She Would Know: Missing WWE Star Says She Is Ready To Return, Unsure Why She Is Gone

February 3, 2023

She’s not pleased. There are all kinds of talented wrestlers on the WWE roster and it can be difficult to find something for everyone to do. As a result, you never know when someone can be left sitting on the sidelines for a long time. That can happen to any wrestler at any time and now it seems that it is happening to another star. She does not seem happy about it either. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: On The Card: WWE Announces Another WrestleMania 39 Match SmackDown star Aliyah has been absent from WWE television for over four months now with no mention of her whereabouts.

WATCH: Natalya Seems To Break Character At WWE Live Event (This Is Weird)

July 12, 2022

These things happen. Wrestling has a lot of moving parts to any show, but it always comes down to the idea of people in the ring together having a match. That is a very tricky thing to do while keeping each other safe and having things go as planned and sometimes something can go wrong. It seems that was the case over the weekend in something you do not see happen very often. A clip from a WWE live event in Sacramento, California over the weekend shows Liv Morgan defeating Natalya with her signature Oblivion. However, after the match ends, Natalya pops up, shouts at Morgan, and leaves. According to Sportskeeda.com, Natalya, in a since deleted tweet, responded to the video, saying that while she was breaking character, she was saying “THANKYOU” to Morgan. There is no word on what led to the situation. It’s certainly different.

WRESTLING RUMORS: WWE Trying To Mend Fences With Sasha Banks

June 30, 2022

Call it a hope spot. There are a lot of people in WWE and several of them have been around the company for a long time. At some point though, everyone is going to have to leave for one reason or another, with some of them not getting to leave on their own terms. Unfortunately some of these splits can be a bit nasty, but WWE seems to want to fix up a recent issue. Last month, Naomi and Sasha Banks walked out on WWE, taking the Women’s Tag Team Titles with them. As a result, the titles have been vacated and neither Banks nor Naomi have been seen since. However, according to Wrestlinginc.com’s Raj Giri, while Banks was released on June 10, it has not been announced by WWE. The release was handled by the Vice President of Business And Legal Affairs for Talent rather than then Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis. The company is also said to be trying to smooth things over, but it is not clear what this would mean for either Banks or Naomi. I deleted the original tweet since there wa..

WRESTLING RUMORS: WWE May Have Spoiled Major Title Change

May 22, 2022

Can we get a warning next time? There is a lot going on at any given point in WWE and sometimes the company builds on the idea of wondering what they are going to do next. In theory, this is going to draw interest in what is going on and there can be some great drama as a result. WWE was trying to do that this week but they might have accidentally spoiled it in advance. The main event of this week’s SmackDown was a Tag Team Title unification match between the Usos and RKBro. The Usos would win the match to unify the titles, becoming the first sole WWE Tag Team Champions since 2016. However, WWE’s United Kingdom Facebook page may have accidentally spoiled the result. An image has appeared on Twitter, showing a since deleted post from the account with the Usos holding both sets of titles before SmackDown began. The post was since restored, though no such photo of RKBro was ever posted. WWE UK Facebook Page accidentally posted this and deleted it immediately. Oh Boyy ? pic.twitter.com..

Uh…..About That: NIkki Bella Is Looking Forward To Vader’s WWE Hall Of Fame Speech

March 30, 2022

Oh dear. This weekend, WWE will induct the latest class into the company’s Hall of Fame. That is one of the more nights of the year as WWE gets to honor their legends and allows them to speak about their careers. The audience is a who’s who of WWE wrestlers, but there are going to be some generation gaps here and there. It seems that is the case again between two Hall of Famers. In a since deleted video from the Bella Twins YouTube channel, Nikki Bella said she was looking forward to Vader taking the stage and giving his WWE Hall of Fame induction speech. However, Vader passed away in 2018 and is being inducted posthumously. There is no word on who will be accepting the induction on Vader’s behalf. The Bella Twins were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as part of the class of 2020. Opinion: While I don’t think Bella meant anything malicious by what she said, this doesn’t exactly make for the best visual. At the end of the day, Vader passing away is something that she probably should..

AEW Seems To Release A Star Without Telling Him

March 2, 2022

Maybe he missed the memo? Wrestling is not exactly like other sports, as the show just kind of keeps going. With no off season, there is not exactly a beginning or end to anything. Sometimes wrestlers will stick around longer than others, but it can be very surprising to see someone leave a promotion out of nowhere. That seems to be the case again, with the wrestler himself being surprised. Chavo Guerrero debuted in AEW in 2021 and served as Andrade El Idolo’s manager before their association ended in September of that year. Guerrero left the company to continue his work on Young Rock Season 2, with the expectation that he would be back in the company once filming ended. However, Guerrero has since removed Guerrero from their roster page. According to Wrestlinginc.com, Guerrero sent and then deleted a tweet showing his surprise, saying: “That’s news to me! I guess having @TonyKhan telling me to go film Young Rock Season 2, & my job will be waiting for me when I’m done, didn’t mean mu..

AEW’s Sammy Guevara Clears Up Rumors Regarding The End Of His Engagement

December 20, 2021

It shouldn’t have to be said. Wrestlers are a weird breed as they are both full time television stars but also have to find a way to balance things out in their personal lives. That can be rather tricky to pull off, as sometimes the lines become more than a bit blurred. Unfortunately that seems to be the case again and a wrestler has had to shut down a few theories. Earlier this week, AEW TNT Champion Sammy Guevara announced that his engagement with his fiance Pam Nizio had come to an end. Later, Guevara had to issue another statement to Twitter, clarifying that the engagement ended in October and saying that it had nothing to do with anyone else. This comes as AEW’s Tay Conti has also announced a split from her husband, leaving to online speculation that the two situations were somehow intertwined.

AEW’s Darby Allin Gets SHUT DOWN By NXT Star In Bizarre Twitter Spat

December 18, 2021

That’s a bit harsh from Allin. Wrestlers have a tricky time when it comes to characters, as their job is to make you believe that they are something they very well might not be. That is harder than it sounds but they have to figure out a way to make it work. It can be easier if the character ties into someone’s career, but that is not always the case. This time, it seems that is not ok with a current star. AEW’s Darby Allin sent a since deleted tweet to NXT’s Cora Jade, saying that skating is part of his life rather than just part of his “fake character on TV”. Jade, who rides a skateboard to the ring in NXT, responded that “being a good person with no abuse allegations against me is a huge part of my life and not just a character I play on TV.” This is in reference to SpeakOut allegations against Allin which were made last year. Allin has not since responded to Jade. Cora Jade really left Darby Allin in the dirt, eh? pic.twitter.com/ipxLw57bt2 — Just Talk Wrestling (@JustTalkWrestl..

WRESTLING RUMORS: Top Wrestling Couple Splits Up

December 4, 2021

So much for that? Romantic relationships are some of the most complicated things to pull off in wrestling, as so much of a wrestler’s time is spent on the road. That does not exactly make it easy for the people involved to see each other and that can make things more complicated. Several wrestlers wind up in relationships with other wrestlers, but that no longer seems to be the case with two of them. According to Bodyslam.net, Charlotte and Andrade El Idolo have ended their romantic relationship. This comes after El Idolo has stopped following Charlotte on social media and has deleted all photos of Charlotte from his own social media accounts. While it is not known why, Charlotte is said to have been the one to end the relationship, which was not mutual. The two have been dating since February 2019 and became engaged on January 1, 2020.

Former WWE Star Drops Hint About Coming To AEW Soon

October 4, 2021

He would work. There have been a lot of wrestlers leaving WWE over the last few months, some of whom have left the company against their will. That can make for some major shifts in the wrestling world, but it can also be rather interesting as you wait to see where these wrestlers wind up. Another former WWE star has dropped a major hint about where he might be going. This week’s edition of AEW Dynamite will feature the return of the Casino Ladder Match, which will see several wrestlers split into groups, who will enter the match at set times. There will also be a surprise entrant designated as the Joker, who will enter last. According to 411mania.com, former WWE star Buddy Matthews, better known as Buddy Murphy, tweeted out an image of joker. However, the tweet has since been deleted. Since his release from WWE, Matthews has wrestled a pair of independent matches but has not announced a signing with any promotion. AEW could be getting a heck of a star.

WWE Has Already Ended A Controversial New NXT Character

September 24, 2021

I hope you took pictures. New characters are introduced on wrestling shows all of the time. You often see someone new added into the fold and it can be very fun to see where they go and how long it takes them to get there. Some of them are a lot more successful than others, occasionally due to outside forces. That was the case this week, as a new character is already done. This week on NXT, Joe Gacy introduced a new character who was built around being politically correct. This included saying that the ring was a safe space and he did not need to use his male privilege to win matches. The character received attention from the New York Post and FOX News over poking fun at the “woke left”. According to Wrestlinginc.com, WWE has since deleted all references to the character from its website and social media, with Gacy doing the same on his own accounts. There is no word if the character will return in any form in the future. There are other ways to present Gacy. Check out what else he c..

It was a unique bet. There have been some major changes to the wrestling world in recent months and a lot of them have been very interesting.

Fan And Reporter Says He Was Targeted By NXT Management At Taping

July 30, 2021

That might not go well. The Coronavirus pandemic shook up the wrestling world in several ways and things are only starting to get back to normal. WWE has allowed fans back into their arenas for major shows for the last few events and NXT has allowed a small group of fans since the beginning of the summer. Now it seems that one fan in particular will not be around for the time being. Wrestling Observer Newsletter correspondent JJ Williams has posted a series of tweets saying that he was “singled out” and removed from recent NXT TV tapings due to working for the Newsletter. Williams is a regular at NXT tapings and has reported on them since 2014. According to Williams, his ID was photographed and all of the photos he had taken were deleted. He was also told that his social media was being monitored. As a result, Williams has said that he will no longer be attending NXT tapings.

Marty Jannetty May Have Admitted To Murder On Social Media

August 5, 2020

You have to be careful about what you put out there. Marty Jannetty has had an odd presence in the world over the last few years; a few years ago he asked if it was OK to have sex with someone that wasn’t her biological daughter after it was proved that she wasn’t by a DNA test. In his latest escapade, he may have just done something worse. According to a report from SB Nation, Jannetty may have admitted to committing a murder when he was 13 years old. In a post that has since now been deleted, he alleges that he was targeted by a man when he was 13 years old, who he believed was going to sexually assault him. Jannetty then killed the man, and dumped his body in the Chattahoochie River, presumably in, or near Columbus, Georgia. Below is an image of the post. Note that there is inappropriate language, and a homophobic slur was edited out of the original by SB Nation: Check out Jannetty’s most famous moment in professional wrestling: We will continue to monitor this story and prov..

Velveteen Dream Might Be In Trouble

December 22, 2018

Is it a bad dream? Over the last few years, few superstars have risen faster than the Velveteen Dream. He’s gone from what felt like a joke of a talent to a heck of a performer and one of the most popular heroes in NXT. His work has been incredible and he has more charisma than he knows what to do with, but there might be a bit of a roadblock on his path towards the top of NXT. According to Dave Meltzer of F4Wonline.com by way of NoDQ.com, Velveteen Dream may be in trouble over a recent string of tweets that he sent out and then deleted, where he complained about not being called up to the main roster yet. Velveteen Dream has tweeted some controversial statements and since deleted them before so it is likely the subject that got him in trouble this time.

Matt Hardy & Bray Wyatt Respond To The Rumors Of Wyatt Turning On Hardy And Becoming The Leader Of 'SAnitY'

The "Woken" bond soon to be "Broken"? Dating back to late 2017 Bray Wyatt & Matt Hardy have been feuding with one another and Bray Wyatt is the man responsible for bringing the unforsaken vessel of Matt Hardy out to the WWE Universe.
