Breaking Down What Mojo Rawley Needs to Ascend WWE NXT Ladder

Posted by Ryan Dilbert On July - 29 - 2014
Mojo Rawley is one of the most physically gifted prospects on the WWE NXT roster, but he's also one of the rawest. The explosive, powerful, energized talent needs work in order to reach the status which men like Sami Zayn and Adrian Neville have achieved. A more varied move set, increased smoothness in the ring and a wider emotional range during his promos need to be on his checklist as he progresses. When Rawley first arrived at Full Sail University, he seemed to be shooting ever upward. Fans rallied behind him. He piled up wins in squash matches. Once, he and NFL tight ...
In some ways, this should be one of the most exciting rosters the WWE has had in years and years. It's a delightful sprinkling of experienced, older heads (some part-time, some full-time), who complement the younger ones perfectly. With NXT solidifying itself as a credible strand of WWE's makeup in recent years too (the production line has really heated up with the emergence of the likes of The Wyatt Family and Fergal Devitt signing up to the brand), there seems to be a steady stream of midcard stars who have the potential to move up the card. In professional wrestling and the ...

WWE Raw Review: Divas’ Buildup, Paul Heyman and More

Posted by Alfred Konuwa On July - 29 - 2014
Raw is in a rare stretch where shows are closing not with wrestling matches but spoken segments. Monday’s Raw was even rarer, as Stephanie McMahon and Brie Bella carried the main event to kick off the buildup to McMahon’s first match in over 10 years. The McMahon-Bella rivalry may have the potential to create more inroads for Divas wrestling, but make no mistake, this is not a Divas storyline—it’s a McMahon storyline. Cesaro is in need of any storyline that will keep him on television, but Monday saw him take yet another one-off loss—albeit to John Cena. Now without a manager, Cesaro is running out of ...

WWE’s Recent Focus on Diva Storylines Is an Excellent Move

Posted by Tom Beasley On July - 29 - 2014
On July 29, Monday Night Raw's final segment did not involve two brawling men. WWE Creative gave their main event spot to the women of the company. The ongoing bad blood between Stephanie McMahon and Brie Bella took centre stage as the show went off the air, solidifying an increased focus on the ladies of the WWE. This red-hot ending of Raw was the first time the main event segment had featured an all-female clash since Lita and Trish Stratus battled for the Women's Championship in December 2004. As a rabid McMahon was pulled away from Bella, having accepted her challenge for SummerSlam, ...

WWE Rumors: Examining Latest Buzz Around Cesaro, Emma and More

Posted by Ryan Dilbert On July - 29 - 2014
The reported reasons for Cesaro not using one of his favorite weapons and the timing of Emma's return to Raw are the kind of WWE rumors one doesn't want to believe are true. Poor decision-making and pettiness are seemingly at the heart of those choices. These types of stories make fans regret peeking behind the curtain. Other reports from backstage point to imminent budget cuts and rumored plans for Rusev and Jack Swagger at SummerSlam. Those two items will surprise no one. Signs of budget-trimming and flag-waving abound.  It's the buzz around Emma's last appearance on Raw that is as perplexing as it is unexpected.   A Jab ...
Stephanie McMahon and Brie Bella's collision at WWE SummerSlam 2014 is powered by hype and drama in overstock, but it won't be able to deliver once the bell rings. The limitations of the two performers and the limitation of the violence they will produce will leave fans unsatisfied. Kudos to WWE for putting so much focus into a Divas storyline, but these women aren't the ones capable of capitalizing on it. On Monday's Raw, their bout became official after some on-air extortion, tears, name-calling and a cheek-reddening slap. McMahon, one of WWE's finest mic workers, blubbered in the ring on the show's final segment. She ...

Stephanie McMahon vs. Brie Bella Is WWE’s Sleeper Feud for SummerSlam

Posted by David Bixenspan On July - 29 - 2014
A year ago, the idea of a Stephanie McMahon vs. Brie Bella feud would have been preposterous.  Stephanie hadn't been a regular TV character for a long time, having seemingly moved to a reduced role behind the scenes so she had the time to become something closer to a full-time mom.  Brie was just the Bella twin without breast implants. Stephanie McMahon's journey as an on-screen performer has been a curious one.  Brought in out of nowhere as a babyface the night after WrestleMania 15, she was largely terrible, but in a way that almost enhanced her ingenue character. When she turned ...

WWE Raw Results: Biggest Winners and Losers After July 28

Posted by Ryan Dilbert On July - 29 - 2014
For Randy Orton and Cesaro, the July 28 edition of WWE Raw proved that a fitting role is a victory in itself. Orton and Cesaro spent Monday's Raw thriving as a sadist and a mat technician, respectively. Those parts suited both men, and each came through with a memorable performance. Paige, on the other hand, found herself floundering in an ill-suited role. Her frenemy storyline isn't showcasing her abilities yet.  The night also featured a self-assured star's string of consecutive wins end, and a recently unemployed Diva not only make her way back onto the roster but into a major match at SummerSlam.   Winner: ...

WWE SummerSlam 2014: Feuds Most Deserving of Midcard Spot

Posted by Erik Beaston On July - 29 - 2014
SummerSlam is one of the most prestigious pay-per-views of the WWE calendar. As August rapidly approaches, three of the event's highest-profile bouts have been officially announced, while another, Roman Reigns vs. Randy Orton, is a sure thing following the events of the July 28 episode of Raw. With Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Chris Jericho vs. Bray Wyatt and Stephanie McMahon vs. Brie Bella making up the top of the card, few spots remain for some of the company's more heated midcard rivalries. As is the case with most of the major WWE extravaganzas, the company's ...
The history of WWE SummerSlam is dotted with classic matches, including the epic Intercontinental Championship bout between Bret Hart and Davey Boy Smith in 1992, the intense Unsanctioned Street Fight between Shawn Michaels and Triple H a decade later and the titanic clash between in the Mega Powers and Mega Bucks at the inaugural event in 1988. A source of great matches on a seemingly annual basis, SummerSlam has also been home to some hidden gems that have gone somewhat underappreciated. One such bout was a war over the WWE Championship between Kurt Angle and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. With more than ...
