No title in either the WWE, or any other promotion really, has changed hands more than the 24/7 Championship. Though it was only christened in 2019 and handed to Titus O’Neal by none other than Mick Foley, the belt has changed handed on 177 different occasions since its inception and has been held by everyone […]

After weeks of anticipation, Logan Paul and The Miz finally had their face-to-face encounter on WWE‘s RAW, and the results were downright… fruity. That’s right, after Paul made it abundantly clear that he wasn’t going to tag with Miz moving forward in the pursuit of the Undisputed Tag Team Championships after the “Awesome One” double-crossed […]

After being rumored to wrestle everyone from A.J. Styles to Chris Jericho, Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat, and even Ricky Morton – which actually almost happened – Ric Flair‘s final opponents, plural, have officially been announced for his Final Match: Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal. That’s… a choice. Now granted, Flair won’t be alone in his […]

Becky Lynch wants her WWE belt back, and she doesn’t care who knows it. Ever since she lost the RAW Women’s Championship all the way back at WrestleMania 38, Lynch has been devising ways to get in the ring with Bianca Belair with the belt on the line and though it hasn’t always worked out […]

After the “Cena Celebration” live from Laredo, Texas was a responding success, it’s only right that the WWE Universe returns to the idea again to celebrate another one of the promotion’s longest-tenured stars in Rey Mysterio in a celebration of his own, broadcast live from the wrestling mecca, Madison Square Garden on July 25th. NEXT […]

When Randy Orton went down with a potentially career-threatening injury, it prematurely put to bed indefinitely one of the hottest tag teams in the entire WWE Universe, RK-Bro. While Riddle has attempted to keep his head above water and focused on bouts against Roman Reigns on SmackDown, a half dozen of his peers in the […]

As the WWE inches closer and closer to their biggest show of the summer, SummerSlam, matches for their Big Four Premium Live Event are going to be announced with increasing frequency. Angles will be set up on RAW, on SmackDown, and even potentially on NXT 2.0, and the storylines for each will grow increasingly more […]

For much of the afternoon of Monday, July 18th, 2022, WWE fans were abuzz with a rumor that maybe, just maybe, A.J. Styles would be announced as the final opponent of Ric Flair at his end-of-the-month event being advertised as his “Final Match.” Would it actually happen? Would Vince McMahon actually allow one of his […]

Though she hasn’t been a member of the WWE Universe since 2020, Maria Kanellis has consistently received questions from fans of herself, her husband Mike (Kanellis) Bennett, and of Vince McMahon’s company in general ever since due to her endearing popularity in the professional wrestling world. Sure, she’s found plenty of success elsewhere, including her […]

When news broke that the wrestler formerly known in NXT as Harland, Parker Boudreaux, made a surprise appearance at AEW‘s Dark tapings live from Orlando, Florida, it sent minor shockwaves through the independent wrestling world. Infamously known online as some variation of ‘Next Brock Lesnar’ or ‘Brock Lesnar 2.0,’ the supersized former Central Florida/Notre Dame […]

After weeks away from WWE television, including a notable absence from Money in the Bank 2022, Kevin Owens is reportedly heading back to RAW for Monday’s edition of the show broadcast live from the Amalie Arena in sunny Tampa, Florida. Yes, after being notably absent from the June 20th edition of RAW, likely because he […]

Though he hasn’t been a member of the WWE Universe on a full-time basis since he was released from his contract in the spring of 2020, Kurt Angle will forever be linked to the promotion he wrestled from 1998 to 2006. He’s been back in The Fed on multiple occasions, including reportedly being offered a […]

When John Cena isn’t playing the Peacemaker, appearing in commercials, or making his way back to the WWE Universe for events like the Cena Celebration on RAW, he does normal things like you, me, and everyone else. He cooks dinner, watches TV, and when he feels up to it, relentlessly posts memes on his must-follow […]

As you may or may not have noticed, Bayley has been gone from WWE for quite some time, having suffered a torn ACL in the lead-up to Money in the Bank 2021. Though the last name-less superstar has still remained a fixture of the WWE Universe, with the occasional appearance on the company’s television programming […]

In case you haven’t heard, Ric Flair is set to wrestle a match later this month featuring more than a few interesting performers spanning the histories of AEW, NJPW, Impact, and even WWE also on the card. … yup, you read that correctly, we’re talking about the ‘Rolex wearing, diamond ring wearing, kiss stealing, wheeling […]

2022 hasn’t gone as planned for NXT Superstar Indi Hartwell. She lost her father figure, Johnny Gargano, when he let his contract expire, her mother figure, Candice LeRae, when her contract expired in May and, after getting Kayfabe married to Dexter Lumis in a good old-fashioned wedding segment, she lost him too, as he was […]

If there’s one decision the WWE probably wishes they could do differently over the past few years, at least in the ring, it’s probably having Bill Goldberg defeat “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt at their Super ShowDown show in Saudi Arabia. The Fiend was smoking hot, winning the WWE Universal Championship over Seth Rollins in a Falls […]

The Street Profits have been one of the best tag teams in the WWE for a very, very, very long time. Since initially debuting all the way back in 2016, when Montez Ford was then known as Kenneth Crawford, the duo have gone on to wrestle together on 403 occasions in every city imaginable as […]

When WWE signed Parker Boudreaux as part of their 2020 NXT recruiting class, it felt like a really big deal. A collegiate offensive lineman who started his career off at Notre Dame before transferring to Center Florida, the tackle-turned-grappler stood an imposing 6-foot-4, 300 pounds, and had a certain kind of look – muscular and […]

It’s July, which means that 2022 the calendar year is officially half over. The days will start to get shorter, the weather will eventually cool off, and the WWE Universe will prepare for the back half of their slate of Big Four Premium Live Events, with SummerSlam coming later this month and Survivor Series scheduled […]

When Bret Hart was screwed out of his WWF Championship in front of a packed Montreal crowd at Survivor Series 1997, it shook the wrestling world to its very core. The move shocked the local crowd who loved their home country hero, heated up the feud between the company now known as WWE and the […]

After being released by the WWE in June due to a “policy violation” and then being Kayfabe killed off of NXT television in a move that would make Lucha Underground blush, the man formerly known as Troy “Two Dimes” Donovan is headed back to the independent wrestling scene, where he previously performed as Cole Karter. […]

When Lio Rush arrived in AEW as the joker entrant of the Double or Nothing Casino Battle Royal, it felt special. Rush was incredibly hot due to his time in MLW, GCW, CZW, and Ring of Honor, and even if he’s flirted with retirement in the past, the prospects of adding the “Man of the […]

When it comes to being creative in their intimidation tactics, leave it to WWE’s The New Day to bring their own brand of zaniness to the table. After weeks of going back and forth, this week’s SmackDown featured a new look for The New Day, or rather The New Raid, as Kofi Kingston and Xavier […]

For one reason or another, matches between The Usos and The Street Profits just can’t get a clean ending in the WWE Universe. At Money in the Bank, Jimmy and Jay secured the W despite failing to keep both of Montez Ford’s shoulders on the mat, and a few weeks later in Orlando, the Profits […]

You have to give it to the WWE and to the man formerly known as LA Knight/Eli Drake/Shaun Ricker, the commitment to Max Dupri and his Maximum Male Models has been honestly pretty impressive. No matter how much fans boo, social media users make fun of them, and OGs like Jim Cornette ridicule the trio […]

When AEW signed “The Big Show” Paul Wight away from WWE when that chapter of his career came to a close, it was to be a commentator. Sure, many expected to see Wight in the ring at least for a moment, maybe in an enforcer’s role, or simply a spot or two from time to […]

In case you haven’t heard, Triple H is officially back in the WWE after an extended absence brought on by his dismissal from the top spot at NXT and the discovery of a heart condition that forced him to officially retire from the ring once and for all. With Vince McMahon replaced by his daughter […]

Since being released from WWE, Killer don’t-call-him-Karrion Kross has been up to quite a bit; he’s reunited with in-ring manager/out-of-the-ring wife Scarlett Bordeaux, recaptured his powerhouse status as an in-ring monster, and wrestled for a half a dozen different promotions, including Warrior, MLW, NJPW, and even Control Your Narrative (CYN), the promotion started by EC3 […]

After months of rumors, speculation, and internal reporting that hasn’t quite resulted in tangible updates, fans the WWE Universe over have one simple question: Is Sasha Banks – and Naomi – still employed by WWE? Has the promotion officially released their most recent Tag Team Champions, with only a 90-day non-compete clause standing between their […]

The WWE Universe has long been waiting for the return of lovable big guy Big E (real name: Ettore Ewen) to the wrestling ring. The New Day member has been out of commission since March of this year after a botched suplex from Ridge Holland. Ever since that terrifying injury, fans have been speculating about […]

After a few months away from a wrestling ring, some wondered what would come next for Claudio “don’t-call-him-Cesaro” Castagnoli following his decision not to re-sign with WWE. Would he go to AEW, what about NJPW? Goodness, could it have all been a charade, with the Swiss Superman returning to SmackDown as a Maximum Male Model? […]

When Roxanne Perez was stabbed – or should I say skateboarded – in the back by her NXT Tag Team Championship-winning partner Cora Jade, it sent the WWE Universe into a bit of a tizzy. The team just won the belts the week before, had been buddies for months, and felt like they could have […]

There was a time in the not-too-distant past when it looked like Swerve Scott and Keith Lee were going to be two of the biggest stars in the WWE. On paper, the two had everything going for them; Scott was the leader of a white-hot faction with the potential for real world entertainment tie-ins in […]

In quite possibly the weirdest story you will read all day, a largely forgotten WWE team from the mid-2010s has re-emerged in AEW. No, not The Nexus, the Hype Bros, or even the Edgeheads – now called something like the Christian Chads – but the Real Americans, Cesaro and Jack Swagger, now wrestling against each […]

What happens when a pair of tag team champions start a feud with each other? Well, the WWE Universe is about to find out, as the lone Women’s Tag Team Champions in the company, Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez of NXT, just saw their union foiled by the former turning a totally not gimmicked skateboard […]

The build to WWE‘s SummerSlam has been interesting. Riding high off of the momentum of a very successful Money in the Bank, folks were excited to see how the card would shake out and which new, fun, or exciting matches would be booked for the big-time show in Nashville, Tennessee. The Usos will wrestle The […]
