Needs A New Spot: AEW Star Dropped From Current Storyline
She’ll need something new. With so many wrestlers on the AEW roster and so little television time, it can be difficult to find something for everyone to do. One of the most common solutions is to put wrestlers together into groups so they can be on screen at the same time. Occasionally changes still need to be made though and that seems to be the case again. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: There He Is: Explanation Behind Eddie Kingston Quitting AEW Revealed The top storyline in the AEW women’s division is a feud between the AEW originals and the division’s newcomers. The originals, comprised of Britt Baker and Jamie Hayter, have been fighting against Saraya and Toni Storm, but their usual friend Rebel has been missing. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Rebel is no longer being used in the story. Since Baker and Hayter are being presented as babyfaces, there is no need for them to have a third woman. There is no word on what Rebel will be doing next. Rebel fits in well with the ..

To the other side. With so much television time to fill in WWE, it can be easy for some of the company’s stars to start feeling stale. At some point a change needs to be made and that can be accomplished in a few different ways. One of the easiest is to turn someone either from good to bad or vice versa, and it seems that we saw that take place earlier this week. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: It Fits: Important Details On Next WWE Event In Saudi Arabia, Possible AEW Competition Following the February 10 SmackDown, WWE released a video of Santos Escobar and Rey Mysterio backstage after they both took part in a fatal four way. The two talked about respect and exchanged masks. This week, the two were backstage when Rhea Ripley and Rey’s son Dominik interrupted and insulted Rey. Escobar defended Rey and seemed to set up a match with Dominik. This would indicate that Escobar is moving further towards a full babyface turn, which would be a first in his WWE career.

WATCH: Brock Lesnar Messes With A Kid On Monday Night Raw
That wasn’t nice. Wrestlers have quite the difficult job, as they are required to make fans either love or hate them while realizing that what they are seeing might not be on the up and up. That is a tricky situation, but there are ways that villains can do various evil things which will drive fans crazy. That was the case this week at Monday Night Raw, but things were a little backwards. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: They Are? Major Change On The Usos’ Elimination Chamber Status During his most recent run with WWE, Brock Lesnar has been a babyface for an extended period of time in several years. This has included wearing a cowboy hat and speaking to the fans when he comes to the ring.

This aired during Lesnar’s entrance on the television broadcast. He might need some work. Check out Lesnar messing with a kid and his recent efforts: [This post contai..

REPORT: Tony Khan Demanded Specific Finish to MJF, Jon Moxley Match at AEW Full Gear
After months of speculation, MJF won the AEW World Championship on Saturday night at AEW Full Gear. Since his return, MJF has been pushed as an emerging babyface with a “clean victory’ over Jon Moxely being a point of pride for his character. However, William Regal slid his own brass knuckles to MJF for him to take another shortcut to the richest prize in AEW. An angle that had been heavily foreshadowed on AEW television for weeks, especially since the MJF/Regal confrontation promo. While the swerve of the storyline was obvious, the fun of the situation is the questions that the AEW fanbase is asking about what happens next. Related: MJF Wins AEW World Championship; William Regal Turns Heel at AEW Full Gear After the PPV, Dave Melter reported on F4Wonline that Tony Khan was the one who put the final angle together.

MJF Wins AEW World Championship; William Regal Turns Heel at AEW Full Gear
The AEW World Championship match with Jon Moxely defending the title against MJF was a rare instance of being so unpredictable that anything could happen. There was speculation after Wednesday’s final segment on Dynamite, which had William Regal in the middle of the frame between MJF and Jon Moxely. Based on the ending on Dynamite, a lot of fans assumed that William Regal would be the determining factor in whoever won tonight. After the riveting promo between MJF and Regal about their past, it seemed that AEW was building MJF into the great babyface champion the company needs for the future, but he’s aligned himself with the devil. At AEW Full Gear: William Regal just revealed himself as the devil that was always standing by Jon Moxely’s side It started towards the end of the match when MJF teased using the ring to get the win, which led Regal to come down to the ring.

WRESTLING RUMORS: Top WWE Star Teases Babyface Turn On Monday Night Raw
That’s a big change. There are a lot of ways to change things up for a wrestler, some of which can be quite drastic. While that can include a complete repackaging with almost everything being changed, the more common answer is to turn them from either good to bad or bad to good. While it might not be the case in full, we might have been seeing quite the major change. This week on Monday Night Raw, United States Champion Seth Rollins defeated Austin Theory. During the match, Rollins appeared with his old two colored hair style and also wrestled a cleaner style without using his usual cheating methods. While not confirmed, this could suggest that Rollins is shifting more towards a babyface turn after years as a heel. There is no word on WWE making a full fledged turn at the moment. Opinion: I’m not sure what to think about this, as while Rollins is someone who can work well in either style, the idea of such a sudden change is a little jarring. Rollins has been such a despicable villain..

AEW Stable Turns On Its Employer In Surprise Twist
They’re already done. AEW has quite a few stars on its roster and as a result, several of them have been grouped together into various stables. There have been all kinds throughout the company’s history and many have gone in different directions. It means something when one of them does something big and that certainly took place this week as well. This week on AEW Dynamite, Maxwell Jacob Friedman told the Firm to stay away from Jon Moxley before Full Gear. Following Moxley’s defeat of Penta El Cero Miedo, the Firm attacked Moxley, leading to Friedman coming to the ring and firing them as his stable on retainer. The Firm then beat Friedman up and put him through a table to end the show. It is not clear if this marks a full babyface turn for Friedman. Opinion: That was certainly a way to go for the story and I’m still not sure how it is going to wind up going. Friedman continues to be one of the most interesting people in all of wrestling and I want to see what he is going to be doing..

It is hard enough for the fans, but there are also internal rankings for the wrestler with the company having the stars ranked in order of importance. There has now been a change on one of the rosters as a star has returned and made an immediate impact. Bray Wyatt made his return to WWE after over a year’s absence at Extreme Rules and has since become a full time member of the SmackDown roster.

Wyatt is also said to be the #1 merchandise seller on WWE Shop.

WATCH: Bayley Squares Off With Fan At WWE Live Event
That’s some quality villainy. For the most part, wrestlers are divided into groups of babyfaces and heels. The heels are there to make fans angry at them and to get the fans cheering for the babyfaces to give them what they deserve. That can be accomplished in a variety of ways and now we saw one of the better methods this weekend at a non-televised events. A video has been released to Twitter showing a match between Bayley and Bianca Belair at a recent WWE live event in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

That’s a good reason. AEW has a very deep roster with all kinds of stars up and down the ranks. There are several benefits to having that kind of talent but there are also issues that come up. One of the problems is that if someone is gone for any length of time, they can be forgotten in a hurry. That might have been the case with one of the company’s stars, but he has given a very good reason. Shawn Spears returned to AEW TV this week after missing five months. Following this week’s Rampage main event, where Spears got the pin, Spears addressed the crowd, announcing that he had missed time due to the death of his mother. However, on Mother’s Day, Spears was able to tell her that he and his wife would be having a baby boy. Spears went on to thank the crowd for showing up and promised that AEW would be back.

AEW Star Makes Surprise Return After Four Month Absence
Welcome home. There are a lot of ways to bring a wrestler back after time away from the company and one of the best is as a surprise partner. That is something that can do well on its own but there are ways to sweeten it even more. Bringing someone back in the right place can make it even better and that is what took place this week to some very positive result. This week, AEW made its Canadian debut with a show in Toronto. During the show, the Embassy challenged FTR to a match later in the week on Rampage, with FTR bringing out Toronto’s Shawn Spears to be their partner. Spears has not wrestled since May 25 after being injured. There is no word on if this is a full on babyface turn for Spears or just a one off due to being in his hometown. Opinion: This was a well done setup and the place did go nuts for Spears’ TEN entrance. That is the kind of thing that had some thought put into it and I’m curious to see what happens when Spears is given a chance to shine in a different way. It m..

WWE Hall Of Famer Rips Sami Zayn For Trusting Roman Reigns
He isn’t a fan. There are a lot of things going on in WWE at the moment but the top story continues to be the Bloodline. Headed by Roman Reigns, the stable has dominated WWE for well over a year now and there is nothing to suggest that it will be stopping. The team has grown in recent weeks, but one legend does not seem pleased with the group’s new honorary member. Earlier this month, Sami Zayn was made an official honorary member of the Bloodline, as Reigns gave him an “Honorary Uce” shirt. During an appearance on the SmackDown Low Down, WWE Hall of Famer gave an in-character interview where he said the Bloodline does not respect Zayn and called him a waste of skin. Lawler also said that when Zayn had no shirt on, he looked “like one of those baby birds that just fell out of the next and has no feathers yet.” Zayn has not responded to Lawler’s comments. Opinion: Lawler is the person you call if you need an over the top statement like this and he did his job well in this case. Zayn i..

WWE Has Two Possible Reasons For Pushing WWE Star Again
She’s filling in the gap. WWE has a lot of talented wrestlers on its roster and the company can have a hard time finding something for everyone to do. One of the easiest ways to fix the problem is to have some of the wrestlers sit on the sidelines, which can be the case for a variety of reasons. That has taken place again at the moment and now we know a bit more about what happened. As previously reported, WWE’s Aliyah is currently injured but is expected to be back soon. In her absence, Shotzi has been helping Raquel Rodriguez, Aliyah’s normal partner. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the substitution has been made to either have Shotzi become Rodriguez’s new partner, or to simply turn Shotzi into a babyface. Shotzi and Rodriguez have not teamed together yet and Aliyah could be back as soon as this week. Opinion: This is something that feels like killing a few birds with one stone, as it allows Rodriguez to have a new partner while also giving Shotzi something to do. ..

Switch em up. WWE is going through a lot of behind the scenes changes and that means we might be in for some changes in front of the camera as well. There are a lot of things that could be improved by a few changes and some of those could make things a good deal more interesting.

Following the win, the two of them talked about how hard they had worked to get here.
