Neither Cutler or his partner Wesley Blake had been seen on WWE programming in recent weeks. The duo had recently aligned themselves with Baron Corbin, but for the last few SmackDown episodes, the Lone Wolf has once again been on his own. It’s unclear at this time what led to Cutler’s release from the company, but WWE did wish him all the best in his future endeavors. Steve Cutler had just made his main roster debut in 2020 Thomas Maclin, known in WWE as Steve Cutler, signed with the company in 2014 and was assigned to NXT....
In case you didn’t know… Sami Zayn was last seen in an underwhelming feud with Bobby Lashley before he suffered two torn rotator cuffs and had to be out of action as he required surgery. Sami Zayn is a former NXT Champion but has been mainly an enhancement talent on the main roster and has failed to win a single championship in his time spent on the main roster. Although he was majorly teaming with Kevin Owens, the two were split up for singles competition before Zayn, unfortunately, suffered this injury....

In case you didn’t know… After reportedly suffering an anxiety attack before a scheduled appearance on Raw in January 2019, Lars Sullivan made his long-awaited debut on WWE’s main roster the night after WrestleMania 35....
There is a strong possibility that the match will feature an interference by Triple H. Triple H is the reason behind Kevin Owens holding the title in the first place.

Big Cass, Kevin Owens, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins put up a great show with Stephanie McMahon and Mick Foley watching from ringside....

This essentially will make stars not want to take time off....
The episode of RAW that followed Hell in a Cell 2020 wasn’t the best show, and it wasn’t the worst show either. It just reminded us that intra-brand rivalries would be put on the back-burner for the time being, as we focus on inter-brand feuds. But now that the stage is set for Survivor Series, WWE SmackDown could certainly spice things up with a whole bunch of surprises, and here are 5 of them....
Goldberg brought RAW to a close, and SmackDown Live will have to pull out a few rabbits out of their hat to ensure that their show is a memorable one. Quite a few segments have already been announced, though I imagine that there’s a lot that they’re hiding from us. I’m guessing that Roman Reigns’ attacker storyline is going to be the big payoff on the show. We’ll need to know who it is on the blue brand so that the SummerSlam match can potentially be confirmed....
Overcoming that obstacle was the amazing talent of the WWE roster. The top-class women’s division was on full display with the Kickoff match, SmackDown Women’s Championship Match, and Women’s Royal Rumble match. The top champions Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre were given two huge encounters that were vastly different. The quality of all these matches once again solidified why this may be one of the best rosters top-to-bottom that this company has ever offered....
A year after Bianca Belair put together an eye-opening performance at Royal Rumble, “The EST of WWE” outdid herself by outlasting 29 other women to win the 2021 Women’s Rumble on Sunday night. On the men’s side, Edge became the second WWE Superstar to win after entering at No. 1 when he tossed Randy Orton over the top rope for his second Royal Rumble victory.

Well, rather than a possibility, the match now seems like a probability, with WrestleTalk TV reporting that WWE is currently planning for AJ Styles vs Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 35. In case you didn’t know… After it was reported last month, via the Barn Burner Fired Up podcast, WWE is planning on having Shawn Michaels return for at least five matches upon his return to the ring. Despite the controversy surrounding WWE Crown Jewel, Shawn Michaels is set to make his in-ring return at the event when he teams with Triple H to take on The Undertaker and Kane, but it won’t be “one more match” for the WWE legend....
In case you didn’t know… Brock Lesnar was supposed to have left the WWE after losing to Reigns at SummerSlam, with many believing the WWE Superstar was leaving the company to pursue another stint in UFC. Lesnar had worked a program with Daniel Cormier, setting up a huge fight between the two men. Lesnar also re-entered the USADA drug testing pool! The circumstances surrounding Lesnar losing the Universal Title were interesting though, as Lesnar was distracted by Braun Strowman at ringside which allowed Reigns to hit a spear and pin him....
In case you didn’t know… Lesnar is a former one-time Universal Champion. He defeated Goldberg at WrestleMania 33 to capture the gold. He then defended his title against several superstars and at WrestleMania 34, he successfully retained his title against The Big Dog. Since then, Roman and Brock faced each other a few times, and finally at SummerSlam, Reigns defeated Lesnar for the Universal Championship. Soon after that, he started feuding with the Money in the Bank holder Braun Strowman and as a result, we saw a Hell in a Cell match between these two wrestlers....
According to this rumour, Ambrose will team up with Seth Rollins yet again. And the duo will take on the heel unit of Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre.

Unfortunately, Ambrose suffered an injury and the Shield reunion had to be stalled prematurely for the time being....
In case you didn’t know… Royal Rumble is one of the “big four” events in the WWE apart from Wrestlemania, Survivor Series, and Summerslam. The highlight of the show sees a 30-man/woman match whereby the winner of the over the top rope battle gets a shot at the World Championship of his choice at Wrestlemania. Last year, the Men’s Royal Rumble was won by Shinsuke Nakamura whereas Asuka becomes the winner of the first ever Women’s Royal Rumble; even though neither of them was able to capture gold at Wrestlemania 34....
