But then the boss Vince McMahon would announce a brand new rule that he dubbed ‘The Wild Card Rule.’ This essentially means that three WWE superstars from RAW can show up on SmackDown Live at any time and vice versa. But why was this rule introduced so soon after the Superstar Shake-Up? Let me try and make sense of it all in this very article. Let me know your thoughts and views in the comments below....
He being the Authority’s beast of burden and specifically Stephanie’s right hand (fist) man could have just been a running gag but Big Show has surpassed the expectations and given some of the most engaging performance as a harassed employee. Thank God! Mark Henry got injured. But I’ll be glad if he returns soon but let’s take a moment and relive the promo Big Show gave just a few hours ago backstage while talking to Renee Young, who happens to be the best backstage interviewers and female announcers right now....
Wrestlemania 29 was a disappointing event to say the least and Punk vs Taker was the only exception. The grandest stage saw some predictable victories, with the biggest one being John Cena defeating The Rock for the WWE title. With a lot to catch up with, WWE now needs to make sure that the decision to make the faces win the top three matches is justified. The best time to do that would be RAW tonight....
In case you didn’t know… Up until Marella’s statement, only one side of this history has been known. The original story goes that years ago when Marella was working in OVW (which itself was then WWE developmental), he was caught laughing at The Boogeyman during a show. All talent had been told to act scared of Boogeyman, so Marella’s reaction did not go down well. Jim Cornette proceeded to slap Marella, an assault that ultimately cost Cornette his job with WWE....
While there have often been false reports of injuries, The Kingslayer Seth Rollins himself confirmed in an interview with Sportingnews.com that the reports were true and that he did have a back injury.

She parted ways with the company in 2017 after spending several years with the company. Her last televised match was on the July 18th, 2016 episode of WWE Superstars where she defeated Alicia Fox. During a recent interview with Renee Paquette on Oral Sessions, Summer Rae revealed that she was informed Vince McMahon wanted to announce some of the Rumble participants prematurely. She then decided to use the announcement to her advantage by promoting herself and her projects....
In case you didn’t know Scott Steiner had a little run with TNA and during that time he battled Samoa Joe. Before the Sacrifice pay-per-view, Steiner commented on Samoa Joe before their match where he gave some interesting mathematics reasons why he would be coming out on top of their match that evening. Heart of the matter Taking into consideration the quote above, now you are well-versed in the subject matter already....

In case you didn’t know… Miz and Maryse have been very public about their first child and it seems that the company has backed the duo all the way through the pregnancy which will no doubt play a huge part in their new TV series Miz and Mrs. Maryse was seen back at Raw’s 25th Anniversary where she was able to show off her baby bump alongside fellow pregnant diva Maria Kanellis....
Additionally, McIntyre visited the Hard Nocks South gym in Tampa, Florida, which is owned by Cena. In case you didn’t know… Drew McIntyre has had one of the best career resurgences in the history of this business. He was turned into a glorified jobber in WWE, and the promotion paired him with Heath Slater and Jinder Mahal to form the “3-Man Band”. Upon his exit, he transformed himself into an intimidating behemoth, and later signed with WWE’s NXT brand....
The news was first reported by ESPNW. In case you didn’t know… Wilson made her name as a fitness model in the late 1990s before attending a WCW event with her then-boyfriend, which resulted in her accompanying Scott Steiner to the ring and becoming a mainstay of professional wrestling for a decade. Wilson made the switch to WWE in spring 2001 when Vince McMahon procured WCW and a pairing with Stacy Keibler would propel both to instant stardom....
In case you didn’t know… NXT has become quite the phenomenon over the past few years, but whilst Triple H has worked hard to make the developmental brand a stand-alone product of its own, Vince McMahon has taken many of the biggest stars and ruined them on the main roster. The likes of Tyler Breeze, Rusev, Shinsuke Nakamura and even Sami Zayn were huge stars down in NXT before they were called up to the main roster but following their call-ups, they have seemingly floundered....
Balor came down to the ring and asked Kane—who’d just beaten Jason Jordan to come back and face him. While Kane simply shot down the proposition, he later returned to have a match with Balor. In case you didn’t know… The latter hour of this week’s Monday Night RAW saw Kane defeat Jordan by way of Count-Out following which Balor came down to the ring and RAW cut to commercial break....
One star who was a noticeable absentee last night as part of the show was The Undertaker since many fans believed there could be a match between Sting and The Deadman set up for Crown Jewel if both men were in attendance. Where was The Deadman? Undertaker has arguably had more impact on SmackDown Live’s 20-year history than many of the stars who were part of last night’s show, but The Deadman wasn’t spotted on camera at all last night and the former World Champion himself took to Instagram to explain why....
In case you didn’t know… Raw finished recording after Sami Zayn interfered in Kevin Owens’ triple threat match to help him defeat both Elias and Bobby Lashley and qualify for the Money in the Bank ladder match on June 17th. The cameras saw Zayn attack Lashley in order to continue their rivalry before he then exited the arena alongside Owens but this wasn’t the end of the show. The heart of the matter Lashley made his way back into the ring and was then attacked from behind by Elias before Zayn and Owens made their way back to the ring to begin a three-on-one assault....
In case you didn’t know… For many years, we have seen a very popular YouTube series focusing on the many botches and hilarious moments from wrestling’s past and present titled Botchamania. The series was hosted by user “Maffew”, using clips from the WWE as well as other wrestling organisations. To avoid copyright infringement, the series would modify the WWE clips and alter them accordingly. The company has since caught wind of this and naturally, created their own version of the same formula, focusing on clips from WWE, WCW and ECW shows....
Referring to the brawl the three women engaged in, Evans stated that they lack self-discipline. In case you didn’t know. . . On the go home show of Monday Night Raw, Ronda Rousey, Becky Lynch, and Charlotte Flair went at it after their six-woman tag team match against The Riot Squad. The trio beat the tar out of each other for a good while before security came in and arrested all three women....
Punk has also signed two of the masks to be given away, which will make them very rare collectibles. Punk was also recently spotted at a Cubs gaming, singing “Take me out to the ball game” over the announce system during intermission. WWE.com recently did a poll, asking which former diva fans would most like to see brought back to the company. Surprisingly, Maxine won the vote at 68% beating out Stacy Keibler, Trish Stratus and Kelly Kelly, to name a few....
