WATCH: Mick Foley Wants To Join The Judgment Day (And It’s Great)

He’s worth something! Stables have been one of the most important recurring concepts in wrestling as they solve multiple problems at once. Above all else, it can allow wrestlers to get on television a bit more, as instead of short spots from individual people, they can appear together for longer stretches. Now a legend wants to join one of the most prominent modern stables. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The Return: Vince McMahon Backstage At Monday Night Raw (With A Huge Change) Mick Foley has released his video resume in an attempt to join the Judgment Day. Foley lists off several of his career highlights, including a focus on his times flying off of Hell In A Cell. During the video, Foley also makes fun of Dominik Mysterio’s time in prison and includes an Al Snow reference. Thus far, Judgment Day has not responded to Foley’s offering to join the team. This is something different. Check out the resume, plus the two sides in action: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post c..

In The Back: WWE Appears To Spoil Celebrity Appearance At WrestleMania 39

I see you back there. We are just over four weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and the show has come together for the most part. If a match has yet to be announced, you can probably guess where it is going based on the regular television shows.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Unlikely Source: Dominik Mysterio Reveals How The Office Developed His Prison Dom Gimmick WWE has released a new poster for WrestleMania 39, featuring Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns at the top. At the bottom there is a group shot of several wrestlers, many of whom have matches announced for the show.

Unlikely Source: Dominik Mysterio Reveals How The Office Developed His Prison Dom Gimmick

It worked. There are all kinds of different ways to present a wrestler and some of them are more serious than others. Occasionally you will see a wrestler find something that just works for them, even if it might not be the most serious situation in the world. That is the case at the moment on Monday Night Raw, and now we know some more about how it came together in the first place. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: For Real: NXT Star Written Off Television Due To Legitimate Injury For most of the year, Dominik Mysterio has spoken extensively about his time in prison, following his arrest on Christmas Eve for invading his father Rey’s home. Since then, it has been revealed that Dominik only spent a few hours in prison, though he has continued to talk about his time there. In an interview with Inside The Ropes, Dominik said that the idea came about as part of a joke about a character called Prison Mike on the Office. WWE then ran with the idea and it became what it is today. It was an interesti..

He’s In: Speculation Over WWE Storyline Changing Due To New Name Being Introduced

They have an idea. We are on the way to WrestleMania 39 and that means we should be in for some big stories on the way to the show. That could mean a variety of changes as the stories come together. This can include some people being added into the stories that have already been started. It seems that is the case as a new star is being injected into a long running feud. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Up Next? WWE Taking A Closer Look At NXT Star Over the last few weeks, Santos Escobar has taken a new direction as he shows respect for Rey Mysterio. This included standing up for Rey against Rey’s son Dominik and Rhea Ripley this week on SmackDown. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Escobar is likely to play a roll in the Rey vs. Dominik feud, which is expected to lead to a match at WrestleMania 39. This comes as Escobar was added into the story out of nowhere and has stood up for Rey since showing respect to him earlier this month. There was no specific story given and this was given as sp..

WATCH: WWE Superstar Continues To Show Change In Attitude

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. There is no word on what this wo..

WWE SmackDown Results – February 24, 2023

Smackdown Date: February 24, 2023 Location: Ford Center, Evansville, Indiana Commentators: Michael Cole, Wade Barrett It’s a crossover night as we have some guest stars from Monday Night Raw. Not only is Rhea Ripley here to confront Charlotte, but Dominik Mysterio is here to meet his dad Rey. In addition, Rey is going to be facing Karrion Kross again, because just beating Kross isn’t enough. Let’s get to it. We open with a recap of Roman Reigns retaining the World Title over Sami Zayn at Elimination Chamber. Kevin Owens came out for the save but he and Zayn are still not on the same page. Jimmy Uso arrives but hasn’t been able to get in touch with Jey. He has left Jey multiple messages, saying they can meet in the middle of the ring so Jey can get everything off his chest. Madcap Moss/Ricochet/Braun Strowman vs. Imperium Vinci and Moss start things off by running the ropes until Moss shoulders him down. Ricochet comes in with a slingshot hilo but a hard clothesline drops him. Kaise..

Put It On The Card: Another Long Awaited Grudge Match Likely For WrestleMania 39

Is that a surprise? We are just over five weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and the card has started to come together. There are several matches already announced for the show but there are others that have yet to be confirmed. At the same time, you can probably guess some of what is coming on the card if you pay attention, and now we might know another match coming up. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: On The Road: 53 Year Old Wrestling Legend Details Efforts To Return To The Ring According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Rey Mysterio vs. Dominik Mysterio will be taking place at WrestleMania 39.

Keep It Quick: How WWE Helped Cody Rhodes With Sami Zayn Fans On Monday Night Raw

They had a plan for that. We are less than forty days away from WrestleMania 39 and WWE has set up the main event. Cody Rhodes is set to challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title, but there is a bit of a wild card in the whole situation. That would be Sami Zayn, who has become one of the most popular stars in WWE. It seems that the company had a way to deal with the situation though and it was on display this week. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WRESTLING RUMORS: WWE Bringing Back Classic Event This Year This week on Monday Night Raw, Rhodes came to the ring to discuss his match with Reigns but was almost immediately interrupted by Paul Heyman. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, this was done to prevent the fans from being able to chant for Zayn. WWE felt that if Zayn’s name dominated the segment, it would diminish Rhodes’ momentum. Reigns defeated Zayn in a title defense at Elimination Chamber. It was a smart moment. Check out the promo, plus Zayn and Rhodes in acti..

WATCH: A Furious Shawn Michaels Ejects Grayson Waller From NXT Arena, Waller Responds

That would be big. There are certain legends in wrestling who can be known by one name because they have earned the distinction. Even long after they have stopped getting in the ring, you can still hear from them on occasion, especially if they stick around the industry in some way. That was the case this week, as a retired legend was not happy with a current star. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: VIDEO: Dominik Mysterio And Rhea Ripley Take Over Rey Mysterio’s Valentine’s Day Dinner Over the last few weeks, NXT’s Grayson Waller has been having issues with NXT official Shawn Michaels. This has included Waller interrupting Michaels’ post-Vengeance Day media call, earning himself a suspension. Waller’s suspension was up this week, but he yelled at Michaels after losing a match. Following the ejection, Waller yelled about Michaels again, saying Michaels’ time had come and gone. Michaels, 57, last wrestled at Crown Jewel 2018, his first match in over eight years. This has been a tricky situation...

VIDEO: Dominik Mysterio And Rhea Ripley Take Over Rey Mysterio’s Valentine’s Day Dinner

This is becoming a tradition. There are all kinds of ways to present a wrestling storyline, many of which have been around for decades to continued success. One of the best is to have family members get into trouble with each other, likely setting up a huge match down the line. WWE has been doing that again, and now it seems that they are using various special days to make it work. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WRESTLING RUMORS: What WWE Has Planned For New Batch Of WrestleMania Parody Movie Trailers Last year on Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve, Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley have invaded Rey Mysterio’s home, resulting in violence both times. This weekend, on Valentine’s Day, Dominik and Ripley interrupted Rey’s Valentine’s Day dinner with his wife Angie. Dominik and Ripley took over the dinner but Dominik’s credit card was declined, leaving Ripley to pay instead. Rey and Dominik did not get physical this time. It was a busy holiday. Check out what went down, plus the previous holiday inv..

Dominik Mysterio Discusses Rhea Ripley, Life In Prison, The Judgement Day, More

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..

NXT Vengeance Day 2023 Results

Vengeance Day 2023 Date: February 4, 2023 Location: Spectrum Center, Charlotte, North Carolina Commentators: Vic Joseph, Booker T. NXT is back on the road for the first time since Stand & Deliver all the way back in the spring. That is something that could do a lot of good for NXT and the card is pretty stacked as well. We have a bunch of title matches here, capped off by Bron Breakker defending the NXT Title against Grayson Waller inside a cage. Let’s get to it. Charlotte hosts the opening video, which features all of the wrestlers coming into what looks like a mini arena (probably at the Performance Center) and staring each other down. Commentary says they are on the road for the first time since they took over Portland over 1,000 days ago. North American Title: Wes Lee vs. Dijak Lee is defending and suckers Dijak into the corner to start. A missed charge lets Lee hit a slingshot hurricanrana (nearly taking out the referee in the process) to send Dijak outside. Back in and Dijak ..
