If there’s anyone who knows a thing or two about creating drama, it’s Michael Cole. The longest-tenured commentator in WWE by a country mile, Cole has been instrumental in calling some of the most important matches in the promotion’s history, with his ability to give words to the drama occurring in the ring becoming an […]

Before he was exclusively running court on Saturday Nights as the new leader of the AEW World Trios Championship-holding trio, the House of Black, Malakai Black was known as Allister Black the during his tenure in NXT, he looked like he was going to be the next big thing in the WWE Universe. Sporting an […]

Tiffany Stratton officially made her debut in NXT all the way back in December of 2021, when she took care of business versus Fallon Henley in the final show of the year. From there, she’s wrestled 25 television matches, going 15-10 over her tenure, and officially became the NXT Women’s Champion at Backlash 2023, when […]

What is the greatest match in WrestleMania history? Is it Hulk Hogan versus Andre the Giant at WrestleMania III? “Macho Man” Randy Savage versus Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat at WrestleMania III? Hulk Hogan versus The Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania VI? Or maybe something more modern like Shawn Michaels versus Ric Flair at WrestleMania 24 or […]

When Natalya entered into a feud with Rhea Ripley after WrestleMania, it felt like a pretty big deal for the last active member of the Hart family in WWE. Sure, Natalya has worked more matches than any other woman in WWE, as her six new Guinness World Records clearly prove, but even a “BOAT” can […]

When Cody Rodes left AEW for WWE in January of 2022, it served as a legitimate inflection point in professional wrestling. Suddenly, after building out a roster with a steady stream of ex-WWE guys like Jon Moxley, Chris Jericho, Ruby Soho, and Toni Storm, to name a few, AEW had to watch one of its […]

When Cody Rhodes lost his match against Roman Reigns for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship at WrestleMania 39, a significant portion of his momentum was lost along with it. That may sound somewhat absurd given the crowd reactions Rhodes still receives on a nightly basis, along with his impressive merchandise sales. Nonetheless, Rhodes lost more […]

After making a massive, massive return at Money in the Bank a few hours south of his hometown of Ayr, Scotland, Drew McIntyre has had Gunther shaking in his wrestling boots, with the “Scottish Warrior” seemingly knowing the “Ring General’s” every move before he does and having an answer for every one of Imperium’s schemes, […]

After maybe costing Finn Balor a chance to dethrone Seth Rollins as the WWE World  Heavyweight Championship – depending on who you ask – Damian Priest got his just desserts two days later on RAW when the “Prince” emerged at the end of Dominik Mysterio’s match with the “Visionary” to attack the current champ just […]

After the one-two-three punch of taking a loss to Matt Riddle, being chased off by Drew McIntyre, and then being challenged to a match against the dynamic, Jimmy’s Famous Seafood-loving tag team on RAW, Gunther, Giovanni Vinci, and the rest of Imperium – aka just Ludwig Kaiser – weren’t feeling too hot when Byron Saxton […]

After securing a major win over Baron Corbin in the second week of NXT Gold Rush one day removed from his RAW debut versus Finn Balor, Carmelo Hayes, and Trick Williams were riding high, with one of the biggest challenges to the former’s NXT Championship reign eliminated. Unfortunately for Melo, Championship challengers are like members […]

After talking a whole lot of talk in his return to NXT, announcing to current NXT Champion Carmelo Hayes that he is the new gatekeeper of WWE’s developmental system, Baron Corbin was served a big ole piece of humble pie at Gold Rush when his jersey was hoisted up into the rafters of the Performances […]

Damian Priest failed at Backlash in Puerto Rico for more reasons than one. In the ring, Priest came up short against Bad Bunny, a loss mitigated by becoming Señor Money in the Bank in July but still embarrassing all things considered, but if you recall, Priest didn’t just promise to win his match. No, Priest […]

Logan Paul has been a member of the WWE Universe for roughly two years, give or take a few months. Over that tenure, he’s worked a grueling schedule of six matches, three in 2022 and three in 2023, and amassed a respectable record of 2-6, with one failed title shot versus Roman Reigns at Crown […]

If there’s one thing Kurt Angle knows a thing or two about, it’s winning championships; he beat Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to become the WWE Champion in 2000, became the inaugural TNA World Heavyweight Champion in a King of the Mountain match that also featured AJ Styles, Chris Harris, Christian Cage, and Samoa Joe, and […]

After spending the last decade together in WWE, working as a “best friends”-style tag team called “The Boss ‘n’ Hug Connection” on more than a few occasions, it must be incredibly weird for Bayley not to be working alongside Mercedes Moné, aka the “Boss” formerly known as Sasha Banks. Fortunately, professional wrestling is an ever-changing […]

Who inspired current NXT Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton to become a WWE Superstar? Was it Trish Stratus, a performer with a very similar moniker? Or maybe the Divas era of WWE, where performers leaned much more into the sort of character she portrays on WWE television? Well, as it turns out, the answer is none […]

After taking a loss at Money in the Bank thanks to the efforts of Trish Stratus, Zoey Stark, Bayley, and especially the eventual winner of the Ladder match, IYO SKY, Becky Lynch decided to get introspective with the RAW crowd in Baltimore, Maryland before turning her sights back to the task at hand. “‘The Man’ […]

After a stop-start effort in the tag team division –  winning the Women’s Tag Team Fatal Fourway at WrestleMania, taking some time off, winning the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles, unifying the tag team titles, and then losing the tag team titles to Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez – Shayna Baszler and Ronda Rousey have […]

Logan Paul is celebrating his engagement to Nina Agdal. On their one year anniversary, the WWE star popped the question in Lake Como, Italy.

After securing the win and then landing a save from a returning Drew McIntyre on the fallout edition of RAW after Money in the Bank, Matt Riddle was incredibly happy to have a friend in his corner in Baltimore, so much so that they duo spent some time chatting backstage long after the 1-2-3. “Dude, […]

After taking an absolute beating at the hands of the “A-Lister” on the previous edition of RAW, Tommaso Ciampa had something to say to The Miz and didn’t want to risk watering down his message due to the time constraints of television, so, as he’s become accustomed to doing, the “Blackheart” took to social media […]

After watching Cody Rhodes get into a brutal brawl with Brock Lesnar in the opening segment of RAW, WWE’s newest backstage reporter, Jackie Redmond, decided to call out the “American Nightmare” once more to see if he has anything to say on the return of the “Beast Incarnate.” Fortunately, Rhodes did have something to say […]

After securing a commanding win at Money in the Bank, Seth Rollins was afforded a chance to run down the PLE card on the fallout edition of RAW, recalling all of the major moments by The Usos, Cody Rhodes, and Señor and Miss Money in the Bank. “Whoa, Baltimore, well you sound so sweet, but […]

Despite being offered the world, singles gold, his name in […]

On-screen, Finn Balor hates Edge; the “Prince” dislikes how he handled The Judgment Day, going so far as to kick him out of the group on the same day he joined it, dislikes his babyface turn, and really dislikes that he had to receive more than a dozen staples to the head after a botched […]

Becky Lynch has been a member of the WWE Universe since 2012, when she retired her Rebecca Knox and Komeera monikers to move to Orlando and become one of the first members of the NXT roster.

After three long years of factional dominance, holding down the top of the WWE card in the singles and tag team divisions with little remorse for the rest of the locker room – heck, they probably had their own locker room the whole darn time, so who doubly cares – The Bloodline finally went to […]

In the penultimate match of Money in the Bank, Seth Rollins was afforded a chance to defend his WWE World Heavyweight Championship in his highest-profile match yet, going face-to-face with Finn Balor in a championship rematch seven years in the making.

After watching Damian Priest disappointingly win the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder match, Shayna Baszler turn on Ronda Rousey, Drew McIntyre return, John Cena return, and Cody Rhodes defeat Dominik Mysterio one-on-one – though not necessarily in that order – the WWE Universe was treated to the second Money in the Bank Ladder match […]
