That’s where we could be going. AEW has a unique setup for its major shows as the company does not run monthly pay per views. Instead, AEW presents quarterly major pay per view events, meaning that the cards are all that bigger. There are always major matches on the show, mainly focusing on the company’s championships. Now we might have a hint about what is coming up on their next pay per view.
The main event of this week’s edition of AEW Dynamite featured Hangman Page retaining the World Title over Lance Archer in a Texas Death Match. After the match was over, Adam Cole came to the ring and picked up the title belt to end the show. While not confirmed, this suggests that Cole will be Page’s next challenger at the Revolution pay per view event on March 6.
Opinion: This isn’t the biggest surprise in the world as Cole seems to be primed for the title shot. The match should be quite the showcase for both of them, as they are capable of having some great results when they get the chance…

It’s a hard job. There are a lot of jobs to do in the wrestling world and some of them are rather important. While the wrestlers themselves are the focal points of any given wrestling show, there is another group of people on most events that have an important role of their own. That would be the commentary team, whose consists of guiding the fans where the promotion wants them to go. It seems that WWE was not pleased with one of their more prominent voices.
During the most recent edition of his podcast, SmackDown broadcaster Pat McAfee revealed that he gets yelled at every time he refers to someone as a “future Hall of Famer”. Someone, occasionally Vince McMahon, will speak to him in his headset, saying that the company does not know if a wrestler will be inducted into the Hall of Fame or not. McAfee said that sometimes he tries to use the line as often as possible to see how many wrestlers he can name a future Hall of Famer per show. McAfee has been a full time SmackDown broadcaster..

Close the door behind you. AEW has done quite a few good things for the wrestling world, including adding a new place for all kinds of new wrestlers. Some of these wrestlers are names that you might not have not seen before. One of AEW’s most interesting traditions has been allowing wrestlers from other promotions to showcase themselves on a bigger stage. That was the case again this week.
This week’s edition of AEW Dynamite featured the debut of New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Jay White. During the show, White attacked Roppongi Vice to assist Adam Cole and the Young Bucks. This did not sit well with the Bucks, who were unhappy with Cole for not telling him that White was coming due to White’s issues with Kenny Omega in Japan. White came to the company through the Forbidden Door concept of bringing in wrestlers who are under contract with other promotions, meaning White has not been signed to AEW.
Opinion: While the main focus of the show was on the debut of Keith Lee, White is another big..

Welcome to the team. WWE has released well over one hundred wrestlers during the last year and a half. It is not clear if the string of releases has ended, but they have flooded the free agent market with some very talented wrestlers. That makes for some very interesting moments as wrestlers are able to appear all over the wrestling world. The same thing took place this week as another major name made his debut elsewhere.
This week’s AEW Dynamite featured the debut of Keith Lee, who appeared as a mystery opponent for Isiah Kassidy in a qualifying match for the Face of the Revolution ladder match. Lee won the match and will participate in the ladder match at Revolution on March 6. This is Lee’s first match since being released from WWE in November and AEW President Tony Khan has announced that he has signed a contract with the company.

This is another big night and that is because Tony Khan has promised a huge debut in a qualifying match for the Face of the Revolution ladder match. As a result, there has been a lot of excited speculation and that has made the show feel that much more important. Other than that, we are probably seeing some more from the potential Jon Moxley/Bryan Danielson pairing. Let’s get to it.
Opening sequence.
Here is Wardlow with some cardboard cutouts of MJF sitting on CM Punk’s chest and MJF putting Punk in the sleeper. Wardlow looks annoyed as he hands Justin Roberts some cards with introductions for FTR with Tully Blanchard and Shawn Spears, who has his own introduction for MJF. As you might expect, it is as over the top as you can get, including talking about how he beat punk TWICE in the garbage heap that is Chicago in the mid-mid-mid-midwest.
MJF comes..

He was on deck. WWE has been around for a very long time now and there have been countless wrestlers walking in and out of the door. While there have been a lot of wrestlers, there are even fewer who have made any serious impact. Those wrestlers are big deals and when you see them pop up again, it can mean a lot. That was almost the case last month in a pretty big role.
During a recent interview with Sportskeeda, WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam said that he contacted WWE about being on standby for the men’s Royal Rumble. Van Dam even had a special outfit made up for the event, though WWE did not call him for the event. This came as WWE was said to have several NXT names on standby in case the Coronavirus took some scheduled names out of the match. Van Dam has wrestled multiple stints in WWE, with his most recent match taking place in August 2014.
Opinion: It’s kind of a shame that WWE did not take Van Dam up on his offer as he is a star who would have gotten a nice reaction. Van Dam is..

That’s a side job. With such packed schedules, wrestlers rarely have that much free time on their hands. Whether it is wrestling for a national promotion or being on the road with a variety of independent companies, wrestling is a very time demanding job. It makes free time that much more valuable, especially for major events. One took place over the weekend though, with a wrestling legend playing a major role.
As previously reported, former WWE stars Keith Lee and Mia Yim got married last weekend. According to 411mania.com, WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley officiated the ceremony, as he had offered to do months ago. Lee thanked Foley for his service, with Foley saying it was his honor. Neither Yim nor Lee have wrestled since leaving WWE in November 2021, but Lee is rumored as a possible (yet unconfirmed) AEW signing.
A plethora of thanks @RealMickFoley. Shout should you ever require me.

It was an honor, my friend.

That’s a no then. WWE has had a lot of stars over the years and some of them have done rather well during their time with the company. While several of them have won championships, a smaller number have been enshrined in the WWE Hall of Fame. For WWE stars, it is perhaps the greatest honor possible and WWE inducts a class every year. That will not be the case for one star this year and he has a very specific reason.
Last year, Jeff Hardy walked out on WWE during a match at a live event. Hardy has yet to appear for another wrestling promotion since, though according to his brother Matt, Jeff turned down an offer to return to WWE. The offer included an induction into the WWE Hall of Fame, which Jeff declined. Matt discussed Jeff’s decision during a recent Twitch stream, saying that Jeff turned the offer down because it was a solo induction rather than the Hardys team. Jeff asked about inducting the Hardys as a team, but Matt was not allowed due to his AEW contract.
Opinion: That is a r..

Anything can happen in WWE. There are a lot of shows on the WWE calendar in any given year but there are some that stand out more than others. WWE has a series of signature shows that are bigger than the rest and as a result, they will have bigger stars around. While the shows can be planned out as well as possible, sometimes there are going to be some issues. That was the case with one of the most important ones this year.
According to Fightful Select, there was a mishap backstage during the men’s Royal Rumble. Randy Orton was scheduled to enter the match at #28 but as he was ready to go through the curtain, Shane McMahon’s music played instead. McMahon went to the curtain to complain about the mistake but Orton burst into laughter and “fell to the floor” over the situation. McMahon entered at #28 and Orton composed himself before entering at #29. Both would be eliminated by Brock Lesnar, the match’s eventual winner.
Opinion: This is one of those things that happens occasionally and..

Welcome to the team? With so many wrestlers on the WWE roster, it makes sense to split them into some groups. That is exactly what WWE has done, as the roster is split up between Monday Night Raw, SmackDown and the two NXT’s. You do not often see the rosters interacting with each other or wrestlers crossing over, but it does happen every now and then. That was the case again this week.
This week’s edition of NXT featured a surprise appearance from Monday Night Raw star Dolph Ziggler. NXT Champion Bron Breakker and #1 contender Santos Escobar were in the ring when Ziggler interrupted to talk to Breakker. Ziggler talked about his accomplishments in WWE and said that he might take Breakker’s title. Breakker said Ziggler could have the next title shot after Escobar, which led to Tommaso Ciampa coming to the ring. Ciampa said that he would be getting the next shot and brawled with Ziggler.
The appearance came after Ziggler and Breakker have traded shots online, which included Breakker tel..

They tried something new. WWE has been around for a very long time and that they are going to have more than a few different ways to present their product. One of the most important ideas is how well the matches are shot. Some of these methods are going to be a bit more notable than others and sometimes WWE will mix things up a little bit. That is what they tried again this week.
According to PWInsider.com, WWE used a different production technique during this week’s edition of NXT. This week’s show featured a camera operator in the ring with the wrestlers, who had to move around the camera operator instead. The new technique was used during the Grizzled Young Veterans vs. Creed Brothers match among others. There is no word on if this is something that will be done on a regular basis going forward.
Opinion: I don’t know if this is going to make that much of a difference in the broadcast, but it is a nice idea to see WWE trying something, even anything, new. The shows feel like they h..

They need something new. We are less than two months away from WrestleMania 38 and that means things are starting to come together. That is in theory at least, as WWE has a tendency to change their plans at a fairly rapid pace. It seems that is the case this year, as WWE has changed up the show’s card all over again, which means that they need to come up with something new.
Shortly after this year’s WWE Royal Rumble, WWE sent Shane McMahon home from the company over some issues with how he tried to produce the Royal Rumble match. According to the WrestleVotes Twitter account, McMahon was going to be in a match near the top of the card. As a result, WWE needs a new “major attraction” match, which is still to be determined. The card is said to still be “in complete flux”.
Source states the spot Shane McMahon was going to have on the WrestleMania card was to be positioned near the top. Therefore, WWE now needs a new “major attraction” matchup outside of the titles. This goes w/o saying,..
