WWE were firing on all cylinders following a triumphant edition of SummerSlam in August 2002.

Cody Rhodes returned to WWE with an exceptional amount of fanfare. The pyro, the stage, the match itself, everything pointed towards Rhodes being the next big thing to re-emerge into the main roster.

LA Knight has somehow, someway become an overnight sensation in the pro wrestling industry. His build to Money in the Bank in London was astronomical, with resounding ‘Yeahs’ taking the O2 Arena by storm and easily making him one of the most over wrestlers on the planet today. LA was unsuccessful in capturing the Money in the Bank contract and has since set his sights on claiming championship glory without a certified contract. Despite the loss, fans are still rallying […]

WWE’s first post-WrestleMania event is hitting up the island of Puerto Rico this Saturday night, bringing a huge line-up featuring the biggest wrestling stars of the current era and some celebrity flair. This year’s Backlash (thankfully no longer called WrestleMania: Backlash) currently does not feature a major men’s championship match, however with the looming brand re-extension waiting to come into effect, this should certainly shape the landscape for the new rosters of both RAW and SmackDown Live going forward. With […]

The 2023 WWE Draft continued on last night’s edition of Monday Night RAW, capping off what has been a pretty prolific draft compared to recent years attempts.

The biggest takeaways from last night’s main-show picks are that both brands will continue to have their own Women’s and mid-card champions, with Rhea Ripley being the first pick for RAW and Austin Theory […]

Triple H announced as part of this past week’s SmackDown Live that the iconic WWE Draft will be making its return sometime in the near future. It was suggested that this Draft will be like no other and will truly shake things up in the WWE’s landscape, but when you actually stop and think about it, is this really necessary?

At WrestleMania 39, wrestling fans were left with a bitter taste in their mouths when Roman Reigns scored the dirty victory over Cody Rhodes in the final main-event of the weekend.

There has been a plethora of different criticisms thrown WWE’s way following this result, with many […]
