He Would Know: Edge Calls 36 Year Old Raw Wrestler Today’s Rated-R Superstar

That is some high praise. There are several different factors that go into making a wrestler feel like a big star. While in-ring abilities and presentation are important, there are other things that can help a lot, including the proper nickname. Almost every big time wrestler has had one over the years and now one of the most prominent of all time sees it in use for another star. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Missing Out Of Action: Update On WWE Status Of 39 Year Old Former Champion During an appearance on WWE’s After The Bell podcast, Edge said that he saw Seth Rollins as the “Rated-R Superstar of now”, playing off of Edge’s moniker of the Rated R Superstar. Edge made it clear that Rollins has carved his own path and done his own thing, but compared to rosters of previous years, Edge sees Rollins fitting that mold. Edge and Rollins feuded in 2021, including facing off inside Hell In A Cell. He might be onto something. Check out the two of them on their own and facing off: [This post cont..

Oh No: Former Impact Wrestling Star Arrested For Violating Order of Protection Involving Wife

That’s not good. There are all kinds of wrestlers in the world today, several of whom have been seen in a variety of promotions. It can be interesting to see where someone goes after they have some success in one place, but unfortunately there are times when someone goes through a problem that is more important than wrestling. That appears to be the situation again and now legal issues are included. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Switch? Speculation Over WWE Possibly Dropping WrestleMania Feud At The Last Minute According to the Clarksville (Tennessee), Today, former Impact Wrestling star Crimson, real name Anthony Mayweather, was arrested on March 8 for violating an order of protection. Mayweather sent several texts messages to his wife and called his juvenile son. These actions violate an order stemming from an incident in 2016 when Mayweather was arrested for headbutting his wife. Mayweather was arrested on March 8 and released on bond later in the day. Mayweather wrestled in Impact Wrest..

Switch? Speculation Over WWE Possibly Dropping WrestleMania Feud At The Last Minute

A totally different way to go. With less than three weeks to go before WrestleMania 39, there is only so much time left to get everything set for the show. That can make for some last minute problems, especially if something comes up that causes an issue. It’s possible that is the case again, and it could have a rather big impact on what we are seeing at WrestleMania. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Try Again: Update On WWE Pitching WrestleMania 39 Ideas To Steve Austin One of the bigger wrestling stories at the moment is the status of Bray Wyatt. While Wyatt has reportedly been dealing with a medical issue, Wyatt has been dealing with Bobby Lashley in recent weeks. However, on Monday, Lashley sent out a tweet talking about how he had worked too had and is willing to face anyone at WrestleMania. There was no mention of Wyatt, suggesting that WWE is moving on to something else for the WrestleMania match. This is NOT seen as a fact but rather speculation at this point. I’ve worked too hard to ..

Monday Night Raw Results – March 13, 2023

Monday Night Raw Date: March 13, 2023 Location: Amica Mutual Pavilion, Providence, Rhode Island Commentators: Kevin Patrick, Corey Graves We have six major TV shows left before Wrestlemania and there is still some work to do. Most of the matches and stories are already set but there are a least a few things that need to be finalized. There is a good chance that some of those will be covered, or at least addressed, tonight so let’s get to it. Here is Edge to get things going. He loves that kind of reaction from the crowd but wants to get straight to the point. Edge calls out Finn Balor so here is the full Judgment Day. Edge says that Balor’s request for a Wrestlemania match is on, which Balor appreciates. With that out of the way, Edge recaps the feud and says he doesn’t have time to deal with all of these people anymore. That’s why at Wrestlemania, he wants Hell in a Cell. Balor says Hell couldn’t handle his demons so they’re on for Wrestlemania. Judgment Day storms the ring and the..

It’s On: Hell In A Cell Match Set For WrestleMania 39

That’s a big one. We are less than three weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and the show is already starting to come together. There are several matches already set for the show but with two nights to fill, a lot more will need to be done. This can include matches that are not held under your typical rules, and now another one has been added to the card with some of the biggest stipulations WWE has to offer. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Uh Oh? Bray Wyatt Misses Weekend MSG WWE Live Event, Not Around As Much Lately For most of the last year, Edge has been involved in a feud with the Judgment Day, often with only his wife Beth Phoenix helping him. Last month, Finn Balor challenged Edge to a match at WrestleMania and this week, Edge accepted. After saying yes, Edge said that he wanted the match to be inside Hell In A Cell, with Balor accepting. This will be the third Hell In A Cell match in WrestleMania history and the first since WrestleMania 32 in 2016. They have something to live up to. Chec..

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. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Flashback: Bayley Seemingly Special Backstage Moment In Tweet To Trish Stratus According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Bray Wyatt did not wrestle at this weekend’s WWE live event at Madison Square Garden. Wyatt was scheduled to take part in a match and in a battle royal, with Braun Strowman replacing him. It turns out that Wyatt was not at this week’s SmackDown either. There is no word on why Wyatt is out of action. Wyatt has been feuding with Bobby Lashley though no match has been announced yet. Wyatt has been busy as of late. Check out his recent time on WWE TV: [This post contains vi..

LOOK: WWE Star Shows Off Remarkable Physical Transformation

That is some work. There are all kinds of things that go into making a wrestler feel like a star and one of the biggest is their physical appearance. It can be rather impressive to see how much someone can change their physique over the years and how much work they have to put into the process. Now a WWE star is showing just how impressive his change has been. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WRESTLING RUMORS: Trish Stratus Planned For Major WWE Feud Former WWE Universal Champion and current WWE star Braun Strowman has tweeted out a photo showing his physique from ten years ago compared to do. Strowman captions the photo by calling it a “decade of dedication” and using the hashtag “itsalifestyle” to explain the transformation.

What a decade of dedication looks like!!!! #ItsALifestyle #MonsterOfAllMonsters pic.twitter.com/qMaBWGWNle — The Monster of all Monsters (@Adamscherr99) March 9, 2023 He is a ..

WRESTLING RUMORS: AEW Finalizing Plans For Third Weekly Television Show

Another. We are coming up on the four year anniversary of AEW’s first event with Double Or Nothing 2019. The company hit the ground running and has gone on to become the second biggest wrestling promotion in the world.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WRESTLING RUMORS: Trish Stratus Planned For Major WWE Feud According to the Mat Men podcast, AEW and Warner Brothers Discovery are finalizing an agreement for a third weekly AEW television show, which would run for an hour on Saturdays.

WRESTLING RUMORS: Trish Stratus Planned For Major WWE Feud

That would be a different way to go. Legends can do a lot of good things in wrestling as they offer a variety of unique opportunities that regular stars cannot pull off. It can mean a lot to have a legend pop up in the right spot and that is still the case today in WWE. This time around, we might be in for a major story involving a past star mixing it up with a current top star. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: They’re The Ones: The Usos Become First Team Ever To Reach This WWE Milestone Last month, Trish Stratus made a surprise return to help Lita and Becky Lynch win the Women’s Tag Team Titles. The three are now set for a six woman tag against Damage CTRL at WrestleMania 39. According to WRKD Wrestling on Twitter, the current plan is for Stratus to turn on Lynch and feud with her throughout the summer, leading to a match between the two at Summerslam. There is no word on when the turn will take place. The long term plan, as of this moment, is that Trish Stratus will turn heel and work a pro..

A Trust Issue: How John Cena Earned Backstage Heat For Violating Trust

It would make people mad. There have been a lot of rivalries over the years in WWE and some of them have gone on for a very long time. Those stories are often the ones that are the most remembered, as individual parts will stick out in fans’ minds more than anything else. Now we are hearing more about one such incident, which turned out to be quite the ordeal backstage. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: She’s Gone: WWE Star Reportedly Leaves Company, Return To The Ring Set The most recent episode of A&E’s Rivals series focused on the Rock vs. John Cena feud and included a section on Cena calling out the Rock for having his promo written on his arm. This was described as creating a “disconnect” between the two of them. Natalya also spoke about the incident, saying that she felt real tension backstage between Cena and Rock, saying the two men couldn’t even be in the same room. Cena and Rock would split their two match WrestleMania series at WrestleMania 28 and 29. The two of them did have chemis..

It’s Over: Six Month Old Streak Snapped On Monday Night Raw

It had to happen at some point. Wrestling is a weird sport in that while wins and losses matter, the results are planned in advance. What makes it more interesting is that fans can get behind the idea of a wrestler winning over and over, as it makes them seem like a bigger star. Every wrestler has to lose at some point though, and now one of the winning streaks has been broken. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WATCH: WWE And AEW Stars Reunite In New Music Video The opening match this week on Monday Night Raw saw Kevin Owens defeat Solo Sikoa via disqualification when Jimmy Uso interfered. This was Sikoa’s first televised loss on the main roster, where he debuted back in September. Sikoa has yet to be pinned or made to submit on the main roster. This comes after reports of Sikoa being kept strong in preparation for a future feud with Roman Reigns. Sikoa has been a force. Check out his time on the main roster: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video, click to play..

Gotcha: Surprise Heel Turn Takes Place At AEW Revolution

To the other side. While there are all kinds of wrestlers on any given roster, one of the most important distinctions between them is whether they fight for good or bad. This has been the reality in wrestling for decades and continues to be to this day. It makes a difference when someone changes from one side to the other and now it has happened again in a rather violent way. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Two Sports: Current WWE Star Hopes To Compete In Boxing Match This weekend at AEW Revolution, Jamie Hayter successfully defended the Women’s Title against Saraya and Ruby Soho. Following the match, Soho attacked Hayter and Britt Baker, aligning herself with Saraya and Toni Storm. This comes after weeks of the two groups feuding, with Soho sitting on the sidelines. The turn marks the first time that Soho has been a villain in AEW. Soho can be a force. Check out what she has done in AEW: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video, click to play] [This post cont..

The Silver Screen: John Cena Set For Villain Role In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Film

It must be a wrestler thing. There are certain wrestlers who have tried their hands at acting, but only a few have managed to make it work. You never can tell when someone is going to find success in another field. When it does work, it can make for some interesting acting roles, and now we are in for another one. It just happens to be the second time a wrestler has played the role. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Long Term: WWE Continues Protecting Surprise Name For Future Roman Reigns Feud According to Deadline.com, John Cena will be voicing Rocksteady in the upcoming film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. The film will be released by Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon, with a trailer being expected later this year.

Check out some of his work in his more famous job: [This post contains video, click t..

AEW Revolution 2023 Preview, Predictions And Thoughts

It’s Revolution and things are not exactly feeling hot coming into the show. The main event is a sixty minute Iron Man match with Bryan Danielson challenging MJF for the World Title, which means there won’t be as much time for the usual deep card this time. Other than that, we have Hangman Page vs. Jon Moxley in a Texas Death Match and Christian Cage vs. Jungle Boy in what seems to be a Buried Alive match. Let’s get to it. Zero Hour: Mark Briscoe/Lucha Bros vs. Ari Daivari/Varsity Athletes The Mark Briscoe vs. Mark Sterling and company feud continues for reasons I don’t think I follow. Briscoe also has some new friends in the Lucha Bros and that means we could be in for a new trio. The division could certainly use them, but for now they have to get rid of something like this, as AEW is giving them a nice spot to get their feet wet as a three man team. Of course I’ll take Briscoe and the Bros here, as there is no reason to suggest that Daivari and company will ever be winning anything..

Long Term: WWE Continues Protecting Surprise Name For Future Roman Reigns Feud

Family fight. The Bloodline has dominated the WWE landscape for the better part of two years now, though there are some issues that have begun creeping up. Over the last few months, problems have emerged with the team, as Jey Uso seems on the fence about sticking around. That could lead to trouble, but now we have a better idea where one member might be going. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: To The Big One: Update On Ronda Rousey’s WrestleMania Status Following Injury This week on SmackDown, Solo Sikoa defeated Sami Zayn in the show’s main event, continuing his streak of never being pinned or made to submit since he debuted on the main roster. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Sikoa is being kept strong and protected to save him for an eventual match with Roman Reigns. There is no word on when this would be taking place or how it would be set up. Sikoa has done pretty well for himself. Check out his time on the main roster so far: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post ..

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 ..

Down The List: Omos Was Far From The First Choice For Brock Lesnar’s WrestleMania Opponent

Not the first? We are just over four weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and the card is starting to come together. You can see a lot of the show from here and several matches have already been announced for the card. That makes for some interesting moments, but it can also be interesting to see what else didn’t happen. Now we have a better idea of what we missed. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: LOOK: Solo Sikoa Gets Married, Several WWE Stars In Attendance This week on Monday Night Raw, Brock Lesnar agreed to face Omos at WrestleMania 39. According to Fightful Select, there were multiple matches pitched for Lesnar before Omos was chosen as his WrestleMania opponent. These names included Gunther, Bobby Lashley (who Lesnar had been feuding with on and off for over a year) and Bray Wyatt. There is no word on why the previous matches were called off or how far Omos was down on the list. Lesnar is quite the monster.
