Johnny Gargano Addresses Being Compared To Daniel Bryan, And Speaks On Working With Candice LeRae In NXT

“Johnny Wrestling” is on fire.
Coming down from an amazing start to his 2018, Mr. “All Heart” himself Johnny Gargano spoke with Chris Van Vliet recently and the two parties went over a number of topics including: Gargano being able to work with his wife Candice LeRae in NXT, the concern he's received from fans about being mishandled once he is called up to the main roster, and more.
Former PWG World Tag Team Champion Candice LeRae signed with the WWE earlier this year and her first piece of on-screen action came in the form of taking down Zelina Vega for Vega's constant interference in Johnny Gargano and Andrade “Cien” Almas' NXT Championship match at NXT TakeOver: Philadelphia. Johnny Gargano has stated on numerous occasions that he is elated to have Candice in the same company as he is and further dove into the topic in this interview.
“It's amazing how everything has worked out. It's literally a dream come true to be in the position I'm in. To be abl..

Pete Dunne Talks Elevating The WWE United Kingdom Championship, His Surprise Appearance On RAW Last Year, And More

“The Bruiserweight” in less of a joint-manipulating mood.
The current WWE United Kingdom Champion Pete Dunne was stabbed in the back recently by a man who he rolled through the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic with, Roderick Strong. Prior to the events that transpired between the two at NXT TakeOver: New Orleans, Dunne spoke with 'Inside The Ropes' and mentioned his then-partner Roderick Strong as being one of the reasons that he has been able to elevate the U.K. Championship.
“Yeah its great. I see a lot of people asking about what are the rules, who can it be defended to. You know, much like the European Title back in the day, I think its great if anybody can wrestle for it especially when it’s the caliber of people like Gargano, people like Roddy, and the more we can do that and the more we can shed light on the U.K. Title and the U.K. division the better,” Dunne continued, “And the more its going to elevate that title so when more U.K. talents does get the chance to wrestl..

After six years of being in a relationship with one another John Cena & Nikki Bella have called off their engagement and called it quits on their relationship. Last year at WrestleMania 33 in Orlando, FL John Cena proposed to the former two-time WWE Divas Champion in front of the entire world.
Today, both Nikki Bella & Cena gave a joint statement to Us Weekly regarding the news of the split:

While Cena was doing promotional work in March he spoke with Us Weekly and discussed the trails and tribulations that come with being in a relationship and how it takes a lot to mesh two ..

ROH’s Bobby Cruise Doesn’t Think WWE Wants To Put ROH Out Of Business

Ring of Honor announcer Bobby Cruise was recently interviewed by Wrestling Epicenter's Interactive Wrestling Radio. You can see highlights below, and the full interview above.
If companies should view it as WWE against the rest:
“I can see that. They are number one company in the world. I consider us (ROH) the number two company in the country. People sometimes argue with me on that. I don't know where the argument is these days. There is a BIG gap between number one and number two. They are a mega mainstream company. They have guys hosting the Today Show, on SportsCenter, in movies, and all that stuff. I guess it is easy to say it is WWE versus the World. The way I look at it as far as Ring of Honor, we've just done our own thing. Obviously, talent has come and gone over the years, ownership has changed, bookers have changed. But, the one thing that hasn't changed is the quality of the product in the ring. That's always been what we've excelled at and th..
