AEW Dynamite Results – March 15, 2023

Dynamite Date: March 15, 2023 Location: Canada Life Centre, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Commentators: Excalibur, Tony Schiavone, Taz We’re in Canada this week and that means it is time for…well it doesn’t really mean much but the All-Atlantic Title is now the International Title with Orange Cassidy defending against Jeff Jarrett. Other than that we have MJF’s Re-bar Mitzvah, which should be quite the spectacle. Let’s get to it. Opening sequence. Here is MJF, complete with four women (one of who he kisses) and a chyron that says “Jewish AF” for the Re-Bar Mitzvah. He already had one of these back when he was a kid and it was awesome. Now though, he has beaten Bryan Danielson so it is time to do it again on the big stage because HE IS IRON MAN. MJF says hit the music so here are a bunch of people with a chair, meaning it’s time to dance in a circle (which I believe is a religious tradition)…but here is Jungle Boy to interrupt. Then it’s Sammy Guevara coming out as well. We’re only mis..

No More: WWE Star Confirms Departure From Company

She’s done. It can mean a lot when a wrestler gets signed to WWE, as it is often the pinnacle of their careers. Having a wrestler make it to the biggest stage in wrestling can change their status for fans. At the same time, it can be quite the change when they depart the company. Now another wrestler is confirming that they have left WWE following a long period of inactivity. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Not A Fan: Wrestling Legend On Johnny Gargano: “He’s Not Over. Listen To That Crowd” Earlier this month, reports surfaced that Sarray had left WWE after several months away from the ring. Now Sarray herself has confirmed the departure, talking about how grateful she was for her time in the company. She said that she learned a lot in America and confirmed that she would be returning to the ring in Japan on May 16. Sarray debuted with WWE in April 2021 and wrestled her last match there in August 2022. No matter what some people might say, I did my best. I am so glad that I had the chance to..

Impact Wrestling Results – March 2, 2023

Impact Wrestling Date: March 2, 2023 Location: Sam’s Town Hotel & Gambling Hall, Las Vegas, Nevada Commentators: Tom Hannifan, Matthew Rehwoldt We are done with No Surrender and that means we are at least one step closer to Rebellion in April. Josh Alexander is still the World Champion after retaining over Rich Swann, but now Steve Maclin is waiting on the champ. That should make for a good buildup and they have time to make it work. Let’s get to it. We open with a recap of No Surrender. Here is the Bullet Club for a chat to start. Chris Bey is rather happy about what he and Ace Austin have been doing lately, including beating the Motor City Machine Guns (in a six man tag) at No Surrender. Bey talks about helping set up the ring in this building before making his Impact Wrestling debut here as well. It turns out that Austin debuted here too but he would rather talk about beating Chris Sabin. After revealing Austin’s “I BEAT CHRIS SABIN”, we get a quick audience poll over who the be..

It’s A Dangerous Place: NXT Star Attacked In Parking Lot By Unknown Assailant

They did it again. There are all kinds of ways to write someone off of a wrestling television show, with an injury being one of the most common. Announcing that a wrestler is hurt can take a story in several ways, including the option of someone specific causing the injury. That is a favorite in NXT and now we have seen it again, with another wrestler being attacked. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Missing In Action: Speculation On Matt Riddle’s WWE Status This week on NXT, Wendy Choo was attacked in the NXT parking lot by an unknown assailant. Katana Chance announced that Choo had been found in the parking lot, where she was seen holding her arm. There is no word on whether Choo will miss time, or when she will be back if she does. This comes about a month after Nikkita Lyons was attacked in the parking lot, after which she announced that she had torn her ACL and would be out of action for roughly a year. That’s a dangerous parking lot. Check out some of the attacks there: [This post conta..

She’s Out: Very Unique Reason For WWE Star Missing Monday Night Raw This Week

That’s a rare reason. With so many different wrestlers on the WWE roster, there is going to be quite the collection of stars from around the world and from different backgrounds. That can make for some interesting situations, some of which are more negative than others. That was the case again this week, as a WWE star was not allowed to be at a show, though the absence was written in. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Long Form: NXT Star Gives Injury Update, To Miss 11-12 Months With Torn ACL This week on Monday Night Raw, Adam Pearce received a phone call from Chelsea Green, saying she had been sent to Ottawa, Illinois rather than Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, causing her to miss the show. According to Fightful Select, this was due to Green not being cleared to return to Canada, meaning she was not allowed to appear at the show. Green was spotted in New York City during the show, attending a performance of her husband Matt Cardona’s musical “The Last Match”. Green has had an interesting path since..

Long Form: NXT Star Gives Injury Update, To Miss 11-12 Months With Torn ACL

That’s a very long time. Injuries are one of the worst things that can happen to any wrestler as you never want to see someone put on the shelf. Unfortunately, no matter how much talent, experience or training that a wrestler can have, there is always the chance that something is going to go wrong. That was the case a few weeks back and now we know just how bad things are. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: A New Direction: WWE Plans Surprise Title Change At WrestleMania 39 (POSSIBLE SPOILERS) Back in January, Nikkita Lyons was attacked in the NXT parking lot. Shortly thereafter, Lyons announced that she had suffered a torn ACL and had undergone surgery to repair the injury. Lyons appeared on this week’s edition of NXT and announced that she will be out of action for eleven to twelve months. WWE has still not announced who attacked Lyons in the parking lot. Lyons is quite the loss. Check out the attack, her announcement, plus some of her time in the ring: [This post contains video, click to pl..

WATCH: WWE Star Teases Major Turn After SmackDown Goes Off The Air

That has potential. Every so often, a wrestler will change from good to bad or vice versa. These changes can alter the course of their future as sometimes going to the other side is the right change for them. These changes can be exactly what a wrestler needs at times and we might have seen a big one for an up and coming star after this week’s SmackDown went off the air. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: To The Shelf: NXT Star Reveals Torn ACL, Surgery Scheduled For Next Week The main event of this week’s SmackDown was a fatal four way between Karrion Kross, Madcap Moss, Santos Escobar and Rey Mysterio. The match was the first time ever for two latter two to face off in an official match. Following the show, the two met in the locker room, with Escobar talking about how he wanted to take Rey’s legacy. Escobar said that while he still wants it, he also respect Mysterio, and presented him with his mask. Mysterio responded by saying Escobar had told him that story before and then presented Escobar..

To The Shelf: NXT Star Reveals Torn ACL, Surgery Scheduled For Next Week

That’s a serious one. Injuries can take out any wrestler at any time and you never know when you are going to see someone put on the shelf for a good while. The question becomes just how bad the injury is and how long the recovery time is going to be. This time it seems that an NXT star has suffered one of the more severe injuries that they could receive. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Talk To Me: WWE Introduces New Broadcaster With Independent Background NXT’s Amari Miller has announced that she has suffered a torn ACL and will be undergoing surgery next week. While Miller did not list a time frame for her recovery, a torn ACL normally requires nearly a year of recovery. There is no word on when or how she suffered her injury. Miller made her NXT debut in September 2021 and has mainly competed on NXT LVL Up, though she has occasionally wrestled on NXT as well. I have torn my ACL and getting surgery next week Life happens in the CRAZIEST way. Everything happens for a reason and I totally t..

Impact Wrestling Results – February 2, 2023

Impact Wrestling Date: February 2, 2023 Location: Osceola Heritage Park, Kissimmee, Florida Commentators: Tom Hannifan, Matthew Rehwoldt It’s the start of a new month and we are well on our way to No Surrender. Last week saw Rich Swann win a #1 contenders match to earn a shot at Josh Alexander later this month, but it still feels like we are coming up on Steve Maclin as the really big bad. Odds are we see more of the build this week so let’s get to it. Opening recap. Opening sequence. Bullet Club vs. Kevin Knight/Kushida Knight and Ace start things off with Bey’s headlock not getting him very far. Knight misses a charge into the corner and Bey stomps him in the back, only to get caught with a springboard spinning crossbody. It’s off to Kushida to start in on the arm but it’s right back to Knight, whose springboard is dropkicked out of the air. Austin comes in to stomp Knight down for two and he kicks away at Knight in the corner. The Club starts taking turns on Knight, with Austin ..

Gone For Now: NXT Star Announces Torn ACL/Meniscus

That’s awful. There are all kinds of injuries in the wrestling world and some of them are a lot more serious than others. You never know when you are going to see a wrestler put on the shelf for a very long time and occasionally the injuries come out of nowhere. That was the situation again this week as a WWE star has been put on the shelf and will not be back for a good while. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: What Could Have Been: How WWE Changed Royal Rumble Finish To Make A New Star This week’s edition of NXT featured a backstage segment when Nikkita Lyons was found in the parking lot, clutching her knee. There was no word on who attacked her, but Lyons was later taken to a local medical facility. Lyons has since made a post to her Instagram, announcing that she has torn both her ACL and meniscus. There is no word on how long she will be out of action, but it will likely be several months. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Nikkita Lyons (@nikkita_wwe) Lyons should be great when..

Santino Marella Debuts In Impact Wrestling

He’s back! At tonight’s Impact Wrestling Hard to Kill pay-per-view event, former WWE superstar Santino Marella made his debut in Impact Wrestling. Marella made his entrance after Moose used a low blow to defeat Joe Hendry and announced that he is now in the role of the Director of Authority. He then restarted the match, which led to Hendry getting the win and retaining the Digital Media Championship. You can see a clip of the return below: .@milanmiracle is HERE and is the BRAND NEW Director of Authority! @TheMooseNation and @joehendry CONTINUES! #HardToKill pic.twitter.com/CY68Ndy8hF — IMPACT (@IMPACTWRESTLING) January 14, 2023 According to a report from WrestlingNews.co, Marella, whose real name is Anthony Carelli, is able to use the “Santino Marella” name because WWE abandoned the trademark some time ago and it was registered by attorney Mike Dockins last month. He retired from WWE due to neck issues and he has been running the BattleArts school/promotion in Toronto. Editor’s ..

Uh Oh? Seth Rollins Sends Out Worrying Tweet Referencing Major Injury

That’s not a good sign. Injuries are one of the worst things that you can see in the wrestling world as you never know when someone is going to be taken out of the ring for a long time. A wrestler can be hurt out of nowhere and the question becomes how long they are going to be gone. This week saw a WWE star possibly get hurt and now we might be getting a flashback. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: He’s Back? Update On Return Of Injured WWE Superstar The main event of this week’s Monday Night Raw saw Seth Rollins fail to regain the United States Title from Austin Theory. Following the show, Rollins’ knee, which had been worked on during the match, gave out and he had to be helped to the back. Rollins has since sent out a tweet saying “Redesign. Rebuild. Reclaim.” This is the same message that Rollins sent out after he tore his ACL in 2015. There is no word on if Rollins is actually injured or if this is part of a storyline. Redesign. Rebuild. Reclaim. — Seth “Freakin’” Rollins (@WWERollins) ..

SmackDown Results – December 23, 2022

Smackdown Date: December 23, 2022 Location: Allstate Arena, Rosemont, Illinois Commentators: Michael Cole, Wade Barrett It’s a taped show from Chicago, which means the fans should be livelier than most regular crowds. Since it is the Christmas season, the main event is a Miracle On 34th Street Fight as Ricochet and Braun Strowman vs. Imperium, but we also have a gauntlet match for a future Women’s Title match. Let’s get to it. Here is the Bloodline to get things going. Paul Heyman talks about all of their upcoming wins, including the Usos defeating Hit Row later tonight and Solo Sikoa getting another victory. Next week though, it’s the biggest televised match of the year, as Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn team up to defeat Kevin Owens and John Cena. Reigns get the mic, but has to pause for a SAMI chant. Next week, Reigns is going to SMASH someone, but Sami is looking a little off. Reigns tells him to get it off of his chest, so Sami talks about how he has found family and respect in the..
