Cut It Out: WWE Edits Roman Reigns’ SmackDown Promo

•

That doesn’t fit. One of the most controversial decisions that WWE has made in the last fifteen years has been their shift towards a PG product. The move has caused a variety of changes in the promotion, including a change in their on-screen product. Certain things do not take place any longer and certain things are not said. This time around, WWE has edited something out. The WWE YouTube account has edited out a line from Roman Reigns’ promo on John Cena from last week’s SmackDown. While criticizing Cena’s return, Reigns said that everything was the same with Cena, describing it as “missionary position”. That statement is edited out, though it is still present on the WWE On FOX YouTube account. Cena vs. Reigns has yet to be made official. Cena and Reigns do have a history of words.

WWE Has A New Way To Sell Their Merchandise (This Is Different)

•

Well that’s different. WWE has been around for a long time now and has quite the history. Some of these things are better than others, as the company has certainly done a few things that are a bit less than successful. Some of these are among the most infamous in wrestling history. They have a new idea this time around and while it might not be that much of a disaster, it is certainly going to be unique. According to 411mania.com, WWE has sent out an email announcing a home shopping line, allowing fans to purchase merchandise of various WWE stars. The line will be open during this week’s edition of the Bump starting at 10am EST on WWE’s YouTube channel.

John Cena In Unlikely Match After Monday Night Raw

•

Enjoy him while you can. John Cena has long since become one of the most important and successful stars in the history of wrestling. Cena has won just about everything there is to win in WWE and has since moved on to Hollywood. He has never quite cut off WWE though, and now he is back for another run. That involves getting in the ring, which was the case this week as well. According to PWInsider.com, Cena wrestled in this week’s post-Monday Night Raw dark match. Cena teamed with Riddle to defeat Mace and T-Bar, with Cena hitting Mace with the Attitude Adjustment for the pin in about ten minutes. This is Cena’s third match in three days, after he wrestled on both WWE live events over the weekend. Cena did not appear on this week’s Monday Night Raw. JOHN CENA ESTUVO EN RAW EN EL DARK MATCH!

John Cena Sticking Around WWE Longer Than Expected

One more time? There are very few stars in wrestling history on the same level as John Cena. While he certainly has his detractors, Cena is still one of the biggest stars in the world. Cena is back in WWE for another run with the company and is still feeling like a top draw. It is clear that he will not be around for very long, but now we do know one more date for him. WWE has announced that Cena will be in attendance for the September 10 SmackDown from Madison Square Garden in New York City. This is a change from the expected plan, which would see Cena’s final appearance at Summerslam on August 21. Cena is expected to report to Europe to begin a new movie shoot at some point in August. There is no word on what Cena will be doing on the show, or if he will be appearing on television. Cena has a long history in the Garden.

LOOK: Brock Lesnar At Music Festival With Different Look

He keeps mixing it up. Every now and then you see a wrestler who changes the game. There might be something about him which you just cannot ignore because they are different than anyone else. That is the case with a certain wrestler who is currently waiting to return to WWE, but he has been shaking things up a little bit while he is away from the ring. Brock Lesnar appeared at the Twin Cities Summer Jam in Shakopee, Minnesota over the weekend, including showing up in various photos. Lesnar is seen wearing a cowboy hat in the photos, taken by fans and with various local celebrities. Lesnar is also sporting the goatee that he was first seen with earlier this month in a video on the Butcher Brothers YouTube channel.

Former WWE Champion Has Garbage Thrown At Him For Winning World Title

•

You hate to see this. Wrestling fans are some of the most passionate in all of sports. While their energy and enthusiasm is a wonderful thing, sometimes they go to far. This was the case this past weekend, and garbage was a part of it. Over the weekend, at GCW: Homecoming night one, former WWE and current Impact Wrestling star Matt Cardona defeated Nick Gage in the main event to win the GCW World Championship. Gage had held the GCW World Championship for over 100 days. During the match, Ricky Shane Page’s faction, 44OH!, ran in and attacked Gage. Former GCW World Champion RSP ran in to stop the attack, and he and Gage fought them off. However, it ended up being a ruse as RSP gave Gage a low blow allowing Cardona to hit the Rough Ryder on Gage to win the title. Immediately after winning the title, the GCW fans threw garbage and other debris into the ring, including pizza cutters. Cardona, who wrestled as Zack Ryder in WWE, ran off leaving Gage in the ring in disappointment and in disb..

RUMOR: Details On WWE’s Return To Saudi Arabia This Year

•

Welcome back? WWE is the biggest wrestling promotion in the world and as a result, they are going to have their hands in as many different areas as anyone else. That opens up a lot of doors for the promotion and they have walked through most of them. As a result, WWE has been able to expand internationally. Now we know when they are heading somewhere else again. According to Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men podcast, WWE is planning to return to Saudi Arabia at some point in October, with Thursday October 21 as a possible date. This is assuming that there are no travel restrictions between the United States and Saudi Arabia in October. There is no word on the name of the show, though the company has traditionally presented Crown Jewel around this time of the year. No announcement has been made about any show in the country. WWE began running events in Saudi Arabia in 2018 as part of a ten year agreement with the Kingdom. The company would run two shows a year in Saudi Arabia, with the Kin..

WATCH: Roman Reigns vs. Samoa Joe From WWE Backlash 2018

•

When heavyweights collide. WWE has posted a new video to its YouTube channel in which they show the full match between Roman Reigns and Samoa Joe from WWE Backlash 2018. You can see the match in its entirety below: [This post contains video, click to play] From WWE.com: Joe ambushed Reigns before the bell and sent him crashing through the Spanish announce table with a Uranage, kicking off a strategy that began with Reigns trapped in holds that targeted his shoulders for minutes on end and culminated in a series of Coquina Clutch attempts that The Big Dog narrowly managed to avoid. Joe’s strategy was as rudimentary as it was effective. Even when Reigns landed a thunderous Spear, Joe was close enough to the ropes to stop the pinfall, and The Samoan Submission Machine only turned up the heat when he felt it was time to lock in his near-ironclad submission hold. When Joe finally applied the Clutch, grapevine legs and all, Reigns seemed to be drifting into unconsciousness before he ro..

Natalya Potentially Suffers Injury On Raw

•

That didn’t look good. WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Natalya appeared to have suffered a leg injury during tonight’s episode of Raw, during a match with Eva Marie and Doudrop. She and her partner, Tamina, were in the match, when Natalya appeared to suffer a right leg injury on either a roll-over or a foot stomp from Doudrop. Natalya tagged out and immediately had trouble putting weight on her right leg. The referee then apparently called an audible as Tamina took over, and after a distraction by Lilly on the big screen, hit a superkick on Eva for the pin to win. After the match, a ringside medic immediately helped Natalya to the back. Tamina joined the medic in helping Natalya, who was still unable to put weight on her right leg.

New Title Match Set For Summerslam

Keep the card going. There are a lot of ways to present a title match as you can come up with several different options. That is the case with WWE, as they have a lot of titles to choose from at any given time. Sometimes they can come up with a few different ideas here and there, and this time around they have dusted off one of the old classics for next month. This week’s Monday Night Raw opened with new Raw Women’s Champion Nikki Ash talking about how she overcame the odds to win the title. Former champion Charlotte and Rhea Ripley interrupted, saying they wanted the title back.

Vince McMahon Scripted TV Series Announced

He’s pretty interesting. There is no one in the wrestling world like Vince McMahon and that might be a great thing. McMahon is a lot of things, including the most powerful person in the wrestling world, but he does not have the cleanest past in the world.

WWE has announced that it will partner with Blumhouse Studios on a limited scripted series called “The United States Of America vs. Vince McMahon.” The series will focus on McMahon being charged with steroid distribution in 1994.

WWE RUMOR: More Changes May Be Coming For Karrion Kross

•

He may not be done yet. A debut is one of the most important parts of a wrestler’s career. If they do not come in hot, or at least respectable, it could make for a horrible problem to their career. WWE has a rather hit and miss history with this sort of thing and that was the case again last week. Now it seems that we might not be all the way to the end, and there may still be a chance. According to Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men Podcast, WWE has a planned direction for Karrion Kross and the loss in his debut was only the start of the angle. There is no word on where the angle is expected to go, though Hardy tested positive for the Coronavirus in the last few days, meaning that he will be forced to quarantine for two weeks. It is not clear if the angle will continue as Hardy quarantines. Kross is the reigning NXT Champion and the loss to Hardy was his first pinfall defeat at any level in WWE.

RUMOR: CM Punk Signing With AEW Shakes Up Daniel Bryan Plans

It did shake things up a bit. There have been a lot of wrestling stories taking place in the last few weeks and two of the biggest go hand in hand. This week, stories broke suggesting that both CM Punk and Daniel Bryan have either signed with AEW or are all but signed. That is the kind of thing that could change up the wrestling world but it has already shaken up AEW. According to Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net on the jaBROnies podcast, AEW’s plans for Bryan were changed when Punk was signed to the company. The original idea had been for Bryan to debut during the September 22 Grand Slam event in New York City. As a result, the plans for the show have been changed, as AEW is trying to come up with a solution to showcase both stars as well as possible while capitalizing on the buzz. Punk is a former multiple time WWE World Champion but has not wrestled a match since January 2014. While he has not wrestled, he did appear as an analyst for WWE Backstage on Fox Sports 1 starting in 2019. ..
