WWE NXT is considered the developmental stage for WWE to hone their skills before they get elevated into the main roster. Given that NXT was supported by Triple H, it’s no surprise that the best in NXT would go on to carve out a successful run in the WWE. For this piece, let’s take a […]

Like most professional wrestling fans, Jim Cornette spent his Memorial Day Weekend watching a pair of wrestling shows in Night of Champions, WWE’s “Premium Live Event” from Saudi Arabia, and Double or Nothing, AEW’s Pay-Per-View from Las Vegas.

After securing a massive win over Lyra Valkyria at NXT Battleground for the then-vacant NXT Women’s Championship, Tiffany Stratton was riding high, ready to bring “Tiffy Time” to the WWE Universe as she prepares for the final phase of her developmental run. I mean, it makes sense, right? No one has her skill, her style, […]

When Mustafa Ali came up short in his match with Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship at Night of Champions, it served as a variable inflection point in the 37-year-old’s professional career. Dubbing the contest a “make or break” for his professional career, Ali was tired of being championship-less in his seventh-straight year as a member […]

Like Hulk Hogan, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, and John Cena before him, in the eyes of most WWE fans, there’s Roman Reigns, and then there’s everyone else. Sure, technically there are now two World Champions atop the WWE Universe, with Seth Rollins securing the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Night of Champions, putting him theoretically […]

When it comes to wrestling Mount Rushmores, you’ll seldom find a fan who doesn’t place “Stone  Cold” Steve Austin in their top four.

The World Heavyweight Championship is meant to be a fighting championship. With Roman Reigns holding […]

While wrestling requires a lot of grappling, tackling, and striking, it also requires some form of acting. As a result, it’s not a surprise that some of the most well-known WWE female wrestlers have gone on to become actresses or models. Given that these wrestlers are confident enough to perform under the bright lights, these […]

After weeks of anticipation, Cody Rhodes stepped into the ring with Brock Lesnar at Night of Champions with a titanium cast on his arm and proceeded to get thrashed by “The Beast Incarnate,” finishing the match unconscious via the Kamura.

When news broke that Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez would have to shed their Tag Team Championships due to an injury to the former, it left more than a few fans of the WWE Universe wondering how Paul “Triple H” Levesque would handle the situation moving forward.

On a weekend absolutely loaded with interesting wrestling matches, Pay-Per-Views, and “Premium Live Events,” wrestling fans have once again begun to debate which promotion was better, WWE or AEW.

WWE wrestlers often go through a rigorous schedule of traveling before taking their acts to the squared circle or putting in the work at the gym.

Throughout history, the WWE has produced several stars that we have come to love. In the past, we’ve seen titular clashes that went down as some of the greatest matches in WWE history. However, that doesn’t mean we got to see all the dream matches we wanted. For a variety of reasons, there are times […]

While the length and certain booking decisions of Roman Reigns’ now 1,000-plus day reign as WWE Universal Champion has been polarizing to fans, few will deny that the Tribal Chief has been the top guy of the company and industry for the last three years. Hulk Hogan certainly wouldn’t. In fact, the legend is extremely […]

After securing a statement win in the penultimate match of Double or Nothing, MJF took his talents to the backstage area of the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to basically shoot on everyone in AEW like he’s become accustomed to in media scrums, all the while Tony Khan watched on in horror wondering where he […]

With Night of Champions officially in the books, WWE has one more “Premium Live Event” for fans to enjoy over their Memorial Day Weekend, NXT Battleground, where the next generation of young, hungry stars will test their mettle, prove their worth, and hopefully come out on top just like Seth Rollins, Asuka, Gunther, Sami Zayn, […]

At Night of Champions, the WWE Universe was treated to the newest chapter of “The CodyVerse” and like any good trilogy – or at least like the original Star Wars trilogy – this chapter ended in defeat, with the hero’s camp wondering if he will ever be able to overcome the big, bad boss after […]

To paraphrase Corey Graves on the Night of Champions commentary team, Rhea Ripley doesn’t get paid by the minute.

At Night of Champions, WWE decided to run back one of the better matches from WrestleMania 39 weekend and have Bianca Belair defend her RAW Women’s Championship once more against “The Empress of Tomorrow,” Asuka.

Is there a world where Mustafa Ali could defeat Gunther at Night of Champions? Sure; WWE has taken big swings with booking in the past, and while Ali wouldn’t be quite as popular as, say, Kofi Kingston or Big E, giving him a win in front of a Jeddah Superdome crowd that was clearly on […]

After weeks of back-and-forth verbal sparring, with Trish Status talking a whole lot of trash before being “dog walked” in a scathing promo on the go-home edition of RAW, Becky Lynch decided to let her first do the talking in the opening moments of her Night of Champions match, punching the WWE Hall of Famer […]

When WWE announced that there was going to be three main events at Night of Champions, it should have been a red flag.

Ironically, Reigns’ achievement is all […]

For this piece, let’s take a look […]
