Sting's debut, Brock Lesnar's title win and Daniel Bryan's ...

During last week's Divas match on Raw, a pocket of fans chanted for Tyson Kidd. An otherwise forgettable moment embodied WWE's latest revolution. Kidd stood ringside in a supporting role as his wife, Natalya, competed. But his antics as an obnoxious, jealous spouse made him the center of attention.  Kidd's effectiveness in such a small role is a sign of the times. In a more cynical era, attention spans are at a premium. One can't help but watch Kidd's growing popularity and wonder if Matilda the Bulldog was before her time. With a WWE product optimized for social media, anything is liable to ...

WWE's tag team division is set to get a major boost in the form of two gladiators when The Ascension debuts. Viktor and Konnor dominated the NXT tag landscape for the last year-plus. They now get their shot on the main roster, the duo scheduled to debut on Monday's Raw, per WWE.com. The Ascension have the look, cohesiveness and brute force to quickly become one of the division's highlights.

How that battle plays out, what direction WWE sends them in and ...

As WWE gears up for WrestleMania 31, a large question mark hangs over just which wrestler John Cena will face at the Santa Clara show. Ideally, the bookers will realize that rising heel Rusev is the best possible choice of foe. Granted, some fans might prefer a bigger star like Sting or Hulk Hogan to be Cena’s opponent. Look beyond the mere cheap thrill of a “big-time match,” though, and WWE writers electing to go with Rusev as a challenger has many more advantages. For one thing, there is every chance that Rusev and Cena can deliver a sterling showing at the ...

The journey of Seth Rollins to the top of WWE and main event status happened seemingly overnight. Blasting former Shield teammates Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose allowed Rollins to break free from the pack, to leave his fellow Hounds of Justice behind and establish himself as one of the faces of WWE's bright future via singles competition. Of course, the fact he was aligned with the most powerful force in wrestling, The Authority, did not hurt matters. Soon, he was Mr. Money in the Bank, scoring numerous wins over Ambrose and was Triple H and Stephanie McMahon's "golden boy," the top villain in the ...
