Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns vs. Dean Ambrose is all the talk of WWE fans right now. That talk, however, is not really centered on the actual match itself, but more on Reigns' current suspension. Fans are debating the right and wrong of Roman's continued booking at Battleground on July 24, as many feel he should not be used in the match that night. But WWE must press forward here, and that means focusing on the two men who are still working to entertain in this storyline. This storyline is especially important for Rollins, who deserves a well-laid plan heading into Battleground. This ...

As the WWE brand extension approaches, more information is slowly being released about how the company will be structured once Raw and SmackDown are separate entities. Splitting up the shows may be the biggest thing on WWE's plate, but there were still plenty of other headlines from the past week to keep us busy.   Roman Reigns Suspended In a bit of shocking news, Roman Reigns was on Tuesday suspended for 30 days following a wellness policy violation according to WWE.com. It's been a long time since a top star has been suspended for a violation such as this, and it could seriously affect how ...

Money in the Bank was without a doubt an unforgettable night, with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship changing hands not once but twice, and WWE Battleground 2016 is shaping up to be a historic event as well. As the final stop on the road to SummerSlam, Battleground has traditionally featured many memorable moments, including marquee matchups and unexpected title changes. The Miz won the Intercontinental Championship at the 2014 installment, while Seth Rollins put his gold up for grabs against Brock Lesnar just last year. Most champions walked out of Money in the Bank with their titles intact, but will that also ...

At Money in the Bank, Dean Ambrose shocked the world by claiming both the all-important briefcase and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. But the question has to be asked: Is he a transitional champion? Ambrose undoubtedly has a massive number of supporters among the WWE Universe. However, it's also fair to say that he doesn't fit the bill as the successor to John Cena in quite the same way that Roman Reigns does. Reigns was suspended on Tuesday, which suggests that he was always going to lose the title at Money in the Bank. WWE couldn't afford to have its world champion off ...

Even if CM Punk leaves UFC 203 with his pride pummeled and blood dripping from his face, he can claim victory. The former WWE world champion will have climbed a mountain he had long been eyeing from afar. The chances of Punk besting Mickey Gall and succeeding in his UFC debut on Sept. 10 are slim. He may well end up looking like the old, inexperienced outsider he is, but Punk will have chased a dream, leaving a comfortable, familiar setting for potential glory in an alien world. To butcher a famous quote, it is better to fight and have lost, than never ...

Timing threatens to hamstring the magical nature of the feud between WWE world champion Dean Ambrose and his former stablemates Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns. There is no shortage of backstory and animosity as the men who once formed The Shield prepare to collide at the Battleground 2016 pay-per-view on July 24. The history between these men is rich. Their chemistry is stellar. But is WWE going to undermine this potentially all-time-great clash with a hurried narrative? Reigns' 30-day suspension for taking an as-yet-unannounced banned substance promises to hurt this Triple Threat matchup, too. A feud between three men who once thought of each ...

For Seth Rollins, the June 23 episode of WWE SmackDown represented a return to form, but for Sami Zayn, it was an opportunity to prove himself against one of the best wrestlers on the planet. On Thursday night, they delivered a dramatic and action-packed main event that left them both earning "biggest winner" statuses. Without awkwardly attempting to play heel off Roman Reigns despite the usual chorus of boos greeting his former Shield teammate, Rollins was able to open up and be the loud, brash and obnoxious villain that he was born to be. There was no flirtation with popularity or any ...

While Dana Brooke has the raw materials to be a WWE star, her limitations will hinder the manufacturing process. Championship gold is not in the flexing, brash powerhouse's future. Her acting ability will get in the way of her athleticism, and her rushed development will lower her ceiling.  Brooke debuted on the main roster as Emma's sidekick in early May. That allowed their alliance from NXT to continue in a new landscape. But The Total Diva wouldn't be able to stay under her mentor's wing for long. Emma underwent back surgery, as WWE.com noted, just days after Brooke's arrival. The newcomer from NXT shifted ...

Every week on Bleacher Report, I take an in-depth look at WWE SmackDown to recap the results, offer analysis and grade the matches, segments and anything else that takes place on the show, as well as make a few predictions for future events. This week's show featured some great wrestling from the best and brightest WWE has to offer, and to make things even better, some of the matches were first-time meetings. SmackDown goes live on Tuesday nights on July 19, so it would be reasonable to expect WWE to take it easy on the blue brand until the change, but this was ...

The biggest story in pro wrestling right now is WWE's upcoming brand split. Some are skeptical about this move because of how the last brand split turned out, but WWE is a much different company from what it was when the Raw and SmackDown rosters were combined in 2010. In the six years since the original brand extension ended, the WWE roster has gained significantly more depth, and the level of talent has skyrocketed. The quality of matches has improved, the women's and tag team divisions are in much better shape, and the developmental system has become a well-oiled machine thanks to Triple H's efforts ...
