During an interview with Variety, Joker: Folie à Deux director Todd Phillips revealed he is no longer working on the project. While he […]

When it comes to Paul Heyman, he doesn’t really think about The Bloodline’s storyline in terms of the PLE schedule, the calendar year, or even title lengths but instead through the lens of a baseball game, with each chapter of the storyline viewed instead as an inning for the native New Yorker. Now granted, this […]

Though the news technically broke before the start of Monday Night RAW, with the former All-Pro punter letting his fans know on social media to tune into WWE’s flagship show to see his final regular appearance of the year, Michael Cole and company made sure to make it official during the three-hour broadcast: Pat McAfee […]

After watching CM Punk shout out Florida Panthers executive Roberto Luongo and declare himself “Taylor Swift for men” in an incredible segment on Monday Night RAW, the fans in Sunrise, Florida, were treated to the task at hand: Drew McIntyre versus the “Second City Saint” at Bash in Berlin.

When AEW announced that Mercedes Mone was releasing her own digital newsletter, the Moné Mag Weekly, coming to fans “Live From the Desk of the CEO,” it seemed like a relatively non-story for fans of professional wrestling. Sure, Mone has told a few fun stories, opened up about her past, present, and future in the […]

During a recent poll of the WWE locker room, Seth Rollins revealed he and his wife, Becky Lynch, do not watch Love Island.

Though Roman Reigns has been back in the WWE Universe for a few weeks now, making his triumphant return at SummerSlam and appearing on both episodes of SmackDown since costing Solo Sikoa the WWE Championship against Cody Rhodes, one aspect of his presentation has been sorely lacking: “The Wiseman” Paul Heyman. Now granted, this is […]

After teasing his return to the WWE ring for a promo one week after leaving massive marks on Drew McIntyre’s back with a leather strap, CM Punk didn’t go full-on fire and brimstone, accusing his foe of being evil, heartless, or a bully – okay, he eventually got there – but instead to shout out […]

With Cody Rhodes set to wrestle his friend Kevin Owens at Bash in Berlin as a sort of favor for always having his back, more than a few fans have had one question in particular about the “American Nightmare’s” future schedule: why not give a similar shot to Randy Orton? On paper, it makes sense, […]

When it comes to certified Vince McMahon haters, few are as high profile and long-lasting as Bret Hart, the former WWF Champion and leader of the Hart Foundation, who has been feuding with the former Chairman of the Board both work and shoot since the Montreal Screwjob back in the 1990s. Now even at the […]

As John Cena prepares for the final year of his professional wrestling career, fans have been clamoring to see who “The Champ” will wrestle in 2025. Will he challenge Cody Rhodes for the WWE Championship? Or maybe go for Bron Breakker’s IC Title to become a Grand Slam Champion? Could Cena wrestle Randy Orton once […]

While CM Punk has almost been outside of the AEW Galaxy for a full year now, with his infamous fight with Jack Perry coming just before the opening match of last year’s All In at Wembley Stadium, the “Second City Saint” just can’t help but get asked questions about his former home and how his […]

After promising a show filled to the brim with shocks, twists, and surprises, the one big surprise “debut” – re-debut? – of SummerSlam didn’t come from a free agent-signee from Japan, CMLL, or even AEW, but instead a certified WWE Hall of Famer who hasn’t worked a match since 2000: the “Enforcer” Arn Anderson. Now, […]

Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton went to battle on the hardwood during the New York Knicks vs. Indiana Pacers second-round playoff series this past season, but it’s possible we could eventually see them on a different battleground: a WWE ring.

As Bryan Danielson prepares for what could very well be his final match as a professional wrestler at All In, going face-to-face with Swerve Strickland in a World Championship versus Career match in the main event, the “American Dragon” has been feeling somewhat nostalgic about his career, and not just because of Tony Khan’s excellent […]

For the second time this summer, the Anoa’i-Fatu family has lost one of its true luminaries in WWE Hall of Famer Afa Anoa’i, who has sadly passed away at 81, almost two months after the passing of his brother and fellow Wild Samoan Sika Anoa’i. Beginning his professional wrestling career after his exit from the […]

Arguably the most surprising storyline to come out of SummerSlam weekend wasn’t WWE’s decision to split up the Judgment Day, having Bron Breakker become the IC Champion in a relatively meh match against Sami Zayn, or even the return of Roman Reigns, but instead the return of the Hardy Boyz, Jeff and Matt Hardy, who […]

With Scott D’Amore officially out of the Impact Zone after a failed attempt to buy the promotion out from under current owner Anthem, it’s safe to say the face of TNA wrestling is Joe Hendry, even if he now gets much more acclaim for his appearances in the WWE Universe as the fastest-rising star in […]

While Cody Rhodes’ WWE Championship victory over Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL was euphoric, it has a big issue. It all comes back to the Bloodline, the faction led by Reigns during his dominant run as champion. Not only is Reigns’ looming presence felt, but the return of the Final Boss, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, […]

While he is primarily known for being a 14-time WWE world champion, Randy Orton almost went Hollywood in Deadpool 2. The Viper revealed that he could have been in a Marvel movie.

In Paul Feig’s movie Jackpot!, John Cena plays a bodyguard of a young woman (Awkwafina) who wins the lottery. It is almost like a twist from the Purge movies or John Wick 3.

Two new Persona Cards have been revealed to be coming to WWE 2K24 in the coming weeks. One is for Scott Steiner, and the other is for the Undertaker – two legends respected in the industry as some of the best to have ever laced a pair of boots. The new 1.15 update for WWE […]

There was a time in early 2022 when the hottest storyline in AEW, nay, professional wrestling period, revolved around the heated feud between MJF and CM Punk.

When Dominik Mysterio assisted Liv Morgan in her pursuit of the Woman’s World Championship at SummerSlam, it not only cost Rhea Ripley a shot at the title she never lost but broke up arguably the most popular relationship within the WWE Universe despite seemingly settling their issues heading into the show.

[…]

In 2025, John Cena will hit the road for WWE for one final trip around the sun, wrestling matches, cutting promos, and selling so much merch it will make Taylor Swift check her sheets to compare numbers.

With All In rapidly approaching, one question that has been on the top of fans’ minds has been the promotion’s rumored interest in Shane McMahon, the former heir apparent to WWE who has since been allowed to hit free agency after a disapointing final showing at WrestleMania 39. On paper, adding a McMahon to AEW’s […]

Drew McIntyre is one of the top superstars in the WWE today after being handpicked by Vince McMahon himself in 2009 as The Chosen One. It’s been quite some time since the Scottish Warrior last hoisted a world title, and McIntyre is currently recovering from injuries he incurred from a sneak attack by CM Punk. However, […]

As AEW prepares for its biggest show of the year, All In, at Wembley Stadium, the biggest storyline surrounding the promotion isn’t the retirement of Bryan Danielson, the past sins of Swerve Strickland, the confusing booking of the Young Bucks, or even the Revolutionary War between MJF and Will Ospreay but instead the contract status […]

In the main event of SummerSlam, WWE made it official: Roman Reigns is back, and he’s seemingly all-in on proving who really sits at the head of the Anoa’i-Fatu family as the “Tribal Chief.” Now granted, the “OTC” has been on WWE television for about five minutes combined between SummerSlam and SmackDown, hasn’t wrestled an […]
