WATCH: WWE Tag Team Turns Evil In SmackDown Return

Welcome back? With so many wrestlers on its roster, it can be a little difficult for WWE stars to stand out. Over time, some wrestlers are going to get stale or just need something new to make them feel like they matter again. This is easier said than done, but there are certain tricks that can make it better. That was on display again this week with a surprise twist on a return. This week on SmackDown, the Viking Raiders made their scheduled return, where they attacked the New Day from behind. This led to a beatdown of the New Day, as the Raiders turned heel in the process. Later in the show, they said that they were afraid of no one and no one was safe. The team has not wrestled on WWE television since the March 28 edition of Monday Night Raw. That’s quite the change. Check out the Raiders’ return and attack: [This post contains video, click to play] Opinion: This is the kind of move that the Raiders need and it does sort of fit them better. The team is a pair of bruisers who ca..

NXT UK Results – December 2, 2021

NXT UK Date: December 2, 2021 Location: BT Sports Studios, London, England Commentators: Andy Shepherd, Nigel McGuinness It’s time for a big show with the United Kingdom Title on the line as Ilja Dragunov defends against Rampage Brown. Dragunov works well against big powerful bruisers so we should be in for a good one here. Other than that, we have…well probably a bunch of UK wrestlers in a variety of matches. Let’s get to it. We open with a video on Brown vs. Dragunov. Opening sequence. Women’s Title: Meiko Satomura vs. Xia Brookside Brookside is challenging after whining her way into a title match (daddy threats were made). Satomura takes her down by the arm to start and a slightly shaken Brookside gets up for a test of strength. A wristlock is broken up with some well timed flipping and spinning so Satomura takes her down by the leg for some cranking. Brookside grabs a headlock takeover but gets reversed into a headscissors. That’s broken up with a headstand and a bit of dancin..

Ring Of Honor TV Results – November 17, 2021

Ring of Honor Date: November 17, 2021 Location: 2300 Arena, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Commentators: Ian Riccaboni, Silas Young The long march to Final Battle continues as we are still in the post-Death Before Dishonor TV tapings. In other words, these are still matches from before all of the company’s future went away, so there might still be a little something here. Then again, I’m not sure how much hope that really is. Let’s get to it. Opening sequence. Quinn McKay welcomes us to the show and gives us the rundown. Caprice Coleman vs. Beer City Bruiser This is Coleman’s first singles match in a long time and Bruiser has Brian Milonas and Ken Dixon with him. Before the match, Bruiser says Coleman wasn’t an official entrant in the Honor Rumble so he was never eliminated and should be #1 contender. Coleman comes to the ring and Bruiser laughs at the idea of Coleman getting back in the ring….so he can face Dixon instead. Caprice Coleman vs. Ken Dixon Dixon is in jeans and the Bounce..

NXT Results – September 14, 2021

NXT Date: September 14, 2021 Location: Capitol Wrestling Center, Orlando, Florida Commentators: Beth Phoenix, Vic Joseph, Wade Barrett We have arrived as it is time for the all new NXT, featuring a lot of the same people and whatever angles need to be wrapped up. I’m almost terrified of what this is going to include as the usual suspects from Raw are in charge. We have a wedding and a vacant World Title to fill though so let’s get to it. We open with a quick recap of Samoa Joe vacating the NXT Title and the setup of the four way for the vacant championship. Tommaso Ciampa doesn’t care which NXT it is because he’ll be champion. Pete Dunne thinks it is time for a Bruiserweight Champion. Kyle O’Reilly is ready to achieve a goal sixteen years in the making. LA Knight knows Samoa Joe was scared of him and now three men are stuck in the same spot. Someone named Bron Breaker (better known as Bronson Rechsteiner) comes up to Knight and says he wants a chance to prove himself. Knight tell..

Ring Of Honor TV Results – September 9, 2020

Ring of Honor Date: September 9, 2020 Back when the Best Of shows began, I jokingly suggested that we would be getting the Best Of The Bouncers one day if this went on long enough and now that is exactly what we are getting. The team is a fun goofy act, but I’m not sure if we need to see a full show about them. Let’s get to it. Bouncers video. The Bouncers join us via Zoom with both guys being rather pleased with being on the big screen for once. They’re excited that Ring of Honor is going to be back but for now, they’re happy with drinking beer and watching their best fights. They’ll start off with a big match for some titles. From ROH TV, October 3, 2018. Six Man Tag Team Titles: Cody/Young Bucks vs. Silas Young/Bouncers Cody, with Brandi and Bernard, and the Bucks are defending. Matt tries his luck with the massive Milonas to start and gets knocked into the corner without much effort. Bruiser comes in to overpower Nick so everything breaks down with the champs triple dropkicking..

Ring of Honor TV Results – March 18, 2020

Ring of Honor Date: March 18, 2020 Location: UMBC Events Center, Baltimore, Maryland Commentators: Caprice Coleman, Ian Riccaboni Host: Quinn McKay This has to be the last show from Baltimore right? If my math is correct, they should have seven or eight weeks of television from their last two shows, but after that it’s going to be interesting in a hurry. These shows have been good so far and hopefully the trend continues this week. Let’s get to it. Opening sequence. We open with a recap of Jay Lethal and Jonathan Gresham winning the Tag Team Titles in a great match at Final Battle. Battle Royal Beer City Bruiser, Brawler Milonas, Tracy Williams, Cheeseburger, Josh Woods, Brian Johnson, PJ Black, Silas Young, Blue Meanie, Rhett Titus, Maria Manic, Gangrel, Delirious, Eli Isom, Kenny King, Dragon Lee, Crowbar, Dak Draper, Danhausen, Leon St. Giovanni The winner gets a future World Title shot. Gangrel blows the liquid in King’s face during entrances and most of the people get in at t..

Pete Dunne Talks Elevating The WWE United Kingdom Championship, His Surprise Appearance On RAW Last Year, And More

"The Bruiserweight" in less of a joint-manipulating mood. The current WWE United Kingdom Champion Pete Dunne was stabbed in the back recently by a man who he rolled through the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic with, Roderick Strong. Prior to the events that transpired between the two at NXT TakeOver: New Orleans, Dunne spoke with 'Inside The Ropes' and mentioned his then-partner Roderick Strong as being one of the reasons that he has been able to elevate the U.K. Championship. "Yeah its great. I see a lot of people asking about what are the rules, who can it be defended to. You know, much like the European Title back in the day, I think its great if anybody can wrestle for it especially when it’s the caliber of people like Gargano, people like Roddy, and the more we can do that and the more we can shed light on the U.K. Title and the U.K. division the better," Dunne continued, "And the more its going to elevate that title so when more U.K. talents does get the chance to wrestl..

WWE NXT Spoilers – May 31st – June 21st, 2017

<p>WWE will tape the May 31st to June 21st episodes of NXT at Full Sail University tonight. Here are the results from the show:</p><p>* Dark match: Jeet Rama defeats Chris Silvio.</p><p><strong>May 31st</strong></p><p>* <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/wrestler/tyler-bate" title="Tyler Bate">Tyler Bate</a></strong> defeats Steve Cutler.</p><p>* Ciampa comes out on crutches. The crowd is chanting, “Why Ciampa, why?” Ciampa invites Gargano out to the ring because he feels he owes him an explanation. Thursday before Takeover Ciampa sustained an injury, it didn’t matter, he was still going to fight. But the people were thinking up dream partners for Gargano, it took 24 hours for Ciampa to become an afterthought to the fans. When Ciampa realized they lost he knew he was injured & going away for a long time, when he looked across at John it became clear. That if Ciampa went away Gargano would replace him, Ciampa won’t become an afterthought, and in that moment he made his choice. It is the fans fault and it is Gargano’s fault that DIY is done, if Ciampa has to go away then Gargano had to go away too. Takeover: Chicago was supposed to be DIY’s moment, but it ended up being Ciampa’s moment. Ciampa is irreplaceable, Gargano is irreplaceable, the fans are replaceable. When Ciampa returns he will be the most dangerous man in professional wrestling and everyone is on notice.</p><p>* Pete Dunne defeats <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/wrestler/danny-burch" title="Danny Burch">Danny Burch</a></strong>. After the match Dunne cuts a promo. He says since January he had to watch some boy carry what was rightfully his. History will remember that WWE UK began with the crowning of “The Bruiserweight” Pete Dunne.</p><p>* Cezar Bononi defeats Cien Almas with a small package.</p><p>* Kassius Ohno & <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/wrestler/roderick-strong" title="Roderick Strong">Roderick Strong</a></strong> vs. Eric Young & Alexander Wolfe. No Way Jose made his return to assist Ohno & Strong in beating Sanity.</p><p>* Dana Warrior is here to honor a local Orlando teacher for her charity work. “Thank You, Ruby” chants.</p>
