WATCH: Bryan Danielson Says It’s Time To Go Home, Walks Out On AEW TV

Back later? There are all kinds of storylines in wrestling, some of which might not make the most sense on the surface. Oftentimes, these stories are things that will not be paid off for a long time, as fans are left waiting to see what is going on. That seems to be what is happening again in AEW, as one of the company’s top stars is saying he will be gone for the time being. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Quick One: AEW Title Changes Hands On Dynamite In Surprising Fashion On Sunday at AEW Revolution, Bryan Danielson lost an Iron Man match to AEW World Champion Maxwell Jacob Friedman, submitting in overtime to give Friedman the win. This week on Dynamite, Danielson talked about how he got where he is by never giving up and did not know what to do now. Danielson said that it might be time he went home before walking away.

The Long Move: Interesting Note On WWE’s Change To Premium Live Events

It’s a good change. WWE has been around for decades and over the years, the company has built up a variety of traditions. Several of these have come and gone, but there are some things that are almost hard to imagine changing. That can make for some jarring moments when the switches do happen, but now we are seeing the reception to one such change. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: That’s Different: WWE Makes Huge Announcement About Backlash, Bad Bunny Set For Major Role For decades, WWE has mainly presented its Premium Live Events on Sunday nights with very few exceptions. However, in recent years, WWE has begun presenting such events on Saturdays as well. According to Fightful Select, WWE sources have said that the change in schedule has been viewed as positive. There is no word on what caused WWE to make the change or if it will continue going forward. They have gone well. Check out some Saturday events: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video, click to play] ..

WATCH: Wardlow Reveals The TNT Title Has Been Stolen (Along With The Rest Of His Stuff)

w Unfortunately bad things can happen occasionally, and that is the case again for an AEW star. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: And Done: AEW Stable Officially Disbands On Sunday at AEW Revolution, Wardlow defeated Samoa Joe to regain the TNT Title. This week, Wardlow posted a video to Twitter, revealing that someone broke into his rental car and stole his bags. These bags contained all of his wrestling gear, from his attire to his boots to the TNT Title itself. There is no word on if AEW has another version of the belt. This is the second time that an AEW title was stolen, as the World Title belt was stolen during Chris Jericho’s reign. It was eventually returned by someone who found it elsewhere. That was rough. Check out Wardlow’s announcement and the TNT Title being defended: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video, click to play] Opinion: Dang that’s awful, as Wardlow committed the heinous act of leaving his possessions locked up. It’s a shame that this ..

AEW Dynamite Results – March 1, 2023

Dynamite Date: March 1, 2023 Location: Cow Palace, San Francisco, California Commentators: Excalibur, Tony Schiavone, Taz It’s the go home Dynamite for Revolution and that means we have a stacked show. This time around that includes the Face of the Revolution ladder match plus a Casino tag team battle royal to determine the fourth team in Sunday’s four way Tag Team Title match. That should be more than enough to carry the show so let’s get to it. Opening sequence. All-Atlantic Title: Orange Cassidy vs. Big Bill Bill, with Stokely Hathaway, is challenging. Cassidy gets backed to the floor to start and the chase is on, with Cassidy messing with Bill’s mind. With nothing else working, Cassidy even steals Stokely’s glasses before tumbling away from Bill. Back in and the tornado DDT is countered into a side slam to plant Cassidy for the first time. A running big boot puts Cassidy on the floor and it’s time to set up the table (which they do move to the end of the ramp for once). Cassidy..

Early Betting Odds For AEW Revolution 2023

The -110 means you’ll need to bet $110 to get a $100 payout if the Steelers win. Editor’s Opinion: So, The Elite, J..

On The Injured List: AEW Star Out 5-6 Weeks With Foot Injury, Possibly Longer

It can happen to anyone. Injuries are one of the great equalizers in wrestling as any wrestler can get hurt and put on the shelf at any time. You never want to see someone get hurt and left out of the ring for any amount of time, as their time on the injured list could go on for awhile. Now another AEW star has revealed that he is hurt, but he has an idea of how long he will be out. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: One Step: Huge Update On Jeff Hardy’s DUI Charges, Case Closed AEW’s Fuego del Sol has announced that he suffered a foot injury during a match in Sacramento, California last Sunday. The injury took place when del Sol hit a dropkick but his opponent landed on him, resulting in a dislocated foot. The foot was popped back into place during the match, but damage was still done. Del Sol also suffered a small fracture near his toe. He is expected to miss five to six weeks of action, though any possible ligament damage could extend his time up to about three months. Unfortunately I suffer..

Oh Yeah: Steve Austin Officially Set For Upcoming A&E Series

As only he can. There are certain names in wrestling who are among the biggest the sport has ever seen. Fans know these people no matter what they are doing and there is something special about seeing them out there every so often. Occasionally they will become big enough stars to do something outside of the ring and that is what another legend is doing now. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Farewell? New Japan’s Jay White Signals He Is Ready For A New Era, Possible Move A&E has announced that Steve Austin will be starring in a new series called “Stone Cold Takes On America”, which will feature Austin traveling the country in an attempt to experience things that he missed during his wrestling career. Austin will travel around in his RV, “accepting challenges from fans that push him out of his comfort zone” while also looking back at some of Austin’s career. The ten part series will debut Sunday April 10 at 10pm EST as part of A&E’s Superstar Sunday block of WWE programming. The show has potent..

REVIEW: Raw 25: The Previous Biggest Reunion Ever

Welcome to KB’s Old School (and New School) Reviews. I’ve been reviewing wrestling shows for over ten years now and have reviewed over 5,000 shows. Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I’ll be posting a new review here on Wrestlingrumors.net, starting today. It could be anything from modern WWE to old school to indies to anything in between. Note that I rate using letters instead of stars and I don’t rate matches under three minutes as really, how good or bad can something that short be? Monday Night Raw 25th Anniversary Date: January 22, 2018 Location: Manhattan Center, New York City, New York/Barclays Center, New York City, New York Commentators: Michael Cole, Corey Graves, Booker T., Jim Ross, Jerry Lawler Now this is a big night with the show having been build up for several months and a slew of guest stars booked for the night. The show is also being run from two arenas, including the location of the first ever episode. I’m more excited for this than I am for Sunday’s Royal Rumbl..

Subtraction By Subtraction: Changes Coming To WWE Network/Peacock, Shows Leaving

It’s less wrestling. The WWE Network was an absolute game changer for wrestling fans. For the first time ever, fans were able to see almost every major WWE event in history for a relatively cheap price. It meant there was more content available to fans and more was added at a regular basis. However, that might not be the case anymore, at least for certain wrestling programming. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: You’re Up: Royal Rumble Described As “All Hands On Deck”, What That Means According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, a WWE source says that independent wrestling content will be discontinued on Peacock. This comes after various shows events are listed as leaving in a few days. Shows that seem to be leaving include ICW, Progress and Evolve, though it is not clear if all of them will be leaving permanently. A wXw event is set to premiere this coming Sunday. A WWE source indicated to Fightful that they'll be discontinuing indie content on the WWE Network. https://t.co/DwMvG4msM2 — Sean..

Next Batch: More WWE Biographies Coming Next Month

They’re up next. We are in the middle of a weird era in wrestling, as fans have been wanting to see more about the history of the industry. This has led to a series of books, films and television series about wrestling. There are all kinds of stories to be seen in the wrestling world and WWE has gotten in on the idea as well. Now we are getting to see what they have in store next. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WRESTLING RUMORS: Major Title Change Planned Before WrestleMania 39 Over the last two years, WWE has worked with A&E to produce episodes of A&E’s Biography series on various WWE and wrestling legends. According to PWInsider.com, new episodes will begin airing on Sunday February 19, with looks at Dusty Rhodes, Jake Roberts and the NWO, plus more to be announced.

Check out some the three of them in action: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video, cl..

That’s A Lot: Mandy Rose Reportedly Making Eye Popping Numbers On Subscription Site

That’s a lot. Wrestlers can do a lot of things to improve their standing in a promotion and, in theory at least, make more money. That is the kind of thing that can be rather tricky as wrestlers have to figure out what fans want and then act accordingly. Now another wrestler is doing just that, and it seems to be going incredibly well, even if it has nothing to do with wrestling whatsoever. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Not Him: WWE Pulls Hall Of Famer From ECW Tribute Show Last week, WWE released Mandy Rose, reportedly over a series of controversial photos and videos Rose released on her FanTime subscription site. According to TMZ Sports, Rose has made $500,000 since being released, which could double as soon as Christmas Day on Sunday. Rose, 32 years old, has given no indication of when or if she will resume her wrestling career. Rose was a star in NXT. Check out some of her time there: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video, click to play] [This post co..

Kofi Kingston Makes WWE History at NXT Deadline

Another one for the history books. This past Sunday at NXT Deadline, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods captured the NXT tag team championships by defeating Pretty Deadly. While this was a great moment for The New Day, this championship victory was also historic in a number of ways. As a result of their victory, Kingston broke the record for the most tag team championships in WWE history with 15. The previous record was held by Booker T, who had 14 championship reigns. Kofi Kingston has now officially broken the record for most tag-title reigns in @WWE history.

The Revolution Will Be Televised: AEW Reveals Details For Next Pay Per View In New Market

That’s the next one. For the better part of forty years, pay per views have been the most important events in wrestling. A pay per view event would often feature the biggest stars in the most important matches and it was a special feeling when one took place. That is still the case today and one major company only presents a pay per view every few months. Now we know when the next one will be held. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Busy Night: Several Title Changes Take Place At AEW Full Gear During the post AEW Full Gear media scrum, AEW President Tony Khan announced that the company’s first pay per view of 2023, Revolution, will take place on Sunday March 5 at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California. Revolution will be the first AEW pay per view to be held in California, with previous editions taking place in Illinois or Florida. This will also be a rare Sunday pay per view, as most AEW events are held on Saturday. The media scrum was big. Check out the event in full, plus Revolution o..

WATCH: Rhea Ripley Messes With A Fan At WWE Live Event

That’s a different one. Fans are among the most important parts of any wrestling show as you need someone watching to make something matter. They can be at home or in the arena, but the latter gets a more special situation. Sometimes that is not as good as it might sound though, and that was the case for a fan at a recent live event, thanks to a certain WWE star. During a recent Sunday Night Stunner live event in Mexico City, Rhea Ripley was knocked to the floor and landed near the barricade. Before getting up, Ripley reached into the crowd and untied a fan’s shoelaces. Other fans can be heard laughing at what Ripley did as she rolled away from the barricade. Ripley was in Damian Priest’s corner this week on Monday Night Raw. This was pretty great. Check out what Ripley did to a fan: [This post contains video, click to play] Opinion: What you have here is a prime example of what makes live events special. It is something that you probably couldn’t get away with during a televised s..

Alleged Reason Why WWE Canceled Day 1 Premium Live Event

That ‘s a valid excuse. WWE has a lot going on at any given point and it can be difficult to keep track of everything that is taking place. There are times where things can fall through the cracks and need to be changed, which can lead to even more confusing situations. That seems to have taken place again, as WWE has canceled an upcoming premium live event and now we know why. Earlier this month, news broke that WWE was canceling its Day 1 event on January 1, 2023 in Atlanta, Georgia. According to 411mania.com, there is a chance that the event was canceled due to Peacock, which airs major WWE events, will be airing the final Sunday Night Football game of the season. According to PWInsider.com, WWE has changed the premium live event to a regular live event. Opinion: This is one of those situations that much be annoying for people who were looking forward to the event but at least they are getting a little something instead of nothing. The event had some interest going into it but now..

More Details On Ricky Steamboat’s Return To The Ring

That would be big. There are a lot of ways to wrap up a wrestling career and some of them can be very respectful for everyone involved. Every wrestler wants to go out on a high note but sometimes they will also want to prove that they still have what it takes to be in the ring, even one more time. That is what a legend is going to be doing later this year and now we know a bit more about the match. Earlier this year, it was announced that Ricky The Dragon Steamboat would be wrestling his final match later this year for Big Time Wrestling in Raleigh, North Carolina. The promotion has now announced that the match will be a six man tag, featuring Steamboat and FTR taking on Jay Lethal, Brock Anderson and a mystery partner, with Arn Anderson managing the team. The show takes place on November 27. It's the "Return of the Dragon" on Sunday, November 27 at the Dorton Arena in Raleigh, NC! RICKY "The Dragon" STEAMBOAT & FTR vs. ARN ANDERSON's team of BLACK MACHISMO, BROCK ANDERSO..

WWE Considers Changes To Upcoming Premium Live Event

Schedule adjustment. WWE presents a lot of events during the course of any given year. Most of these are television shows which are often designed to set up the major monthly events. Since WWE has so many of these monthly shows, they need something to make them stand out. That is what they have done with an upcoming show, but they might be making a change. WWE is currently scheduled to present Day One on Sunday January 1, 2023 at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. However, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE is considering making some kind of a change to the show. It is not clear what change might be made, but the show might be moved to another date. Brock Lesnar is currently advertised for the show. Opinion: The idea of having a show on the first day of the year makes sense on paper, but it is only going to work for a little while. Is WWE going to run Day One on Monday, January 1, 2024 instead of Monday Night Raw? Day One is a cool idea but I’m not sure how lo..

Next Time: WWE Cancels Upcoming Event

One less on the calendar. WWE is the biggest and most powerful wrestling promotion in the world and that gives them a lot of advantages over other companies. One of their major strengths is the name recognition that comes with running regular events around the country. It means something to get to see the action live, but that will not be the case for some fans. According to PWInsider.com, WWE has canceled its upcoming Sunday Stunner event on October 16 in Prescott Valley, Arizona. There was no reason given for the cancellation of the show, which would have been the first WWE event in the venue, and no makeup date announced. The event was to be a SmackDown show, featuring matches such as the New Day vs. the Usos and Drew McIntyre vs. Karrion Kross. Opinion: This one comes a bit out of nowhere and I’m curious to know why the show was canceled. There is always the chance that it was due to low ticket sales, which would not be the most shocking in a new venue. WWE is on a bit of a roll ..
