The biggest rivalry in WWE at the moment is between two factions on Friday nights: The Bloodline and The Brawling Brutes  Now, with The Bloodline holding most of the titles in WWE right now, you would think this one is totally lopsided  But that's not quite the case, as the Brutes have gotten plenty of shots in[...]

While it's clear that Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns has finally fulfilled his potential and has become the unquestionable face of WWE, it's also pretty clear to fans that he isn't quite the breakout pop culture star that WWE was hoping for at least not yet  To find the last one of those, we need[...]

WWE Raw delivered a somewhat lackluster, if inoffensive, episode of WWE Raw last night Little of consequence happened on the show, which centered mostly around a poker tournament This is the time of year when WWE is mostly coasting, as plans are probably mostly set for WrestleMania next year, but WWE can't really move any[...]

Sad news this Monday morning as we are learning that wrestling legend and WWE Hall of Famer Barry Windham suffered a heart attack over the weekend  The incident occurred in an Atlanta airport this past Friday, leading to Windham being rushed to a nearby hospital where the 62-year-old underwent emergency surgery  He is now recovering in[...]

Former WWE head honcho Vince McMahon is, if nothing else, a curious fellow  There were times he seemed to have his finger on the pulse of pop culture and created a great product, but then there are the stories that make it sound as if he had just landed on Earth in a spaceship a week[...]

Who would have guessed that in December of 2022, William Regal would be the most sought-after name in wrestling?  Strange or not, that appears to be the case right now as after the events of this past weekend, and indeed, after what went down last night on AEW Dynamite, word is running rampant that the 20-year-plus[...]

If there's one person in WWE who is uniquely qualified to introduce a brand new match type, it's WWE Hall of Famer "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels  The icon himself performed in the televised debuts for a number of matches in WWE history, including the Ladder Match, the Elimination Chamber, and the Hell In A Cell[...]

In a storyline conclusion that, in kayfabe, holds up to zero scrutiny, unsigned wrestler Dexter Lumis, who was paid by the Miz to engage in staged kidnapping and torture, and who has a history of kidnapping and assaulting other wrestlers, fought and defeated Miz to win a WWE contract on WWE Raw last night. Dexter Lumis[...]

WWE added one more match to Survivor Series during last night's episode of WWE Raw, bringing the full card for Saturday's PLE up to five matches, including two War Games bouts The addition of a triple threat for the United States Championship could plausibly fill the entire card, since the WarGames matches can each take[...]
