When Swerve Strickland took the ring against – and a syringe to the cheek from – “Hangman” Adam Page,  AEW was making a certified choice. To some, the match was a masterful piece of storytelling, the physical tale of two men who committed crimes to get each other’s goat brought to a bloody conclusion, with […]

After going quiet for a week or so, leading fans to believe their beef was officially on ice, Kevin Nash blazed back in a big way on his Kliq This podcast, bringing up Logan Paul once more to discuss his lack of respect for the business due to his absence from house shows and weekly […]

WWE in 2024 is a very different place than at any point in the promotion’s history, and not just because Cody Rhodes finally became the Undisputed Universal Champion. The promotion is not only very popular with its wrestlers but in free agency at large, with big-name free agents like Giulia, Stephanie Vaquer, the Lucha Brothers, […]

When Paul “Triple H” Levesque took over for Vince McMahon as the new creative lead of the WWE Universe, becoming the CCO of the promotion in September of 2022, the changes came swiftly and with incredible fanfare. Suddenly, RAW and SmackDown had more wrestling with fewer camera cuts, matches actually had finishes, and the promotion’s […]

After watching Paul “Triple H” Levesque take the ring to welcome fans to Friday Night SmackDown, its first show back on network television after spending a few years on Fox, fans got down to their main event, which actually went on first: Cody Rhodes versus Solo Sikoa for the WWE Championship inside a steel cage. […]

When an angry Rikishi ripped off the following quote on his Off The Top podcast after repeatedly watching his son, Jey Uso, get overlooked for opportunities on television, it turned heads around the IWC for, well, obvious reasons. “It’s a concern. At the end of the day, these are our bodies, and this is my […]

Seemingly any time WWE announces a new set of releases, be it developmental guys like Von Wagner or top-end talent like Matt Riddle and Bobby Lashley, fans will declare some version of the following statement: AEW bound. Now granted, there is some truth to this statement, as Tony Khan has been willing to sign wrestlers […]

The WWE power couple of Cody and Brandi Rhodes are celebrating their 11th anniversary. The latter took to X, formerly Twitter, to share her gratitude for her husband. “Happy 11 years of marriage to the love of my life,” Brandi’s post began. “My partner, best friend, greatest love, and biggest supporter. No one compares to […]

After doing a play-by-play analysis of Shannon Sharpe’s NSFW Instagram Live, WWE star R-Truth has mimicked the infamous livestream. He took to his own Instagram Live to poke fun at Sharpe. The video, which was posted by @WrestleOps on X, formerly Twitter, is framed as if R-Truth is unaware of the camera being on. His […]

As Shannon Sharpe went viral for an explicit Instagram Live, WWE star R-Truth weighed in, calling a play-by-play of the events. Thanks to screenshots from @ProWFinesse on X, formerly Twitter, R-Truth’s comments can be read. He sent in several messages, including, “Are they F**KIN??? Excuse my French.” He then continued, saying, “Yoo UNC, that’s not […]

When Drew McIntyre debuted in WWE all the way back in 2007, he looked very different than the man fans have come to know and love in 2024. For one thing, he didn’t have a beard, was in his early 20s, and didn’t yet have the absolutely jacked physique that has become synonymous with the […]

At this point, Dave Bautista is about as well known for his on-screen roles as his in-ring efforts, with “The Animal” going from WWE Champion to international box office superstar for roles in films like Blader Runner 2049, The Killing Game, and as a member of the Guardians of the Galaxy, with which he has […]

Though Ricochet has technically already debuted in AEW, wrestling in the Casino Gauntlet match at All In and working a singles television debut against Kyle Fletcher on Dynamite, fans still aren’t 100 percent sure where the “First in Flight” stands within Tony Khan’s company. Is Ricochet a babyface, as he is a fan favorite for […]

While Bryan Danielson’s career is rapidly coming to a close, with the “American Dragon” a single title loss away from calling his full-time professional wrestling run a career, there was a time when fans truly weren’t sure where he would end up, in Tony Khan land or back with WWE, where he had plenty of […]

Dwight Howard might be on his way to retirement from the NBA, but there’s one career move the eight-time All-Star is officially closing the door on — professional wrestling. Despite previously expressing interest in joining the WWE, Howard revealed to TMZ Sports that his dreams of stepping into the squared circle have been squashed, thanks […]

When John Cena formally announced at Money in the Bank that he was retiring from professional in 2025 to follow in the footsteps of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Dave Bautista in Hollywood, it got fans in their feelings. Sure, Cena was going to make plenty of appearances in WWE before he officially hangs up […]

When CM Punk’s initial run in the WWE Universe came to an end, it felt like the system had won. Widely celebrated for being the “Voice of the Voiceless,” a hero to the hardcore fans who missed the WWE they grew up on, Punk fought the system at every turn, went to bat against the […]

When it comes to professional wrestling, few Hall of Famers are as willing to get into the digital trenches to speak their minds and talk some you-know-what about one thing or another as Kevin Nash, the former “Big Daddy Cool Diesel” who might just have the most legendary feud of his career against LA Knight […]

The WWE is selling the bracelet  that has been the crux of CM Punk and Drew McIntyre’s feud for $9.99. The original creator has weighed in on the matter. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), @victoriaaze_ seemingly did not know the WWE was going to start monetizing the bracelets. They said, “A heads up would have […]

With WWE off of Peacock for the next few weeks as fans experience the rare month without a PLE, Drew McIntyre took to the ring on RAW to celebrate his recent beatdown of the “Best in the World,” CM Punk, who hasn’t been seen on television since. On paper, this was pretty textbook stuff for […]

When Bret Hart was announced for a special appearance on RAW in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, fans just had to know he would interact with some member of the WWE Universe, but who would it be? Would he hype up a babyface like Sami Zayn? Get into it with a heel like Gunther? Or simply address […]

When Cody Rhodes took the ring against Solo Sikoa in the main event of SummerSlam, it felt like a big deal. Sure, the build-up to their fateful showdown wasn’t what you would call expansive, as the “Street Champ” was a mere footnote in his larger feud with Roman Reigns, The Rock, and The Bloodline as […]

As crazy as it may sound, Jimmy Uso has officially been off of WWE television and, in turn, out of The Bloodline, for almost five months, being jumped out of the faction by Tama Tonga in a move designed to fully consolidate power around the new “Tribal Chief” Solo Sikoa. In his time away, Uso […]

“Oh yeah, my back is fine,” WWE and The Killer’s Game star Drew McIntyre reassured me. We are speaking just a day after CM Punk brutally attacked McIntyre on Monday Night RAW ahead of their strap match at Bash in Berlin, whipping him. McIntyre is fine, though, and promised to “beat him until he turns […]

When it comes to The Bloodline, at least during Roman Reigns’ time as the “Tribal Chief,” WWE fans routinely compared their storyline to the most polarizing term in professional wrestling: cinema. Unlike in wrestling past, where workers would loudly declare their intentions in the ring with bravado and swagger, The Bloodline would talk quietly in […]

When it comes to having success under both of WWE’s 21st-century bookers, few performers hold a candle to Drew McIntyre. Originally brought into WWE as Vince McMahon’s “Chosen One,” McIntyre won both of his WWE World Championships under the former Chairman of the Board and was given the tough ask of being the face of […]

With Bash in Berlin officially in the rearview mirror, Cody Rhodes can finally turn his attention away from a friendly feud with Kevin Owens to his biggest task at hand, Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline. On paper, it makes sense, right? Sikoa called next last month regardless of how the Bash shook out, and while […]

For the longest time, there has been a widely circulated unofficial beef between MVP and Triple H, with many using the actions of the former to accuse the latter of being racist. Now granted, MVP has brought much of that on himself, liking posts and subtweeting the WWE CCO for how he’s treated the Hurt […]

When it comes to professional wrestling, Adam Copeland has seen more than most. He’s been the hot new gun, he’s wrestled against some of the biggest stars in the world, been one of the biggest stars in the world, prematurely retired, and returned to lead a faction designed to elevate the next generation of stars […]

While who is the WWE’s GOAT (Greatest of All Time) is subjective, John Cena thinks it’s Roman Reigns. During an appearance at Bloomberg’s Power Players Summit, Reigns was asked about Cena’s recent praise for him. Cena pointed at Reigns’ box office value and how the WWE’s stock rose with his increasing popularity. “Numbers don’t lie,” […]

A new Netflix documentary chronicles the rise and fall of controversial businessman, former WWE chairman, and WWE co-founder Vince McMahon.

[…]

A new poster for The Killer’s Game, WWE superstar Drew McIntyre‘s movie acting debut, has dropped. He stars alongside fellow WWE legend Dave Bautista in it.

Legendary WWE wrestler Bill Goldberg’s son, Gage Goldberg, is a walk-on player on Colorado’s football team, headed by Deion Sanders. The former professional wrestler has a strong message for Sanders’ detractors. “They’re gonna be a hell of a lot better than they were last year,” Goldberg said of Colorado football to CBS Sports. “I think […]

While there still may be a few weeks left in the latest edition of the “Summer of CM Punk,” fans have, for better or worse, been treated to “Hulk Hogan Week,” as, after making a much-publicized appearance on Logan Paul’s ImPaulsive, the “Hulkamaniac” decided to talk wrestling with Bill Apter of Sportskeeda. And what did […]

Heading into All In, it’s safe to say Adam Copeland was having the run of his post-retirement career as a member of AEW. He was a two-time TNT Champion, a beloved veteran consistently giving new guys shots with his CopeOpen, and the first man to get a singles Pay-Per-View match with Malakai Black since Forbidden […]

When Hulk Hogan decides to give a long-form interview, like his recent appearance on ImPaulsive with Logan Paul, fans just know that he’s going to drop some of the hottest takes imaginable. The first story to go viral from his appearance was rather straightforward; Hogan boldly declared that not only could Paul become the top […]

While the return of Roman Reigns dominated the talk of the town, the WWE packed the summer with memorable moments. From other iconic returns to a tragic betrayal, here are the six best moments from the WWE’s summer. 1. The Original Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns, returns (SummerSlam) During the main event of SummerSlam, Roman Reigns […]

When news broke that Hulk Hogan was going to be the guest this week on Logan Paul’s ImPaulsive podcast, fans just had to know they were in for a show. Now, normally, if Paul has a WWE personality on his show, something is going to come out of it, as he has no issue at […]

When NXT makes its official debut on The CW in October, fans won’t just be tuning in to see “All Ego” Ethan Page, Trick Williams, Roxanne Perez, Oba Femi, and (probably) Joe Hendry – should someone say his name – but also the “Best in the World,” CM Punk, who will be appearing on the […]
