The New Day had to bring out all the stops as all four competitors gave everything they had. Jd McDonagh used Kofi Kingston to hit a tremendous Spanish fly on Xavier Woods that nearly spelled the end of The New Day’s reign.

Not all goodbyes are unfortunate or bad. Some WWE superstars have proved time and again that certain exits are not only reversible, they can also astonish fans and critics alike. These comebacks become a cornerstone in the WWE storylines with the kind of performances fans witness inside the squared circle.

One such superstar who is creating waves of excitement inside the WWE these days is Goldberg. The Icon made a mesmerizing return to the WWE and confronted the World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther, straight away. Goldberg’s return to the WWE is special in many ways. Although this is not the first time the Jackhammer specialist has come back to the WWE ring, it could be his last run as a professional wrestler.

In the light of Goldberg’s high-octane return, here are 10 WWE superstars who returned better than ever after long absences from WWE.

Welcome to this review of the WWE’s Night of Champions Ple, which again takes place in Saudi Arabia and sees the final of both the King of the Ring And Queen of the Ring tournaments! We’ve also got the US Title on the line And the main event, a title match between John Cena and Cm Punk. Let’s get into it!

Match #1: 2025 King of the Ring Final – Cody Rhodes def. Randy Orton The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton tangled in the 2025 King of the Ring Final in a star-studded showdown. This was the first time these Superstars have clashed since The American Nightmare’s return to WWE in 2022, with plenty of history between the two. Rhodes dialed up the torture onto The Viper’s back, targeting Orton’s bullseye of pain, after Orton hit a Superplex on Rhodes that left The Viper reeling.

Making it in WWE isn’t exactly a walk in the park. It takes talent, charisma, the right look, timing, and a whole lot of hustle. Karrion Kross might not have hit that superstar level in the company, but there’s no denying fans were totally behind him. He had that intimidating vibe and a cool presence that made him stand out.

So when WWE let him go in 2021, it caught everyone off guard. The release came as part of a batch of budget cuts, but for fans, it didn’t make much sense. Kross had potential, and people were genuinely confused about why he was let go just when it felt like he was getting started.

WWE’s back on top as one of the biggest wrestling promotions in the world, and honestly, it’s thanks to a whole bunch of things: legendary superstars, epic entrance music, wild storylines, you name it. But there’s one piece of the puzzle that doesn’t always get the credit it deserves: the signature moves.

Classics like the Rko, Tombstone, and Stunner have become iconic. And then there’s the Spear. Tons of wrestlers have tried their hand at it over the years, but only a few have truly nailed it and made it their own.

Over the years, tons of WWE superstars have given the Spear a shot, hoping to make it their signature move. But honestly, no one’s done it quite like Roman Reigns and Bron Breakker.

WWE Night of Champions is right around the corner, and things couldn’t be more intense. The card is stacked with mouthwatering matchups. Randy Orton is set to clash with Cody Rhodes, while Jacob Fatu puts his title on the line against his former Bloodline ally, Solo Sikoa. But the main event that’s got everyone talking? John Cena vs. Cm Punk. Punk’s out to wreck Cena’s dream retirement and steal the spotlight, and maybe the WWE title with it.

With all this chaos brewing, the night promises to be a rage. But before the main show kicks off, don’t sleep on the Kickoff Show.

In the final moments of the first Queen of the Ring Tournament Semifinal Match, Asuka got her knees up when Alexa leaped off the top rope with Twisted Bliss. She then finished Five Feet of Fury with the Empress Impact and secured her place in the Finals of the Queen of the Ring Tournament.

In the first King of the Ring Tournament Semifinal Match, Randy Orton hit the Rko out of nowhere as Sami Zayn was attempting a Helluva Kick.

WWE is hands down the biggest name in pro wrestling. What kicked off as just a dream has grown into a powerhouse that’s gone way beyond the wrestling ring; it’s now a full-blown pop culture icon. Over the years, WWE has become a global sensation with millions of fans tuning in from all corners of the world. But, of course, that kind of success didn’t happen overnight.

It took years of smart planning and some bold moves to get here. Recently, WWE president Nick Khan talked about the company’s mindset during tough times, and it turns out that approach is a major part of why they’ve stayed on top.

Sami Zayn is hands down one of the most influential wrestlers to ever step into the squared circle. Over the years, he’s kept fans hooked with his top-tier wrestling skills and electrifying personality. He’s also racked up quite the list of achievements, including an Nxt Championship, four WWE Intercontinental Championship reigns, and a WWE Tag Team Championship alongside Kevin Owens.

But his journey wasn’t exactly smooth sailing. He recently opened up about the major challenge he had to overcome when he first joined WWE’s main roster.

Rko is more than a finishing move from Randy Orton. Over the years, with its repeated use and impact on rivals, the finishing move from the Apex Predator has become a cultural phenomenon. Fans just can’t stop imagining themselves impersonating the iconic Rko.

But beyond the theatrics and visual appeal of the iconic finisher, Randy Orton’s signature identity was perfected after months of toil and contemplation. Finally, at the tail end of his career, The Apex Predator has revealed how he named his finishing move and explained its origin story.

Match #1: Aj Styles def. Chad Gable The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Chad Gable took it to Aj Styles, who was left discombobulated after a nasty German suplex and an out-of-this-world headbutt from the top rope. Styles went for the Phenomenal Forearm, but Gable reversed it into an Ankle Lock. Eventually, Styles landed the Styles Clash to pick up the win.

In the latest episode of WWE Raw, it was confirmed that John Cena will be locking horns with Cm Punk at the Night of Champions 2025. As John Cena continues his farewell tour, after winning his title against Cody Rhodes, he went on to defend it against Randy Orton at WWE Backlash.

Cm Punk, on the contrary, has suffered a bit of a rough outing since WrestleMania 41, where he was betrayed by his best friend, Paul Heyman. Following that defeat, he has been bloodied by the newfound faction of Seth Rollins on multiple occasions. However, recently, he went after his iconic foe, John Cena, whom he had last competed against in a singles bout more than a decade ago.

Over a decade ago, a steel chair at the back of Roman Reigns from Seth Rollins did not just break the iconic Shield. But it also created a heel character in Rollins that would dominate the WWE for a long time to come. While The Architect of WWE is at odds with almost every superstar in the locker room, the hate from fans has stayed constant throughout his heel run.

Now at the height of his career, Rollins shares the spotlight with his wife, Becky Lynch, who is also an emphatic performer inside the ring. Apart from their synergy outside of WWE, they also share animosity for a prominent WWE superstar who has emerged as a major rival for Rollins in recent times.

Money in the Bank 2025 is right around the corner with some intense and breathtaking matches lined up for the professional wrestling community. This will be the second time that the pay-per-view will be held without Vince McMahon, whose constant presence has been a guiding light for the WWE over the years.

This year’s event promises intense showdowns and the climax of major rivalries, potentially shaping the direction of key storylines and laying the groundwork for future conflicts throughout the year. As the WWE Universe anticipates several high-stakes matches, revisiting past iconic moments highlights why Money in the Bank gained such prominence under Vince McMahon’s leadership.

A major development before this year’s marquee event is the announcement of John Cena’s retirement tour.

Roman Reigns and Cm Punk were outsmarted by Seth Rollins at the show of all shows this year. WWE has been pushing Rollins to become the face of the company ever since the Triple Threat win at WrestleMania 41. Paul Heyman’s support, a new faction for himself, and the increased exposure—all these factors haven’t been able to pull a huge crowd for him.

It felt as if the company was trying to replace Reigns, whose contract expires soon, with Rollins. The Tribal Chief’s factions, first the Shield and then the Bloodline, became some of the prime attractions for WWE in the last decade. Reigns predicted two years earlier that it wasn’t easy for WWE to emulate what he had created.

WWE’s plans with Seth Rollins aren’t going greatly as expected.

When it comes to talking about one of the most dedicated and hardworking wrestlers of WWE, Kevin Owens’ name is out there! The wrestler has been entertaining the fans with his heelish personality, with occasional fits of being goofy. However, there’s no denying that when it comes to competing consistently at the highest quality, he will do it as if it is breathing for him.

With countless memorable matches over the years with the likes of Roman Reigns, Aj Styles, Sami Zayn, and so many more, he has proved his in-ring finesse. However, life had its way when he picked up a neck injury during one of his matches.

This was unlike his other injuries because just a couple of weeks before WrestleMania 41, he was forced to bow out from the annual PPV. However, the heartbreak doesn’t end there because he has a heartbreaking update about his neck.

Match #1: Triple Threat Money in the Bank Ladder Match Qualifier – Stephanie Vaquer def. Liv Morgan and Ivy Nile The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

The final spot for the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match was on the line as Stephanie Vaquer, Ivy Nile and WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Liv Morgan battled. Vaquer, competing in her first match on Raw as a member of the Raw roster, landed the Devil’s Kiss on Morgan and Nile. Nile hit a powerbomb on Vaquer as Vaquer was giving a superplex to Morgan, but Nile could not gain the win. Morgan hit the Oblivion on Vaquer, but Nile tried to steal the victory, leading to the two fighting on the outside.

Seth Rollins has experienced a major resurgence in WWE following the end of the WrestleMania season. The Visionary shocked the world by corrupting Paul Heyman to his side, who betrayed his best friend, Cm Punk, and his Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns. In doing so, Heyman assisted Rollins in winning the main event of WrestleMania 41 Night 1.

After his major win, Rollins and Heyman recruited two monster heels in Bron Breakker and Big Bronson Reed and formed a formidable unit on Monday Night Raw. However, his faction is also suited for a former WWE Champion who has not been booked properly in recent weeks.

With just a week to go for June’s exclusive pay-per-view event, Money in the Bank, WWE wastes no time setting things ablaze with tonight’s segment of Monday Night Raw. The Bok Center was all ears as Cm Punk kicked off the show, hyping up the WWE Universe and addressing that ahead lies his summer.

The superstar hypes up the crowd and says it is high time he gets some gold around his waist. This brings him to walk down memory lane and call out John Cena, warning him that their past feud will be set ablaze once again. The fans were cheering for the superstar, giving their approval of seeing Cena vs. Punk one last time.

However, the Second City still has not forgotten what happened at the 2025 Elimination Chamber and is calling out Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the biggest fraud of WWE.

Hey, wrestling fans, get ready! Vince McMahon has resurfaced and is diving into a new venture following his ouster from WWE in 2024, in a very dramatic fashion as the main man behind the scenes at WWE. 14Th & I is gaining traction, and the Janel Grant lawsuit has put a cloud over his legacy in the industry, to say the least.

So, let’s take a look at what Vince is up to, how much the WWE has changed under Triple H’s leadership, and examine what it all means for fans, superstars, and the wrestling business.

14Th & I: Vince McMahon’s next big thing

Vince McMahon’s new venture, 14Th & I, is a private investment firm that will focus on sports, media, and entertainment. It was registered in September 2024, right where WWE’s headquarters are, which is a smart move. The company has three limited liability companies (LLCs): Holdings,...

Following Tom Cruise’s Top Gun: Maverick, Joseph Kosinski is again set to take us back to the world of speed with Brad Pitt’s F1. While the upcoming F1 movie is expected to be another box office hit, many fans cannot help but wonder how Cruise would have handled the role.

Tom Cruise has been associated with the F1 world for a long time. In 2011, the Top Gun star even collaborated with Red Bull and drove one of their F1 test cars. The video is living proof that the upcoming F1 movie would have looked very different with him.

WWE superstar Sami Zayn was at the top of his game during an unpredictable time in the entire world. This was the pandemic era, as Covid-19 spread to major countries, and several protocols were being followed, including the use of protective masks and maintaining social distancing, along with other strict rules being imposed.

In late 2020, as the pandemic was slowly subsiding yet still ongoing, multiple fields of work, including the entertainment industry, had resumed operations. Renowned Hollywood actor Tom Cruise had begun shooting for his movie, ‘Mission: Impossible.’ However, a viral moment saw him bursting out on set, which led to WWE capitalising on it with its own parody involving Sami Zayn.

Hello WWE Universe! As a huge Roman Reigns fan, I can’t wait to see our Tribal Chief back in action. His last appearance after WrestleMania 41 had us shook, and we are all left wondering when he’ll make his return. I’ve been scouring wrestling news and previous X posts to catch up.

When is Roman Reigns coming back? What’s next for the man who has been the face of WWE for an eternity? Let me break it down for you, from an updated fan’s perspective, to ensure you don’t miss anything.

Roman Reigns’ vacation and why he deserves it

The last time we saw Roman Reigns was on the Raw following April 2025’s WrestleMania 41, when Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and the truly despicable Paul Heyman stood in paradise on the floor after they beat up Roman Reigns.

Roman Reigns holds the WWE title record for...

WWE has gone into unprecedented ways under Triple H. Ever since the game took over from wins McMahon as the chief content officer of the company, we have seen many unexpected alliances and dramatic changes. A recent addition in this regard is that of Seth Rollins and his power-packed faction, who have a different set of ideas about WWE.

While many within the WWE universe are still trying to make sense of the unprecedented change that occurred with his heel turn at WrestleMania 41, followed by an act of betrayal from Paul Heyman, former WWE wrestler Bubba Ray Dudley asked a rather pertinent question to hh about the same.

Roman Reigns continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the WWE ring. Over the last decade, he has forged an empire for himself, and the fans continue to grow fonder of the superstar with every succeeding day. His defeat at WrestleMania 41 left him startled like never before, as he was betrayed by his dearest in the ring, Paul Heyman.

Following the Mania, he wanted to avenge his betrayal, only to be met with stern resistance from the latest addition to Seth Rollins’ faction back then, Bron Breakker. Since then, Roman Reigns has been away from WWE and is rumoured to be back in the Money in the Bank. Apart from his in-ring flair, his connection with The Rock indeed propels the legacy of the Anoa’i family a thousand miles ahead.

What did Roman Reigns have to say about The Rock’s movies? The Rock and Roman...

There are moments in WWE that change the course of action for the characters involved forever. Seth Rollins is no exception to it. The self-styled revolutionary of the WWE was the one who famously attacked Roman Reigns from behind with a steel chair and broke The Shield, a determined anti-establishment faction in the WWE.

Rollins has thrived as a heel in the WWE ever since. His actions have divided the WWE universe during his career. However, Cm Punk, an in-ring enemy of the self-styled WWE’s architect, rightly predicted the pivotal turn in the former WWE Champion’s career.

Match #1: Money in the Bank Triple Threat Ladder Match – Penta def. Chad Gable and Dragon Lee The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Chad Gable had to take on two luchadores in Penta and Dragon Lee to qualify for the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Gable was nearly caught in the crosshairs after Lee came out of nowhere to dive onto Penta over the announce table as Gable leaped out of the way. Gable then attacked Aaa star El Hijo del Vikingo, his opponent at Worlds Collide, who was sitting at ringside. During the fracas, Lee hit a sit-out powerbomb on the American Made leader, but Gable kicked out. Vikingo retaliated against Gable, kicking him off the top rope...

When Paul “Triple H” Levesque first transitioned from his role as a wrestler to a managerial role in WWE, fans were skeptical of how he would perform. Fast forward to 2025, when he took over the company from Vince McMahon and implemented changes that have once again made entertainment wrestling popular among wrestling enthusiasts.

Despite messing up with his plans for the Women’s Division, his creative direction has always received a thumbs-up from the fans and critics. Take, for example, how the idea of John Cena turning heel was a big risk, as he is in his final stretch as a wrestler, but with a clever approach and careful storytelling, the idea has been a big hit.

However, he has his limitations, as The Game can’t fulfill everyone’s wishes, as Goldberg’s retirement dream might be something a little too much for the COO.

Triple H can’t...

Few wrestling families have left as significant a mark on the industry as the Anoa’i family, widely known as the Bloodline. For generations, they have dominated professional wrestling, and the legacy continues today with all its members achieving massive success in WWE.

Stars like Jey and Jimmy Uso, their younger brother Solo Sikoa, and their cousin Roman Reigns, who stands as the most accomplished of them all with one of the longest championship reigns in WWE history, have solidified their status in the company. Reigns is often hailed as the Tribal Chief. But what if I told you that Roman Reigns and the other Bloodline wrestlers aren’t actually cousins at all?

Yes, Roman Reigns and the other contemporary Bloodline wrestlers are not actually familial. Yeah, I know you must have heard...

With a career full of broken tables, Terrance Michael Brunk, popularly known by his in-ring name Sabu, has proved himself to be one of the last hardcore stars of the game. The man who brought the fight to his opponents, performing jaw-dropping moves and his iconic springboard moonsault. Truly, a wrestling icon and a deserving name in WWE’s Hall of Fame.

Sadly, the world was sent into a state of shock when the veteran wrestler passed away after making his final appearance in one last epic match in the Tri-State Wrestling Alliance. While the world mourned the demise of the WWE and Ecw legend, Sami Zayn brought the legend’s fighting spirit to tonight’s Raw.

However, that was not all because the Canadian star paid a heartwarming homage during his match against Seth Rollins and Finn Balor, leaving the fans praising him on social media.

Sami Zayn gave...

Ever since Seth Rollins has joined forces with Bron Breakker, it has been absolutely crazy in the squared circle. Now to add to that element of threat and menace, there was a new name on the list and that is of Bronson Reed. There were talks of Evolution 2.0 and The Shield 2.0 but looks like WWE has finally forged a faction which has not only exceeded all expectations but is expected to run riots for a while.

The trio of Breakker, Rollins and Reed will need some significant opposition to confront them. Whether it is going to be Cm Punk, Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn joining forces or will there be someone else coming down the pike to confront the mighty trio, only time can reveal it all.

Paul Heyman left the pop-culture fans in utter frenzy, invoking Terminator in his latest promo Paul Heyman with Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker...

It was another exciting episode of WWE Raw that did well to add more glitz and glam to the upcoming Money in the Bank. With a list of impressive matches being lined up, there was some swashbuckling action for the fans to be on their toes at all times. With superstars like Seth Rollins, Cm Punk, Sami Zayn and Finn Balor in action, the fans had lots to talk about.

Apart from the big matches, Penta’s triple-threat action against Chad Gable and Dragon Lee played an integral part in hyping up the fans. Kairi Sane also racked up another impressive win against Liv Morgan, with a bit of an extended involvement from Roxanne Perez, who had visibly had Raquel Rodriguez edgy. The latest Raw was still a hit despite major storylines not being touched.

Where did Penta go wrong in his match-up against Chad Gable? Chad Gable ahead of...

Guess who’s back, back again… It’s Saturday Night’s Main Event! Yes, the classic WWE brand returns for a much-anticipated show, and the third such “special” since the brand’s return last December! Let’s get straight into it and see what went down on this week’s show!

Match #1: Seth Rollins & Bron Breakker def. Cm Punk & Sami Zayn The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

The devilish duo of Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker reaffirmed that Monday Night Raw belongs to them as they defeated Cm Punk and Sami Zayn in an incredible tag team match. The chaos started before the bell as all four Superstars brawled in the ring before the official got control, setting the tone for the wild fight. The uber-athletic Breakker shined with his incredible brute force, but the paradigm shifted once Punk tagged in and cleaned house before withstanding a Pedigree from Rollins.

Cm Punk has cultivated the image of an anti-establishment figure and the kind of wrestler who makes consequential decisions within WWE. Throughout his career, his actions and choices have triggered a chain of events that either shaped or derailed the future trajectory of the company.

This was evident in 2014, when he won the WWE Championship from John Cena and then exited through the crowd, disappearing among a sea of fans and bidding farewell to the WWE Universe.

His departure from the company was seen as the loss of a major talent, disappointing fans who consistently cheered for and appreciated the self-styled “Gts” icon wherever he went. However, Punk was on the verge of a decision that would have changed the course of history for WWE and his professional career, too.

We might not know it yet, but The Miz predicts the next WWE Goat. He shared that once Seth Rollins is done with his career, he would surely sit at the top of the industry, replacing John Cena. The WWE Hall of Famer praised Rollins as a great in-ring technician, calling him unbelievably talented.

The two strong performers have faced each other several times inside the ring since Rollins joined WWE in 2012. They even battled in a WrestleMania event for the Intercontinental Championship, which also featured Finn Balor. Currently, the Visionary is one of the most promising talents to lead the WWE’s future roster of wrestlers.

On Saturday May 24 2025, NBC broadcasts Saturday Night’s Main Event!

Episode 2 Episode Summary

The upcoming episode of “Saturday Night’s Main Event” promises to be an exciting one, airing on NBC. Fans can look forward to a thrilling night of wrestling action, featuring some of the biggest names in the sport. The atmosphere will be electric as the event takes place at the Yeungling Center in Tampa, Florida.

In the main event, World Heavyweight champion Jey Uso will put his title on the line against social media star Logan Paul. This match is highly anticipated, as both competitors have their own unique styles and fan bases. Jey Uso, known for his impressive in-ring skills and determination, will face a formidable challenge in Logan Paul, who has proven to be a skilled athlete despite his background outside of wrestling. The stakes are high, and fans are eager to see if Uso can successfully defend his championship.

The professional wrestling fans were left shocked at the end of the 2023 WWE Survivor Series Premium Live Event. Just as the cameras were about to go off the air, the music ‘Cult of Personality’ hit, and Cm Punk made his much-awaited return to the Stamford-based promotion after ten long years.

The Best in the World walked through the curtains to one of the loudest pops in WWE history. He came back to cement himself once again as one of the top superstars of all time. However, his second coming has not been much of a success, and to prove our case, look no further than his record in matches. That made his tenure under Triple H worse than what Punk was as a superstar under Vince McMahon’s regime.

Ever since WrestleMania 41, WWE has been on a gloomy curve. What was supposed to be another grand edition of the Showcase of Immortals could only plummet deeper into madness. Apart from the main event of the first night, which featured the likes of Seth Rollins, Cm Punk, and Roman Reigns, the rest of the event had its fair share of challenges.

To make it worse, the main event of the second night featuring Cody Rhodes and John Cena didn’t hit anywhere close to what was a grand main event in WrestleMania 40. Following Mania, WWE has tried various tricks to alter its course of doom by bringing in the likes of Bron Breakker with Seth Rollins, Cm Punk and Sami Zayn coming together, however, all these moves haven’t been to much avail.

Seth Rollins has dabbled in acting and found a measure of success outside the wrestling ring.

Seth Rollins interfered in the Monday Night Raw match between Jey Uso and Bron Breakker. Fans learned that Rollins had formed a faction with Breakker in WWE, with Paul Heyman as their manager. During the match between Uso and Breakker, Heyman interfered by pulling Uso’s legs when he was about to attack Breakker.

When Uso turned his attention to Heyman instead and got ready to have a go at him, Rollins appeared out of nowhere and kicked Uso to the ground. However, fans noticed that Rollins was having another little fighting match going on with his jeans. He suffered a slight wardrobe malfunction after his attack on Uso.
