That’s a bad result. You never know when you might see someone get taken out of the ring by an injury. It is the kind of thing that can happen at any given time and something that happens in a split second can put them on the shelf for a long time to come. Unfortunately that seems to be the case with a current WWE star and they could be out of action for a rather good while.
One of the worst things that you can see in an injury is when it changes what happens to other wrestlers at the same time. If a wrestler is in a tag team, what happens to them can derail their partner’s career as well, especially if they are a team which does not work as well separated. That looks to be taking place now as a single injury could do damage to two wrestlers.
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Rezar has suffered a torn bicep and will be out of action. At the moment it is not clear if he will need surgery, but if he does, he will be out of action for six to eight months. The injury took place on M..

They do have a bit of knowledge on the subject. If you have been paying attention to the news as of late, you have probably heard about the Coronavirus. The disease has been making its way around the world and killed thousands of people, which has caused several organizations to change plans. This has included sports leagues either canceling events or not allowing fans to attend. With WrestleMania 36 just around the corner, WWE has been in the news related to the Coronavirus, but it turns out that something is a little different this time around.
One of the main things that you will hear people who have have contracted the virus doing is quarantining themselves to help prevent the spread of the disease. In addition to this, various companies have been asking employees to work from home instead of coming in to work and possibly contaminating others. WWE would be no different, but they might not have to be yet.
Over the weekend, Brad Shepard reported that a WWE employee, who did not wo..

It’s a big one. History was made last year at WrestleMania 35. For the first time ever, a women’s match headlined the show, which seemed like an impossible dream just a year earlier. It was a true game changer and the peak of women’s wrestling. Becky Lynch won the triple threat main event and has held the title ever since. That makes for a big match coming up at WrestleMania 36 and now we know where the title match is going.
Every now and then, WWE will do their best to set up a major match in advance without giving away what they are going to do. The problem comes when you know what is coming and it becomes very obvious, which leaves the next few weeks feeling rather unimportant. WWE made that happen again this time around and now we have the pretty obvious match set.
On Sunday at Elimination Chamber, Shayna Baszler won the Elimination Chamber match to become #1 contender to Lynch’s Raw Women’s Title, with her title shot coming at WrestleMania 36. Baszler eliminated all five opponen..

Well that was a surprise. We are less than four weeks away from Wrestlemania and that means things are starting to come into focus. At the same time though, there are still a lot of things to get done first and that means we could see some things happen before we get there. That included at Elimination Chamber, there a surprise title change took place in a unique way.
Titles are one of the most important things in all of wrestling. It is very rare to see a feud that doesn’t involve a title in some way and they are one of the easiest ways to advance a story. When someone steals a title from someone more deserving, it can get all the more frustrating and that can set up a heck of a rematch. That may be the case at the moment, with WrestleMania looming.
Sami Zayn won the Intercontinental Title from Braun Strowman in a handicap match at Elimination Chamber. Zayn was part of a three man team, also including Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura, who helped him defeat Strowman. The match was Nakamu..

Someone has to get in there. While WWE may be presenting Elimination Chamber this weekend, it might not even be the most anticipated cage match coming this month. AEW is running their own major cage match this month with Blood and Guts, which is their name for WarGames. WWE has run their own version before, but this one is feeling different. Now we know what it is going to mean.
WarGames is one of those matches that almost gives you chills. Some of the battles back in the WCW days were the things of legends and they make you wonder what kind of battles you could have in today’s wrestling world. The problem is you can’t have a classic WarGames match under WWE’s current rules. AEW does not follow those rules though and now we have people entering the battleground.
AEW has announced that Blood and Guts will be a ten man tag with the Inner Circle (Chris Jericho, Jake Hager, Sammy Guevara, Santana and Ortiz) facing the Elite (Kenny Omega, Cody, Adam Page, Young Bucks). The match will take..

That’s how you fill out a card. We are less than a month away from WrestleMania 36 and the card is starting to come together. However, if this year’s edition is anything like the previous years’ versions, the card is going to be rather full with all kinds of matches on the show. That includes several title matches, many of which will involve multiple challengers. We might know a few more that are coming.
Women’s wrestling has come a long way in just a few years, with the Women’s Titles becoming big deals but also with the addition of Women’s Tag Team Titles. These new titles have added more spots for women to get on the card and that makes things better for everyone involved. All of the titles are likely to be involved in some way at WrestleMania and some of the matches might be big ones.
According to Alex McCarthy of TalkSPORT, two more women’s matches are planned for Wrestlemania and both will be title matches. First, the SmackDown Women’s Title will be defended in a Six Pack Chall..

Elimination Chamber 2020
Date: March 8, 2020
Location: Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Commentators: Michael Cole, Corey Graves, Jerry Lawler, Byron Saxton, Tom Phillips
It’s time for the show the company mostly forgot until the last second. Thanks to being sandwiched between Super ShowDown and Wrestlemania, this is a show that has received very little attention and the build has suffered as a result. Neither World Champion is involved here and the likely main event is a #1 contenders match to the Raw Women’s Title. Let’s get to it.
Kickoff Show: Viking Raiders vs. Zack Ryder/Curt Hawkins Ryder and Ivar start things off and it’s an early power display from Ivar, who throws Ryder all over the place. Hawkins comes in and gets the same treatment but a cheap shot from the apron lets Hawkins grab a suplex for two. Hawkins’ neckbreaker gets the same and we hit the chinlock.
That doesn’t last long so Erik gets sent outside for a clothesline from the apron and we take a break..

That’s some good news. You never know when you might see a wrestler in the ring for the last time. They might leave a promotion for a variety of reasons, but even worse, they might have some sort of a medical situation that takes them out of the ring before they are ready. That is something that can happen to anyone and such a situation might have taken place on Friday.
On Friday night, Scott Steiner collapsed at an Impact Wrestling taping and was rushed to the hospital. It was not clear what had happened but something was obviously very wrong. The question became what would happen next and while we did get an update on his condition Friday night/Saturday morning, his future was not clear. We now have an idea of what is next for Steiner.
On Saturday, both Steiner’s wife and Tommy Dreamer sent out updates on Twitter, saying that Steiner was expected to make a complete recovery. Also, according to PWInsider.com, Steiner was in stable condition on Saturday and was undergoing a heart pro..

That’s never a good thing. Whether you like them or not, WWE is the biggest and most financially successful wrestling company the industry has ever seen. They can do almost anything they want because of the amount of money that they have, but that does not make them invincible. Occasionally they will have some setbacks, and one of them might come from an important group of people.
WWE’s stock has taken some major hits over the last few weeks and the general state of the stock market has made things even worse. The company has lost a ton of money in recent weeks and there is no indication that they are going to be able to turn it around in a hurry. Some people are not happy with the situation and as is so often the case, that means legal action.
According to Businesswire.com, the California law firm of Robbins, Geller, Rudman and Dowd LLP have filed a class action lawsuit against WWE on behalf of stockholders who purchased stock from February 7, 2019 – February 5, 2020. The basis of t..

She might have some su-itors, like in Impact Wrestling. Women’s wrestling has come so far in the last few years that it is almost impossible to fathom. The days of women as novelty acts who go out there for the sake of being eye candy are long gone and that is the kind of thing that is going to help move wrestling forward. It has also opened the door for several women’s divisions who never had the chance before. Now one of the more talented wrestlers in the world could be up for grabs.
The Impact Wrestling Knockouts division has been one of the high points of women’s wrestling before the WWE Women’s Revolution. Led by the likes of Gail Kim and Awesome Kong, the division was the first mainstream promotion to take women’s wrestling seriously. It is still a big deal in the promotion, but they may be about to lose one of their more unique talents.
Earlier this week, Su Yung sent out a series of nine tweets that spelled out the words “free agent”, suggesting that her contract with Impact ..

That’s one way to go for Hardy. There are a lot of people under the WWE umbrella and that is going to make it difficult to find something for all of them to do. NXT alone has a ton of people and since so many of them are new to the bigger stage, a lot of them might not have any kind of established gimmick or character. It can be hard to figure out something for everyone and WWE may have missed a big chance.
Back in 2016, Matt Hardy debuted the Broken character and reached a level that almost no one could have imagined he had in him. The story and characters were so over the top and insane that you could ignore a lot of their flaws, which made for some amazing moments. Now that being said, it would have taken a lot to make it work in WWE, but it turns out that WWE was interested in trying.
Hardy was interviewed by PW Insider Elite Audio and revealed that part of an offer for him to move to NXT would have involved leading a Woken (the WWE version of the Broken character) stable. The id..

We had to get through this one sooner or later. WWE can only do so many things at once and that has not been so clear in a long time. Just ten days ago, they were trying to build towards three shows at the same time and since one of them was in Saudi Arabia and the other one was Wrestlemania, Elimination Chamber was lost in the shuffle. Throw in the fact that the likely main event is designed to crown a pretty obvious #1 contender for the Raw Women’s Title and this show might not be the most appealing. Let’s get to it.
Smackdown Tag Team Titles: Elimination Chamber Miz and John Morrison are defending and in this case, that’s not a great thing for them. They won the titles a mere nine days ago and have already lost twice, because in WWE’s mind, that makes them tougher or something. Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler won a gauntlet match (because we can’t say Tag Team Turmoil anymore for whatever reason) to earn the right to enter last, as the best way to build up a six team elimination mat..
