  • Jake Paul & Logan Paul Project Is Reality Show, Not Fight

    Jake Paul and Logan Paul will not be stepping into the ring to face one another (yet!) despite a recent tease of a showodown. This week, Logan Paul took to X (formerly Twitter) to share news of a project between the two brothers. The image of the two brothers staring intently left many believing a boxing match was coming.

    Despite speculation of a fight, this post on X was the first tease of a reality show, sources told ESPN\’s Mike Coppinger. The show will premiere on MAX on March 27, though the premise of the reality show remains unclear.

    While the Paul brothers won\’t be facing each other this Match, both have seen success in the boxing world. Jake has made a name for himself against high-profile opponents including Tommy Fury, Nate Diaz, and Anderson Silva while Logan has balanced his time between boxing and WWE.

    Outside of boxing, Logan Paul will be part of this weekend\’s Men\’s Royal Rumble match and hopes to punch his ticket to WrestleMania 41. On Raw, Paul confronted Seth Rollins and GUNTHER, teasing a future in the World Heavyweight Championship picture. With WrestleMania 41 set for April 19-20, mere weeks after his showdown with his brother, WWE\’s resident Maverick will likely be a very busy individual later this year.

  • Drew McIntyre Calls CM Punk a “Cancer\” Ahead Of Royal Rumble Collision

    Drew McIntyre and CM Punk had one of WWE\’s most brutal feuds of 2024, and the Scottish Warrior, isn\’t ready to let things rest. In a new interview with The Scottish Sun Sport, McIntyre shared his view that the side of fans Punk sees is far from the genuine article.

    \”Guy’s a cancer, he plays the part of a hero for the people so well, but the truth is, it’s just all about himself. He doesn’t care.\”

    The idea of Punk being a \’cancer\’ is not isolated to McIntyre. After his infamous All Out 2022 rant, Punk was reportedly called a cancer by Chris Jericho. Seth Rollins used similar verbiage about Punk in early 2023, planting the seeds for their eventual feud in WWE.

    CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre Timeline: Everything you need to know

    As the Royal Rumble approaches, speculation continues to mount about the two, who have both declared for the 30-Man match. In last year\’s match, Punk suffered an injury that derailed his WrestleMania dream, a setback the Scottish Superstar was glad to take credit for. In the interview, McIntyre relished facing Punk one more time.

    \”He’s gonna get his. When he gets in my path, he’s going to get his, but I have certain goals in mind now. Inevitably, he’s going to get taken out.\”

    The drama between Drew McIntyre and CM Punk is far from over and fans can await the pair to face off this weekend at the 2025 Royal Rumble. Stay tuned for more updates and insights on the pair of former World Champions who hope to secure their place on the Road to WrestleMania 41.

  • Jordynne Grace Shares Why Her Dramatic Transformation Was A Must

    In a recent appearance on the Insight podcast, Jordynne Grace discussed the motivation behind her stunning physical transformation. When asked what inspired her to change her body, the former Knockouts Champion explained her \”messed-up mentality.\”

    \”I felt like I had to because I have to stand out somehow… I was just this chubby white girl, and you didn\’t see anything when I walked in a room.\”

    Over a two-year period, Grace lost a considerable amount of weight and toned her body into the \’Juggernaut\’ fans see today. On the podcast, Grace explained that she wanted to demonstrate her dedication to wrestling.

    \”If someone has big arms and they walk into a room, it doesn\’t matter if they\’re four foot tall, you\’re gonna be like, okay, they\’re dedicated.\”

    Grace has taken her commitment to fitness to the next level by entering the world of professional bodybuilding. In April 2023, the Juggernaut made her bodybuilding competiton debut in the Tri City Classic. Like her work in the ring, Grace dominated the competiton to win first place in the true novice, women\’s physique, and overall women\’s physique categories.

    Grace recently finished her time with TNA Wrestling and has signed a multi-year deal with WWE. With several notable performances under her belt, fans can expect a huge role for Grace as a fully-fledged Superstar, perhaps as soon as this weekend\’s 2025 Royal Rumble event.

  • Jordynne Grace: From WWE Diva Hopeful To Juggernaut

    Jordynne Grace has arrived in WWE, but the Juggernaut\’s journey to the company has been a dream in the making since childhood. Speaking on the Insight podcast before her WWE signing became public, Grace was asked if joining the promotion\’s roster had always been her ultimate goal.

    \”I just wanted to wrestle when I was a kid, but I also wanted to be a Diva. That\’s the era I was watching. So I wanted to be like one of the models.\”

    Grace would stumble upon TNA Wrestling a few years before beginning her training, and the company would showcase women\’s wrestling outside of WWE\’s divas division. It was seeing women outside of WWE\’s mold that made Grace realize a future in the ring was possible.

    \”The variation in WWE and TNA at the time was huge, obviously. I saw women like Awesome Kong and I was like dang, maybe I could be like that.\”

    Grace tried out for WWE in 2018 but it wouldn\’t be until the 2024 Royal Rumble that she made her WWE debut. Reflecting on her arrival, Grace recalled being worried nobody in the crowd would know of her.

    \”I expected to come out there and no one was gonna know who I was. It was my first time being in WWE at all, so I didn\’t expect people to know who I was.\”

    Grace didn\’t just receive recognition last year, but her Rumble appearance opened the door for the multi-year WWE-TNA partnership that has proven to be a hit. While Grace\’s days as a TNA Knockout are over, fans can expect many more epic moments from the Juggernaut, perhaps as soon as this weekend.

  • Update On JD McDonagh After Scary WWE RAW Spot

    During the January 27, edition of WWE Raw, JD McDonagh suffered a scary bump during a World Tag Title match when the back of his head hit the announce table. Despite this, McDonagh was able to finish the match that saw the War Raiders retain against the Irish Ace and Dominik Mysterio.

  • Major League Soccer Moves Production To WWE Stuidos

    Major League Soccer (MLS) is moving its entire production operation to WWE’s state-of-the-art studios in Stamford, Connecticut. MLS Season Pass, the league’s Apple TV-based streaming service, will now be produced at The Studios at WWE. The 30,000 square-foot facility opened in April 2024.

    Speaking to Sports Business Journal, Seth Bacon, MLS EVP of Media, addressed the move.

    “The goal of moving to this new facility is to get everyone into one place, everyone working together, focused on how we produce the same amount of content at higher quality.\”

    Beyond MLS Season Pass, The Studios at WWE will also oversee graphics production for over 600 live matches per year, in addition to short-form content for MLS social media channels and other league content partners. This move comes amid MLS\’ ten-year broadcasting deal with Apple Inc that was announced in 2022 and began with the 2023 season.

    For decades, WWE has remained on the forefront of improving its production, including moving to HD in 2008. In 2024, Lee Fitting replaced Kevin Dunn as WWE\’s Head of Production, and his work has been praised by fans and insiders alike.

    MLS teaming up with WWE’s production powerhouse is an unexpected crossover but will see the soccer league benefit from WWE\’s high quality level of production. It remains to be seen if WWE and MLS experience any crossover on-screen with this move to The Studios but fans know not to count anything out in this current era for the promotion.

  • Liv Morgan: From Hooters Waitress to Elite WWE Talent

    Liv Morgan recently opened up about her journey from Hooters waitress to the top of WWE, a path that has shown her resilienc and determination. The former Women\’s World Champion shared her inspiring story on the Pod Meets World podcast, where she spoke with hosts Will Friedle, Danielle Fishel, and Rider Strong about the moments that defined her career.

    An Unlikely Start

    Morgan\’s WWE journey began in Hooters, where she\’d meet renowned strength coach Joe DeFranco. After sharing her love of wrestling, Liv was invited to DeFranco\’s gym where she \”just kept up\” with NFL athletes. Impressed by her grit, DeFranco, who trained Triple H, contacted WWE on her behalf, opening the door to her future.

    Overcoming the WWE Tryout

    Liv\’s 2014 tryout was a gruelling three-day process that pushed her to the limit. On the podcast, Morgan recalled trying to stay focused when everyone around her seemed to be falling apart.

    \”People were vomiting, getting concussed, and I doubled up to keep things even in the ring.\”

    Despite being inexperienced, Morgan\’s perserverance won out and she impressed WWE\’s coaches. Not long after the tryout, she\’d be offered a contract. Her on-screen debut would come not as a wrestler, but as a planted fan who jumped the barricade to get close to Tyler Breeze during his NXT TakeOver: Rival entrance in February 2015.

    Living a Family Dream

    Morgan had been a wrestling fan for years before reaching WWE, making her arrival a dream come true. On the podcast, Morgan recalled loving wrestling with her four older brothers, who remain her biggest supporters to this day.

     “It wasn’t just my dream—it was our family dream. The fact that one of us made it feels surreal to them.\”

    A Story of Resilience

    Since her in-ring debut as \’Local Competitor\’ against Eva Marie on the November 4, 2015, episode of NXT, Morgan has risen to become one of WWE\’s leading women. A spell of injuries in 2023 could not keep Morgan down, and 2024 saw her win both the Women\’s World Championship and the first ever Women\’s Crown Jewel Championship.

    Now, attention turns to Morgan\’s performance in this weekend’s 30-Woman Royal Rumble match, a match she was the runner-up in last year. Keep following SEScoops for all the latest WWE updates as the Road to WrestleMania heats up.

  • Fans Blast Tony Khan with NSFW Chant at Ricky Starks Match

    Ricky Starks made a rare in-ring appearance at a House of Glory live event, and the crowd made their feelings known with a loud and clear message. During Starks\’ match, fans erupted into a \”F*** TK\” chant—a direct shot at AEW President Tony Khan. Despite being one of AEW\’s most promising stars, Starks has not been seen in AEW programming since March of last year.

    The chant reflects growing discontent among AEW fans, who have been eager to see Starks back on the company\’s programming. Once positioned as a future main eventer in the company, Starks\’ career came to a halt in March 2024, after he and Big Bill lost the AEW World Tag Team Championships to Darby Allin and Sting.

    Starks was pulled from a planned appearance at Game Changer Wrestling (GCW) last year, despite not being used by AEW. It was later reported that Tony Khan ordered Starks\’ removal from the show after a comment made by EFFY about Khan\’s father. Not only was Starks pulled from the event, but it was later stated that he would not be allowed to participate at future GCW shows.

    Ricky Starks Reportedly Denied Release from AEW

    Starks himself has addressed his absence in interviews and though he has theories, has not been given a reason as to why he\’s not being used. It remains to be seen if Starks ever competes for AEW again, but fans are certainly frustrated with Khan\’s decision to not use the former World Tag Team Champion.

    In a post-match interview, it was brought up that Ripley doesn\’t have a match at WWE Royal Rumble 2025, but in theory could enter the women\’s match. Ripley, however, had other ideas, saying \”I think it would be a bad decision. Maybe I\’ll be in the men\’s one.\”

    If Ripley were to compete in the Men\’s Royal Rumble match, she\’d become the 5th woman to do so. Chyna made history by competing in both the 1999 and 2000 Rumble matches, and Beth Phoenix would do the same in 2010. Kharma was a part of the match in 2012 while Nia Jax would take R-Truth\’s spot in the Men\’s match in 2019.

    Ripley has never shied away from (literally) man-handling her male counterparts in WWE. Check out this video to see just how well Ripley would fare in the Men\’s Royal Rumble match.

    The Royal Rumble premium live event on February 1, at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis promises to be an exciting event with Rumbles and title matches. It remains to be seen if Ripley, who won the Women\’s Royal Rumble in 2023, steps in the ring against the men of WWE next weekend.

  • All WWE Legends Who Appeared At Saturday Night\’s Main Event

    WWE Saturday Night\’s Main Event once again had a nostalgic flair, with several legends of the ring appearing at the event. During the show, Ted DiBiase, Dory Funk Jr. and \’Hacksaw\’ Jim Duggan were spotlighted in the crowd.

    Jesse \’The Body\’ Ventura was part of the show after making his return to WWE with last month\’s Saturday Night\’s Main Event special. The WWE Hall of Famer and former Minnesota governor was excited to see Bron Breakker and Sheamus go to war for the Intercontinental Championship.

    Alundra Blayze was also in the crowd, with the WWF Women\’s Championship. Blayze infamously dropped the title in the trash after she moved to WCW in 1995.

    The Brainbusters Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard were shown following Jacob Fatu’s assault of Braun Strowman. The pair had previously been a part of AEW.

    Mark Henry, another AEW alum, was also in the crowd at Saturday Night\’s Main Event. Henry\’s son Jacob recently signed with WWE, leaving fans excited to see what\’s to come for the young powerhouse.

    The appearance of these legends, alongside the in-ring action of the modern-day roster, provided an exciting night for the WWE Universe. With four Saturday Night\’s Main Events planned per years, fans can expect many more nostalgic moments featuring legends of the past on WWE programming in the future.

  • Don Callis Teases More \’Family\’ Members On AEW Collision

    Could more wrestlers be set to join the Don Callis family in AEW? Don\’t count it out according to the faction\’s leader. Callis held a family meeting in a vignette at AEW Collision Homecoming to discuss what happened on Dynamite. The meeting, consisting of Callis, Kyle Fletcher, Konosuke Takeshita, Lance Archer, and Brian Cage, focused on Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay teaming up against them. When an unconcerned Brian Cage argued that there\’s five of them to the two of Omega and Ospreay, Callis teased more members, asking \”Who said there is only five of us?\”

    Callis gave no word on who could be set to join his family in their war against Ospreay and Omega. Trent Beretta was aligned with the Callis family before undergoing neck surgery last year. There is no word yet on when he will return to programming.

    Whatever Callis has in store, Omega & Ospreay will face Fletcher & Takeshita at AEW Grand Slam: Australia. The first of its kind show will be a homecoming for Fletcher, leaving fans curious to see what kind of response he receives in the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on the Don Callis family, as the veteran manager could soon have more wrestlers at his disposal soon enough.

  • Ronda Rousey Opens Up About Postpartum Journey & Comeback

    Ronda Rousey and her husband, Travis Browne, welcomed their first daughter, La’akea Makalapuaokalanip?, in September 2021. Taking to Instagram, Rousey opened up about her battle with body confidence ever since she became a mom. The images shared by the former WWE Superstar have never been shared before, as Rousey only now feels confident to share her body before and after giving birth.

    \”I was afraid of people comparing my post-baby bod to my fight-camp form in a cruel way. Now it’s obvious the one unfairly comparing was me – holy s*** what an idiot I was, I’d be so proud to get back to that point now.\”

    Rousey and Browne recently welcomed their second daughter, P?’?, into the world, and the UFC legend intends to be \”more brave\” by sharing her recovery online. The former Superstar\’s hope is that her sharing will show others worrying about their own bodies post-birth that they\’re not alone.

    Rousey hasn\’t competed for WWE since SummerSlam 2023, but the fighter/Superstar is ready to get back to training. Rousey closed her post by teasing a \”mutha f***** montage,\” leaving fans excited what\’s to come.

    Rousey has been vocal about her issues with WWE\’s management during her tenure, but has competed a handful of times in other promotions, including ROH. It remains to be seen whether Rousey\’s training \’montage\’ results in an in-ring return for the Baddest Woman on the Planet.
