Bloodline at the Royal Rumble, fans across the professional wrestling world wanted to know what was next for Sami Zayn. Would he show his face on SmackDown with Kevin Owens and Jey Uso, forming a trio capable of matching wits with Reigns, Jimmy Uso, and […]

When Shayna Baszler broke Natalya’s nose on WWE SmackDown, it created some serious ill-will between the two female submission specialists. Natalya was out of action for two months, had to get corrective surgery, and was absent from television as a result, which, considering how many years the survivor of the Hart Dungeon has left in […]
