Uh Oh? Bray Wyatt Misses Weekend MSG WWE Live Event, Not Around As Much Lately
That might be something. We are less than three weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and that means the biggest stars in the company are going to be on display in some of the show’s top stories. It would make sense to have them around as often as possible, but now one of the most well known names in WWE today seems to be missing in action, both from television and from a live event.

Flashback: Bayley Seemingly Special Backstage Moment In Tweet To Trish Stratus
That’s a special moment. While wrestling is scripted and the results are known ahead of time, there are certain things about it that are more realistic than others. At the end of the day, these wrestlers are out there doing their jobs in front of millions of people. That can make for some tricky situations as they try to do their work while keeping their minds right. Sometimes that needs a boost, and that was the case in an infamous moment. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Not Yours: WWE Facing Possible Legal Action Over New Nickname Back at WrestleMania 35 in 2019, Bayley and Sasha Banks lost the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles. This reportedly led to a situation where the two threw a fit, including rolling around on the floor of the locker room while complaining about their creative direction. Bayley has tweeted a photo of herself and Trish Stratus, talking about how Stratus talked to “us” after the loss, revealing secrets of her personal life, the business and her strengths and weaknesses.

Double Special: WWE Legend Returns To Help Crown New Champions On Monday Night Raw
And NEW! Title changes can mean the world for a championship as it can breathe new life into the title’s status. Occasionally something just needs to be changed and that can make for a big moment.

He’s In Charge: Former WWE Champion Set To Host WrestleMania 39
It’s a gig. WrestleMania has evolved so much over the years that it is almost nothing like what it was when it first started. The show has gone from little more than a really souped up live event to a stadium filling event that takes place over two nights. Things have gotten so much bigger that it needs someone to keep track of them all, which is what we will have again this year. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Monster Fight: New Match Officially Set For WrestleMania 39 This week on Monday Night Raw, the Miz was announced as the host of WrestleMania 39. The announcement came via the envelope that Miz’s wife Maryse gave him last week. After making the announcement, Miz was attacked by Seth Rollins and left laying. WrestleMania has had a host for the last several years, with names such as Hulk Hogan, Alexa Bliss, Bayley and the New Day serving in the role. It is a tradition.

WATCH: Bayley Attends Mercedes Mone’s First New Japan Match, Helps Lead Cheers
She’s a friend. There have been several teams throughout the years in WWE and some of them develop quite the friendship during their time together. Every so often you will see that friendship continue after the wrestlers leave a promotion, but it is much rarer to see it continue when one star is in a different promotion entirely. That was on display over the weekend.

Slight Shift: WWE Reportedly Changed Plans For Trish Stratus’ Return, Still Set For Comeback
Yeah she’ll do. With WrestleMania 39 just over a month away, WWE is starting to put together some of its plans for the biggest show of the year. That can include a variety of changes, including bringing in some names from the past for special appearances. It seems that WWE had to scrap such a plan for one reason or another, but now we know more of what they had in mind.

Stratus is still expected to return, though the planned match for WrestleMania 39 still calls for Damage Ctrl to defend the Women’s Tag Team Titles against Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler.

Monday Night Raw Date: February 13, 2023 Location: Barclays Center, New York City, New York Commentators: Corey Graves, Kevin Patrick It is the go home show for the Elimination Chamber and that means we need to finalize everything for the red half of the event. We should be in for some hard pushes, including the contract signing between Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar. There is also the Lita return last week to deal with so let’s get to it. Here is Becky Lynch, with Adam Pearce, for a chat. Becky is happy to be here and says she even dressed spiffy for us. She thanks Lita for her help last week but realizes that she needs a path to Wrestlemania. That sounds like something to do with a title to her, so she wants in the Elimination Chamber. Cue Bayley, who says she should be in the Chamber, because Lita CHEATED last week. That match should be stricken from the record book, which sends Bayley and Becky into an argument over Wrestlemania credentials. Bayley says Becky lost in her Wrestle..

RUMOR KILLER On Mercedes Mone’s New Japan Payday
She’s worth it? One of the bigger moments of the wrestling year so far was the debut of Mercedes Mone, formerly known as Sasha Banks during her time in WWE, in New Japan Pro Wrestling. This was Mone’s first wrestling appearance in about seven months after walking out on WWE. It was a big acquisition for New Japan but now we know a little something else about the appearance.

Jericho refuted the claim, saying that he was never given a guaranteed amount per appearance and was paid according to the show’s revenue. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the rumor, which has begun circulating again, is inaccurate, as Mone is not making as much as Jericho.

That’s Special: Bayley And Becky Lynch Receive Special Honor From WWE
That’s a different way to go. Women’s wrestling has come a very long way in WWE in recent years, to the point where it is now a major, serious part of any WWE event. That is a lot more than most fans would have believed to be possible and a lot of that is due to a core group of wrestlers who have made that much of an impact. Now two of those women are receiving quite the special treatment.

Take Your Time: NXT Star To Miss TV Time After Violent Attack
She might need the break. There are a variety of reasons for a wrestler to be off of television and some of them are a lot less serious than others. While there is always the chance that someone is going to be missing due to an injury, there is also the chance that they are going to be gone due to a storyline. The latter seems to be the situation here, as you won’t be seeing a wrestler for a bit.

It’s A Matter Of Time: Interesting Detail On Lita’s WWE Return
They had a plan for that. We are coming up on WrestleMania 39 but there is one more major stop before we get out to Los Angeles. That would be Elimination Chamber, which is going to need quite the lineup of its own. WWE has already started setting things up for the show, and it now seems that they had planned to get the ball rolling on one of the bigger matches even sooner than expected. This week on Monday Night Raw, Lita made a surprise return to help Becky Lynch defeat Bayley, who had Damage Ctrl assisting her. Soon after, a report came out saying that this was to set up a six woman tag at Elimination Chamber, also involving Trish Stratus. According to Wrestling Observer Live, Lita helping Lynch was the original plan for the previous week at Raw XXX, when the Lynch vs. Bayley cage match was canceled due to timing issues.

Please Don’t Be Bad: WWE Star May Have Suffered An Injury
That could be serious. There are all kinds of injuries in wrestling and you never know when you are going to see someone put on the shelf for any amount of time. Seeing an injury of any kind is a bad thing as you don’t know when someone might be back in the ring.
