Not A Fan: Wrestling Legend On Johnny Gargano: “He’s Not Over. Listen To That Crowd”

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..

The Less The Merrier: WWE Reportedly Making A Change For This Year’s Hall Of Fame Class

Still works. We are coming up on WrestleMania weekend and that means it is time for a lot of things to start coming together. This includes the WrestleMania card of course, but also several other pieces that are only starting to be announced. One such thing is the WWE Hall Of Fame, with this year’s class only starting to come together. Now we might have a better idea as to why. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Of Course: 60 Year Old WWE Legend Inducts Himself Into Hall Of Fame, Accuses Miz Of Theft Last week on SmackDown, Rey Mysterio was announced as the first inductee into the WWE Hall Of Fame Class of 2023. While WWE is planning to announce at least one more inductee later this week, this is slower than the company’s usual pace for announcing inductions. According to Fightful Select, the current plan is to have this year’s class be “way smaller” than in previous years. There is no word on how many names will be included in the induction ceremony, which is set for March 31. There is one big..

WATCH: Hulk Hogan Endorses Surprise Names For WWE Hall Of Fame

That’s an endorsement. We are rapidly approaching WrestleMania 39 weekend and as usual, it will be the biggest and busiest few days of the wrestling year. Fans from all over the world will be coming out to see what WWE is doing that weekend, but there is also a lot of stuff that has nothing to do with what happens in the ring. One legend has put in a request for what he would like to see. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: He Would Know: Edge Calls 36 Year Old Raw Wrestler Today’s Rated-R Superstar On March 31, WWE will induct the Class of 2023 into the WWE Hall Of Fame. In a new YouTube video, Hulk Hogan has endorsed the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers, Jacques and Raymond, to be inducted this year. The Rougeaus teamed together in the WWE from 1986-1990.

Check out the Rougeaus in action: [This post contains video, click to play] [This ..

Bray Wyatt Dealing With Physical Issue

That could be a problem. It was previously reported that Bray Wyatt missed a scheduled live event appearance at Madison Square Garden over the weekend, along with missing Smackdown this past week. Some new information may give some clues as to why this happened. According to a report from Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, Wyatt has an undisclosed “physical issue” and is currently out of action. It is unknown at this time. What exactly the issue is, and how long he will be away from WWE. Bray Wyatt has an undisclosed “physical issue” and is currently out of action, per @SeanRossSapp pic.twitter.com/h2Cqhf2Y1w — B/R Wrestling (@BRWrestling) March 13, 2023 Wyatt was scheduled to take part in a match and in a battle royal at MSG, with Braun Strowman replacing him.

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.

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.

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.

Quick One: AEW Title Changes Hands On Dynamite In Surprising Fashion

Hand it over. There are different kinds of title reigns in wrestling and they can all end in different ways. Occasionally you will see them last for a very long time while others come and go rather quickly. It can be interesting to see how different title reigns go in various ways and now another one has come to an end after a few unique twists with everything involved. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Get Your Bids In: AEW Star’s Contract Reportedly Up Soon, WWE Interested Over the weekend at Revolution, Wardlow defeated Samoa Joe to win the TNT Title for the second time. Wardlow then went on to defend the title against Powerhouse Hobbs this week on Dynamite after Hobbs won the Face of the Revolution ladder match to earn a title shot.

It’s that time of year. We are less than a month away from WrestleMania 39 and that means it is time to start getting everything ready.

Down Time: WWE Star Injured Following Backstage Attack

It can happen to anyone. You never want to see a wrestler get hurt but it is something that can happen to anyone at any given time. Wrestlers can go from on a roll to having to sit on the sidelines while they heal up. At the same time, you can also have someone get hurt without even noticing it at the same time. That seems to be the case again, as a WWE star is on the injured list. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Gotcha: Surprise Heel Turn Takes Place At AEW Revolution Last week on Monday Night Raw, Candice LeRae defeated Piper Niven in a match.

This week on Monday Night Raw, it was announced that LeRae had suffered a sprained AC joint in her right shoulder. There is no word on when LeRae will return to WWE TV, though she did wrestle at live events over the weekend. This would suggest that the injury is just part of a storyline. LeRae is quite talented when she is around. Check out what she can do in the ..

That Wasn’t Good: Details On MJF Throwing Drink At Young Fan At AEW Revolution

That’s some heeling. Being a villain in wrestling can be rather difficult, as there is a very fine line to be walked between making the fans mad and going too far. A talented villain can make it work very well, but there are always going to be issues with crossing a line. Such a line might have been crossed this weekend, but the promotion did what they could to make up for it. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Gotcha: Surprise Heel Turn Takes Place At AEW Revolution During the main event of AEW Revolution over the weekend, Maxwell Jacob Friedman took a drink from a fan and threw it on a child. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, it turns out that the cup contained tequila, which Friedman did not know, thinking it was water. Amanda Huber (the widow of Brodie Lee) came out and sat with the fan and brought him backstage, where he was given signed merchandise and tickets to Dynamite in Sacramento, California this week. Tony Khan also reportedly spoke to Friedman about the incident. That didn’t ..
