On WWE RAW it was confirmed that Liv Morgan suffered an injury last Friday on Smackdown.  The injury occurred during the match against Damage CTRL ( Bayley & Dakota Kai ) where she and Raquel Rodriguez retain the WWE women’s tag team championships.                                               Morgan and Rodriguez were scheduled to defend their titles tonight on RAW against Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville, instead Rodriguez faced Green in singles competition. It was also reported that Morgan did not appear on her scheduled Wireless Cricket Meet & Greet Monday morning and was replaced by Dolph Ziggler.                                                 Liv Morgan posted a picture of her and Raquel holding the tag team belts a few minutes after the injury was announced on RAW without making any comments but hopefully this gesture could be taken as a positive sign.       As of this writing it is impossible for me to report what is the exact nature and severity of that injury neither

 Last Friday, Smackdown opened with the two world championship tournament triple threat matches, with the first seing AJ Styles go over Edge and Rey Mysterio while the 2nd see Bobby Lashley defeats Sheamus and US champion Austin Theory, the headliner featured Styles going over Lashley in the semi final to advance in the final where he’ll face Seth Rollins for the World championship at Night of Champions on May 27.                 WWE did something different to open the show as they went straight to the first triple threat bout, only aired the entrance of Edge mixing the entrances of Styles and Mysterio.  It has been reported that those entrances were instead shared on social media before the show went live to «  serve an active reminder that the show was starting « .                                       WWE hasn’t done that in the past, so maybe this new strategy will increase the ratings for the beginning of the show.                           What’s your take on it ?

Bray Wyatt hasn’t been since on WWE television since last February, he has missed WrestleMania 39 where he was supposed to face Bobby Lashley, there are several reasons for this absence, reasons that have been well documented and reported by myself and other wrestling médias so I’m not gonna bored you with all the details behind his current hiatus. However, an interesting new development has happened backstage that could lead to Wyatt’s return sooner than expected.                          WWE has hired a new writer to work directly with Bray Wyatt, which will allow Rob Fee to essentially step away from Bray Wyatt, and work exclusively on his actual job role, which is long term storytelling.                                    A specific, and I do not have a name for that person, one individual specific writer familiar to Bray Wyatt, has been brought in to pitch and lay out the story going forward.                                       The reason this writer has been hired is because, t

Yesterday during the Backlash press conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Triple H revealed how the upcoming tournament for the new WWE world title will be set in place.     Surprisingly, he announced a cross brand 12 men tournament to take place on 2 separate nights.  First part, this Monday on RAW there will be 2 triple threat matches between RAW superstars yet to be determined, the winners of those triple threat will face each other later in that night to determine which superstar from RAW will go on in the final of the tournament. A final already scheduled to happen at the next WWE PLE, Night of Champions on May 27 in Saudi Arabia.                                                The second part of this tournament will take place next Friday on Smackdown under the same formula of 2 triple threzts matches involving superstars from the blue brand with the winners facing each other later that same night,  on May 27 at Night of Champjons the winner of the RAW bracket will take on the winn

Vince McMahon is reportedly pushing for adding a last minute match to the card of the WWE Backlash PLE set to take place tomorrow night in San Juan, Puerto Rico.        There is a backstage rumor going that the WWE women’s tag team champions Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez could be defending their titles tomorrow against Bayley & Dakota Kai of Damage CTRL.                     If this rumor got confirmed we might have the announcement of that match tonight during the Backlash Go Home show of Smackdown who is also gonna be live from San Juan Puerto Rico.                                                                   Last Monday on RAW, Damage CTRL defeated Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez & Bianca Belair in a 6 women tag match when Bayley got the pin over Morgan.   

 At this Saturday’s Backlash PLE, Bad Bunny will compete against Damian Priest in a San Juan Street Fight.                                             The original plan was for Bunny to teamed up with Rey Mysterio against Damian Priest and Dominik Mysterio, according to an inside source.                                                             Plans were altered when both Bad Bunny and WWE were said to feel confortable in Bunny’s ability to have a good single match instead, the belief is that Bunny would have pinned Dominik in the tag match.                               This Saturday will be Bad Bunny’s 3td match inside a WWE ring, ironically the 1st one was when he teamed up with his actual nemesis Damian Priest to defeat The Miz and John Morison at WrestleMania 37,  the 2nd was in the 2022 Royal Rumble match.            

 WWE has made some changes on the advertisement for this year’s Money in the Bank PLE on Saturday July 1 at the 02 Arena in London.                                                      The show sold out with its general sale in just one minute due to its build-up demand.       Originally, WWE Undisputed Universal champion Roman Reigns wasnt advertised in the show, however, he is now on the events section of WWE’s website.                            There has been another change, WWE has removed Drew McIntyre from the list of superstars advertised for Money in the Bank.  McIntyre’s last appearance on WWE television was at WrestleMania 39 when he faced Gunther and Sheamus in a Triple Threat for the Intercontinental championship.                      The belief from inside as the reason for this remove is that Drew is simply not healthy enough to be ready for that big event in July, Drew McIntyre was officially declared sidelined due to injury after WrestleMania and it has already been re

One half of the Headbanger , Mosh ( Charles Warrington ) who had won the WWE tag team titles once alongside Thrasher looks to have revealed via his Twitter that he has been offered and signed a nostalgia agreement with WWE.                                                            Such an agreement has been know to allow WWE to use a talent’s likeness, release merchandise and request them to make special appearances.                                                  Whilst Mosh has not been an active WWE main roster member since 2001, he and Thrasher Would make a starling comeback for a handful of matches on Smackdown in 2016. During his time in WWE, Charles Warrington is also know for having portrayed one of the worst gimmick in the company’s history as Beaver Cleavage in 1999, a gimmick that he shut down himself live on camera during an episode of Raw is War, he also had a brief tag team run as Chaz alongside D-lo Brown before leaving the company in 2001.                           It

  WWE has just signed an history making Olympic gold medalist after she announced that she was hanging up her amateur boots.  Announced in a story from ESPN, 30 years old Tamyra Mensah-Stock had signed with WWE. Tamyra gained more mainstream media attention after she competing in the 2021 Olympics game in Tokyo where she captured a gold medal.                                                 Mensah-Stock made history in Tokyo as the first black female to win a gold medal in freestyle wrestling competing at 68 kg            She told ESPN that she reported to the WWE Performance Center on Monday and her goal is to be in the main roster within a year.             Let’s hope that Tamyra will be more successful in her quest to become acWWE superstar that her fellow 2021 Olympian Gable Stevenson who still hasn’t made it to the main roster after being signed by the company in September 2021.
