WWE has found the solution to America's looming recession woes: all we need to do is hold a WrestleMania every month in every city in the country, and the problem will be solved According to a press release from WWE, WrestleMania this year generated over $200 million for the Dallas/Arlington region in Texas, which the[...]

WWE held their first post-WrestleMania Premium Live Event of the year last night with the on-the-nose titled WrestleMania Backlash and all in all, it wasn't a bad show  There were some solid matches, some interesting developments, and (despite a number of WrestleMania rematches) it didn't feel like a complete retread  So where do we go from here?[...]

We have all been waiting for the usual post-WrestleMania roster cleansing that usually happens every April and it looks like WWE waited until the very end of the month to do so  We are learning that WWE has released ten different NXT brand superstars today, including Dexter Lumis (Samuel Shaw), Harland (Parker Boudreaux), Malcolm Bivens, Dakota Kai, Persia Pirotta (Stephanie[...]

The focus of The Bloodline over the past couple of post-WrestleMania weeks has been for the SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos to follow their cousin Roman Reigns' example and unify the Raw and SmackDown Tag titles  The problem with that is Randy Orton and Riddle aren't too keen on just handing over their Raw Tag titles[...]

Last week's post-WrestleMania episode of SmackDown on FOX saw some new faces from NXT 2.0 join the roster, while we were also reintroduced to some soon-to-be returning stars such as Lacey Evans  As for the everyday Friday night stars though, it was kind of the same old, same old  Now maybe it was just the come-down from WrestleMania and[...]

In this case, it was the possibility that The Rock and Roman Reigns could face off against each other next year at the WWE's WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles We'll explain… Image: WWE/Screencap So in the most recent episode, we see a moment where young Dwayne (Uli Latukefu) is gathered with his family to check out the[...]

 While fans should brace themselves for a name/look change for Ciampa, because that just seems to be par for the course with NXT call-ups, it's also been reported that the current plan for WWE creative is for Ciampa to join Edge and Damian Priest in their newly-formed faction that was born in Edge's match with AJ Styles at WrestleMania. Also included[...]

Let the WrestleMania fallout on SmackDown begin!  We have a lot of questions after this past weekend's mega event in Dallas and those weren't quite answered on Monday's Raw when newly crowned Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns didn't offer any of his plans going forward and instead punted the question to Friday's SmackDown[...]

WWE and NXT have announced that MSK has relinquished the NXT Tag Team titles, with new champs set to be crowned this Tuesday.

As we saw at this past Sunday's WrestleMania, Universal Champion Roman Reigns defeated WWE Champion Brock Lesnar in the main event to gain both titles and become WWE's unified Champion  On Monday's Raw, Reigns had the WWE Universe waiting to hear his plans going forward, but instead ducked the issue and said we would have to wait for SmackDown[...]

 The crowd is again laying into this and chanting "Boring!"  I guess the usually raucous WrestleMania crowd has migrated from Dallas, Texas to Orlando, Florida in just 24 hours, with enough energy to dump on a show  That's an impressive turnaround! We now go to a backstage interview with the new NXT Tag Team Champions MSK, who is[...]

This past Saturday in Dallas, the NXT brand put on a solid afternoon of wrestling action with NXT Stand & Deliver as a lead-in to night one of WrestleMania  Every title in the brand was on the line and we do indeed have some new champions going into tonight's episode of NXT 2.0 on the USA Network[...]

WWE announced a new record for WrestleMania attendance and revenue following the "most stupendous two-night WrestleMania in history." According to a press release, "WWE's annual pop-culture extravaganza saw 156,352 fans from all 50 states and 53 countries converge on AT&T Stadium in Dallas over the course of two exciting nights, surpassing the previous gate and[...]

Another WrestleMania is in the record books, and if there's one thing we can definitively say about "the most stupendous two-night WrestleMania in history," it's this: it wasn't as bad as we expected Sure, it was a low bar WWE as a company in general has been at an all-time creative low point while at[...]

WWE has billed this year's WrestleMania as the most stupendous two-night WrestleMania in history, but without the help of the most popular wrestler in the history of the business returning for one more unbelievable match, the first night of the show might have gone down as a longer and only slightly more eventful episode of[...]

Greetings, comrades! It is I, your El Presidente, and it is your honor for me to host your Bleeding Cool WrestleMania Roundtable for Night 2 of the most stupid… sorry, stupendous two-night WrestleMania in history WrestleMania takes place in Texas this year at AT&T Stadium on Saturday, April 2nd and Sunday, April 3rd[...]

If you're a professional wrestling fan who's in the know then you had a pretty good idea who Seth Rollins' Vince McMahon-selected "mystery opponent" was going to be during the first night of WrestleMania 38 on Peacock Yup, former AEW star & executive vice president Cody Rhodes made his official debut tonight (and to no[...]

WrestleMania is one of those terms ubiquitous with WWE and pro wrestling itself  Non-fans know of it and they know what it means: the biggest wrestling show of the year  While it's impossible to erase it from our consciousness, the fact is that in recent years and especially this year, WrestleMania has kind of lost its[...]

It's the biggest show of the year for NXT on WrestleMania weekend, NXT Stand & Deliver  All of the titles in NXT will be on the line this afternoon in Dallas as the WWE stars of tomorrow get the matinee spotlight today  Enough out of me, let's get to the action! The official logo for NXT Stand &[...]

 It's a matinee showcase for the brand ahead of night one of WrestleMania and the brand has big expectations to meet, not only as a WrestleMania appetizer but also seeing as, in the previous era of the brand, they often received way better reviews than the big WWE show  Will the NXT 2.0 era superstars meet the challenge?[...]

Greetings, comrades! It is I, your El Presidente, and it is your honor for me to host your Bleeding Cool WrestleMania Roundtable for Night 1 of the most stupid… sorry, stupendous two-night WrestleMania in history WrestleMania takes place in Texas this year at AT&T Stadium on Saturday, April 2nd and Sunday, April 3rd[...]

Friday night kicked off the biggest weekend of the year for WWE, as the two-night extravaganza that is WrestleMania gets rolling in Dallas  But two nights and a possible ten hours of air time just isn't enough apparently with last night's episode of SmackDown on Fox serving as a sort of pre-show for the "Showcase[...]

WWE is about to produce one of the biggest shows of the year as WrestleMania 38 will take place in Dallas But… who is this show for? That's not some arbitrary question we're throwing out there for you to answer, we're actually going to answer that ourselves But considering the fact that we've watched every[...]

 The use of these statues is anyone's guess, as there is no physical WWE Hall of Fame or museum to display them properly, but the gesture is a nice one and now the company has bestowed it on arguably their greatest character of all time, The Undertaker, ahead of his Hall of Fame induction tonight. The[...]

Remember when WrestleMania was a single three-hour-long show on one night?  That feels like a distant memory now as the annual event has ballooned into a two-night event with each night's goings-on pushing five hours if we're lucky  But that's not enough apparently, as this year Mania has spilled into a third night, with tonight's SmackDown on Fox[...]

 Their event in front of the Dallas crowd will kick off the in-ring action for the first day of WrestleMania and showcase battles for all of the brand's titles  The biggest battle will of course be for the NXT Championship, where former Champion Bron Breakker will look to regain the belt from the man who took it, Raw[...]

NXT Stand & Deliver will kick off the in-ring action of WrestleMania weekend in Dallas, Texas this coming Saturday afternoon  But that's still four days from now and tonight on the final NXT 2.0 on the USA Network before the big show this weekend, there's still plenty of work to do and we'll take a look at[...]

It's in the fine print. — Hurricane Helms (@ShaneHelmsCom) March 28, 2022 Chris Rock vs Will Smith should main event #WrestleMania #Oscars — WWE Creative Humor (@WWECreative_ish) March 28, 2022 And maybe the best reaction of all came from the legendary Jerry "The King" Lawler, who was a part of maybe one of the most infamous slaps in TV history. Me and Andy[...]

Seth Rollins finally got his WrestleMania match, and all signs point to it being Cody Rhodes And now, the match is all but official You know what that means, right?! ADRENALINE! IN MY SOUL! FINALLY IT'S CODE RH– WAIT! Unfortunately, it looks like Cody won't actually be showing up to promote the match because Vince McMahon has booked Seth[...]
