She’s done. It can mean a lot when a wrestler gets signed to WWE, as it is often the pinnacle of their careers. Having a wrestler make it to the biggest stage in wrestling can change their status for fans. At the same time, it can be quite the change when they depart the company. Now another wrestler is confirming that they have left WWE following a long period of inactivity. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Not A Fan: Wrestling Legend On Johnny Gargano: “He’s Not Over. Listen To That Crowd” Earlier this month, reports surfaced that Sarray had left WWE after several months away from the ring. Now Sarray herself has confirmed the departure, talking about how grateful she was for her time in the company. She said that she learned a lot in America and confirmed that she would be returning to the ring in Japan on May 16. Sarray debuted with WWE in April 2021 and wrestled her last match there in August 2022. No matter what some people might say, I did my best. I am so glad that I had the chance to..
He’s not a fan. There are all kinds of wrestlers on the WWE roster today and it can be difficult to find something for all of them to do. What matters the most is finding the wrestler who will get the strongest response from the fans, which can be easier said than done. WWE seems to have picked a wrestler, but now a certain legend is not seeing things the same way. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WRESTLING RUMORS: WWE Changes WrestleMania Plans, Possible New Main Event Over the last few weeks, Johnny Gargano has been helping Edge in his battles against the Judgment Day. In addition, Gargano is set for a match against Grayson Waller at NXT Stand & Deliver over WrestleMania weekend. However, during a recent edition of Keepin’ It 100, Konnan asked if there was anyone more over-pushed than Gargano. Konnan asked if Gargano had ever lost a match and said “Bro, he’s not over. Listen to the crowd.” Gargano teamed with Dexter Lumis in a loss to Judgment Day this week on Monday Night Raw. Gargano has b..
He isn’t a fan. Over the last few years, AEW owner Tony Khan has gone from little more than a fan to one of the more important players in the wrestling world. Khan not only helped found AEW but has also purchased Ring Of Honor. That is the kind of move that almost never takes place in wrestling but Khan made it work. Khan also maintains quite the Twitter presence and it came up again this week. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: A Big One: WWE Reportedly Believes They Can Sign Kenny Omega This week on SmackDown, combat sports journalist Ariel Helwani made an appearance in the crowd, hyping up Sami Zayn’s speech later in the show. Khan mentioned the appearance on Twitter, calling Helwani “a fraud” and saying he was as legitimate of a reporter as AEW’s Tony Schiavone. Helwani responded later in the night, thanking Khan for watching and saying he “can’t wait for our next chat”. Helwani also told Schiavone not to listen to Khan. This comes after Khan appeared on Helwani’s show last year and refused ..
Dominik Mysterio was recently interviewed by WrestleRant and Bleacher Report, where he discussed a number of topics. Among them was his relationship with Rhea Ripley, his time in prison, the future of The Judgement Day, and more. Below are some highlights from the interview: On his relationship with Rhea Ripley: “Maybe after she choked me unconscious, I thought, ‘You know what? I think things may be able to work here. I think she’s the one to help me out,'” he said about when their chemistry clicked for him. “I think our anniversary would be the first day she beat me up. But I don’t know. I’m not going to answer questions that are going to get me trouble.” “She doesn’t like to do much and neither do I, so we just stay indoors,” Dom said. “She puts on some really scary movies and listens to really loud music. I don’t like the scary movies, but she’s pretty scary, so it all depends on what she puts on, whether it be a slasher or a horror. It’s pretty intense.” On being in priso..
Back home. We are in a different wrestling world as there have been all kinds of changes taking place on an almost daily basis. That is the kind of thing you do not see happen very often and it has been all over the place with one change after another. Several names have jumped between WWE and AEW and now one of the more prominent stars has something to say about his unique spot. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WATCH: 30 Greatest Monday Night Raw Moments Of All Time William Regal appeared on the Destruction Pieces podcast and talked about coming back to WWE after his stint in AEW. Regal returned to WWE earlier this month and is now a Vice President in the company. He reportedly returned to work with his son Charlie Dempsey in NXT and be the unofficial right hand man for Triple H. Here are some highlights, with transcription courtesy of Wrestlinginc.com: On Coming Back To WWE “It’s as if nothing’s ever happened and nothing’s changed in the slightest. It’s weird. Anybody listening that’s young..
Welcome home. With so many stars on the WWE roster, it can be difficult to figure out a way to get noticed. There are certin stars who are much bigger than others though and most of them have been a World Champion at some point in their careers. It can mean a lot to have one of them show up, and that is what we got to see again this week in a surprise return. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: LISTEN: Enzo Amore Releases Tribute Song To Hacksaw Jim Duggan The opening match of this week’s SmackDown saw Solo Sikoa defeat Sheamus. Following the match, Sikoa went to attack Sheamus again but Drew McIntyre returned to make the save. This was McIntyre’s first appearance in an arena in over a month as he was out of action with an ear injury. McIntyre’s first match back has also been set, as he and Sheamus will challenge the Usos for the Tag Team Titles next week on SmackDown. This was a good one. Check out the return, plus some more of McIntyre’s 2022: [This post contains video, click to play] [This..
That’s a special tribute. Music has played a big part in wrestling for decades as the right theme song can make or break a wrestler. That can be easier said than done as picking a proper song can be difficult. At times there are wrestlers who are able to put together their own music, but this time around a wrestler has put together a song for one of the more recognizable legends in wrestling history. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Safe At Home: Hacksaw Jim Duggan Explains How He Stopped An Intruder At Gunpoint Enzo Amore, under his musical name of Real1, has released a song called Hacksaw, a tribute to WWE Hall of Famer Hacksaw Jim Duggan. The lyrics include a repeated reference to Duggan waving the flag and standing up for his country. There is nothing to suggest that Duggan was involved in the creation of the song in any way. Amore has released music since he left WWE and performed his own theme song during his time with the company. It’s a nice idea. Check out the song, plus the two in t..
She might need a change. There are different ways to present almost any wrestler. Sometimes a wrestler needs an adjustment to make things go that much better for them. That adjustment might be something brand new or something that they have done before. A WWE star is now suggesting that they might be returning to a previous gimmick that they have used before, but not in this company. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Excuses? Here Is The Surprising Reason Miro Has Been Missing From AEW TV The main event of this week’s Monday Night Raw saw Alexa Bliss defeat Asuka and Becky Lynch in a triple threat match to advance to next week’s #1 contenders match. Following the loss, Asuka posted a string of tweets, showing her in clown makeup, which she used during her time as Kana in Japan. Asuka also said that she did not want respect, but was going to go listen to the new Metallica song and go to bed. pic.twitter.com/Xd99IleI82 — ASUKA / ???

That’s some high praise. There are wrestlers who have put together such a career and legacy that they are looked at as something of a sage. Anything they say is worth listening to and praise from them can mean quite a bit for anyone. It makes a difference if they give someone an endorsement and now one such legend is praising someone who might take you by surprise. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: They’re Ready: Backstage Details On Elite’s AEW Return During a recent edition of his Gentleman Villain podcast, AEW’s William Regal named former WWE star Damien Sandow as “the one that got away”. Regal said that Sandow reminded him of himself, in that he might not have been the top star in the company, but he was going to be able to make anything work. He also praised FCW for helping train Sandow, saying that FCW stars were polite, asked the right questions and were respectful, with Sandow having those qualities. Regal said that he believed Sandow would always have a job in wrestling at a high level..
Yeah that would be big. There are only so many names who have become the face of WWE and arguably the biggest star of all time. You do not see that happen very often but you know it when you see it. Keeping those stars around for as long as possible is something any promotion would want to do and now there is a chance that another one might be heading back to the ring one more time. The main event of the first night of WrestleMania 38 earlier this year saw Steve Austin defeat Kevin Owens in an impromptu no holds barred match. The match was Austin’s first in nineteen years and he has not been seen on WWE TV since this year’s WrestleMania. However, according to WrestleVotes via Givemesport and a followup Tweet, Austin was reportedly so happy with his match against Owens that WWE believes he would consider wrestling again. The report states that Austin, 57, would listen to a proposal for WrestleMania 39, though there is no word on what he would say to such an offer. I’ll follow up on th..
She’s a fan. There are certain people in WWE who are just bigger stars than others. They are some of the bigger names who can do things that others can’t and as a result, those people have more influence. It can help a lot to see what they might want to do and in some situations, WWE will even listen. That might be what is happening again with a current top name. WWE’s Ronda Rousey recently appeared on the Baddest Stream On The Planet, where she was asked which WWE star should get a bigger push. Rousey said that Shayna Baszler should get a bigger chance, saying she was one of the best people on the show and that she needs “them to get their s*** together and realize it”. Rousey and Baszler are part of the Four Horsewomen and have trained together in WWE. Opinion: This isn’t the biggest surprise as Rousey and Baszler have been friends for a very long time now. The two of them are from a similar background and it would make sense for Rousey to want someone like Baszler to receive a pus..
The right impression. While he might not be everyone’s favorite and while he might not be around anymore, there is no one in the history of wrestling as powerful as Vince McMahon. As owner of WWE, McMahon was able to change almost anything he wanted in the company, including which stars received a push. It seems that someone was able to impress McMahon right before he left. During an appearance on the Cheap Heat podcast, WWE’s Finn Balor revealed that McMahon was impressed with his heel work as part of the Judgment Day stable. McMahon reportedly did not think that Balor had that kind of performance in him, which Balor said was nice to hear. Balor went on to say that while he had spent more time working with Triple H, McMahon had always been great to him. Opinion: There is something to be said about impressing McMahon, as he is the ultimate force in wrestling and someone who is always worth listening to. Balor has done well in the role that he has been in and plays a great villain whe..
That could have been worse for AEW. Wrestlers have a weird job when it comes to fans. At the end of the day, wrestlers are tasked with making fans believe that everything they are seeing is real, but at the same time, they have to listen to the fans either supporting or hating them. That can make for some complicated matters, and that seemed to be the case again this week at a television taping. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, there was an altercation between AEW’s Lee Moriarty and Stokely Hathaway and a fan at this week’s AEW television tapings. It is not clear if this happened during the taping or after the show was over, but it is not expected to make television. There is no word on any kind of injury or issues as a result. Moriarty is scheduled to face Matt Sydal on this week’s show. Opinion: This is something that happens every now and then and that is not something you want to see. What matters is that everyone is ok, because that could have been quite the disaster in no..
You might want to listen. Sometimes in wrestling, you will see a performance that you cannot get out of your head. There is something so impressive about it that it sticks with you over the years and becomes one of those classic moments. That might have been the case this weekend, and despite the match being the main event of the show, there was something else to end the night. The main event of this weekend’s Hell In A Cell pay per view saw Cody Rhodes defeat Rollins. Rhodes wrestled the match with a torn pectoral muscle and had a large bruise all over his arm and chest. According to PWInsider.com following the show, a crying Rhodes said he would announce more about his injury tomorrow on Monday Night Raw and apologized for wrestling hurt. He made it clear that wrestling was his decision and he would win the WWE Title. Rhodes thanked the fans for coming to the show to end the night. Opinion: That is quite the apology as I don’t think anyone was looking for one. Rhodes wrestled a hec..
That’s a serious jump. There are certain things that wrestlers do that you do not see elsewhere. Some wrestlers have rather over the top characters and that can make for some interesting situations. Things that happen on a wrestling show do not make all that much sense, especially to someone who is outside the wrestling bubble. That almost got someone in some legal issues. Michelle McCool, the wife of the Undertaker, appeared on the Wives of Wrestling podcast and told a story about the police questioning her for about possibly murdering Undertaker. McCool was followed to her home by police and was asked if her husband was home. Undertaker came out of the shower in a towel and showed the officers that he was fine and the issue was over. The officers then let the two of them listen to the call, which had a fan saying that McCool had killed Undertaker with a sledgehammer. Opinion: There are some very interesting fans out there and some of them either have a good bit of time on their han..
They’re listening. Every now and then, sometimes WWE is going to have to make a last second change to make whatever they have going on work that much better. Sometimes you might not realize just how things are going at the moment but it can make for some very fast changes. That was the case this week and now we know a bit more about how it came together. The main event of this week’s Monday Night Raw saw Asuka defeat Becky Lynch to become the new #1 contender to the Raw Women’s Title. This was not the original plan for the match though, as Naomi and Sasha Banks walked out on the show, meaning the planned Six Pack Challenge had to be scrapped. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Lynch herself pitched the idea to lose to Asuka, as WWE does not want Bianca Belair and Lynch having another singles match. As a result, the solution was to have Asuka defeat Lynch and earn the title match. Opinion: This is the kind of thing that gives me some hope for WWE, as it does seem that the..
