In case you didn’t know… Rumours spread last month that Dean Ambrose was set to leave WWE after WrestleMania. He had reportedly informed the officials and management that he was not going to renew his contract. WWE issued a statement within hours and confirmed that the Lunatic Fringe was indeed leaving the company. However, instead of putting the situation to bed, the whole new angle that it is all a ‘work’ emerged....
The Royal Rumble, scheduled to take place on the 29th of January at San Antonio’s Alamodome, will officially kickstart the Road to WrestleMania. WWE fans all around the world have started predicting their winner for the Rumble and the matches scheduled for WrestleMania. However, according to F4WOnline’s Dave Meltzer, the WWE might’ve already made up its mind about this year’s WrestleMania card. According to Meltzer, the booking for RAW at this year’s Mania is as follows:...
While the rumour mill has been abuzz with speculation regarding John Cena’s appearance at The Grandest Stage of Them All, latest reports from WON suggest some great news. In case you didn’t know… John Cena, who was once the face of WWE, now works a much lighter schedule and is essentially a part-timer. Cena made his last appearance for WWE on the first edition of SmackDown in 2019 and hasn’t been seen since....
However, since Goldberg signed a contract extension, WWE decided to go another direction, furthering the Lesnar-Goldberg feud instead. The report also stated that Vince McMahon is not sold on the idea of Goldberg vs. The Undertaker. And he also does not want to revisit Undertaker vs. Lesnar, because he feels that has come to its rightful conclusion last year at Hell In A Cell. Also, there was a report by Daily Wrestling News stating that Vince McMahon has asked the creative team to brainstorm for other possible ideas for The Undertaker at Wrestlemania 33 if John Cena does not perform....
There was also a Triple Threat WWE Championship match and a handicap match with Roman Reigns that was advertised. In case you didn’t know… Seth Rollins has been feuding with Baron Corbin for the past few weeks. Corbin received his first major opportunity for the Universal Championship at WWE Super ShowDown, but Seth Rollins put him away in the opening match in a relatively short match. Corbin almost cost Rollins his title post-match as he hit the End of Days before MITB holder Brock Lesnar came out....
The Wrestling Observer Live revealed that the decision to turn Elias back to a heel was made the day of the Royal Rumble and not last night on Raw, even though things seemed a lot more clear on Monday night. RingsideNews.com carried the story. In case you didn’t know… Elias seemingly turned face on the same night that Roman Reigns left the WWE due to illness. The Drifter was one of the superstars targeted by Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley....
On Wednesday, a link from the TNA website led to a post on Rolling Stone’s site, which described a promo video for a wrestler appearing on this week’s TNA programming. The simple video includes large print reading, “He’s doing things his way,” and the “Hallelujah Chorus” – a song Sandow once used as entrance music – playing in the background. As if that weren’t enough to tip their hand, a related story attached to the page has a picture of the former WWE tag team champion....
The injury occurred after Joe executed his finisher, Muscle Buster on him. Tyson confirmed a few weeks later that, it would take him more than a year to recover from the surgery. He also mentioned that, after suffering such neck injury, only 5% people have survived in the past. Kidd had 16 staples, 4 screws and a rod inserted in his neck. Now, after a year has passed, his physical condition hasn’t improved much....
To say the least, most of the MVPs this year so far aren’t the faces that you would ordinarily expect. Aside from the two obvious ones, you have to look deeper to find the most consistently entertaining performers in WWE this year. We’ll take a look at the eight now. Unfortunately, none of them are women. The women’s division has seen the steepest decline in quality since last year. We can only hope that things will pick up in quality among the women as we head into the second half of 2019....
Ahead of last night’s show, there were reports that Vince McMahon had forced the show to be re-written because he wasn’t happy with the original script, something that was made evident when The New Day’s match was changed three times throughout the day. Whether or not the fact that there were many last-minute changes is why the show felt so “thrown together” is questionable, but there were certainly a number of mistakes that WWE could have rectified throughout the episode....
But WWE Champion AJ Styles will have his hands full when he faces not one but both the Singh brothers in a handicap match. And what new challenge will present itself to US Champion Baron Corbin, still revelling in his victory against the Miz at Survivor Series? The Usos, meanwhile, get to put their feet up for a bit as the New Day and the team of Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable battle it out amongst themselves to prove that they’re worthy challengers for the twins’ Tag Team gold....
Reigns was almost buried under lighting equipment and almost struck by a car a few weeks ago, and “The Big Dog” has been on the warpath looking for the culprit. After Buddy Murphy said - under duress - that he saw Rowan at the scene, Reigns has been looking for him. Daniel Bryan and Rowan went to Murphy after Buddy’s long and hard fought fight with Roman last week to get him to renounce his statement and say he lied....
Seriously, who still wants to see Jericho around for stuff like this? Roman Reigns’ recent suspension throws a wrench in things, but that doesn’t mean we need to see more Ambrose vs. Jericho action. Sami Zayn/Apollo Crews def. Sheamus/Kevin Owens Zayn gets the win with a Helluva Kick on Sheamus. Afterward, Owens attacks Sami backstage. This is prototypical Team Heel vs. Team Face tag action on Smackdown. Nice that the good guys won, but hopefully the booking will be more intentional once Smackdown is live in a few weeks with its own roster....
Let’s go over the highlights and all the action from the show. Becky Lynch and Alexa Bliss contract signing The two premier women on SmackDown are out first to consummate their match at TLC, and Alexa dismisses Renee Young from the ring, telling her that she will call on her if she needs ‘bad fashion advice’.

This isn’t the first time an NXT member has been tossed—Nash Carter saw himself erased from the WWE 2K22 DLC once his allegations of spousal battery came out when his wife, fellow Wrestler Kimber Lee posted a photo of her split lip that he’d caused—but a shakeup like this is still pretty seismic in the sporting world. Starting with the recent ousting of former Chairman of the board and CEO Vince McMahon (with rumors coming that it was due to him misappropriating money for hush money to brush a slew of sexual harassment claims under the rug), it’s been a wild time for the wrestling franchise that has long dominated the scene....
