Please Don’t Be Bad: WWE Star May Have Suffered An Injury

February 8, 2023

That could be serious. There are all kinds of injuries in wrestling and you never know when you are going to see someone put on the shelf for any amount of time. Seeing an injury of any kind is a bad thing as you don’t know when someone might be back in the ring. The tricky thing with wrestling is that there are storyline injuries as well, and now we don’t know which kind we are seeing. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Back Soon: Monday Night Raw Star Taking Break From WWE TV The main event of this week’s edition of Monday Night Raw saw Becky Lynch defeat Bayley in a steel cage match with an assist from Lita. Bayley appeared again this week on NXT for an episode of her Ding Dong Hello talk show, but her left arm was in a sling. There is no word on if this injury is legitimate or part of a storyline.

WRESTLING RUMORS: Another WWE Hall Of Famer To Return, Team With Lita/Becky Lynch

February 7, 2023

This is a big one. Legends have been used as a major part of wrestling for a very long time. Wrestling is one of the only sport where a legend can jump back in with almost no notice and become a focal point all over again. You never know when you are going to see one more match, and now we seem to be seeing it again with two legends looking set to come back to the ring. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: He’s Gone: WWE Announces Suspension For AEW Star Over Altercation With Shawn Michaels The main event of this week’s edition of Monday Night Raw saw Becky Lynch defeat Bayley in a steel cage match with the help of Lita.

WWE Hall of Famer Returns On Raw

February 7, 2023

She’s back. The main event of tonight’s episode of Raw featured a steel cage match between Becky Lynch and Bayley that was originally supposed to take place at Raw XXX. While Bayley would have backup with Dakota Kai and Iyo Sky, it appeared that The Man had some backup too. In the closing moments of the match, Lynch was getting ready to escape the cage, when interference from Kai and Sky prevented The Man from getting out. Just when it looks like Bayley was going to get the win, WWE Hall of Famer Lita made her return to television to even the odds. She would fight off Damage Control, slam the door in Bayley’s face, and allow Lynch to get the win. Lita was last seen on WWE programming at the 2022 Elimination Chamber premium live event, where she lost a match to Lynch. Editor’s Opinion: I did not see this one coming, but I’m glad I did! It’s always great when Lita is on television, and she looked fantastic in her role as always. If this leads to a tag match between the two opposing s..

Why WWE Star’s Crown Jewel Performance Was More Impressive Than It Seemed

November 7, 2022

That’s rather impressive. There are all kinds of wrestling matches to be had, some of which add something extra to ramp up the violence. These matches make things even more intense than usual and it feels special when you see one of them take place. Another was held over the weekend, and now we know something about it that made things all the more impressive. This weekend at WWE Crown Jewel, Drew McIntyre defeated Karrion Kross in a steel cage match. However, according to PWInsider.com, McIntyre wrestled the match while “extremely sick”. McIntyre missed some of the run throughs for his match but was adamant about wrestling no matter what. There is nothing to suggest that McIntyre will miss any ring time due to his illness. Opinion: This is one of those things that makes me even more impressed by McIntyre. He is one of the few wrestlers you never hear about missing shows or causing any issues whatsoever. Now he is working through an illness and made a big match anyway. You wouldn’t ha..

WWE Adds Two Big Grudge Matches To Crown Jewel Card

October 22, 2022

Two more on the list. We are rapidly approaching some one of the biggest WWE events of the year with Crown Jewel from Saudi Arabia. The show is one of two from the kingdom this year and that means WWE is going to want to stack the show up as much they can. That is what they did this week, as two more matches were added to the card, both of which feature a former World Champion. WWE added a pair of matches to the Crown Jewel card this week on SmackDown. First up, Braun Strowman challenged Omos to a match, with MVP accepting on Omos’ behalf. Second, Drew McIntyre announced that he has been forced to stay away from Karrion Kross until the two of them will face off in a steel cage match at Crown Jewel. The show takes place on Saturday November 5. Opinion: Both of these matches make sense for the show and it was more a case of waiting to get the matches announced.

WWE Couldn’t Make Up Their Mind About This Week’s Monday Night Raw

December 10, 2021

You could go one way or the other. This week’s edition of Monday Night Raw was bookended by a pair of huge matches. The show opened with a steel cage match between WWE Champion Big E. and Kevin Owens, while the main event featured Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch defending her title against Liv Morgan. That is quite the lineup, but it almost went a bit differently. According to PWInsider.com, WWE originally planned for the cage match to main event this week’s Monday Night Raw. The change was made due in part to the show taking place on the anniversary of the first women’s main event between Lita and Trish Stratus on December 6, 2004. Originally, the cage match was to have been a segment between Owens and Big E. talking about their upcoming match. It was a busy night.

Huge Title Change Takes Place At AEW All Out

September 6, 2021

It had to happen eventually. Titles are the easiest concept to understand in wrestling as anyone can understand the idea of a big shiny belt. Someone has the title and someone else wants it, meaning a title match can be held for the championship. Those are easy things to build and that was the case again this week, with some history being made once again. The AEW Tag Team Titles changed hands at All Out 2021 on Sunday night, as the Lucha Bros defeated the Young Bucks in a steel cage match. The teams have feuded throughout AEW’s history, including trading the AAA Tag Team Titles in 2019. The loss ends the Bucks’ record long reign at 302 days and makes the Bros the fifth champions in the history of the titles. The Bros are going to be awesome champions.

Your pick. There are a lot of ways to present a huge grudge match and that can make things all the more interesting. If a match has been done before, the best idea might be to slap some kind of special rules onto the rematch, which could make things all the more intense.

Well Hello Again. Former World Champion Returns At Starrcade.

November 25, 2018

Sometimes you get a surprise. This weekend, WWE presented Starrcade as a special house show. The event certainly has some history to it, even in WWE as it was held last year as well. The card was stacked and featured two steel cage matches and a special appearance from Ric Flair. However, in addition to the big card, there was a special surprise for the fans in attendance. Bray Wyatt made his return at Starrcade, answering an open challenge from Baron Corbin and defeating him with a rollup. After the pin, Corbin restarted the match with no disqualifications. This brought out Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to beat Wyatt down but Elias and Finn Balor made the save, allowing Wyatt to pick up the win with Sister Abigail. This was Wyatt’s first match since September 15 on Monday Night Raw. There is no word on when Wyatt will return to TV. How about a fresh one of these?
