In professional wrestling, there is no concept more entertainingly polarizing than Mount Rushmore, with even one of the luminaries of the industry – and Mount Rushmore caliber talents – like Ric Flair not immune to these questions and the questions that result from them. Sitting down for an interview with The Breakfast Club to discuss […]

Though Rey Mysterio has some pretty legendary feuds and friendships over his three-decade-plus career in the squared circle, the one that stands above the rest belongs to Eddie Guerrero, the do-it-all técnico who passed away in 2005. From his founding of the LWO to his unique move set that still gets replicated by luchadors to […]

After shooting his shot on Rey Mysterio after securing a celebrity boxing win over Dillon Danis, Logan Paul made his triumphant return to WWE in order to demand a shot at the United States Championship at Crown Jewel… or maybe not. No, while that felt like the most obvious outcome for the segment, as Paul […]

Mark Henry has seen a lot in his professional wrestling career. He’s seen stars come and go, watched his own profile go from faction member to World Heavyweight Champion to elder statesman of the industry, and now happily finds himself a member of AEW, where he wears a number of hats from producer to confidant, […]

When Drew McIntyre‘s initial run in WWE came to an end almost a decade ago, few expected him to eventually rise to the top of the industry and become a world champion in the biggest company in professional wrestling. So what changed? Well, McIntyre, McIntyre changed. Sitting down for an interview with Good Karma Wrestling, […]

Mick Foley has been a part of some of the most incredible and important matches in professional wrestling history, A versatile performer who has wrestled all over the world, across dozens of promotions, and in just about any stipulation match a booker could dream up, Foley has crafted a legacy that is borderline unmatched in […]

Chris Jericho is a man very familiar with the concept of Mount Rushmores. One of the most prolific performers of the past 30 years, Jericho deserves consideration for more than a few top four lists based on the famous landmark in South Dakota – or the Pro Wrestling Guerrilla faction featuring Kevin Steen, Adam Cole, […]

Randy Orton’s return to WWE is right around the corner, with some reports saying he’ll be back for Survivor Series next month. It’s been well over a year since we’ve last seen Orton in a WWE ring after dealing with a serious back injury, a health issue so bad fans thought maybe he’d have to […]

Though Rey Mysterio may be most widely regarded for his time in WWE, as he is a certified Hall of Famer who celebrated 20 years in the promotion earlier this year, it’s easy to forget that the 5-foot-4 luchador had a pretty prolific career in the ring before landing in The Fed and even had […]

When WWE threw out the former general manager system that featured Paul Heyman and Eric Bischoff overseeing RAW and SmackDown – sure, technically, they were called “executive directors,” but same difference – Adam Pearce was left with the unenviable position of having to helm both brands, which needless to say, made for some Kayfabe strangeness. […]

After making the vague announcement that Sting would be addressing the AEW audience on Dynamite, fans waited with bated breath to see what the 63-year-old had to say. Would he be announcing some new venture? Addressing his part in the situation between Adam Copeland and Christian Cage? Or would he be delivering his dreaded retirement […]

After watching his tag team win streak come to an end alongside Grayson Waller in the first and only successful Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship defense of Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso’s run with the straps, you’d think Austin Theory would be feeling pretty down in the dumps. The momentum train is dashed, the titles […]

As crazy as it may sound, it has officially been over five years since fans saw The Bella Twins, now known as Brie and Nikki Garcia, share the ring together. True pioneers of female professional wrestling within the WWE and beyond, the Bellas were innovators, using their offscreen efforts to fuel on-screen interest and working […]

When Paul “Triple H” Levesque not only introduced Nick Aldis to the WWE Universe but revealed him as the new SmackDown General Manager, it turned a lot of heads around the professional wrestling world, and not exclusively in a positive way. Sure, many, if not most fans familiar with the “National Treasure’s” schtick were happy […]

When AEW and WWE ran Dynamite and NXT head-on on October 10th, it rekindled a war between the two promotions that has been ever present since the challenger brand launched on television in 2019 but has been in a bit of a lull since Shawn Michaels’ show was moved to Tuesday nights. … or did […]

Though she doesn’t use her famous uncle’s last name – or even her father’s last name, for that matter – in the ring as a member of the WWE Universe, Natalya wears her influences from Bret Hart and Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart on her sleeve any time she steps into a professional wrestling ring, as […]

When Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Shawn Michaels, and Paul “Triple H” Levesque all hugged in the center of the ring following the former two’s final match, at least at the time, in WWE, in an event now known as the “Curtain Call,” it played a pretty big part in killing the concept of Kayfabe forever. […]

When Brutus Clay was released from WWE in 2014, few expected the path he would take alongside long-time Smashing Pumpkins frontman/future NWA owner Billy Corgan.

As crazy as it may sound for fans who have been watching professional wrestling for a while, Natalya is rapidly approaching 17 years as a member of the WWE Universe, making her debuts in FCW and WWE proper under the Nattie Neidhart moniker in 2007. Since that fateful day, the second-generation Superstar has wrestled some […]

After two months and two WWE main roster Premium Live Events away, Logan Paul will officially be returning to WWE for the first time since SummerSlam on the 10/20 edition of SmackDown, where he will address the current United States Champion, Rey Mysterio.

After being straddled with a weird gimmick in a faction they clearly didn’t want to join, the Grizzled Young Veterans, Zack Gibson and James Drake, have officially left the WWE Universe behind to return to their gimmick and presentation from the indies. Did the duo go out gracefully, thanking everyone in NXT for their time […]

After getting into it with Seth Rollins in a promo battle for the ages that all but locked in the dramatic stakes of his Crown Jewel match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Drew McIntyre took to the backstage area on Monday Night RAW to attend to another matter regarding a man very familiar with […]

When new SmackDown GM Nick Aldis announced Kevin Owens as the newest member of the Blue Brand following Jey Uso’s trade to RAW back in September, it left the WWE Universe wondering what was next for Sami Zayn, his long-time friend and current tag team partner. Fortunately, fans didn’t have to wait long to find […]

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard the news that Vince McMahon, the creative mastermind behind WWF and now WWE since he purchased the company from his father, Vincent J. McMahon, all the way back in the early 1980s, is officially out of creative power within the company, with his son-in-law, Paul […]

Jim Cornette is not the biggest fan of The Elite, Tony Khan, or AEW as a whole. Sure, there are some acts he enjoys, even if he often suggests that they would be better off presented in another promotion like MJF or Toni Storm, but as a whole, Cornette isn’t the biggest fan of what […]

When Jade Cargill and Charlotte Flair locked eyes for the first time ever on the season premiere of SmackDown, it turned heads around the professional wrestling world.

When Edge, aka the “Rated-R Superstar,” aka Adam Copeland, returned to WWE in 2020 after nearly a decade on the shelf, it created a golden opportunity for the WWE Hall of Famer to check a few more items off of his wrestling wish list.

If there’s one thing Ric Flair knows a thing or two about even now, it’s the psychology of professional wrestling. Sure, he might not be perfectly synced with all of the new ways of doing things, as he likely can’t tell the difference between a Hurricanrana and a Poison Rana and probably wouldn’t care to […]

Though WWE still technically has another Premium Live Event, Crown Jewel, scheduled before it, they will soon be taking the show on the road to Chicago, Illinois, for a special Thanksgiving-adjacent edition of Survivor Series, when CM Punk may or may not make his triumphant return after being fired from AEW for lunging at Tony […]

After securing a huge, though controversial win over Dillon Danis in celebrity boxing, Logan Paul caught up with Ariel Helwani in the ring to talk about the fight, his feelings, and his future.
