  • Jeff Hardy Says Planned Autobiography Will Deal With Years Of Alocholism

    Matt and Jeff Hardy\’s lives and careers will be the subject of a pair of wrestling autobiographies, the legendary brothers have shared. Speaking to The Wrestling History Channel, Matt shared that both men could write individual autobiographies given all that has happened in and out of the ring.

    Jeff then shared that he has already began working on his book. Jeff won\’t hold back, as he shared that his book will deal with his past alcoholism head on.

    \”I got four years’ worth of journaling throughout my alcoholism. So, I’ve already started trying to go back to each page and write one, but it’s a huge project. I might end up needing a little help.\”

    These books won\’t be the first time that fans will get to read about the lives of Matt and Jeff Hardy. In 2003, the pair penned \’Exist 2 Inspire,\’ while both were with WWE. Given the date, the book would miss several key moments of the pair\’s lives, including their runs in TNA Wrestling, WWE return in 2017, and issues with the law.

    Currently, Matt and Jeff are competing in TNA, where they hold the TNA World Tag Team Titles. The duo also hold the 4th Rope Wrestling Tag Team Titles, the NXT Tag Team Titles, and most recently won tag gold for House of Glory Wrestling. The pair will battle Team 3D (Bully Ray & Devon) at TNA Bound for Glory 2025.

    With a career most tag teams could only dream of, the lives of Matt and Jeff will make for a thrilling read. Time will tell if these ideas ever make it to bookshelves, but Jeff is already working on making his book a reality.

  • Stevie Turner Is Excited To Wrestle Again After WWE Departure

    Stevie Turner is excited to get back in the ring now that her tenure with WWE has come to an end. On X, Turner shared her excitement.

    Turner had just 52 matches during her tenure with WWE, a run that began upon her signing in March 2021. Her post hints at frustrations over feeling underutilized as an in-ring talent within the promotion. Turner\’s most recent match was in February 2025, where she was on the losing end of a tag-team match at an NXT live event.

    In March 2025, Turner was announced as the General Manager of Evolve, though the English performer later dubbed herself as Evolve\’s Prime Minister. This role would have seemingly ended Turner\’s in-ring career with WWE, in favor of being an on-screen authority figure.

    Before WWE, Turner wrestled on the UK independent scene as Bobbi Tyler and became a six-time champion across various promotions. She also wrestled for STARDOM, where she was part of the Tokyo Cyber Squad.

    Now, Turner/Tyler is ready to re-establish herself as an in-ring threat. Her post shares how being in WWE isn\’t always fulfilling for those who want to wrestle.

  • Ash By Elegance Says She\’s Retired After Vacating TNA Knockouts Title

    Ash By Elegance\’s time in the ring has seemingly come to an end, the former TNA Knockouts Champion has revealed. During a virtual signing for RDP Promotions, Ash showed off one of the shirts she was selling and revealed the significance of the item.

    “$30 for this top. It is worn with me and Paige VanZant (in a photoshoot), but also, this is the shirt I retired in. It’s $30. My retirement t-shirt.”

    Later on, Ash shared that TNA has been supporting her and has allowed her the opportunity to do things backstage. Ash told fans to \”never say never\” to an in-ring return, but for now, there\’s no plans for her to get back in the squared circle.

    Ash, also known to WWE fans as Dana Brooke, vacated the TNA Knockouts Title at Victory Road, mere weeks after winning the gold. At the time, Ash didn\’t give a specific reason for her decision, instead ating that \”I am no longer able to compete.\”

    Ash won the title from NXT\’s Jacy Jayne at WWE Heatwave in a triple threat match which included Masha Slamovich. TNA\’s Tommy Dreamer has confirmed that Ash\’s situation is not a \’work\’ but instead a very unfortunate moment for all informed.

    To this day, it remains unclear as to what exactly derailed Ash By Elegance\’s in-ring career. For now, Elegance\’s time in the ring is in the past.

  • Fans Rally For Edge After John Cena\’s Win At Crown Jewel: Perth

    The WWE Universe made their voices heard loud and clear following John Cena\’s victory at WWE Crown Jewel: Perth. During the post-show event, the fans chanted \”We want Edge,\” making clear who they want Cena to face next. Not satisfied with just the chant, the crowd in Australia sang Metalingus, the theme song used by the Rated-R Superstar.

    These chants were mostly ignored by Paul \’Triple H\’ Levesque, who spoke about the great experience WWE has had in Australia for Crown Jewel. While Levesque eventually highlighted the fans singing, saying the crowd had been \”doing this all night long,\” he did not make reference to the message the fans were sending.

    Edge, aka AEW\’s Adam Copeland, is considered by many to be Cena\’s greatest rival. In 2006, Edge ended Cena\’s first reign as WWE Champion and John would repay the favor mere weeks later.

    Copeland recently shared that he\’d be leaving AEW programming, and was unclear when, if ever, he would return. While some quickly saw this as a sign of a WWE return for a Cena match, it has since been reported that this is not the case.

    John Cena has just four appearances left in his WWE farewell tour, a run that has seen him face rivals like Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar, and AJ Styles. And while a Cena-Edge match may never happen again, fans in Australia remain hopeful.

  • John Cena Beats AJ Styles, Pays Tribute To Past WWE Rivals

    John Cena and AJ Styles met one last time at WWE Crown Jewel: Perth in a match that defined \’Phenomenal.\’ When the smoke cleared, it was Cena who got the victory over his former rival, defeating Styles with an AA.

    Both Styles and Cena paid tribute to some of John\’s most notable rivals throughout the match. From Randy Orton to The Miz to Rusev, it appeared nobody was off limits for the duo.

    Styles also delivered a throwback of his own, as he wore attire that harkened back to his days with TNA Wrestling. Styles recently shared that his in-ring career will end in 2026. After the match, the pair shared a sign of respect, much to the appreciation of the WWE Universe.

    Styles now has just four appearances left for WWE as an active talent, and reportedly has a huge opportunity lined up next month. Stay tuned to SEScoops as the John Cena retirement tour nears its final chapter.

  • Stephanie Vaquer Wins WWE Crown Jewel Women\’s Title in Perth

    Stephanie Vaquer has continued her whirlwind of success in WWE by becoming the latest WWE Crown Jewel Women\’s Champion. In the second match of WWE Crown Jewel: Perth, Vaquer, the Women\’s World Champion defeated WWE Women\’s Champion Tiffany Stratton.

    This match marked Vaquer\’s fourth championship win in 2025 alone. In addition to her Women\’s World Championship reign, Vaquer is a former NXT Women\’s and NXT Women\’s North American Champion.

    You can check out some match highlights below.

    This match also marked Stratton\’s first loss of 2025, putting the WWE Women\’s Champion at an impressive, but imperfect 17-1. As for Vaquer, she has proven once again to be one of WWE\’s very top stars, just 15 months after making her debut.

  • Wes Lee Receives Offer From TNA Star After WWE NXT Release

    Wes Lee\’s time with WWE has come to an end as the former NXT North American Champion was among a wave of recent exits. While Lee\’s future now rests outside of WWE, he may not be without a contract for long.

    On X, Lee\’s former tag-team partner, Zachary Wentz, issued an offer to Wes. Wentz teased that there\’ll always be a spot for Lee as part of The Rascalz.

    While Wentz didn\’t mention Wes by name, fans immediately figured out who he was speaking about. Though some fans were excited at the idea of Lee reuniting with Wentz, Trey Miguel, and Myron Reed, others recalled Lee attacking his former allies and turning heel in August 2024.

    Lee is arguably the most surprising name to part WWE in this latest wave of exits. During his NXT run, he held the tag titles twice (both with Wentz) and was one of the longest-reigning NXT North American Champions. Lee also battled several times for the WWE NXT Championship, though he never held the gold.

    With his skills and charisma, Lee impressed fans for years as a WWE Superstar. It remains to be seen where his career goes next, but a return to The Rascalz could be on its way.

  • Konosuke Takeshita Was Drunk For Unconventional Marriage Proposal

    Konosuke Takeshita wasn\’t far from sober when he made the life-altering decision to propose to fellow wrestler Yuka Sakazaki. In a new interview from the pair, Takeshita shared how he had taken on some \’liquid courage\’ before proposing.

    \”I didn\’t pop the question, really. I was kinda drunk and go \’Do you love me?\’ So I say \’How much?\’ And right away, she says \’More than I love myself.\’ So then I said \’We should get married.\’\”

    The pair kept their relationship and engagement private for some time. In May 2025, they announced their marriage — the first time they had spoken publicly about their relationship. Echoing her earlier words, Yuka’s post announcing their marriage included the caption, “They mean more to me than anything, even myself.”

    Takeshita has been part of AEW since 2022 where he is a former International Champion, and won the G1 Climax earlier this year. Sakazaki is best known for her time with TJPW, where she is a three-time Princess of Princess Champion and four-time (and inaugural) Tag Team Champion.

    2025 has been a landmark year for the couple, both professionally and personally. With their Goldendoodle, Kenshiro, by their side, Konosuke and Yuka are ready to take on the world as a true wrestling power couple.

  • Allie Katch Returns At HOG Wrestling After Broken Leg Injury

    Allie Katch made her triumphant return to pro wrestling after a broken leg derailed her career in early 2025. As part of House of Glory\’s latest event, Indi Hartwell retained the HOG Women\’s Title against Zayda Steel. When Steel attacked Hartwell after the match, Katch made the save.

    On X, Katch reflected on her big return. Katch declared that \”the time is now\” for her to take bookings again and that \”the universe\’s timing is never wrong.\”

    Allie Katch suffered an injury at The People Vs. GCW in January, and it was confirmed that she had broken her leg in two places. A GoFundMe was launched to help her during her recovery, which raised over $53,000. Notable donors include Nic Nemeth, Matt Cardona, Liv Morgan, Brit Baker, Piper Niven, and Danhausen.

    With Katch back and taking bookings again, the popular independent wrestler is ready to put this injury behind her. Katch maintained a positive attitude during her hiatus, and now she\’s ready to dish out pain of her own in the squared circle once more.

  • Backstage Response To Big E Saying In-Ring Career Is Behind Him

    On a recent edition of Stephanie McMahon\’s What\’s Your Story? podcast, Big E shared that his in-ring career is \”kind of behind me,\” over three years after his most recent match. This comment has led to fans fearing that Big E will never make a return to in-ring competition.

    Multiple people who spoke to Fightful Select shared that the consensus backstage is that Big E is done. In recent years, sources have referred to the former WWE Champion as \”retired\” and as a \”former wrestler.\”

    Big E\’s most recent match came during the March 11, 2022, episode of WWE SmackDown. During the match, he suffered a broken neck after taking a move on the outside that resulted in fractures to his C1 and C6 vertebrae.

    Big E has been open about his in-ring career potentially being over, and is grateful to be living pain-free. Big E has no issue with Ridge Holland, the man who caused the injury, and has spoken publicly about wanting the very best for the Welsh Superstar.

    Big E has remained a part of WWE programming, and can often be found at post-PLE shows and in other non-physical roles. With all that said, it appears fans have seen the last of Big E in the ring.

  • Jon Moxley & Darby Allin Brawl At New York Comic Con

    Jon Moxley and Darby Allin took their AEW feud out of the ring by brawling in front of fans at New York Comic Con. During a panel highlighting the upcoming AEW x DC Comics crossover series, Allin interrupted and threw a glass of water at Moxley.

    Moxley responded by showing Allin through the backdrop that displayed the logos for AEW and DC Comics. The pair traded some fists before being separated by security. The fans at the panel, excited at the brawl, gave the pair a \”Holy S***\” chant as well as chants for AEW.

    The two have been feuding ever since Allin returned from his successful climb of Mt. Everest. After this brawl, the pair will meet in an I Quit match at AEW Wrestledream. With neither man ready to hold back, it remains to be seen who will be forced to say those dreaded two words.

    AEW WrestleDream 2025 will take place on October 18 at the Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, Missouri. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on AEW WrestleDream, including breaking news and live results.

    AEW\’s Mercedes Moné has added yet another championship to her collection, tying the record currently held by Último Dragon. On October 10, Moné captured the BODYSLAM Women’s Championship in Denmark, ending the reign of Aliss Ink.

  • AJ Styles Vows Crown Jewel: Perth Will Be His Final John Cena Match

    The adage of \’never say never\’ may often be true in pro-wrestling, but AJ Styles has vowed to never face John Cena after they battle at Crown Jewel: Perth. Speaking on the WWE Crown Jewel: Perth Preview, Styles said nothing, not even a high-profile pay-day at a WWE event in Saudi Arabia, could change his mind.

    \”I am happy to get the opportunity to face John one more time and I can tell you this. It will never happen again. I don\’t care how much money, they offer us… We are NOT going to Saudi Arabia to have another match. You know, this is it man.\”

    Styles and Cena first collided in 2016 and would have a series of acclaimed matches at Premium Live Events. At the 2017 Royal Rumble, Cena defeated Styles to capture his 16th WWE World Championship, tying a record with Ric Flair that John would break earlier this year.

    Cena will end his in-ring career this December and Styles is convinced that no amount of money will coax John to make a one-off return. As for AJ, he has been open about his career being in its twilight, though has yet to give a date as to when he will hang up his boots.

    Cena Vs. Styles in Perth will see two of WWE\’s very best facing off one final time. And for AJ Styles, this final match with Cena will indeed be the FINAL time they face.

  • Robert Stone Rejects Idea of WWE Having an Off-Season

    WWE is a company that operates programming 52 weeks a year, making them far different from movies or other high-profile TV shows. While many believe WWE would benefit from an \’off-season,\’ NXT\’s Robert Stone has rejected the idea.

    Speaking to The Wrestling History channel, Stone was asked about a potential off-season. For Stone, WWE\’s programming is too well-established in history to undergo such a dramatic change.

    \”It [operating every week] is the only thing I\’ve ever known, that every wrestling fan\’s ever known. It\’s always been like that, right? So I think to take that away [would be difficult.]\”

    If WWE ever did implement an off-season, one of the biggest questions would be when to take the company off the air. Many have suggested that WrestleMania could serve as a natural season finale, but Stone believes that would mean losing one of WWE’s most exciting traditions.

    \”That Raw [after WrestleMania] is one of the most exciting Raws of the year that people look forward to. So after the big shows when you\’re saying it could potentially end and there be a break, I think those next episodes of Raw and Smackdown are the ones that everybody wants to see the most.\”

    WWE has implemented a number of changes in recent years, including in-ring canvas advertisements and other promotional innovations. Whether TKO ever considers introducing an off-season remains to be seen—but for now, Robert Stone is firmly against the idea.

  • Kelani Jordan & Shiloh Hill Sign With Paradigm Talent Agency

    Two more WWE names have signed with the Paradigm Talent Agency, as the company continues to grow its portfolio of pro wrestlers. According to Sports Business Journal, Paradigm has signed NXT star and current TNA Knockouts World Champion Kelani Jordan, along with WWE LFG season two winner Shiloh Hill. The pair are the first developmental talents in WWE to sign with Paradigm.

    Paradigm will support the pair in contract negotiations, as well as with branding outside of the ring and media opportunities. Speaking to SBJ, Paradigm agent Nick LoPiccolo spoke highly of the connection to WWE.

    “Paradigm is bullish on WWE talent because the marketplace dictates the demand. If the marketplace takes a turn, we will be at the forefront of that cultural change.\”

    Paradigm launched its sports initiative in November 2024, after brokering the Jake Paul Vs. Mike Tyson fight on Netflix. Jordan and Hill join CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, Damian Priest, Sheamus, Jade Cargill, Liv Morgan, and Alexa Bliss, among other WWE names, to sign with Paradigm.

    Both Jordan and Hill are riding high in their current WWE roles. Jordan recently captured the TNA Knockouts Championship that had been vacated by Ash By Elegance. As for Hill, his victory on WWE LFG season 2 has earned the young wrestler an NXT contract.

    It remains to be seen what opportunities await Hill and Jordan now they are being represented by Paradigm. For now, it\’s clear that the duo are ready to make major moves in and out of the ring.

  • Raja Jackson Pleads Not Guilty To Charges From Syko Stu Incident

    Raja Jackson has pleaded not guilty to charges related to the incident with Syko Stu. Appearing in court on Thursday, October 9, Jackson made his plea after being charged with one count of felony battery that caused serious bodily injury and one count of misdemeanor battery.

    From TMZ:

    “Wearing a black shirt, black pants and black tie … Raja stared ahead as he strolled into the building flanked by men who appeared to be his lawyers. Prosecutors say he’s facing up to seven years behind bars if convicted on the felony count, and up to six more months if convicted on the misdemeanor.”

    Jackson did not offer any comment to TMZ when he was approached after his appearance. Jackson is the son of UFC alum Quinton \’Rampage\’ Jackson, who appeared for TNA Wrestling in 2013 as a member of the Main Event Mafia.

    At a KnokXPro event, Raja legitimately knocked Syko Stu out and delivered a series of shots to the head of an unconscious Stu. Jackson was arrested on felony charges in September and KnokXPro has since lost its status as a WWE ID affiliate.

    The wrestling world has donated to a fundraiser to help Stu, with Chris Jericho, Jack Perry, Rusev, and more pitching in to help. Content creator Mr. Beast has also donated, giving $10,000 to help Stu and his family cover cover medical expenses, recovery support, and loss of income.

    This incident shows why trust between wrestlers is essential as those in the ring need to know that the other is prioritizing their safety. Stay tuned to SEScoops for updates.

  • Omos Makes WWE In-Ring Return At NXT Live Event

    Omos has officially returned to in-ring action as part of a WWE NXT live event, in his first WWE match in over a year. During the event from Columbus, Ohio, Omos made quick work of Lexis King.

    This match was Omos\’ first WWE match since April 2024, when he competed in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal on SmackDown. During his WWE absence, Omos competed for NOAH in January of this year and was part of AAA TripleMania XXXIII where he won a battle royal.

    Omos wasn\’t the only main roster talent to make the trip to Columbus for WWE NXT. The show also saw Candice LeRae defeat Kendal Grey, while DIY (Tomasso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano) defeated Dark State. Bravo and Rayo, the new associates of El Grande Americano, also made the trip to defeat Chase U (Kale Dixon & Uriah Connors).

    With Omos\’ in-ring return, it remains to be seen what\’s next for the Nigerian Giant. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Omos both in and out of WWE.

  • Kylie Rae Confirms WWE Exit After Contract Isn\’t Renewed

    Kylie Rae\’s time with WWE has come to an end after being informed that her WWE ID contract will not be renewed. On X, Rae shared a statement confirming her exit.

    “Today I share that my time with WWEID is coming to an end, as I was informed my contract will not be renewed. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunities, memories, and people I met along the way. Thank you to everyone who supported me during this chapter—it truly means the world. As for the next chapter, I’m so ready to meet you! (Once I pop this baby out of course).”

    Rae was arguably the biggest name recruited to the WWE ID program, given her lengthy history on the independent circuit. In August, Rae became the first-ever WWE ID Women\’s Champion, winning a triple-threat match at a GCW event. Her reign came to an abrupt end when Rae got pregnant.

    Kylie Rae isn\’t the only WWE ID prospect to depart WWE. Zayda Steel recently shared that her WWE tenure has ended, albeit in different circumstances. While Rae was informed that her contract would not be renewed, Steel has shared that she turned down the chance to remain with WWE, adding, \”I have to do what\’s best for me.\”

    Given Kylie Rae\’s pregnancy, fans shouldn\’t expect her back in the ring anytime soon. Whenever Kylie does make a comeback, however, it won\’t be as part of the WWE ID program.

  • WWE Alum Bobby \’Mo\’ Horne In The ICU With Multiple Health Issues

    Former WWE performer Bobby Horne is struggling with several health issues that have left him residing in an Intensive Care Unit. On Facebook, fellow WWE alum Leilani Kai shared that Horne is currently battling a blood infection and pneumonia at this time.

    I’ve known Bobby for many years — all the way back to our WWF days in the mid-’90s. We’ve worked a lot of shows together since then, and he’s always been the same kind-hearted, funny, and dependable person wherever we were — locker rooms, conventions, or long drives on the road.

    He’s going through a really tough time right now, battling a blood infection and pneumonia, and remains in the ICU. His wife Denise has been by his side every step of the way and has been sharing updates as he continues to fight and show small signs of improvement.

    Please keep Bobby and Denise in your prayers tonight. He’s a good man and a true friend to so many of us in wrestling.

    Horne is best known for his time as \’Mo\’ of Men on a Mission, a rapping babyface group that arrived in the early 1990s. In 1994, Mo and Mabel captured the WWF Tag Team Championships during a tour of the UK, though lost the titles days later. In 1995, Mo became \’Sir Mo\’ after Mabel won that year\’s King of the Ring tournament.

    This current stint in the ICU is sadly not Horne\’s first medical issue. In 2018, Horne required a kidney transplant and was told he\’d need anti-rejection medication for the rest of his life. 2022 saw Horne struggle with a liver transplant and battle COVID, the latter of which led to him spending time in the ICU.

    We here at SEScoops would like to wish Horne the very best at this difficult time.

  • Zayda Steel Leaving WWE: I Have To Do What\’s Best For Me

    Zayda Steel\’s time with WWE has come to an end after the WWE ID prospect opted not to renew her contract. a post shared on social media, Zayda expressed gratitude for her time in WWE while confirming that she has finished with the promotion.

    “I’ve decided not to renew my WWE ID contract. I’m incredibly grateful for all the knowledge, experience, and opportunities I’ve gained along the way, but at the end of the day, I have to do what’s best for me. I’m only 21, and have already done so much, but I’m just getting started! Thank you.”

    Steel made her WWE debut in February as part of WWE Evolve and was quickly positioned as one of the brand\’s top women. In August, Steel was part of a triple-threat match to determine the first WWE ID Women\’s Champion, but ultimately lost to Kylie Rae.

    Outside WWE, Zayda Steel has made a name for herself in CZW, MLW, Beyond Wrestling, and Marigold, among other promotions. Her final match for WWE saw the 21-year-old Superstar on the losing end of an eight-person tag-team match in September 2025.

    Turning down a contract with WWE is no small decision, but Steel is prioritizing what she believes is right for her. Whatever comes next for Zayda Steel in and out of the ring, WWE won\’t be a factor.

  • Kris Statlander Eyes Mercedes Moné Rematch After Historic Title Win

    Kris Statlander recently captured the AEW Women\’s World Championship, in a history making performance by the 30-year-old star. Kris is the first wrestler to have held the AEW TBS and Women\’s World Titles, but now she\’s ready to make history again.

    Speaking to Close Up with Renee Paquette, Kris looked at her future prospects. After winning AEW\’s top prize for women, Statlander is ready to win even more gold.

    \”What if I want to be the first ever two-time TBS Champion? Like, what if I want to be the first ever [to] hold both of them at the same time?\”

    Statlander\’s goal would put her in the ring with Mercedes Moné, who has held the AEW TBS Championship for over 500 days. The pair battled for the TBS Title at AEW Worlds End 2024, in a match won by the CEO.

    Given Mercedes\’ habit of collecting championships, Statlander knows that she is now a target of Moné. Undeterred, Kris is ready to flip the script and start a collection of her own.

    “You hear that, Mercedes? She thinks she’s coming for me. You better watch your back, girl.”

    Mercedes Moné will soon make history of her own as she is days away from becoming the longest-reigning AEW TBS Champion. But with Statlander more confident than ever after her recent title win, the result could be much different the next time they share the ring.

  • Paul Heyman Fires Back After Braun Strowman Revisits Roman Reigns Feud

    Paul Heyman has hit back at Braun Strowman after the former WWE Superstar brought up his past with Roman Reigns. During the October 6, episode of WWE Raw, Heyman claimed that Roman Reigns has never been attacked so badly that he needed to be stretchered out, until he collided with Bronson Reed.

    This earned a response from Strowman, who refuted Heyman\’s claim. Comparing Heyman to DC Comics character Oswald Cobblepot, aka The Penguin, Braun pointed out that an attack from him once resulted in Reigns needing to be stretchered.

    Now, Heyman has responded. Defending his failing to recall Strowman\’s attack on Reigns, the WWE Hall of Famer teased that he, like many others, failed to remember Braun was even alive.

    \”Dear Mr. Strowman,

    Your post was brought to my attention.

    I have nothing negative to say about you, nor to you sir.

    In fact, I am actually relieved and indeed celebratory to lean you\’re still alive, something most of us didn\’t realize and even fewer cared about.

    With Love and Respect, Paul Heyman.\”

    Strowman was released from WWE earlier this year, his second time being cut from the promotion within a four-year window. Strowman\’s second run with WWE saw him return in September 2022 though he never held gold during his comeback.

    Strowman and Reigns battled in 2017 and 2018, and briefly in 2020 over the Universal Championship. Now, Strowman\’s future rests outside WWE and it remains to be seen what\’s next for the Monster Among Men.

  • Adam Cole Lends Voice To Steam Game Amid AEW Recovery

    Adam Cole\’s love of gaming is no secret, and now the AEW star has joined a new video game outside of the wrestling world. Cole has provided his voice for a new game \’Curiosity\’ from DarkBear Studios. The game is now available on Steam and Steam Deck and is currently on offer for a limited time.

    From DarkBear Studios:

    \”In Curiosity, players embody a small but determined cat on a perilous climb home. Every leap requires precision, patience, and persistence: one mistake can send you tumbling down. With nine lives to spare (and consequences for losing them all), players must master every jump, uncover mysterious lore, and survive a journey that’s as emotional as it is demanding.

    \”Drawing inspiration from titles like Only Up and Getting Over It, Curiosity offers a modern evolution of the genre: combining the viral tension of vertical climbing games with a rich story; a hand-crafted world, and traditional platforming elements like secrets, collectibles, checkpoints, and even potential skips for the most daring players.\”

    Cole\’s voice acting role comes amid his latest injury in AEW. In July, Cole was forced to vacate the TNT Championship due to another concussion. At All In: Texas, Cole admitted that he is uncertain about his pro-wrestling future and the wrestling world shared messages of support for the AEW star.

    It remains to be seen whether Cole returns to the ring, but Curiosity shows that there are opportunities for him outside of the squared circle. We at SEScoops are continuing to wish Cole the very best on his recovery.

  • Cody Rhodes Reveals WWE Schedule For October 2025

    Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes has shared where fans can expect to see him in person for the month of October 2025. On X, Rhodes shared his schedule, something that the American Nightmare has done on social media for months.

    • October 10, 2025 – WWE SmackDown, Perth, Australia
    • October 11, 2025 – WWE Crown Jewel, Perth, Australia
    • October 17, 2025 – WWE SmackDown, San Jose, California, USA
    • October 24, 2025 – WWE SmackDown, Tempe, Arizona, USA
    • October 31, 2025 – WWE SmackDown, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA

    This schedule is far more relaxed than what Cody has shared in the past, though that isn\’t entirely his decision. TKO\’s choice to cut back on untelevised live events has led to many Superstars wrestling less than they did even just a year or two ago.

    Rhodes\’ next high-profile match will come at WWE Crown Jewel, where he will take on his long-time rival and World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins. The pair will battle over the Men\’s Crown Jewel Championship, a ceremonial title that Rhodes won in 2024.

    Rhodes has been a leader in WWE since his return three years ago, and is in his second reign as WWE Champion. It remains to be seen what\’s next for the American Nightmare, but expect Rhodes to give his all in these upcoming appearances.
