Sonya Deville Announces Engagement To Longtime Girlfriend

Love is in the air! People Magazine is reporting that Sonya Deville proposed to her longtime girlfriend Toni Cassano last week at a wine cellar cave in Towaco, New Jersey. Deville, whose real name is Daria Berenato, was in for a shock after Cassano said ‘yes’ to the proposal. Moments after giving her fianceé a custom-designed ring by Happy Jewelers in front of friends and family, she was shocked when Cassano pulled out an engagement ring of her own. From the article: “I proposed, then Toni’s like, ‘Grab my purse.’ And she pulls out a freaking ring box, and she’s like, ‘I’ve been carrying this around in my purse for four months. So whenever you proposed, I could give you a ring immediately back.’ “ “It truly was the biggest blur ever,” Cassano says of the romantic night. “All I remember is both of us shaking so bad.” Adds Bernato: “I could go on for days about the way I feel about this woman, I never knew love could feel so happy and safe all at the same time. I found my best frien..

Farewell? Sting Heavily Hints At Retiring Later This Year

He would know best. Retirement is a tricky situation in wrestling as it can be difficult for a wrestler to finally hang up their boots. The problem is that it can be so easy to come back for one more match or appearance, but some are able to go out on their own terms and know when to call it a career. Now a legend is saying that his career is not going to extend beyond this year. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WATCH: Max Caster Messes Up Rap During AEW Rampage Taping (And It’s Funny) AEW’s Sting was interviewed by D Magazine (Dallas, Texas) and revealed that his deal with the company expires at some point this year. Once it ends, “so will his time behind the face paint”, according to the article. There is no word on what Sting will be doing for his final match or if he has any plans for his retirement. Sting has been paired with Darby Allin since his debut with AEW in December 2020. Sting’s time in AEW has gone quite well. Check out how some of it has gone: [This post contains video, click..

LOOK: Man Wears WWE Title During Suspected Armed Robbery

A fashion accessory? WWE is the biggest and most powerful wrestling promotion in the world and to a lot of fans, it is the wrestling promotion. Several fans associate the industry with WWE and a lot of fans are going to be familiar with the company’s signature logo. Unfortunately the logo was involved in something rather negative earlier this week with police having to be involved. According to KWTX (CBS affiliate near Waco, Texas) in Temple, Texas, a man is wanted for suspicion of an armed robbery of a store. The man was filmed wearing a replica WWE Title upside down with a hood over his face and no shoes. The amount of money stolen was not reported and the suspect has yet to be apprehended. In the article, the suspect is described as a “WWE Champion”. Opinion: This is one of those things that you don’t see very often and it doesn’t make WWE look great. At the same time, the good part is that WWE isn’t directly involved as this is more about a suspect doing something that is more th..

Backstage News On Triple H’s Plans For WWE Roster

It’s time to shake things up again, but this time in a very different way. A new report from Fightful Select outlines some of the plans for the WWE roster now that Triple H has taken over for Vince McMahon and is now EVP of Talent Relations. According to the report, Triple H is just getting started, and a “feeling-out process” has taken place regarding talk of reshaping the roster. This includes adding more depth in the form of past WWE talent that has either been released or didn’t re-sign with the company. This concept began to unfold during this week’s WWE programming, as Dakota Kai, Iyo Sky, Karrion Kross and Scarlett all returned to the company. Other names to consider are Bray Wyatt, Johnny Gargano, John Morrison, Tegan Nox, and Tyler Breeze as they are WWE Superstars who are still believed to be free agents. We will continue to monitor this story and provide updates as they are made available to us. [h/t to Bleacher Report for providing content in this article] Editor’s Op..

Becky Lynch: “Having Triple H at the Helm of the Ship is Phenomenal”

The man has spoke. Becky Lynch was recently interviewed by ESPN as a part of a special article on the departure of Vince McMahon as CEO of WWE. She spoke on his departure as well as her thoughts on Triple H now being in charge of the company. Below are some comments from The Man: On Vince McMahon leaving WWE: “It is the dawning of a new era,” Becky Lynch, one of WWE’s top stars, told ESPN on Friday. “For me, it’s crazy and sad because everything I’ve ever known about WWE has always had Vince in charge, and we wouldn’t have WWE the way it is if it wasn’t for Vince. He’s somebody who believed in me and allowed me to do everything that I’ve done.” On Triple H being in charge of the company: “We have the opportunity to change some things that maybe weren’t so great that we didn’t love,” Lynch said to ESPN. “I think everybody’s very excited and optimistic because we know that the people in charge [are] some of the greatest minds in the business, you know. Having Triple H at the helm of..

Omos Reveals His One Of A Kind Medical Issues

That sounds worse. Wrestlers are larger than life characters with personalities that are often over the top and meant to be as big as possible. That can often come with bodies that are literally larger than most, as you see some wrestlers who dwarf most normal people. However, those wrestlers have their own issues, and now one of the biggest wrestlers ever has revealed some previous problems. During a recent appearance on the Out Of Character podcast, Monday Night Raw star Omos revealed that he had a brain tumor removed when he was 18 years old. Omos was playing college basketball at the time when an MRI revealed the tumor. As he was getting ready to have the tumor removed, he was diagnosed with partial Cushing’s Disease. Omos said that he was the first person ever recorded with a tumor on his pituitary gland, a brain tumor and Cushing’s Disease, which resulted in a medical journal article about his case. Opinion: What matters most is that Omos seems to have these issues cleaned up a..

BREAKING: WWE Vacates Titles, New Champions Crowned Next Week

We need someone new. Champions are some of the most important people in all of wrestling. Holding a title means something in the industry as it shows fans who the most important wrestlers are, as those shiny belts are easy to spot. Someone losing a title means a lot, and now that has taken place again, though this time it wasn’t inside of a wrestling ring. Last weekend, MSK (Nash Carter and Wes Lee) won the NXT Tag Team Titles for the second time, defeating the Creed Brothers and reigning champions Imperium. Earlier this week, Carter was released from the company following domestic violence allegations and the release of a photo of him impersonating Hitler. WWE has announced that the titles have officially been vacated, with new champions being crowned next week on NXT. No teams have been announced for the title match and MSK is not listed in the article. There is no word on Lee’s future in NXT. Opinion: You had to know this was coming and WWE didn’t have much of a choice. Either the..

Opinion: Everyone, Just Relax – 2022 Royal Rumble Edition

The 2022 Royal Rumble has come and gone, and with it, a number of people who are unhappy about how the event transpired. While some are complaining about the in-ring competition, the majority of the griping has to do with the booking of the show and how things didn’t go down as they thought that they should. This is where I come in. This article is the first of what I guarantee will be many in a series during my time at Wrestling Rumors. This new segment is called: Everyone, Just Relax. Side note, you can find the audio version of this article on The Hoots Podcast, of which new episodes are released every Thursday. [This post contains video, click to play] After this year’s Royal Rumble, naturally, Twitter exploded with messaging saying that “this was the worst show ever” and that “AEW is going to buy WWE in a few years”. However, if you just take a step back and think about things for a minute, you will realize that there is some long-term storytelling going on here that will pl..

Danhausen Debuts In AEW

Very nice, very evil. On tonight’s episode of Dynamite, former ROH star Danhausen made his debut with AEW. He appeared under the ring when Adam Cole tried to grab a chair to use in his Lights Out match with Orange Cassidy in the main event. You can see the video of the debut below: [This post contains video, click to play] Danhausen has been out of action since Halloween of 2021, when he suffered an injury during an independent event. His current plan is to be back to in-ring competition by February of this year. Editor’s Opinion: I have to be completely honest: I have absolutely no idea who this person is. However, in doing my research for writing this article, it would seem that he has developed a cult following, which I am intrigued of learning more about. Also, the reaction from the crowd when he made his debut was legitimate, which tells me that there is something more to this character. I hope that Danhausen has success in AEW and I am very interested in learning more about..

AEW Stars Mock WWE For Complaints About Violent Content

And now, the response. WWE and AEW have been rivals since the latter came into existence three years ago. AEW certainly has caught fire since then, with the company going from barely existing to the second biggest promotion in the world today. Both companies present themselves in different ways, and it seems WWE does not care for AEW’s style. Now it is time for AEW to fight back. Earlier this week, the Toronto Star published an article comparing the two companies. WWE sent in a statement for the article, criticizing AEW’s violent content while promoting its own family friendly content. The statement included a reference to a No DQ match between Tay Conti/Anna Jay vs. the Bunny/Penelope Ford, in which all four bled. Conti, Jay and the Bunny have all sent out photos on Twitter, showcasing the results of the violence in the match. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ? pic.twitter.com/lAw1cm5oVB — TAYNARA MELO (@TayConti_) January 15, 2022 ? pic.twitter.com/wjGyGOL4eQ — Anna Jay (@annajay___) Januar..

Not Their Style: WWE Trashes Violence On AEW Programming

I guess they aren’t fans. There are a lot of different ways to present a wrestling match and some of them are a bit more intense. Occasionally you will see a match get a lot more violent than others, which may or may not be a good thing. You will occasionally see bloodshed during a match, which is not everyone’s cup of tea. That was apparent this week. The Toronto Star has published an article comparing WWE and AEW programming. The article looks at the television ratings for WWE SmackDown and AEW Dynamite, noting that the numbers are getting closer and citing AEW’s edgier content. WWE sent in a statement for the piece, criticizing AEW’s content, particularly the street fight between the Bunny/Penelope Ford and Anna Jay/Tay Conti while promoting its own more family friendly product. Here is WWE’s statement: “If you look at the gory self-mutilation that bloodied several women in the December 31 event on TNT, it quickly becomes clear that these are very different businesses. We had an e..

Here’s What Was Originally Planned For The WWE Title At Day One

What could have been. Last weekend, WWE presented its first ever Day One event, marking what might be a new tradition for the company. The show did have a big card, but it was not the one that was originally advertised. The announced main event of Universal Champion Roman Reigns defending against Brock Lesnar did not happen due to Reigns contracting the Coronavirus. Lesnar wound up winning the WWE Title instead after being inserted into the match. Now we might know what was coming before the change. According to Dave Meltzer in an article for Sports Illustrated, the original plans for the WWE Title match at Day One would have called for Seth Rollins to win the title. There is no word on what would have been next for Rollins after he won the championship. In addition, the Reigns vs. Lesnar match would have featured Paul Heyman officially siding with Lesnar, which wound up taking place two days later on Monday Night Raw instead. It was a busy night. Check out how the match went down an..

SmackDown Star Asks For Help With Important Cause

That’s a worthy cause. With wrestling being so prevalent today, you can always find something to watch. It makes for some great viewing, but it also lets wrestling companies get a message out there rather easily. That can also be the case with individual wrestlers, and now one of them is doing something special as a wrestler is using his platform to help other people. SmackDown’s Top Dolla has sent out a tweet, announcing that he is holding his fifth annual canned food drive for Sarah’s House children’s homeless shelter. The drive is being held in Fort Meade, Maryland on November 19-21. Top Dolla’s tweet asked for dirt sheet sites that report on everything he said and try to make money off of his name with clickbait articles every week. Asking all Dirt Sheet websites that report on everything I say every week & try to make clickbait headlines to get publicity off my name to report that I’ll be having my 5th Annual Canned Food Drive for Sarah’s House children’s homeless shelter in For..

Nasty Injury Takes Place On AEW Dynamite, What We Know

Hopefully it isn’t too bad. One of the worst things you can see in a wrestling match is an injury. These things can take place at any time and they can range in severity as well as the amount of time they make someone miss. It can be a scary thing to see someone get hurt and that was the case again this week. Now we know a bit more about what happened and how bad it is. This week on AEW Dynamite, FTR’s Cash Wheeler was injured during a tag match against Santana and Ortiz. Wheeler was shoved off the top and his arm struck the buckle which connects the ring rope to the post. As a result, Wheeler grabbed his arm and went to be seen by the medical team, with Dax Harwood winning the match for FTR shortly thereafter. According to PWInsider.com, Wheeler suffered a “really bad cut” with no mention of a broken bone. He was treated and said to be ok, though there is no word on how much ring time he could miss. https://www.pwinsider.com/article/149186/cash-wheeler-injury-update.html?p=1 This c..

Tony Khan Discusses AEW’s Future, WCW Demise, More

Tony Khan was recently featured in by Forbes in an article about the rise of AEW. He discusses a number of topics, including the future of AEW, the demise of WCW, how the company is not yet profitable, and more. Below are some highlights from the interview: On the future of AEW and its place in the wrestling industry: “I don’t want to be the next ‘blank’ wrestling company of the past—fill in the blank,” Khan says of erstwhile promotions (Vince) McMahon has vanquished over the years. “We love wrestling of the past, wrestling of the present and wrestling of the future… That’s what gives us a great chance to retain and gain audience share.” “There’s no reason why there only needs to be one wrestling company,” Khan says, contradicting the act he put on in the AEW promo. “The wrestling business is hotter now than it’s been in a long time.” On WCW: “I’m glad that WCW failed because it created a vacancy for us to come in and succeed,” Khan says, “but it made it a fairly bleak period for..
