WATCH: Tag Team Splits On NXT In Mid-Match Betrayal

They’re done. Tag teams have a strange history in WWE as they often feel like they are put together for the sake of being split up. This can cause some rather abrupt endings for teams, as they seemingly go from happy to split in a matter of days. Something similar has happened again in NXT as a team that only started having troubles a few weeks ago have now split up. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: BREAKING: WWE Announces Newest Inductee Into Hall Of Fame Ivy Nile and Tatum Paxley split up this week on NXT when Paxley turned on Nile during a match. The two were involved in a #1 contenders triple threat match when Paxley refused to accept Nile’s tag and then attacked her.

They have a history together. Check out the split, plus the two in happier times: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post..

WATCH: Undertaker Reveals Surprising Name Considered To End The Streak

What could have been. There are all kinds of records and accomplishments in WWE history but only a few stand out above the rest. These are the moments and triumphs that are remembered for years to come and it can mean a lot to see one of them either reached or ended. Perhaps the most famous one cane to an end about nine years ago, but it was almost much sooner. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The Battle Continues: WWE Interested In Star Who Appeared On AEW Dynamite At WrestleMania 30 in 2014, the Undertaker’s 21-0 undefeated streak at WrestleMania came to an end. The Streak, which began in 1991, had seen Undertaker defeat several future Hall of Famers and win multiple World Titles at WrestleMania.

LOOK: WWE Star Shows Off Remarkable Physical Transformation

That is some work. There are all kinds of things that go into making a wrestler feel like a star and one of the biggest is their physical appearance. It can be rather impressive to see how much someone can change their physique over the years and how much work they have to put into the process. Now a WWE star is showing just how impressive his change has been.

WRESTLING RUMORS: WWE Discusses Introducing New Star For Major NXT Angle

That’s a way to go. While WWE is on the Road To WrestleMania, NXT has its own major event coming up. The afternoon of Night One of WrestleMania 39 will see NXT Stand & Deliver, the biggest NXT show of the year. The show will be in a major arena and that means they are going to need something special. Now we have an idea of one of what one of those bigger matches might be. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The Big Spot: WWE Internally Discusses WrestleMania 39 Night One Main Event Over the last few weeks, Grayson Waller has tormented NXT executive Shawn Michaels, including mentioning Stand & Deliver.

WATCH: Naomi And Mercedes Mone Appear Together In New Advertisement

They’re still a thing. Nine months ago, Naomi and Mercedes Mone (then Sasha Banks) walked out on WWE on the same night, vacating their Women’s Tag Team Titles in the process. That is the kind of career altering change that you do not see a wrestler deal with very often, but the two seemed united in what they were doing. Now we will get to see them united again in a very different world. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Maybe Later: How WWE Nixed Plans To Bring Back Finn Balor’s Demon The Bar Rescue Twitter account has sent out a video advertising an upcoming episode.

Delayed: WWE Star Dealing With Visa Issues, Causes Him To Major Show

That’s a problem. There are all kinds of reasons for a wrestler to miss time, and some of them have to do with legal troubles. That can range from being in trouble to having to take care of an issue, but either version can keep someone on the sidelines. That is the current situation with a new WWE star, as some legal issues are preventing him from being able to debut. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: LOOK: NXT Star Suffers Nasty Injury At Vengeance Day (Contains Slightly Graphic Photo) Last year, former AAA star Dragon Lee announced that he had signed with WWE, though he has yet to make his debut.

Lee did appear on La Previa de WWE for the Royal Rumble, marking his first official appearance. There is no word on when Lee will be allowed to debut. Lee is a talen..

NXT Vengeance Day 2023 Results

Vengeance Day 2023 Date: February 4, 2023 Location: Spectrum Center, Charlotte, North Carolina Commentators: Vic Joseph, Booker T. NXT is back on the road for the first time since Stand & Deliver all the way back in the spring. That is something that could do a lot of good for NXT and the card is pretty stacked as well. We have a bunch of title matches here, capped off by Bron Breakker defending the NXT Title against Grayson Waller inside a cage. Let’s get to it. Charlotte hosts the opening video, which features all of the wrestlers coming into what looks like a mini arena (probably at the Performance Center) and staring each other down. Commentary says they are on the road for the first time since they took over Portland over 1,000 days ago. North American Title: Wes Lee vs. Dijak Lee is defending and suckers Dijak into the corner to start. A missed charge lets Lee hit a slingshot hurricanrana (nearly taking out the referee in the process) to send Dijak outside. Back in and Dijak ..

Bobby Lashley on Another Match With Brock Lesnar: “It’s About To Happen”

Bobby Lashley was recently interviewed by the Hindustan Times where he discussed a number of topics. Among them was another match with Brock Lesnar, an angle with Chris Masters from back in the day, which title he wants to go after next, and more. Below are some highlights from the interview: On another match with Brock Lesnar: “You know the interesting thing about Brock and I. I just met Brock maybe a couple years ago. Everybody was talking about us having this matchup for probably the beginning of my career back in 2005, but we never crossed paths. When he went to MMA, I was still in professional wrestling. I went to MMA, he went to professional wrestling and we just kind off kept messing with each other and not since probably maybe a few years ago did we first meet. There hasn’t been too much interaction between the two of us. We’ve had a few matches, a few interactions that have happened on screen, but outside of that Brock’s kind of a guy that kind of keeps it to himself. So th..

They Didn’t Smell? More On The Rock Possibly Not Wrestling At WrestleMania 39

Maybe later. We are less than three months away from WrestleMania 39 and that means it is time to start hammering down the card for the show. With so many moving parts to the whole thing, WrestleMania can be very difficult to put together, but WWE does have some ideas in place. However, it seems that they may have known that one big match was not going to take place for some time.

According to Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE may have known that Rock was not going to be able to do the match months ago. However, there is always a chance of a swerve, as Rock may have only told his real status to a few people. Those in WWE have reportedly said “it’s not looking good” for Rock to wrestle. There is nothing to suggest that Rock will be appearing on WWE TV anytime soon. Rock..
