The first Monday Night Raw after Clash in Paris delivered, as it was predicted that the show would be action-packed and stuffed with big names and moments that left us agape. However, it felt the absence of John Cena, who delivered a 5-star match against Logan Paul. Nevertheless, fans should not feel disappointed because, following the aftermath at the PPV, new storylines have already started to develop.

The September 1 segment of the Red Brand was live from París La Défense Arena, which recapped the major events from the Ple and the important events that will take place later in the show. With that being said, the special episode featured five...

The main event of WWE Clash in Paris was not just memorable for Becky Lynch costing Cm Punk the World Heavyweight Championship, but also because it recreated an iconic moment from Survivor Series 2009. The moment that is being referred to here is from the Triple Threat Match featuring John Cena, Shawn Michaels, and Triple H.

During the beginning of the match, ‘The Heartbreak Kid’ knocked out his buddy Hunter, leaving ‘The Cenation Leader’ shocked. A similar incident happened last night at the PPV, when Cm Punk dropped Jey Uso with a kick of his own. This left Seth Rollins shocked and LA Knight stunned, recreating one of the most-watched clips of all time.

Becky Lynch took everyone by surprise at Clash in Paris. She featured in the main event for the night and delivered a low blow to Cm Punk during the dying moments of the match. With her unpredictable attack on Punk, she paved the way for her husband, Seth Rollins’ victory.

While Seth Rollins did manage to retain the World Heavyweight title, the WWE universe was left with more questions than answers towards the end of the night in Paris. The most important one is whether her arrival at ‘The Vision’ is good or bad for business.

The standout moment at Clash in Paris can be interpreted in several different ways.

Last night, WWE Clash in Paris ended in absolute chaos, leaving the fans at the París La Défense Arena on their feet. The fans witnessed stacked matches featuring some of the biggest WWE Superstars and moments that will stick out for the wrong reasons.

The WWE commentary team spilled the beans regarding Aj Lee’s potential return at the recently concluded Clash In Paris. The incident took place shortly after her husband, Cm Punk, lost to Seth Rollins in the fatal four-way clash for the World Heavyweight Championship featuring LA Knight and Jey Uso.

Rollins’ wife, Becky Lynch, became the primary factor behind Punk’s loss. Lynch disrupted the 46-year-old’s momentum with an interference, helping her husband bag the World Heavyweight Title.

Watching Rollins claim the championship with his wife’s help, the Clash In Paris commentators, Big E and Jackie Redmond, highlighted that Punk’s wife, Lee, would be gutted by his...

WWE fans need Aj Lee back in the ring after what Becky Lynch did to Cm Punk to save her husband’s championship title at Clash in Paris. As Punk was about to deliver a Gts to Seth Rollins, a masked assailant low blowed Punk and brought him down for Rollins. The World Heavyweight Champion then delivered a curb stomp and pinned Punk to retain his title.

The masked assailant was revealed to be none other than Rollins’ wife, Becky Lynch. Teaming up Rollins and Lynch made perfect sense currently, due to their storylines. However, fans also see this as the perfect moment for WWE to bring back Aj Lee,...

WWE Clash in Paris Results delivered a night of high stakes, surprise interference, and memorable matches that will echo in WWE’s international tour history. Here’s how the show played out at Paris La Défense Arena on August 31, 2025.

In the main event, Seth Rollins outlasted Cm Punk,...

Aj Lee has been the subject of renewed discussion following the explosive finish at WWE‘s Clash in Paris. Tonight’s event may have opened the door to an in‑ring return for the retired superstar.

At the main event of Clash in Paris—which took place on August 31, 2025—Seth Rollins retained the World Heavyweight Championship in a Fatal Four‑Way match against Cm Punk, Jey Uso, and LA Knight. The bout ended dramatically when Becky Lynch intervened, delivering a low blow to Cm Punk and helping Rollins secure the pin.

That moment triggered a wave of speculation about Aj Lee’s return. A fan in the crowd held up a sign reading “Cm Punk,...

WWE presented Clash in Paris on August 31, 2025, with a card built around star-driven showdowns. As ESPN tracked live, WWE Clash in Paris 2025 featured John Cena vs. Logan Paul and a world title clash between Seth Rollins and Cm Punk. The raucous Paris crowd added big-fight energy to a night that mixed spectacle with pivotal storyline turns.

The most dramatic turn came in the world title bout. As reported by CBS Sports, Becky Lynch interfered and ultimately cost Cm Punk the world championship against Seth Rollins, a swerve that will fuel the fallout heading into the fall. Rollins left Paris with the title after the chaos, while Punk’s hunt was...

Becky Lynch defeated Nikki Bella on Sunday, August 31, 2025, at WWE Clash in Paris to keep hold of the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Title, as first reported by Bleacher Report. The result cements Lynch’s standing atop the division, while Nikki Bella’s bid to capture the gold came up just short on a stacked international showcase.

The international setting gave every matchup added buzz,...

Last week’s episode of Raw ended in absolute chaos after Bron Breakker scored a victory over LA Knight with a huge assist from Seth Rollins. But Breakker and Rollins weren’t solely satisfied with collecting a W — they also wanted to put a beating on Knight after the bell rang. That prompted Jey Uso to intervene, then Cm Punk pulled up for extra assistance, clearing the ring of Breakker and Rollins.

But just as soon as Punk, Knight, and Uso united, they imploded in a physical altercation that ended with Uso standing tall.

At Clash in Paris, Punk, Knight, Uso, and Rollins came to blows in a fatal four-way...

Sami Zyan has finally managed to become the WWE United States Champion, and judging by the easter eggs and the way he is being booked, it seems like he might become the next Grand Slam Champion before John Cena. This championship victory was the first step towards achieving the ultimate goal in Lyon, France.

In a shocking match against Solo Sikoa on the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown, The Underdog managed to claim the title for himself. Ever since he set foot in the promotion, he had never managed to win the US Championship before, which finally changed on August 29th, 2025.

Is WWE Raw shifting to a new start time for September 2025? In an exclusive report from WrestleVotes (via Wrestle Talk), WWE Raw will kick off at 7 Pm Eastern for three weeks, that is, on September 15th, 22nd, and 29th. The renowned media website mentioned that a source came forward, stating that this change was made not so long ago and how it performs in an “earlier start-up against Monday Night Football.” Check out the tweet below:...

WWE superstar Seth Rollins is joining NFL Network’s Good Morning Football and its syndicated sibling, Gmfb: Overtime, as a guest host this season.

Rollins has been a recurring guest on the morning show over the years and hosted during the 2024 season. The wrestler is set to make appearances alongside co-hosts Jamie Erdahl, Kyle Brandt, Manti Te’o, and Sherree Burruss, who returns to cover the latest news and contribute to special segments.

Currently, Rollins holds the title of WWE World Heavyweight Champion and is a passionate Chicago Bears fan. Earlier this year, Rollins made an appearance at the NFL Draft, where he showed off his skills in front of cameras and audiences, making a pick for the Bears. Rollins has also subbed for Rich Eisen as a guest host.

Rollins joins Good Morning Football following some cast changes with the exit of Akbar Gbajabiamila after one season and Peter Schrager’s exit after nine.

The last televised appearance for Shinsuke Nakamura was on June 13, 2025, episode of Friday Night SmackDown, when he was eliminated from the King of the Ring tournament. Since then, he has been absent from WWE programming. Apparently, WWE’s focus on promoting younger talents, as per Wrestling Observer Figure Four Online, is a major reason behind his sudden disappearance from the squared circle.

Shinsuke Nakamura is, without a doubt, one of the greatest Japanese WWE superstars to have ever stepped into the ring. But, with time, fans have been concerned about his fading importance in existing storylines. This has stoked speculations about whether he will be released by the company at...

WWE Champions of black descent in the last decade included Bobby Lashley, Big E, and Kofi Kingston. Lashley was the most successful black WWE superstar in this regard. He became Champion for the first time on March 1, 2021, for 196 days after defeating The Miz. Lashley became Champion on a separate occasion for 21 days after defeating Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble 2022, but injury issues turned out to be detrimental to his prospects.

Kofi Kingston had a less popular run in the WWE than Lashley. He defeated Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35 to win the title. He held the title for 180 days before losing it to Brock Lesnar on the debut episode of SmackDown on Fox.

If you are looking for something new to watch, the most popular shows in the United States right now cover a wide range of genres.

Welcome to our review of this past Monday’s episode of WWE Raw, right here on Nerdly! Let’s see what went down on this week’s show, which emanated from right here in the UK, in Birmingham…

Match #1: Dragon Lee def. Jd McDonagh The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

When Finn Bálor got caught on the apron with an obvious malicious intent early in the match, the official wasted little time ejecting him from ringside. Although Dominik Mysterio soon took Finn’s place and interfered, Aj Styles emerged from out of nowhere to neutralize Dirty Dom. With the playing field level, Dragon Lee defeated Jd McDonagh with Operation Dragon.

Ozzy Osbourne‘s daughter, Kelly Osbourne, is not happy with Becky Lynch and WWE after the wrestler’s jab at the Black Sabbath singer. On Monday Night Raw set in Birmingham, Lynch brought up Osbourne’s name during her promo with Nikki Bella. Kelly bashed Lynch for the insulting comment and called her a “disrespectful dirtbag.”

In her Instagram stories, Kelly Osbourne commented, “Birmingham would not p*ss on you if you were on fire.” She further bashed WWE for allowing such disrespect against her late father. However, Kelly mistakenly tagged a fan account of Lynch instead of the star herself in the story. The music legend passed away on...

Over the years, Logan Paul has been in a number of memorable matches that have made him a top-tier wrestler. Two years ago, when The Maverick was having an intense beef with Seth Rollins, they decided to settle it on the grandest stage of them all, WrestleMania 39. Despite the match being 16 minutes and 57 seconds long (via YouTube), it was on a whole other level, thanks to the distinct wrestling styles of both wrestlers.

While Paul took it to the skies, Rollins has a mixed arsenal, making the most of his opportunities. The match was set up perfectly, consisting of strong sequences, top rope action, and Ksi appearing in a Prime...

Does John Cena love to bully young WWE Superstars during a promo face-off? On August 26, 2025, Baron Corbin appeared as a guest on the Busted Open podcast (via X), stating how The Prototype will “have no mercy on the microphone,” and this is his way of helping talent around him to grow, and he gave the example of Roman Reigns. Corbin said,

We watched him murder Roman on live television, from the drug test pop to the lack of promo skills – he cut Roman’s seeds off in that promo. He’s going, ‘If you can come back from that and prove me wrong, I will help you to take the keys to the kingdom.

August 25th’s segment of Raw has left Roman Reigns flabbergasted, and that too for interesting reasons. The special edition of the Red Brand was kicked off by The Otc (via YouTube). The Birmingham crowd was roaring for him as he declared how he has got some “big plans” for the current year and the year following it. The cheers made him remember his ‘The Bloodline’ days.

He expressed his disappointment in how he had lost it all, and everything was predicted by Cody Rhodes a year and a half ago. What followed left Reigns flabbergasted as the crowd booed at the mention of his name, prompting him to say,...

Clash in Paris 2025 will reportedly be WWE’s last pay-per-view event on Peacock.

John Cena vs. Logan Paul tops the bill. A World Heavyweight Title Fatal 4-Way and two grudge matches round out the show. As always, the lineup is subject to change before bell time.

Early reporting teased “three big matches” before everything was official. That framed expectations as WWE finalized announcements. (Newsweek)

How to watch WWE Clash in Paris 2025

U.S. fans can stream on Peacock starting at 2:00 p.m. Et.

Last week on Raw, Jey Uso overcame Bron Breakker in an Extreme Rules match after LA Knight, Cm Punk, and Roman Reigns helped him stave off Seth Rollins and Bronson Reed. It was also a night that saw Naomi announce her pregnancy and relinquish the WWE Women’s World Championship as she prepares to step away for an extended period.

That wasn’t the only big WWE headline of the week, as news broke that John Cena’s final match will come at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December and WWE premium live events will be streaming on ESPN starting with Wrestlepalooza on Sept. 20.

So what’s next? Scroll...

With just one week away from Clash in Paris, WWE has started its tour for the upcoming premium live event. The tension is higher than ever in the blue brand, as last week was full of chaos. The latest segment of SmackDown took place at the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland. Tonight’s segment was kicked off by Becky Lynch, who received a hero’s welcome in her hometown.

However, that’s not all, because the show featured several interesting matches and segments, featuring John Cena in a promo faceoff against Logan Paul, fans were thrilled to see him appearing for the last time and filled the arena with his name.

Daniel Cormier created a major talking point after he pointed out the injury scar to Brock Lesnar during an interaction with Shannon Sharpe at Club Shay Shay. This memorable blow Lesnar received was during his fight against Cain Velasquez at UFC 121 on October 23, 2010.

The Beast Incarnate was badly injured and subsequently defeated in this intense fight. It would go down as a memorable fight for Lesnar, as it created a pivotal turn in his professional wrestling career, including a highly anticipated WWE return.

“Wrestlepalooza” will be the final time Cena wrestles in Indianapolis as he continues his 2025 retirement tour.

“On September 20, WWE and ESPN are coming together for a can’t-miss event to kick off our new partnership,” said WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque. “The biggest Superstars in WWE. The biggest brand in sports media. Are you ready?”

Previously, Peacock held the rights to WWE’s live specials, including iconic staples like “Wrestlemania.

ESPN is going to the mat for a special WWE event much sooner than expected.

The Disney sports-media giant will host “Wrestlepalooza,,” a new live event on the professional-wrestling giant’s calendar, on September 20.

The event, which will take place in 2025 Royal Rumble host city Indianapolis, will begin streaming live on the new ESPN service at 7 p.m. Et/4 p.m. Pt.

This means that, as of September 20, ESPN will become the exclusive domestic home for all of the WWE’s premium live events. The rest of this year’s PLEs, including Crown Jewel and Survivor Series, will also stream on the new platform.

Match #1: Iyo Sky def. Raquel Rodriguez The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

For the first time, Iyo Sky battled Raquel Rodriguez. Sky stunned Roxanne Perez, who was ringside, and Rodriguez with an immense dive to the outside. Rodriguez, however, caught Sky before driving her straight into the ring post. Just when Rodriguez had Sky in place for the Tejana Bomb, Sky countered with a hurricanrana before hitting Over the Moonsault to win the match. After the bout, Perez and Rodriguez looked to beat down Sky until Rhea Ripley saved her.

My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Penta def. Xavier Woods The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

To compensate for their mistake, they shared a picture of The Otc with the caption “#WWERaw reactions.” To add to the confusion of the whole situation, WWE France shared a poster for Clash in Paris, with Roman Reigns in it. Check out the poster below:

By now, we're sure you all know how much Captain America: Brave New World's Serpent Society changed. Plans for them to be a group of superpowered villains were scrapped, and Rosa Salazar and Seth Rollins ended up on the cutting room floor.

The group, whose upgrades reportedly came from Ironheart's Ezekiel Stane, ultimately became a largely generic team of mercenaries—the "Serpents"—led by Giancarlo Esposito's Sidewinder.

It seems Captain America: Brave New World was in a constant state of flux, as we now have a first look at Michael Blackbear Uwandi's early designs for a version of Sidewinder who wielded more than just a gun.

"Serpent Society for Captain America Brave New World. Very early iteration of nano tattoos," the artist wrote on Instagram. "The snake skin mask was the idea of a 'first phase' transformation for the characters. This was the first take on Side...
