Go Faster: WWE Money In The Bank Allegedly Almost Shut Down By Governor Of Connecticut
That would have been different. Three years ago, the Coronavirus pandemic turned the world upside down and things have only recently returned to mostly normal.

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.

WRESTLING RUMORS: Trish Stratus Planned For Major WWE Feud
That would be a different way to go. Legends can do a lot of good things in wrestling as they offer a variety of unique opportunities that regular stars cannot pull off. It can mean a lot to have a legend pop up in the right spot and that is still the case today in WWE. This time around, we might be in for a major story involving a past star mixing it up with a current top star.

Get Your Money Ready: WWE Attempts To Legalize Betting On Matches
Money money? One of the biggest criticisms that you will hear of professional wrestling is that the endings are planned out in advance as the entire presentation is fixed. While this is true, the stories are built up in a way to leave fans wondering what they are going to see in a match or story. That can make things all the more interesting, and it could potentially make some money.

It’s Over: Six Month Old Streak Snapped On Monday Night Raw
It had to happen at some point. Wrestling is a weird sport in that while wins and losses matter, the results are planned in advance. What makes it more interesting is that fans can get behind the idea of a wrestler winning over and over, as it makes them seem like a bigger star. Every wrestler has to lose at some point though, and now one of the winning streaks has been broken.

Not Now: Update On Bray Wyatt’s Planned Horror Film
Slight snag. Wrestlers have tried their hands at acting for years now and the connection makes sense. Wrestling is designed around the idea of making fans believe that what they are seeing is real, which has led to wrestlers appearing in the occasional acting project. A prominent WWE wrestler is now trying his hand at it as well, but now things might be slowed down for the time being.
