24-year-old Saraya-Jade Bevis, who performs under
the ring name Paige, has been absent from the WWE since June. Although Paige’s month-long
suspension for violation of the WWE Wellness Policy ended more than a week ago,
she was somehow absent from the last two editions ofMonday Night RAW. And now we know why, as
the 24-year-old “Anti-Diva” said in a tweet Thursday afternoon that she will be
undergoing neck surgery.
That certainly
sounds dire, although Paige also wrote that it’s time for her to get the neck
fixed so she can come back to the ring, so it seems the injury may not be
career-ending.
Even
though the rumor mill has continued to churn that injury or no injury, Paige is
leaving WWE — her boyfriend Alberto Del Rio justleft the company for a second time — she
recently addressed the rumors and said she isgoing
nowhere.
Paige
is just the latest in a number of WWE Superstars who have landed on the
operating table in recent months, most notably being Finn Bálor, who earlier
this week underwent astem cell transplantto try and help speed the recovery process of his injured shoulder
along.
A
Japanese comedian gained overnight fame singing about a pen, an apple and a
pineapple. Piko Taro made this catchy song about putting pens inside apples and
pineapples and it's taking over the internet. Dubbed "PPAP",
which stands for Pen Pineapple Apple Pen, the song's YouTube video has received
over 5 million views to date. It has been shared 1 million times in 9Gag.Time says it could be the
next viral hit.
As noted, former WWE star
Ryback appeared on a Las Vegas radio show and revealed that he is currently in
talks with the Bellator MMA promotion and is open to fighting.
Ryback left the WWE
this summer, unhappy with his push, to take independent bookings. Ryback, 34, was a WWE
regular who left the company over contract issues in May and was officially
released in August. He has teased joining TNA
and now Bellator. We do know that The Big Guy has done at least some MMA training since
leaving WWE this summer. Watch Brock Lesnar VS Braun Strowman
While
having mixed success as fighters, pro wrestlers like Lashley, Brock Lesnar and
Punk have all done well as far as drawing television viewers or on
pay-per-view. Lashley and Lesnar were both high-level amateur wrestlers, with
Lashley winning three NAIA titles and being an Olympic hopeful, and Lesnar
winning an NCAA title. Before he became famous in the U.S., Alberto Rodriguez,
better known as Alberto Del Rio, posted a 9-5 record in MMA, but he was also a highly
rated Greco-Roman style wrestler in his youth.
It
seems like another former WWE superstar is leaving the squared circle for the
octagon. Ryan Reeves, better known by his ring name “Ryback” is strongly
considering a jump from the pro wrestling world to the world of MMA.
Kevin Owens,
Chris Jericho, Seth Rollins, Rusev and WWE Clash of Champions: Roman Reigns wins, controversy mars
Championship title all
continued their respective feuds onto Monday Night RAW.
On Monday night Raw, Roman Reigns and Rusev continued
their physical rivalry with a WWE Clash of Champions rematch. During the climactic stages
of the WWE Universal Championship match between Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens,
Owens connected with a scary looking gutbuster from the top rope on Rollins.
The
night after Clash of Champions, there are a ton of questions to answer. Is SethRollinsand Cesaro healthy. How will
the best-of-seven series be settled after Sunday night’s inconclusive seventh
match.
With some
spirited mic work, Foley tells Sheamus and Cesaro they could be a special tag
team. He mentions them facing The New Day on Monday Night Raw.
I’m not sure
Kofi’s face will hold up for that one. Mick Foley has
the nerve to question Stephanie’s intentions and integrity because of her
actions during the CoC main event.
John Cena lost clean to
Dean Ambrose on this week’s WWE SmackDown, the latest sign that the old Cena who beat anyone
and everyone in his path is officially long gone.
John Cena has
been the face of WWE for over a decade, but his time as the company’s top star
is clearly coming to an end. Not only is Cena’s schedule looking more and more
like that of a part-time wrestler, but he’s losing more matches than ever
before.
In fact, if Cena proved
anything on the latest episode of SmackDown when he lost 100 percent clean to Ambrose, it’s that
he doesn’t deserve the constant criticism he continues to get. It needs to
stop. Now. And for good.
The Rock set for
a dream rematch with Brock Lesnar soon? Rumours have been doing the
rounds that 'Fast 8' star Dwayne Johnson, aka, The Rock could be facing combat
athlete Brock Lesnar pretty soon, with the possible events being WWE Clash ofChampions 2016, scheduled for later this month or WrestleMania 33, scheduled
for April next year.
While
“The Rock’s” star power is big, Heyman expectedly turned the tables and instead
boasts that it would be Brock Lesnar who will be the star of the show. Though
all that may depend on perspective, the dish is hardly comes as a surprise.
Brock Lesnar and The Rock are two of biggest WWE superstars and main
draws that will surely make the company a lot of money. Both superstars are
rumored to have a match at WrestleMania 33 next year and the latest
speculations are about the possibility of Lesnar vs. Rock II. Speak WWE www.youtube.com/c/speakwwe
Kevin
Owens will face Seth Rollins at WWE Clash of Champions for the Universal
Championship in a match that, on paper, is exactly whatRaw’s first pay-per-view
headlining match should be. “The Game” is the main reason why Owens is
currently the Universal Champion and why both Rollins and Reigns aren’t, having
cost the latter two a chance at winning the title less than a month ago.
WWE Raw on September 19 culminated in the most dramatic
fashion as the main event was set for a steel cage featuring Roman Reigns and
WWE Universal champion Kevin Owens. It also saw Seth Rollins take on Rusev
while Roman Reigns was rewarded with a United States title match opportunity at
the Clash of Champions against the Bulgarian Brute.
According
to the sources ‘TheBeast’ is set for a feud with WCW legend Goldberg
but says that The Rock “The Great One’ fears him”. Even Brock Lesnar’s advocate
Paul Heyman belives The Rock is scared of his client.
Brock Lesnar is confident and
now we can reveal that Lesnar and his manager believe The Rock, real name
Dwayne Johnson, is running scared. Heyman said: “Notice how The Rock
picks fights with Bray Wyatt, or fights with Rusev and John Cena?
“Notice how The Rock doesn’t pick a fight with Brock
Lesnar?
“Is Brock Lesnar ready for The Rock? Is The Rock ready
for Brock?”
Lesnar versus The Rock would undoubtedly be one of the
biggest main events in Wrestlemania history.
Both
Eva Marie and Paige can now return to the ring as their respective 30-day
suspensions for violating WWE’s talent wellness policy has ended. Paige could
return as soon as this Monday on Raw. However As of Friday Paige is not medically cleared to wrestle. she effectively
quit WWE and retained legal representation to get out of her contract. She
was all but gone from the company and plans were in place to announce her
release. Cooler heads prevailed and she’ll be back in the ring once she’s
healthy.
Monday
is the soonest we could see Paige back on television, as her 30-day suspension
will be completed. But don’t expect to see her in the ring on RAW unless she
gets cleared by show time.

Legendary
wrestling icon and WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan hasn’t been heard or seen on
WWE programming since his infamous racism scandal which cost him his job with
WWE.
In
WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan’s own words, you can make a lot of little mistakes
in his business, but you can’t make many big mistakes. That’s great advice for
a current or future WWE Hall of Famer, but it proves that even “The Immortal
Hulk Hogan” is human and capable of making mistakes. Watch Out WWE Latest on Brock Lesnar opponent at WrestleMania 33
The
combination of the sex tape, the audio that leaked ofHogan using some inflammatory language, and the trial with Gawker was too much for WWE to
handle. There have been rumors of Hulk Hogan returning to WWE for Wrestlemania32, but the rumors have gone up in smoke as opportunities continue to slip by
for Hulk Hogan to bury the hatchet and move onto the future of WWE with Hogan
by the company’s side.
The
fact is that Hulk Hogan is getting older as well. It’s not an excuse. However,
the Chyna situation taught people a lot of things about acknowledging a
performer’s achievements while they’re still with us. At this point, Hogan has
gone through the ringer, his personal life has been cleaned, he’s served some
hard time in exile, so it’s understandable why WWE would be considering
bringing him back. The question is when is the right time.
Shelton Benjamin
is still expected to start working forWWEwhen he's able to, which should be in around 6 months.
WWE Chairman Vince McMahon may be 71 years old,
but he's still in tremendous shape and trains regularly. WWE announced Monday
that McMahon suffered an injury that will force him to undergo surgery, but
he'll be back in the office later this week.
With this being WWE, there's always the chance McMahon's
injury is a part of some bigger storyline on Raw or SmackDown Live. The
71-year-old infamously "died" in June 2007 when his limousine
exploded:

WWE News: Alberto
Del Rio Officially Released by Company. WWE Releases Alberto Del Rio,
Paige's Future Also In Doubt. CM Punk Blogs On If He Misses WWE, Renee
Young Note
Earlier today,
the WWEannouncedthat they'd come to terms with Alberto Del
Rio, a WWE Superstar who'd beensuspendedabout three weeks prior (along with his
girlfriend and WWE Superstar Paige) for his first Wellness Policy Violation.
WWE
has released Alberto Del Rio from his contract with the company, and his
real-life girlfriend Paige could be on her way out as well.
WWE.comsent out the following
statement early Friday announcing Del Rio’s release:
WWE and Jose Rodriguez
(Alberto Del Rio) have mutually agreed upon the terms of his release as of
today, September 9, 2016.
Del Rio returned
to the company at Hell in a Cell just last October, where he shockingly
defeated John Cena to win the United States Championship. But his career was
all downhill from there, highlighted by a failed run as a member of the League
of Nations and a general lack of a push.
Things really
took a turn for the worse last month whenboth
Del Rio and Paige were suspended on August 18for violating the company’s Talent Wellness Program. This came not long
after abizarre incident
involving both superstars at Money in the Bank, one in which Paige was reportedly detained by police.
Here
are some highlights from the press conference, courtesy of S E S coops:
“Alberto said he did not feel comfortable in WWE anymore.
He was losing his passion for wrestling and had nothing left to prove in WWE.
He asked to be released and the request was granted.
He is free to work in Mexico immediately. He can work
anywhere in the United States starting next month. There is no 90-day
no-compete clause.”
On one corner is the most dominant force in professional
wrestling today. He broke the Undertaker's WrestleMania streak, introduced several superstars to Suplex City,
and struck fear into the hearts of many others.
On the opposite end is one of the most beloved wrestlers
in WCW and WWE history. He reportedly went 173-0 against WCW competitors and
"speared" through the biggest of names in the WWE ring.
BillGoldberg has hinted at a possible return to WWE despite his age. The former WCW
and WWE champion is 49 years old.
Goldberg also
ignited talks of a possible match with Brock Lesnar when the interviewer
suggested Brock Lesnar as his opponent in the near future. The wrestler
responded to the suggestion by blowing his nose on a T-shirt with the Beast's
name imprinted on it and ripping it in half.
"I don't
know, can I still do this? Man, I still can do it at 49. Brock, you're
next," Goldberg said.
Lesnar ruled over the ring for the longest time since his
return. He destroyed John Cena, the Undertaker and, most recently, Randy Orton
at SummerSlam 2016. That last match ended with Lesnar cutting Orton's head open
and the Viper needed 18 staples to patch the wound up.
However, a rematch between the two would not be
likely in the near future as Orton got inserted to a feud with Bray Wyatt. This
leaves The Beast open to fight anyone the WWE could throw at him Speak WWE

Eva Marie is in the midst
of her 30-day suspension for violating the WWE Wellness Policy but she is
apparently having a good time. According to the latest rumors, she was able to
film scenes for "Total Divas" at the Bahamas despite being suspended.
Despite recently getting suspended for
a WWE Wellness Policy violation, WWE Superstar Eva Marie is reportedly still
taking part in filming for the reality series,Total Divas. In fact,
Eva Marie and her husband, Jonathan Coyle, are currently in the Bahamas with
The Miz and Maryse and filming material for the show.
WWE superstars who star on
"Total Divas" are under a deal with the E! Network and not the WWE.
She is eligible to return from suspension on September 18, a day before her
birthday, but she will miss SmackDown Live's first brand-exclusive pay-per-view,
Backlash.
Before her suspension, Eva Marie was in-line for
a huge push and she was even rumored to be a favorite in winning the SmackDown
Women's Championship. The WWE also found a way to get her even more heat by getting
out of matches due to several outrageous reasons.
The "Total Divas"
star has been a heat magnet ever since she signed with the WWE but she has
improved in the ring. Since she is coming from a suspension, her push will be
delayed with Nikki Bella being groomed to win the SmackDown Women's title. Speak WWE

WWE legend Goldberg talks potential comeback, rips a
Brock Lesnar Shirt
Interviewer Jonny Gayle then suggested Brock Lesnar as an
opponent, and Goldberg responded by blowing his nose on a Lesnar shirt and
ripping it in half.
Hype
has been building for a potential Goldberg comeback for months, and 2K has beenstealthily hintingat a Goldberg-Brock Lesnar showdown. Both wrestlers have been very
active in promoting the game - Lesnar's on the cover, while Goldberg is a
pre-order bonus - and fans inside the Barclays Center even chanted Goldberg's
name at the end of SummerSlam, hoping the former World Heavyweight Champion
would make an entrance after Randy Orton had been busted open.
The
rumours of a Goldberg return have been hot ever since he was announced as a
playable character in WWE2K17, and it has been fueled even more by his appearances for2K17 promotion. One
of the reasons that people believe that there is a higher possibility now more
than ever is because of the history of legends who had not been spoken of for
years being announced for a2K character and then appearing on WWE Television.
Goldberg is now 49 years
old, but he still looks to be intremendousshape. He could definitely hit a few
spears and jackhammers without much trouble. Speak WWE

wings, thereafter whereas Stephanie McMahon and the GM, Mick Foley could not believe
their eyes.
Kevin Owens
celebrated shouting “it’s my show” aftermath as the crowd chanted “you deserve
it”. Before leaving the ring, Triple H had a stare-down with his wife and Mick
Foley.
He will be the
face of the Raw brand and hence his babyface turn is evident. He will challenge
Owens for the new Universal Championship.
In addition, he
will continue to carry his feud with Triple H, too which will finally culminate
their dream match at Wrestlemania 33 into fruition.
It is worthy to
mention that this match was originally planned for Wrestlemania 32 but got
cancelled once Rollins was out of action due to the knee injury.
