Double shot. We are just over three weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and that means it is time to start getting ready for the most important card of the year. WWE has started putting together a bunch of the matches on the show with several already having been announced. There are still a lot to go though, and now we might be seeing some wrestlers in multiple matches. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: They’re In: How Two NXT Stars Confirmed Their Romantic Relationship According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the current plan for WrestleMania 39 calls for Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler to challenge for the Women’s Tag Team Titles. However, the current champions, Lita and Becky Lynch, are already set for a six woman tag where they will team with Trish Stratus against Damage CTRL. However, the expectation is that the champions will work twice. Rousey is currently dealing with an injury, but the plan for this week called for her to still work the show. There are some talented stars involved ..
It could be worse? We are getting closer and closer to WrestleMania and a lot of the card has already been set up. With so little time left though, there are only so many more changes that can be made. Occasionally something happens that necessitates a change though and while we have not reached that point just yet, one WWE star will not be going into WrestleMania as planned. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: It’s Over: Six Month Old Streak Snapped On Monday Night Raw Last week on SmackDown, Ronda Rousey accompanied Shayna Baszler to the ring with her arm in a sling. This was later revealed to be due to Rousey re-aggravating a previous injury. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Rousey and Baszler are still expected to challenge for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania, but Rousey is not likely to be at 100% for the match. The match has yet to be announced but as of now Tuesday, she is expected to work the show. Rousey is something else when she is healthy. Check out what she can..
They’re in a time crunch. We are less than four weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and that means it is time to get everything left over set up for the card. It is difficult to get some things together and it can be made even worse when a problem takes place out of nowhere. That seems to be the case again, as a star who is probably going to be on the card is injured. Now we know some more about the situation. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The Other Side: MJF Allegedly Said He’s “Looking Forward To Being” In WWE In 2024 This week on SmackDown, Ronda Rousey appeared with her arm in a sling after being attacked by Natalya and Tegan Nox earlier in the night. According to PWTorch.com, Rousey aggravated a prior injury, meaning that the planned tag team match between Rousey/Shayna Baszler vs. Nox/Natalya had to be changed. As of now, Rousey is still expected to wrestle at WrestleMania, though she has not had a match announced yet. A healthy Rousey is a force. Check out what should be at WrestleMania..
Ouch? With less than a month to go before WrestleMania 39, almost anything that happens on a WWE show is going to have some kind of ramifications on the upcoming big nights. Most of the stories have already been started but there is plenty of time for more things to happen on the way there. Another of those things might have happened this week and that could tie into a bigger story. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: What’s Next? Goldberg’s WWE Contract Is A Bit Strange At The Moment This week on SmackDown, a video showed Ronda Rousey being attacked earlier in the day by Tegan Nox and Natalya. As a result, Rousey’s arm was in a sling as she accompanied partner Shayna Baszler for her match against Nox later in the night. There is nothing to indicate that this is anything more than a storyline. This comes as the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has said there will be many more “twists and turns” before the Women’s Tag Team Title match at WrestleMania. While the match has yet to be announced, Baszler ..
She has the pull. There are certain stars in WWE who have more status and power than others. It can make for some very interesting moments when they use that status to get something they want, which can range anywhere from something simple to something that changes a fairly important aspect of the company. We might be seeing something in the latter, as a star is pushing for a certain change. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Not Now: Update On Bray Wyatt’s Planned Horror Film On the December 30, 2022 SmackDown, Ronda Rousey lost the SmackDown Women’s Title to Charlotte in an impromptu title defense. According to Wrestlingnews.co, this is because Rousey and Shayna Baszler will be challenging for the Women’s Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania 39. Rousey has been pushing for the match and according to a source “that’s the match she wants and whatever she wants she gets”. The title match has yet to be announced. https://wrestlingnews.co/wwe-news/spoiler-on-wrestlemania-title-match-why-plans-changed-f..
She kind of has a point. Women’s wrestling in WWE has come a very long way in the last few years, as the division has gone from little more than a side show to one of the company’s featured attractions. There are more women’s titles and stars being given a chance than ever before, but that does not mean everyone is pleased. One of the bigger stars in the division has something to say about her colleagues. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WATCH: WWE Superstar Continues To Show Change In Attitude This week’s SmackDown featured Shayna Baszler, with Ronda Rousey, defeating Natalya, with Tegan Nox. The match marked the first time that Nox and Natalya had worked together, with a vignette showing them setting up their newly formed partnership earlier in the day. Following the show, Rousey took to Twitter to say the SmackDown women’s tag team division consists of Natalya and anyone she can find that week. Rousey also criticized WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Damage Ctrl of not defending their titles. ..
That could slow her down. Wrestling is a physical sport and there is always the chance that someone is going to get banged up in one way or another. At times those problems are going to cause someone to miss some time from the ring, or at least possibly need to. That is the situation again, and now a WWE Superstar is waiting to see what she is allowed to do this week. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: D’Oh! Local WWE Advertisement Seems To Spoil Major Angle Natalya participated in the women’s Elimination Chamber on Saturday night. She has since posted to Twitter, revealing that she is feeling “a little beat up” after the match but promised that she will be at SmackDown. Shayna Baszler responded to Natalya, mocking her for being injured again and being upset over not being able to challenge Natalya for a match this week. Natalya responded as well, saying she’ll have to see what the medical team says she can do. Feeling a little beat up this week after Elimination Chamber, but I would go through..
That’s new for her. Back in 2018, Ronda Rousey made her WWE debut and instantly became one of the biggest stars in the company. A year after she made her in-ring debut, she was headlining WrestleMania in the first ever all women’s main event. Rousey is back in WWE after a hiatus and now it turns out that the company has something different planned for her at WrestleMania this year. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: In The Making: WWE Planned This WrestleMania 39 Match Since Last July In recent weeks, Rousey and her friend Shayna Baszler have been working together more often and talking about dominating the company. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, the current plan is for Rousey and Baszler to challenge for as well as win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles. It is not clear who will be defending the titles at the show, as reigning champions Damage Ctrl will defend the titles next week against Becky Lynch and Lita. Rousey and Baszler have been a heck of a team so far. Check out what they have ..
Smackdown Date: February 17, 2023 Location: Bell Center, Montreal, Quebec, Canada Commentators: Michael Cole, Wade Barrett We are a day away from Elimination Chamber and that means this is likely to be the Sami Zayn show. Tomorrow night the hometown boy Zayn gets his shot at Roman Reigns and I think the people might be a bit interested. Other than that we have Gunther defending the Intercontinental Title against Madcap Moss. Let’s get to it. We open with a recap of last week’s Usos/Bloodline drama, with Jimmy Uso getting caught lying about Jey Uso and Sami Zayn. Hence Roman Reigns telling the Usos to stay home this week. Natalya/Shotzi vs. Ronda Rousey/Shayna Baszler Fallout from Rousey and Baszler hurting both of them. Baszler cranks on Natalya’s arm to start and it’s quickly off to Rousey for another battle over arm control. Shotzi comes in to actually take Rousey down, setting up Cattle Mutilation of all things. Rousey powers out but gets sent outside, allowing Shotzi to hit a pr..
They just made the list. There are so many wrestlers on the WWE roster that it is difficult to keep track of everyone. That is the case for wrestling fans on a regular basis but there are also problems for the wrestling promotions on occasions. At the same time, there are ways for promotions to make this easier, and now we have a better idea of how WWE sees a lot of its stars. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: It’s A Matter Of Time: Interesting Detail On Lita’s WWE Return According to a list released by PWInsider.com by way of Bodyslam.net, here are the male wrestlers that WWE sees as the top five babyfaces and heels on SmackDown: Heels 1.

Raquel Rodrig..
That’s a different way to go. We are less than two months away from WrestleMania 39 and that means it is time to start getting the card ready for the show. The show’s main event is already set and you can probably guess a bit more of the card from here. However, there are some matches that might take you by surprise and now we might have another one ready for the card. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The Big One: WWE Officially Sets Main Event For Elimination Chamber (And It’s Special) Back on the December 30, 2022 SmackDown, Ronda Rousey lost the SmackDown Women’s Title to Charlotte. Rousey has not been seen since, including in last weekend’s Women’s Royal Rumble. However, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Rousey is expected to team with Shayna Baszler to challenge Damage Ctrl for the Women’s Tag Team Titles. Baszler and Rousey had teamed together in the weeks before Rousey’s absence, though they never challenged for the titles. This could be a heck of a fight. Check out the c..
This is her brutality. After entering the match at No. 1, Rhea Ripley went the distance and ended up becoming the winner of the 2023 Women’s Royal Rumble match. She would outlast 29 other superstars to punch her ticket to the main event of WrestleMania. Below is a list of entrances and eliminations: Women’s Royal Rumble entrants: Rhea Ripley Liv Morgan Dana Brooke Emma Shayna Baszler Bayley B-Fab Roxanne Perez Dakota Kai IYO SKY Natalya Candice LeRae Zoey Stark Xia Li Becky Lynch Tegan Nox Asuka Piper Niven Tamina Chelsea Green Zelina Vega Raquel Rodriguez Michin Lacey Evans Michelle McCool Indi Hartwell Sonya Deville Shotzi Nikki Cross Nia Jax Women’s Royal Rumble eliminations: B-Fab by Ripley Brooke by Bayley, Kai & Sky Emma by Kai Perez by Bayley, Kai & Sky Baszler by Bayley, Kai & Sky Natalya by Bayley, Kai & Sky LeRae by Sky Nox by Asuka Green by Ripley Nox by Lynch Sky by Lynch Lynch by Bayley Bayley by Morgan Li by Vega Tamina by McCool Stark by Deville Vega by Evans Hartwel..
It’s a different way to go. We are about to start the build to the biggest WWE event of the year with WrestleMania 39. Before we get there though, WWE has some more major shows to cover, with both the Royal Rumble and Elimination Chamber. Those events need some big time matches as well, including multiple title matches. Now we might have a hint of what is coming next. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WATCH: Groom Does Seth Rollins Entrance At Wedding, Rollins Responds On the last SmackDown of 2022, Charlotte made a surprise return and defeated Ronda Rousey to become the new SmackDown Women’s Champion.

That explains it. Injuries are one of the most common problems that a wrestler faces, as you never know when someone is going to be put on the shelf. Wrestlers can get injured at any time and occasionally you won’t see it happen. That can require a promotion to write them off television and now that seems to have happened again with a current WWE star who was recently attacked. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: That’s Scary: Hangman Page Reveals How Messed Up He Was After Recent Concussion Earlier this month, Shotzi was attacked by Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler on SmackDown. The two slammed a car door on Shotzi’s hand, breaking it in the process and putting Shotzi on the shelf. According to PWInsider.com, Shotzi is dealing with a legitimate injury, resulting in the angle being shot.

That would be extreme. Wrestling today is nothing close to what it was twenty years ago. The industry has completely changed with several aspects being nothing close to what it was before. This includes women’s wrestling, which has gone from little more than a side show to one of the focal points of WWE’s product. However, one wrestling legend has a certain thought process on modern WWE women’s wrestling and it’s rather different. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: She’s Missed: Backstage Reaction To Mandy Rose’s Surprise WWE Release During a recent edition of the Smack Talk podcast, wrestling legend Dutch Mantel criticized Tegan Nox’s return to WWE, saying she was unsure of herself. Mantel did say that the issue could have been attributed to ring rust but was not impressed with Nox’s armdrags. He also said that he would fire everyone in the division, save for Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler, only to hire them back five minutes later, just to show that he could. Nox didn’t seem to impress Mante..
That might be a bit. There are all kinds of ways for a wrestler to get hurt and none of them are positive. A wrestler can be put on the shelf for any length of time, but there are also injuries that they can work through. You never know how bad one of them is going to be, but now another wrestler has been hurt and the question is how long she is going to be missing from action. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: To The Other Side: Former NXT Champion Makes Surprise AEW Rampage Appearance Before this week’s WWE SmackDown went on the air, Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler attacked Shotzi in the parking lot, slamming her hand in a car door. Later in the show, commentary announced that Shotzi had suffered a broken hand in the attack. There is no word on how long Shotzi could be out of action as a result of the incident. So far, there is nothing to indicate that this is anything more than a storyline injury. This was nasty. Check out Rousey and Baszler’s attack, plus their match later in the show: [T..
The next steps. There are very few wrestlers in WWE with the star power of Ronda Rousey. She is still one of the biggest names in the history of mixed martial arts and is presented as one of the top stars in WWE. It means something for a wrestler to feud with her as it is a special opportunity. Now we have a better idea of what is next for her, including her likely next challenger. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Add Him Up: Another Former World Champion Reportedly Returning To WWE Last month, Rousey and Shayna Baszler attacked Raquel Rodriguez, resulting in her being written off WWE TV with a broken arm and dislocated elbow. However, according to Wrestlingnews.co, Rodriguez is expected to be the challenger for Rousey’s SmackDown Women’s Title at the Royal Rumble on January 28. In addition, Rousey is expected to go into WrestleMania 39 as champion, meaning that even if Rodriguez wins the title, she is not expected to hold it very long. That could be good. Check out the two in action and how ..
It’s a dangerous sport. There are all kinds of ways for a wrestler to be written off of television and many of them can be used to advance a storyline. These can be in the form of another wrestler doing something to get rid of their rival, including attacking them rather violently. That happened twice this week and it has resulted in a wrestler being written onto the shelf. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Really, Him? Road Dogg Alleges Brock Lesnar Would Not Work With This One WWE Star This week’s SmackDown featured a backstage segment where Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler attacked Raquel Rodriguez and slammed her arm in an equipment case. Later in the night, Rodriguez teamed with Shotzi against Baszler and Rousey, both of whom did further damage to her arm. Shotzi announced that Rodriguez had suffered a broken arm and a dislocated elbow. There is no word on how long Rodriguez will be out of action, though there is nothing to suggest that this is anything but a storyline. It was a rough nigh..
