The performances of everyone involved on Saturday night, from Sami Zayn, Roman Reigns to Kevin Owens and even Paul Heyman, were memorable moments of an event, which because of this scene worthy of Hollywood, will never leave the minds of the public. fans in general.  Now, it remains to be seen what will happen with Bloodline, I believe it is the beginning of the end for the group and perhaps for Roman Reigns. Jey Uso has already made it clear after the event that he intends to leave the group, but even if he doesn't, it will be almost impossible to keep the same focus on fighting to keep the tag team titles with his brother Jimmy, who immediately turned against Zayn at Royal Rumble.  WWE knew how to work very well in the possible fall of Bloodline, as they will not lose their future matches due to lack of performance or because they are inferior, but due to emotional issues of a crumbling empire. I believe that Roman Reigns' aggression will increase even more in ...

WWE has not yet commented on the Bella sisters' statements, but it is likely that the situation will be clarified soon.  WWE has always had a history of creative differences with its wrestlers, and this isn't the first time the Bella sisters have publi...

WWE has a rich history of using managers to accompany and guide some of its most dominant wrestling teams. A recent example of this is the wrestling team known as the Authors of Pain, which was managed by legendary manager Paul Ellering during his stint in NXT.  After being promoted to the main roster, Authors of Pain were separated from Ellering and struggled to find success without Ellering's guidance. While they still had some standout moments, they were unable to maintain the same level of success they had in NXT.  Recently, there have been rumors that the Authors of Pain could be preparing a return to WWE, and many fans have speculated that they could do so alongside Paul Ellering. That would make sense, as the dynamic between Ellering and the Authors of Pain was one of the main contributing factors to the team's success in NXT.  If they do make a comeback to WWE accompanied by Paul Ellering, it's likely we'll see a career turnaround and a new opport...

Sami Zayn is about to face a trial by fire on the next episode of Monday Night Raw, when he will be "judged" by Bloodline.  Bloodline, led by Roman Reigns, has been a dominant force in the ring for the past few months and has been looking to prove that they are the true leaders of the WWE.

He believes he is worthy of a place in the group and won't let them take him for granted.  The trial promises to be a close fight, with both parties giving it all they've got.

Ronda Rousey is arguably one of the most iconic and successful WWE wrestlers in recent years, but recent rumors suggest that she is unlikely to participate in the upcoming 2023 Royal Rumble.  The former UFC champion has been a regular in WWE since 2018 and has held numerous titles, including the Raw Women's Championship. She has also been a headliner at the Royal Rumble event, participating in the 2018 and 2019 editions.  However, sources close to Rousey claim that she has no plans to participate in the upcoming Royal Rumble due to personal and professional commitments outside of WWE. Furthermore, she has also been prioritizing her personal life and her family lately.  While Rousey isn't scheduled to participate in the 2023 Royal Rumble, that doesn't mean she can't return to WWE in the future. She is known to be a dedicated wrestler and has a huge fan base, so her absence will certainly be felt by WWE fans.

The match was exciting and both fighters showed why they are the best at what they do. In the end, Steph De Lander emerged victorious, but Jordynne Grace showed that she will continue to fight for her title.  With this addition to the roster, Impact Wrestling has shown that they are always willing to bring in new talent and increase competition in the Knockout's division.

Although there is no further information about the recovery of Randy Orton and his serious back injury, in a recent appearance on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer stated that the “Apex Predator” almost had his career ended in 2022.  According to the journalist, when WWE made the decision to unify the tag team titles, putting Matt Riddle and Orton (until then RAW Tag Team Champions) to face The Usos (SmackDown Tag Team Champions), it was already something planned so that “Viper ” could be removed urgently. As it turns out, after the loss of the tag team titles, Orton was never seen again. The original idea was never to unify the tag team titles, however, the WWE creative team preferred to do so, as they were unable to find another credible partner for Riddle. The word is that it was very difficult to make a duo as close and loved by the public as RK-Bro.
