 This is of course completely ludicrous as neither is an actual murdering gangster, but instead a wrestler in Orlando, Florida for WWE's developmental brand  While the setting and characters pale in comparison to the blood-soaked streets of New York in a Martin Scorsese film, we'll let the boys continue to play make-believe a bit more as[...]

You might not know it from all the uproar it caused, but Sasha Banks and Naomi walking out of WWE wasn't the only thing to happen on WWE Raw last night (though it was the most interesting by far) Here's five (other) takeaways from last night's WWE Raw.

Over the next few days, you are going to hear a lot of bad takes about how Sasha Banks and Naomi failed the fans and failed in their duties by choosing to walk out rather than participate in the booking of a WWE Raw main event they disagreed with These takes will come from fans[...]

WWE is a company with a market cap of 4.31 billion dollars, able to employ highly paid artists to produce cutting edge graphics And yet, this is the image the company created to promote tonight's episode of WWE Raw.

WWE had fans very interested when they booked the Raw Tag Team Champions RK-Bro to face the SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos in a winner takes all match to unify the titles at WrestleMania Backlash  That match never came to be, as Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre were inserted into the match to make it into a six-man battle last weekend[...]

The Undertaker will also not sign any event tickets from WWE or WWF (which presumably means he will sign your AEW tickets if you want) The Undertaker will also not personalize his autographs in any way So don't even ask! The Undertaker won't sign your stupid trading cards, mark. How much will you pay for the privilege[...]

At last weekend's WrestleMania Backlash event, The Bloodline continued their dominance over all of WWE when they defeated the team of Drew McIntyre and the Raw Tag Team Champions Randy Orton and Riddle in a big six-man tag team match  Now with that behind them, what will Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos set their eyes on[...]

The official[...]

Flair is currently out of action with a kayfabe injury — indefinitely, according to today's episode of WWE's The Bump podcast — but what she's really doing, according to dirt sheet rumors, is taking time off to get married in Mexico to Andrade, which The Chadster finds to be just so disrespectful to WWE and[...]

WWE has promised that this week's episode of NXT 2.0 on the USA Network will be all about the ladies!  Clearly feeling safe to make such proclamations now that Ric Flair is no longer allowed in the building, the women of NXT will have the spotlight on this week's show and aside from several women's matches, we'll also[...]

 Was Breakker able to escape over the past week, or is he tied up in Gacy's attic somewhere next to the boxes of Harland's clothes and personal items?  These questions must be answered and hopefully, they will be on tonight's episode. Natalya will face her young nemesis Cora Jade on NXT 2.0 tonight, courtesy of WWE. Another issue[...]

Dave Meltzer later reported that Reigns recently signed a new deal that allows him to work fewer house shows, which is the probable explanation for the speech, but that didn't stop Reigns from using the rumors he'd created to get some more heat after his victory at WrestleMania backlash alongside The Usos against Drew McIntyre[...]

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?[...]

Meanwhile, Roman Reigns and The Usos won their match against Drew McIntyre and RKBro, though a collision between Reigns and McIntyre in singles competition seems imminent. When Cody Rhodes cut his first promo since returning to WWE on the Raw after WrestleMania, he made his goal clear: to win the WWE Championship his father never could[...]

 Gacy has taken things to personal levels by kidnapping Breakker's father, WWE Hall of Famer Rick Steiner, and has attempted to play games with the Champ's mind with the use of Druids and other supernatural wackiness  Will Breakker destroy Gacy so he can move past him, or will this all continue to resemble the awfulness that[...]

 Will this event be worth the price (free) or will it feel like a rip-off like the past several weeks of NXT 2.0?  Let's take a look. Bron Breakker will defend the NXT title against Joe Gacy tonight at NXT Spring Breakin', courtesy of WWE. The main event tonight will see NXT Champion Bron Breakker put his title on the line[...]

WWE Raw continued to coast on the fumes of WrestleMania this week for the go-home show for this weekend's WrestleMania Backlash PLE The general consensus, which we agree with, is that Raw has been slightly less bad lately, and this week's episode continued to be slightly less bad compared to the WWE of roughly six[...]
