On Monday’s Memorial Day episode of WWE Raw, 15-time world champion John Cena will make his return to the company after being on the shelf since Jan. 7 following shoulder surgery. Cena’s absence has left a void WWE tried to fill with several Superstars, but there is no replacing the most popular wrestler on the active roster. With almost six months away from the ring, the WWE Universe finally had the opportunity to miss Cena—something that isn’t typically possible when he shows up every week for Raw. As wrestling fans prepare to get back Mr. Hustle, Loyalty and Respect, here is a ...

WWE is entering perhaps the most exciting time it's seen in years. Not only is the New Era taking off in terms of popularity, but now the brand split is also bringing new attention and speculation like never before. Fans want to know if the split is indeed best for business. They want to know which talents will land on what program. But they also want to know how all of this will be handled. Much of the talk has focused on the men's championships, but fans can't forget about the Women's Championship. Will WWE add a second title? Charlotte is the champ ...

After two years, Roman Reigns will finally get his hands on Seth Rollins at a pay-per-view at Money in the Bank. However, the landscape has changed. The two men will vie for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in Las Vegas on June 19. Rollins looks to reclaim the title he never lost, while Reigns seeks revenge against Rollins for his incessant interference in the ring. Before we explain the road to Money in the Bank, let's examine the rivalry between Reigns and Rollins, particularly back to their WWE debuts. Reigns and Rollins formed The Shield with Dean Ambrose and interfered in the main ...

For the seventh consecutive year, WWE Money in the Bank 2016 will host the always-exciting ladder match to determine the new Mr. Money in the Bank. The winner of the match will earn the opportunity to contend for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at any time and place of his choosing. This past week's episodes of Raw and SmackDown saw the matchup start to take shape. Six qualifying matches were held in total, with the seventh spot likely to be filled some time next week. Anticipation is already at an all-time high for the ladder match due to the current crop of ...

It has been a crazy week for the WWE Universe. WWE made a huge announcement Wednesday that will change the company in a big way, and it has fans arguing about whether it's the right move. Let's take a look at the biggest WWE stories from the past week.   Brand Split Returning Ever since Shane McMahon returned, rumors of a brand split have been circulating on social media, and it looks like we finally have our answer. Shane and Stephanie McMahon appeared on WWE.com to make the special announcement, but many details are still being kept under wraps. We know Raw and SmackDown will hold ...

If WWE crafted the ideal Superstar in a laboratory underneath the Performance Center, it would look a lot like All-Pro NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski. The 6'6", 265-pound New England Patriot and his fiery personality would be right at home in the squared circle. He even has a wrestling-ready nickname—The Gronk. Images of the Patriots touchdown machine stepping into the ring are now floating in many heads thanks to Gronkowski bringing up the possibility of joining WWE when his NFL career is done. If that ever happens, he would thrive as a special attraction, becoming one of the most successful athlete-turned-wrestlers to date. Think Lawrence Taylor mixed with Floyd Mayweather Jr. Gronk's friendship with ...

This week, WWE shook the wrestling landscape to its core, confirming the long-rumored brand split and scheduling it for July. There's plenty of speculation about whether SmackDown will have its own identity in relation to Raw, if a new world title is on its way and where various members of the roster will be headed. However, one name seems to have been left out of the discussion—Brock Lesnar. Of course, an athlete of Lesnar's caliber may well be excluded from the draft. Much like The Undertaker, The Beast Incarnate is the type of competitor who isn't confined to the day-to-day realities of being ...

Wednesday's announcement from World Wrestling Entertainment that SmackDown will go live every Tuesday night beginning on July 19 and, more importantly, that WWE will feature distinct rosters for both the blue brand and flagship show Raw shook the wrestling world to its core. While the move has generated considerable excitement across the Internet and will open opportunities for Superstars who may not have otherwise appeared on either Raw or SmackDown, it understandably raises questions about NXT. As the hottest brand in professional wrestling, it features some of the most talented men and women in the industry. But what happens when WWE's main-roster brands ...

On paper, having Dolph Ziggler welcome Baron Corbin to the WWE main roster by way of an intense, back-and-forth feud made sense. The result hasn't been what WWE Creative had to be hoping for, though. Corbin is looking strong as an indignant, prowling predator. Ziggler, as usual, is excelling at making his opponent look good. However, the rivalry is just not clicking. Blame a strange narrative arc, not taking advantage of a key opportunity at Extreme Rules and WWE making this such a low priority. The Lone Wolf is poised to devour Ziggler and wrap this story up soon. As tepid as things have become, ...

As 2016 marches on, it has become more difficult to find a single Superstar who has made more of his latest opportunity than The Miz, something he did once again Thursday night en route to becoming the biggest winner of the May 26 episode of SmackDown. The Hollywood A-Lister and intercontinental champion headlined this week's broadcast, defending his title against the man who defeated him on Raw to earn a spot in the Money in the Bank ladder match on June 19, Cesaro. Clearly an inferior technician in comparison to The Swiss Superman, Miz would have to use his cunning and ...
