Depending on which rumors you believe, CM Punk is either definitely returning to WWE at Survivor Series, maybe making his way back to The Fed in his hometown arena, or is not making a return at all, with both sides making cheeky references to the other to make light of their inability to make a […]

After securing a massive win over Drew McIntyre at Crown Jewel, Seth Rollins almost had to pull double duty when Damian Priest marched down to the ring with his signature purple Money in the Bank briefcase to cash in his contract for a shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Now, to Rollins, this was […]

Before he was Bray Wyatt, before he was “The Fiend,” before he was the “Eater of Worlds,” and even before he had a thrown-together family from Florida, Windham Rotunda was Husky Harris, a light-hearted member of Nexus who came and went with a whimper, not a roar. While to some, this could have been viewed […]

Ric Flair hasn’t even been a member of AEW for a month, at least officially, and yet, not even the addition of Adam Copeland has earned as many headlines not just among hardcore professional wrestling websites and industry periodicals but in the mainstream culture too, with the “Nature Boy” stopping by everywhere from ESPN to […]

When news broke that Logan Paul was on the lookout to challenge Rey Mysterio for the United States Championship at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia, it spelled very bad news for the legacy leader of the LWO. Sure, Paul hasn’t exactly had the best 2023 of anyone in the WWE Universe, losing every match he […]

There was a time when Big E looked like he was the next big thing in professional wrestling. A do-it-all powerhouse who was as strong as he was charismatic, Big E transitioned from FCW standout to one of the most popular people in the promotion period as a member of the New Day, where he […]

Logan Paul did the unthinkable at WWE Crown Jewel and defeated Rey Mysterio to become the new United States Champion. In only his eighth career match, Paul captured his first championship in WWE after continuing to impress the WWE Universe. Some fans may like Logan Paul, and others may hate his guts. There’s one thing […]

After watching both of his wards, Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa, secure commanding wins at Crown Jewel, Paul Heyman was riding high. Everything went as planned, goofy things happened, and while Jimmy Uso did have to help his uncle secure the win over LA Knight, it was far less egregious than some of his previous […]

After successfully defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins was ready for a fight when Damian Priest ran out to the ring with his Money in the Bank briefcase in order to, presumably, cash in his contract and change his future in the WWE Universe for better or worse. … but then, […]

Death, taxes, and Roman Reigns retaining his title; some things are truly inevitable. Heading into Crown Jewel, LA Knight said and did all the right things. He shot his shot on the mic, did media rounds, and even kissed a few babies for good measure in the hopes of proving he could be the guy […]

When Cody Rhodes challenged Damian Priest to a match at Crown Jewel, it felt beyond random. Sure, Rhodes and Priest have beef, with their most recent Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship match clearly setting things up for a match in Saudi Arabia, but why was the match a singles contest, as opposed to a rematch […]

Since returning to WWE at SummerSlam 2022, IYO SKY has always had the rest of Damage CTRL in her proverbial corner. Granted, it hasn’t always been smooth sailing, as SKY did cost Bayley a win at Money in the Bank, and the former Grand Slam Champion has routinely ignored her friend’s wishes to interfere in […]

Logan Paul has one gimmick in WWE: His titanium-enhanced right hook. In the lead-up to Crown Jewel 2022, all fans heard about was Paul’s one-in-a-million chance to unseat Roman Reigns and how sometimes, all it takes is one lucky punch to make that dream a reality, and, for the most part, fans bought into that […]

Heading into Crown Jewel, John Cena had something more important than a title to defend in the ring when he went face to face with the Enforcer of The Bloodline, Solo Sikoa: Pride. That’s right, after failing to secure a singles win this decade, with his losing streak extending back five years at this point, […]

When WWE announced that not one, not two, not even three, but four women would be vying for Rhea Ripley‘s Women’s World Championship at Crown Jewel, it felt like a perfect opportunity to take the belt off of “Mami,” regardless of whether or not that was the “right” trigger to pull. Now granted, it wasn’t […]

When WWE announced that Seth Rollins was going to wrestle Drew McIntyre for the World Heavyweight Championship in the opening match of Crown Jewel, it became clear rather quickly that the “Visionary” was going to have to fight two battles in Saudi Arabia, one against the “Scottish Warrior,” and another at the end of the […]

After taking a Samoan Spike to the throat on the previous edition of SmackDown, a maneuver designed by Solo Sikoa and Paul Heyman to take away the biggest weapon from their foe’s arsenal, John Cena was booked for a face-to-face segment with the “Street Champ” on the go-home edition of the Blue Brand. Would Cena […]

With Crown Jewel less than a day away, LA Knight was afforded one final chance to address the WWE Universe regarding his ultimate underdog story in the pursuit of Roman Reigns’ WWE Championship. And yet, after interrupting the “Tribal Chief’s” entrance during their contract signing, Reigns decided to return the favor on SmackDown, marching down […]

After a stacked fall full of mini Premium Live Events, WWE is coming back in a huge way on the first weekend of November with Crown Jewel, a very early PLE live from Saudi Arabia that features five title matches and eight total efforts across the stacked card. Fans around the world will be treated […]

When fans compare a wrestler to Shawn Michaels, it’s usually because they’re a dynamic, charismatic cruiserweight who can talk, wrestler, and play some Sweet Chin Music with a well-placed Superkick for good measure, too. But in John Cena’s opinion, that’s only part of what made HBK so darn special. Sitting down for an interview with […]

Drew McIntyre has been a member of the WWE Universe, at least this go around, since 2017, when he parlayed a revolutionary run on the indies into an impressive run through NXT and a return to the main roster at the Royal Rumble 2019. Since making his fateful return in 2019, McIntyre has won hundreds […]

While John Cena goes by a lot of different names as a member of the WWE Universe, from “The Face That Runs the Place,” to the “Doctor of Thuganomics” and even the “Champ,” the moniker utilized most as of late is simply “The GOAT,” aka the greatest of all time. On paper, it makes sense, […]

In 24 hours, LA Knight‘s WWE career will either reach an incredible height the likes of which basically no one has achieved this decade or will join a list of roughly 20 WWE Superstars, many of whom are current or future Hall of Famers, who just couldn’t get past the biggest bad WWE has seen […]

Though it may be hard to remember now, as John Cena is so beyond over at this point as fans soak up his final act in the squared circle, there was a time last decade when “Cena Sucks” chants would overshadow “Let’s Go Cena” declarations routinely, sometimes by a pretty considerable margin. Now granted, in […]

As things presently stand, Vince McMahon and Dana White are on the same team, as they both cash checks from Ari Emanuel’s Endeavor and theoretically should be working together whenever it’s appropriate to get their shared efforts over, but there was a time in the not-to-distant past when the then-WWE CEO wanted nothing more than […]

Hulu has announced a new reality series with WWE superstars Montez Ford and the EST of the WWE, Bianca Belair. Love & WWE In a social media post, Hulu announced their new reality series, Love & WWE: Bianca & Montez. The eight-episode series will premiere on the streaming service on February 2, 2024. The Hulu […]

In an exciting development, reports have surfaced suggesting that football icon Cristiano Ronaldo is in discussions with WWE for a potential appearance in the wrestling world, reported by GOAL. Although the Portuguese superstar won’t be gracing the upcoming Crown Jewel event due to his commitment with Al-Nassr, the talks indicate a possible collaboration in the […]

After taking part in a Collision main event so impressive that some professional wrestling fans complained that it shouldn’t have been given away for free on television, MJF and Kenny Omega stuck around in the ring a little longer so the longest-reigning World Champion in the promotion’s history could address the crowd, thank the “Best […]

When Kevin Owens was shipped off to SmackDown to go it alone as a singles star, fans wondered how it would affect his former tag team partner Sami Zayn. Would the “Underdog from the Underground” have a crisis of confidence without his best friend of 20 years by his side? Or would he find his […]

When AEW announced that MJF and Kenny Omega, two of the promotion’s top in-ring wrestlers and overall stars, were going to go toe-to-toe on Collision for the AEW World Championship, it drew reaction from across the professional wrestling world. To some, the match’s announcement was met with nothing but praise, with fans celebrating the ability […]

What would “Stone Cold” Steve Austin have been in the WWE Universe without Mr. McMahon? Sure, the “Rattlesnake” was part of some of the biggest matches and feuds in professional wrestling history, with his bouts against Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Bret Hart, Triple H, and Mick Foley the stuff of legend, but when the totality […]

After answering Alpha Academy’s open challenge on Monday Night RAW and securing their first-ever win on the main roster, The Creed Brothers, plus their manager/partner Ivy Nile, were riding high. They proved they belonged after more or less running out of things to accomplish in NXT, secured an impressive win over Otis and Chad Gable, […]

On the first Saturday in November, LA Knight‘s life could change forever. Finally, after spending the better part of 20 years working his way up from Championship Wrestling from Hollywood to Impact, NWA, and finally SmackDown – with a few stints in NXT sandwiched throughout – Knight not only has a chance to compete for […]

After finishing up his program with LA Knight and John Cena before the dynamic babyface duo turned their attention to The Bloodline, The Miz needed to find something new to occupy his time within the WWE Universe, at least until the next season of Miz and Mrs. starts to film for Season 4 should the […]

When CM Punk was officially fired with cause from AEW due to his interactions with Jack Perry and Tony Khan at AEW All In, it created a question that has remained firmly at the forefront of professional wrestling fandom: What will the “Best in the World” do next? Some have questioned whether or not Punk […]

On paper, Seth Rollins should be at the top of the professional wrestling world; he’s the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, holds the top spot on the PWI Top-500, and at just 38, is at the height of his athletic abilities in the squared-circle. And yet, pretty much since he won the belt in Riyadh, Saudi […]

As Carmelo Hayes prepares for the biggest match of his current NXT run against Ilya Dragunov at Halloween Havoc, with a win taking him back to the top of the power rankings and a loss effectively icing him out of the NXT Championship picture, at least for now, another question has been fresh at the […]
