New plan! We are less than three weeks away from WrestleMania 39, which will feature some of the biggest WWE matches of the year. This is the kind of show that can change a wrestler’s future and the question becomes what happens after that. Getting to headline the show is one of the biggest career boosts imaginable and now some different names might be receiving that honor. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The Less The Merrier: WWE Reportedly Making A Change For This Year’s Hall Of Fame Class According to Xero News on Twitter, WWE has made some changes to the WrestleMania card. The Raw Women’s Title match with Bianca Belair defending against Asuka will take place on Night One, while the SmackDown Women’s Title match with Charlotte defending against Rhea Ripley will take place on Night Two. A currently unannounced match between the Usos and Kevin Owens/Sami Zayn could be headlining Night One, though the plans have not yet been finalized. WrestleMania 39 takes place on April 1 and 2.

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. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Flashback: Bayley Seemingly Special Backstage Moment In Tweet To Trish Stratus According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Bray Wyatt did not wrestle at this weekend’s WWE live event at Madison Square Garden. Wyatt was scheduled to take part in a match and in a battle royal, with Braun Strowman replacing him. It turns out that Wyatt was not at this week’s SmackDown either. There is no word on why Wyatt is out of action. Wyatt has been feuding with Bobby Lashley though no match has been announced yet. Wyatt has been busy as of late. Check out his recent time on WWE TV: [This post contains vi..
That could slow things down. There are all kinds of reasons for a wrestler to not be able to get in the ring and some of them are more serious than others. You never know when you might see someone having to sit out a good deal of time before they can have a major match and that can make things a lot more complicated. Now it seems to be slowing down the debut of a top WWE prospect. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WATCH: Undertaker Reveals Surprising Name Considered To End The Streak Back in 2021, WWE officially announced the signing of Olympic gold medalist Gable Steveson. While Steveson has made some appearances and was even Drafted by Monday Night Raw, he has yet to actually wrestle a match in WWE. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Steveson is talking about returning to amateur wrestling and attempting to win another Olympic gold medal in 2024. There is no word on if he has made a decision how WWE would react to Steveson making such an attempt. The 2024 Olympic Games take plac..
That’s a long time. There are all kinds of injuries in the wrestling world and some of them can be quite serious. When you see someone get hurt, one of the most important questions is how long they will be out of action. This can range anywhere from days to several months and all points in between. Now we have an idea of how much longer someone is going to be out of action. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Not Yet: WrestleMania Title Match Delayed After Controversial Finish To #1 Contenders Match Last week on SmackDown, Kofi Kingston was injured, resulting in him being removed from a fatal five way #1 contenders match for the Intercontinental Title. Kingston revealed that he suffered some sort of foot injury, which according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, took place when Drew McIntyre dove onto him during a brawl. The injury was described as a “freak accident”. Kingston is expected to be out of action for five weeks, meaning he will miss WrestleMania 39. Kingston is awesome when he is ..
You’re up next. A long title reign can be one of the most interesting things in all of wrestling, as it opens up the question of who might be the person to take them down. Having a huge title defense can be a lot of fun as you can feel the possibility of a title change. We almost had that again, but things have gotten a little more complicated after a controversial finish. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: He’s In: Active WWE Star Announced For Hall Of Fame Class Of 2023 This week on SmackDown, Drew McIntyre and Sheamus won a fatal five way match for the #1 contendership to the Intercontinental Title at WrestleMania. Sheamus and McIntyre scored a double pin on Xavier Woods and LA Knight (with Karrion Kross also involved in the match) but no #1 contender was announced. The two argued in the back and later in the show, a match between the two was set for next week with the winner getting the title shot at WrestleMania. This could be big for WrestleMania. Check out who could be fighting for the t..
She might need a restraining order. There are all kinds of stars on the WWE roster, some of whom are among the most unique kinds of stars that you will see in any wrestling promotion. It can be interesting to see those wrestlers come together in a match or some kind of a storyline, but there are other times where it takes a bit of a darker turn, which was the case with two current WWE stars. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: He’s In: WWE Announces Change To #1 Contenders Match Due To Injury Earlier this week on Monday Night Raw, Johnny Gargano defeated Finn Balor in a match, with Dexter Lumis and Rhea Ripley both at ringside. Lumis has sent Ripley a message on Twitter, featuring a drawing of him holding an ax and asking if Ripley liked drawings. Ripley has not responded to the post. Lumis debuted on the WWE main roster last year but has yet to speak a word on television. @RheaRipley_WWE do you like drawings? pic.twitter.com/mFyptpx8Cp — Dexter Lumis (@DexterWWE) March 8, 2023 This is a weird..
There soon. There are several ways to present a wrestler and various elements have to be put together properly to make it work. One of the most important is the debut as it offers fans their first look at someone new. That can be done in a variety of ways, including building up anticipation for a wrestler’s debut. WWE has been doing that lately and now we have an idea of when someone might be showing up. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: A Trust Issue: How John Cena Earned Backstage Heat For Violating Trust NCAA Champion and Olympic gold medalist in freestyle wrestling Gable Steveson signed a contract with WWE in September 2021. Steveson has appeared for WWE a few times since then but he has yet to wrestle his debut match.

Steveson also said that he would like to return to the Olympics in an attempt to win a second gold medal but did not know..
It could be worse? We are getting closer and closer to WrestleMania and a lot of the card has already been set up. With so little time left though, there are only so many more changes that can be made. Occasionally something happens that necessitates a change though and while we have not reached that point just yet, one WWE star will not be going into WrestleMania as planned. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: It’s Over: Six Month Old Streak Snapped On Monday Night Raw Last week on SmackDown, Ronda Rousey accompanied Shayna Baszler to the ring with her arm in a sling. This was later revealed to be due to Rousey re-aggravating a previous injury. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Rousey and Baszler are still expected to challenge for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania, but Rousey is not likely to be at 100% for the match. The match has yet to be announced but as of now Tuesday, she is expected to work the show. Rousey is something else when she is healthy. Check out what she can..
It had to happen at some point. Wrestling is a weird sport in that while wins and losses matter, the results are planned in advance. What makes it more interesting is that fans can get behind the idea of a wrestler winning over and over, as it makes them seem like a bigger star. Every wrestler has to lose at some point though, and now one of the winning streaks has been broken. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: WATCH: WWE And AEW Stars Reunite In New Music Video The opening match this week on Monday Night Raw saw Kevin Owens defeat Solo Sikoa via disqualification when Jimmy Uso interfered. This was Sikoa’s first televised loss on the main roster, where he debuted back in September. Sikoa has yet to be pinned or made to submit on the main roster. This comes after reports of Sikoa being kept strong in preparation for a future feud with Roman Reigns. Sikoa has been a force. Check out his time on the main roster: [This post contains video, click to play] [This post contains video, click to play..
They’re in a time crunch. We are less than four weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and that means it is time to get everything left over set up for the card. It is difficult to get some things together and it can be made even worse when a problem takes place out of nowhere. That seems to be the case again, as a star who is probably going to be on the card is injured. Now we know some more about the situation. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The Other Side: MJF Allegedly Said He’s “Looking Forward To Being” In WWE In 2024 This week on SmackDown, Ronda Rousey appeared with her arm in a sling after being attacked by Natalya and Tegan Nox earlier in the night. According to PWTorch.com, Rousey aggravated a prior injury, meaning that the planned tag team match between Rousey/Shayna Baszler vs. Nox/Natalya had to be changed. As of now, Rousey is still expected to wrestle at WrestleMania, though she has not had a match announced yet. A healthy Rousey is a force. Check out what should be at WrestleMania..
Ouch? With less than a month to go before WrestleMania 39, almost anything that happens on a WWE show is going to have some kind of ramifications on the upcoming big nights. Most of the stories have already been started but there is plenty of time for more things to happen on the way there. Another of those things might have happened this week and that could tie into a bigger story. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: What’s Next? Goldberg’s WWE Contract Is A Bit Strange At The Moment This week on SmackDown, a video showed Ronda Rousey being attacked earlier in the day by Tegan Nox and Natalya. As a result, Rousey’s arm was in a sling as she accompanied partner Shayna Baszler for her match against Nox later in the night. There is nothing to indicate that this is anything more than a storyline. This comes as the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has said there will be many more “twists and turns” before the Women’s Tag Team Title match at WrestleMania. While the match has yet to be announced, Baszler ..
She has the pull. There are certain stars in WWE who have more status and power than others. It can make for some very interesting moments when they use that status to get something they want, which can range anywhere from something simple to something that changes a fairly important aspect of the company. We might be seeing something in the latter, as a star is pushing for a certain change. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Not Now: Update On Bray Wyatt’s Planned Horror Film On the December 30, 2022 SmackDown, Ronda Rousey lost the SmackDown Women’s Title to Charlotte in an impromptu title defense. According to Wrestlingnews.co, this is because Rousey and Shayna Baszler will be challenging for the Women’s Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania 39. Rousey has been pushing for the match and according to a source “that’s the match she wants and whatever she wants she gets”. The title match has yet to be announced. https://wrestlingnews.co/wwe-news/spoiler-on-wrestlemania-title-match-why-plans-changed-f..
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. However, there is something else that often happens at WrestleMania and now WWE might have spoiled its own surprise. 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.

NXT Date: February 28, 2023 Location: Capitol Wrestling Center, Orlando, Florida Commentators: Vic Joseph, Booker T. We are about a month away from Stand & Deliver and the card is starting to take shape. While nothing has happened yet and Roadblock is next week, you can probably figure out a lot of what is coming. One thing that is not entirely clear is what will be going on with Shawn Michaels and Grayson Waller, but maybe we can find out some more tonight. Let’s get to it. We open with a huge brawl of people trying to get to the ring to answer Wes Lee’s open challenge for a North American Title shot. Dabba-Kato almost makes it in but Apollo Crews jumps him. Nathan Frazer returns and gets inside for the title shot. North American Title: Nathan Frazer vs. Wes Lee Lee is defending. Frazer headlocks him down to start and holds him there for a good bit. That’s broken up and Lee nips to his feet for a standoff. Lee takes Frazer down but they’re right back up with lee being sent outside...
