Not So Rowdy? Update On Ronda Rousey’s WWE Status

Not that one. The Royal Rumble is a complicated show as there are so many people taken up by the show’s namesake matches. That does not leave much room for wrestlers to not be around, though it can made a bit easier if the roster is deep enough coming into the show. It seems to be the case this year, as one prominent WWE star is no longer expected to appear at the event. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: REVIEW: Raw 25: The Previous Biggest Reunion Ever According to Fightful Select, Ronda Rousey is no longer expected to appear at the Royal Rumble.

Enzo Amore Expresses His Rage In New Music Video

It would appear that you shouldn’t upset the realest guy in the room. Former WWE superstar Enzo Amore has released a music video for his new rap song, “Phoenix.” Amore, who is now going by the rap name “Real1,” has included a few lyrics that are taking shots at the woman who accused him of rape earlier this year. You can take a look at the rap video below: [This post contains video, click to play] Below are some highlights from the video (h/t to Pro Wrestling Sheet for the transcription): The video begins with a wrestling fan arguing with his mother from the basement during the “25th anniversary of sports entertainment.” He then gets a breaking news alert and rushes to his computer — obviously in reference to Amore being sent home from WWE before Raw 25. Some noteworthy lyrics include: “They cry tears of joy at my funeral. Still I rise from the ashes like a phoenix. Middle finger to the sky grippin’ my …. consensual penis. Lyin’ ass hoe out in Phoenix. When I say that shit I mea..

Enzo Amore Potentially Takes Dig At WWE For His Release

Enzo Amore was fired from WWE in January of this year due to being under investigation for rape allegations. Now that he has been cleared, he has returned to social media, potentially taking a dig at WWE for releasing him. When he was originally released from the company, it was noted that WWE made the decision after he refused to inform them about the investigation. When the investigation concluded, Amore’s attorney noted that the former WWE Cruiserweight Champion was not made aware of the claims until after it exploded onto social media. WWE usually wish their Superstars well in their future endeavors, but Amore was not one of those Superstars. This was likely due to the frustration that everything went public during Raw 25 and the severe nature of the claims by Amore’s accuser. Amore took to his Instagram account during a series of messages to reference the ‘future endeavors,’ explaining that it was the fans who cared about him and wished him luck in his future and trusted him wh..
