You don’t want to go too far. Things are not exactly normal in the world right now and that could be the case for a very long time to come. The spread of the Coronavirus has changed the way everything works and that does not seem ready to change for a long time to come. Part of the problem for the wrestling industry is having a limit on the amount of people who can be in one place at the same time. WWE did not seem too interested in such an issue earlier this week.
The biggest issue currently facing the wrestling industry is a Center For Disease Control recommendation that ten people should not be in the same place at the same time. That can make it rather difficult to produce a wrestling show, but WWE has pushed forward no matter what. However, it turns out that they might not have been playing by the rules earlier this week.
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE had over ten people in the WWE Performance Center arena during last week’s SmackDown. The show’s main event was a ta..

If you enjoy lopsided victories, this video is for you. WWE has posted a new video to its YouTube channel in which they show the full match between John Cena and Brock Lesnar from their WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match at Summerslam in 2014.
You can see the match in its entirety below:

From WWE.com:
At a certain point during John Cena’s WWE World Heavyweight Championship defense against Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam 2014, members of the WWE Universe had to ask themselves, “When does a match stop being a match and start being a televised assault?”
We learned the answers to those questions some 20 minutes into the most one-sided beating of Cena’s WWE career. Two F-5’s, countless punches thrown with bad intentions, and 16 — yes, 16 — German suplexes were rained down upon The Champ by the most dominant force WWE has ever seen before The Beast Incarnate accomplished what he returned to WWE to accomplish: Become the WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
At first, the crowd almost enjoye..

A match 15 years in the making. WWE has posted a new video to its YouTube channel in which they show the full match between Triple H and Sting from WrestleMania 31. This was the final battle between WWE and WCW since the company closed its doors in 2001.
You can see the match in its entirety below:

From WWE.com:
Following the jaw-dropping entrances of both icons, the WWE Universe was finally ready to witness the showdown they thought would never happen. Two of the most prominent stars of their respective organizations during the Monday Night War were finally colliding at WrestleMania. As the opening bell sounded, Triple H and Sting sized each other up to the WWE Universe’s ecstatic chants of “this is awesome.” Taking a moment to let the adrenaline pulse through their veins, they finally locked up and Sting gained the early advantage.
With the Scorpion Death Lock applied and certain doom looming for The WWE COO, D-Generation X’s music hit, and Billy Gunn, Road Dogg and X-Pac rushed..

That’s one way to go. We are coming up on WrestleMania 36 and for the first time ever, the show will have taken place before we actually see it. That has never been done before and it is going to change everything that is going on with the show. It also means that some changes have made at the last minute, with one wrestler having to be replaced due to injury. Now we might know the replacement.
This year’s WrestleMania is one of the most unique in history as the show has felt like it is being thrown together with whomever is available to be on the show. With so many being off the show due to illness or the threat of illness, there are a lot of spots available, but another one was opened up due to a regular injury. It happened to be someone in a title match, and now that spot has been filled.
According to F4WOnline.com, NXT star Austin Theory replaced United States Champion Andrade in the Raw Tag Team Title match at WrestleMania 36. Andrade and Angel Garza were scheduled to challenge ..

It’s the final night in Las Vegas before we head over towards Atlanta for what is now the last set of TV tapings available. We’re on the way towards Rebellion and that likely means a lot more “show is canceled” graphics. It’s not like they have much of a better choice so it’s as good as they can do here. Let’s get to it.
The opening recap looks at Sami Callihan being revealed as the Realityislost hacker and attacking Ken Shamrock, who had just been announced as the newest Hall of Fame inductee.
Opening sequence.
Willie Mack vs. Chris Bey vs. Acey Romero vs. Daga vs. Rohit Raju vs. Jake Crist vs. Cousin Jake vs. Trey One fall to a finish and the winner is the #1 contender to the X-Division Title. It’s a brawl to start and soon it’s Romero running over Bey and Crist on his own. A backsplash crushes Bey but a double missile dropkick puts Romero on the floor. That ..

That’s a logical move. The wrestling world, as part of the world as a whole, is in a weird situation right now as every day brings some kind of change to the entire situation brought on by the Coronavirus. The disease has spread around the world at an alarming rate and at the moment, it isn’t clear when things are going to get better. WWE has taken notice and as a result, a WrestleMania match has been changed accordingly.
As we head towards WrestleMania 36, most of the card is already set. Several of the matches are going to be built around a major grudge, including AJ Styles vs. the Undertaker. This week on Monday Night Raw, Styles announced that their match would be a Boneyard match, which brought up the obvious question: what the heck is a Boneyard match? Now we have a better idea.
Styles appeared on his Mixer stream over the weekend and discussed the Boneyard match. According to Styles, WWE originally wanted to call the match a Graveyard match or Cemetery match but the names were..

That’s some good publicity. The sports world is in a very strange place at the moment as almost all sports around the world have been suspended for the moment. This has left sports networks a lot of time to fill in on their airwaves and a lot of that can be filled in by older material. There are several options to pick from, and one of them is something that has rarely been touched before.
Wrestling has a long history on television, as it has long since been seen as an easy source of programming which can be put on the air at a moment’s notice. Most wrestling is self sustained so airing the show is little more than playing a tape that the wrestling company sends to the network. With so little footage available, sports networks are looking towards wrestling to fill in some time, which will be the case over the next week.
WWE programming will be airing on multiple major sports networks over the next eight days. First, WrestleManias 32 and 35 both airing on ESPN on Sunday March 29 and S..

That would be an interesting way to go Firefly. We are coming up on a rather interesting WrestleMania as there has never been one like it before and likely never will be again. With so many of the normal things taken off the table this year, there are going to be a lot of original things that we have not seen before. One of those is going to be in one of the bigger matches, and now we know what that might be.
There are a lot of big matches set for WrestleMania and one of the most intriguing is Bray Wyatt vs. John Cena. Wyatt blames the rise of the Fiend on his loss to Cena at WrestleMania 30 and Cena is ready to fight for the company’s future. The match is going to be a Firefly Fun House match, though Wyatt did not specify the rules. Now though, we might have an idea of what the match will be.
According to Wrestlinginc.com, the match will likely take place on the Firefly Fun House set. Wyatt vs. Cena was one of the matches which had been rumored to be taking place outside of the Perf..

It’s how you start the show. WrestleMania has one of the deepest histories of any wrestling show of all time. The event began all the way back in 1985 and even today, when the show is going to be nothing compared to its usual self, WWE is likely going to have something out there to make the event feel special. A lot of that comes down to video and that is where WWE is going today.
Whether they meant to or not, WWE turned their opening video packages into great history lessons about their upcoming shows. The videos do a great job of recapping stories and showing you why you are here. That wasn’t always the case though as some of the earlier videos were more about reminding you that you were watching WWE. A look back could be interesting and WWE has you covered.
Let’s get it started. Check out WWE’s latest countdown:

WWE has released a countdown of every WrestleMania intro of all time in order from the first event through the most recent, with WrestleMania 35. The videos also include..

It’s a packed one. Monday Night Raw is not your usual professional wrestling show. There is no other show that runs three hours a week every single week for the entire year. That is a hard thing to accomplish and yet WWE managed to do it fifty two weeks a year. With so much going on, there are only going to be so many shows that stand out. We are coming up on one of those this week.
Like any other wrestling company, WWE is built around star power. The bigger the name that appears on the show, the bigger of a deal that they really are. That is the case with Monday Night Raw every single week, as stronger names are going to draw a bigger audience. With WrestleMania 36 just around the corner, WWE needs a strong go home show and that is what we seem ready to get.
WWE.com’s preview for this week’s Monday Night Raw lists Brock Lesnar, the Undertaker, Edge and Becky Lynch for the show. All four of these names will be wrestling at WrestleMania, though it is not clear which night any of their..

The streak was over. WWE recently posted a new video to its YouTube channel in which they posted the full match between Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker from Wrestlemania 30. It was the night that The Beast ended the 21-0 undefeated streak of The Undertaker in Wrestlemania matches.
You can see the match in its entirety below:

From WWE.com:
Records are made to be broken.
Heroes fall. Legends fade. History is rewritten.
We’ve learned to accept these truths about many things in this world, but not The Undertaker’s Streak. It was WWE’s one constant — a decades-long unbeaten WrestleMania run that had never been done before, and will never be done again. Every year, The Deadman would face down a worthy adversary — be it Triple H, Shawn Michaels, his brother Kane — and every year he would add another number to his win column until it stood at a towering 21-0.
The Undertaker’s match against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania was meant to make it 22-0. The Phenom would conquer The Beast — altho..

205 Live

Commentators: Jon Quasto, Aiden English
We’re still in the new version of the show here and that’s the kind of thing that 205 Live has been needing. It’s just a showcase show these days with no pressure or stories, but more importantly they don’t have the vanishing crowds or extended shows. It’s a good sign, even though the show is little more than filler on the Network. Let’s get to it.
Opening sequence.
Isaiah Scott vs. Joaquin Wilde Wilde goes with the hammerlock on the mat to start before switching over to the armbar. Scott is right back up and they trade headscissors to a standoff. Another headscissors sends Scott to the floor but he pulls the ring skirt aside to trap Wilde. Some kicks to the back set up some forearms to the face as Scott is a bit more aggressive this time. The chinlock sets up a Gory Stretch of all things, cranking the arms together rather hard.
Scott even leans down into a backs..
