It’s the go home show for Survivor Series, which has nothing to do with anything going on with this show. Instead, we’ll be getting more of the NXT B lineup, plus a battle of the midcarders. That doesn’t sound too bad, so maybe they can make it work out well enough again. Let’s get to it.
Malik Blade vs. Edris Enofe This is Enofe’s debut. They go technical to start with Blade snapmaring him down for an early two, sending us into a standoff. Enofe rolls him up for two and that’s good for another standoff as they seem to respect each other. An exchange of rollups give them two each and it’s another standoff. Blade goes more traditional with a headlock on the mat but Enofe gives him a headlock takeover of his own. Back up and Blade hits a dropkick for one and the armbar goes on. Some armdrags have Enofe down again and a missile dropkick sets up…a missed frog s..

Boomer Sooner: Very Good Health Update On Jim Ross

Hopefully it gets better. Wrestlers are very different than a lot of people, but they do share a lot of the same experiences. Some of these can be very great moments, but others are not so fortunate. This can include health issues, as sometimes a wrestler, or a wrestling personality, has to deal with something serious. That was the case again this week, but you might not notice on TV.
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Jim Ross underwent successful back surgery this week. It is not known what the surgery was exactly for, but Ross had mentioned that some skin cancer had been found on his back. Ross is not expected to miss any time from AEW, and is planning to be in Chicago for this week’s edition of Dynamite. He is also scheduled to begin undergoing radiation treatment for his skin cancer starting next week.
Ross has meant a lot in AEW. Check out some of his time with the company:

Huge Match Takes Place After Monday Night Raw Ends

We’re not done yet. There is a lot of WWE content every single week and that has been the case for a long time now. Between Monday Night Raw, SmackDown and NXT, WWE has seven hours of television a week. That can create a few issues, such as a pretty high rate of over saturation, but sometimes WWE has even more to do. That was certainly the case this week.
This week’s Monday Night Raw ended with Big E. successfully defending the WWE Title against Austin Theory before beating up Seth Rollins. According to PWInsider.com, after the show went off the air, a group of villains came out to attack Big E., causing Drew McIntyre to run out with a group of wrestlers for the save. This set up a fourteen man tag with Big E. and McIntyre’s team winning to end the night. Following the match, Randy Orton wished his daughter a happy birthday.
It was a busy night. Check out what some of these people were doing while the show was still on the air:

Fair Thee Well: Longtime Wrestling Couple Announces Split

They seem to be available. There are only a handful of wrestling relationships that tend to work long term. Sometimes you see a pair of wrestlers who can make a romantic relationship last, but the ones that do tend to make for some rather well known pairings. Now it seems that one of those pairings has called it quits after a good number of years together.
Velvet Sky and Bully Ray have announced via Twitter that they have amicably agreed to split up. Both sent out tweets saying the same thing, with only their names being swapped out. They also said that this will be the only public comment either will make on the breakup. The couple had been together since May 2016 and had been been engaged at one point.
.@bullyray5150 & I have decided to part ways amicably. There’s no animosity and we will always be cool, and we wish each other well in life.
This will be the only public comment we make on the matter. ??

REVIEW: WWE Vengeance 2007: Gold, Gold And More Gold

Welcome to KB’s Old School (and New School) Reviews. I’ve been reviewing wrestling shows for over twelve years now and have reviewed over 6,000 shows. Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I’ll be posting a new review here on Wrestlingrumors.net. It could be anything from modern WWE to old school to indies to anything in between. Note that I rate using letters instead of stars and I don’t rate matches under three minutes as really, how good or bad can something that short be?

It’s time for a Night of Champions (that has a ring to it) as this whole show is about title matches. We have nine title matches and that is almost a guarantee for a couple of changes. One of which will be the ECW World Title, which is vacant coming into the show. Let’s get to it.

Hand Them Over: Title Change Takes Place On Monday Night Raw

History has been made! There is something special about seeing a title change. It means that we are in for something new, and that is the kind of feeling that you do not get to see very often in wrestling. They happen more often than they used to as modern wrestling has more championships, and now another one of them has changed hands this week. Actually, two of them.
The WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles changed hands during this week’s edition of Monday Night Raw. Queen Zelina and Carmella defeated Rhea Ripley and Nikki Ash to win the titles when Vega pinned Ripley. This marks the first title reign for either Vega and Carmella and in Vega’s case, her first championship in WWE. Ripley and Ash had held the titles for sixty three days.
That’s a big title change. Check out the new champs how the new champs work together:

VIDEO: Fan Attacks Seth Rollins During Monday Night Raw, Arrested

Uh….security? Some wrestlers are in a tough spot at times as their job is to make the fans hate them. The goal of a villain in wrestling is to get the fans so riled up that they are willing to spend their time and potentially money to see someone beat them up. That is hard to do, but when it works, it works very well. This time though, it might have worked too well.
This week on Monday Night Raw, Seth Rollins attacked Finn Balor, including giving him the Stomp onto the ring steps. Following the attack, Rollins began walking back up to the stage when a fan jumped the barricade and tackled him. The camera immediately cut away and the attack was not mentioned. In a video that has been released on Twitter, Rollins tried to get the fan in a front facelock until referees and security took the fan away. After the show was over, WWE issued a statement to PWInsider.com, saying:
“WWE takes the safety of its performers very seriously. The individual who attacked Seth Rollins has been turned ove..

Monday Night Raw
Date: November 22, 2021
Location: Barclays Center, New York City, New York
Commentators: Jimmy Smith, Corey Graves, Byron Saxton
We’re done with Survivor Series and Raw won the Battle For Brand Supremacy, which I don’t think was actually mentioned on the show. What was mentioned was Mr. McMahon’s egg, which is a prop from a movie that he thinks is worth millions of dollars. Then someone stole it and tonight we need to find out who did it. What a great way to start the holidays so let’s get to it.
Vince McMahon is glaring at Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville over the missing egg.
We recap the case of the stolen egg.
Back in the office, Vince tells Pearce and Deville that they need to find out who did this. Deville has talked to everyone and the surveillence footage isn’t clear. Vince makes them an offer: if someone confesses, they can face Big E. for the WWE Title tonight. Now find it or be fired.
Randy Orton is ready to face Dolph Ziggler, who could get lost on the wa..

The Survivor Series Main Event Caused Some Backstage Panic

That would have been bad. WWE presents a lot of different shows every year but a handful of them are bigger than others. The most important of these shows are pay per views but then there are a group of those that are even bigger than those. One of those took place over the weekend, but something almost went very badly for WWE, which could have caused a lot of problems.
According to PWInsider.com, there were some concerns during the main event of this weekend’s Survivor Series between Roman Reigns and Big E. The worry was that the show would run longer than its allotted time, as the show needed to be done by 11:35pm EST. The main event wound up starting after 11pm but did get off the air in time. Part of the concern was due to the men’s Survivor Series elimination match running long.
They had a lot to get through. Check out the two matches in question and how the show as a whole went down:

Sounds Eggcellent: More On Vince McMahon’s Survivor Series Story

Multiple reasons. There are a lot things going on in WWE at the moment and some of them are more interesting than others. In addition to the regular wrestling and matches being set up, there are also several angles, some of which are more interesting than others. On occasion you get something that is rather bizarre, and that was the case this weekend, as the story is covering two different purposes.
Vince McMahon made his return during the Survivor Series Kickoff Show, where he got out of his limo while holding a large golden egg. Later in the night, McMahon bragged about the egg to Roman Reigns before someone stole the egg from his office. McMahon has ordered Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville to find out who stole the egg. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, the deal is product placement for the new Netflix movie Red Notice, starring the Rock, which features the egg. The storyline is also designed to get McMahon back on television, as he has not been around as much as of late.

How WWE Made Sure To Protect These Wrestlers At Survivor Series

They had a plan. Survivor Series has come and gone and as usual, the show was centered around the ideas of elimination tag matches and the Battle For Brand Supremacy. That can make for a rather stacked show with all kinds of people on the card in large matches. With so many people included, there are going to be some that WWE wants to take care of more than others. Now we know who they are and how they went about it.
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE intended to protect multiple wrestlers at Survivor Series. Some of the names that they wanted to protect included Bobby Lashley and Kevin Owens, both of whom were eliminated via countout. In addition, Drew McIntyre was eliminated via count out and Damian Priest lost via disqualification. The idea was to find a way to keep bigger stars from losing falls but still being eliminated, hence the countouts and disqualification.
It was a busy night. Check out how some of the bigger matches went down:

Here’s How Confusing WWE Has Gotten Backstage (And It’s Not Good)

They might want to work on that. There are a lot of criticisms to modern WWE and one of the most common is that they do not seem to know what they are doing from one day to the next. You will often hear stories of plans being changed at the drop of a hat, and often at the last minute. It turns out that was the case with some recently released wrestlers on their last day in the company.
Last Thursday, WWE released the entire Hit Row faction from the company in a surprise move. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, this was part of a very busy day for the team. On Thursday, Hit Row had been told they would be on SmackDown, Survivor Series and Monday Night Raw. Later in the day, they were told they would not be on any of the shows, before being told they would indeed be on them. Then the three of them were released from their contracts.
The team was worth a longer look. Check out what they could do when given the chance:
