Carmelo Hayes Is Choosing Violence After Latest Miz Ambush

Carmelo Hayes is through playing nice after his latest run-in with former tag team partner The Miz. During the October 31 edition of WWE SmackDown, Hayes was attacked by The Miz following the former NXT Champion’s win over Kit Wilson.

Taking to X, Hayes made it clear that he’s ready to get violent with his responses to The Miz. Declaring that “I’m choosing violence,” Hayes said that the ‘Melo Don’t Miz’ tag team can ‘Rest In P***.”

This isn’t the first time Hayes has teased going after Miz. Following the pair’s brawl on the October 23 episode of WWE SmackDown, Melo made clear that The Miz is at the top of his ‘hitlist.’

Hayes and Miz began teaming in February of this year and would best LA Knight and Miz’s former ally R-Truth in their first match as a team. Their alliance lasted until the October 3, episode of 2025, when Miz turned on Hayes.

Hayes was called up to WWE’s main roster in 2024 after a successful run in WWE NXT. It remains to be seen what exactly he has in store for his former tag team partner.

Chelsea Green Confirms Reports on WWE Status

Chelsea Green has provided a big update on her WWE status.

The former Women’s US Champion recently had an interview with Gabby AF. She talked about things such as working with fellow Canadian Ethan Page, her wrestling journey, the growth of Maxxine Dupri, and more.

During the interview, Chelsea Green also talked about her current direction in the company. The WWE Diva explained that she is happy with her current position and confirmed that she recently signed a new deal with the promotion:

“I have not stopped moving and bopping from brand to brand in three years. I just re-signed. I’m so happy here, and I’m okay to take a moment and fill my days and my weeks with media and traveling to represent WWE as more of the face.”

Chelsea Green continued by mentioning how she is constantly booked for shows including not only SmackDown but NXT, and AAA as well. Even if her character does not have a clear direction at the moment, she is happy to know that the officials trust her to fill these spots.

The former Champion noted that she does have bigger goals. She would love to elevate herself to the level of Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley, and challenge for the top title, but she is also happy to be one of the busiest women on the roster.

While Green did not go into details of her new deal with the promotion, some recent reports revealed that she had been offered a long-term contract which Chelsea signed. You can check out more about it here.

Dave Meltzer Claims WWE Tried To Hire Him & Bryan Alvarez

Dave Meltzer is arguably the most recognizable name in pro wrestling journalism with a career spanning several decades. As part of his job, Meltzer has written plenty about WWE, and at one time, the promotion allegedly wanted him under contract.

During the November 1, episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Meltzer recalled receiving a phone call from WWE executive Ed Cohen. Despite the opportunity, Meltzer had no interest in writing for WWE, rather than about them.

“I shot it down immediately. I wanted to be a sportswriter. People go, ‘Oh, you wanted to be a booker? You wanted to be a pro wrestler?’ Never wanted to be any of those things… I wanted to be a writer, so I did that.”

It wasn’t just Meltzer that WWE reportedly had its eye on. Meltzer added that they also approached him about recruiting Bryan Alvarez. While WWE believed that Alvarez’s creativity would translate well into a backstage role, Meltzer wasn’t convinced.

“They thought he was really funny and creative… I pitched it to Bryan and he couldn’t… basically didn’t think he could last a week there.”

Instead, Alvarez and Meltzer have remained as reporters watching WWE and other promotions from the outside. While WWE believe both would have been versatile under contract, they’re rejection shows that not every one in pro wrestling dreams of making it to the biggest promotion.

Hologram Provides Big Update On Injury

AEW star Hologram has successfully undergone surgery.

The high-flying star had been teaming with Komander and later with members of the Conglomeration in recent months, while battling a doppelganger named El Clon.

The September 27 episode of Collision opened with another Clon warning. This time, however, it turned into a backstage segment where Kyle Fletcher was seen attacking the masked star.

Later in the broadcast, Tony Schiavone announced that Hologram had suffered a serious injury from this attack and that he would be away from the ring for some time.

This was done to write the AEW star off TV due to a legitimate knee injury, which was expected to keep him out of action for the foreseeable future.

Hologram himself then confirmed on X that the surgery was successful. He posted a video of his knee along with a message about rising up again after rehab:

hologram tweet

The Mexican star was originally scheduled to challenge Fletcher for the TNT Championship at the October 2 episode of Dynamite but he was replaced by Orange Cassidy.

It’s unknown how long the injury will keep him out of action but President Tony Khan had confirmed that he is expected to be on the shelf for the remainder of 2025.

Kit Wilson Clarifies Pretty Deadly Status After Speculated Split

During the October 31, episode of WWE SmackDown, Kit Wilson faced Carmelo Hayes in a rare singles match for the Pretty Deadly star. Not only did Wilson go it alone, but he also used new theme music, leading many to believe that he and Elton Prince were no longer a tag team.

On X, Wilson highlighted his new theme song, posting “new music, who dis?” When a fan responded by asking if Prince and Wilson are no longer a tag team, Kit made clear that “I’ll never break up with that man.”

Wilson’s update will come as good news to fans of Pretty Deadly. He and Prince haven’t teamed since May 2025 after Prince suffered an injury during their match on WWE SmackDown. While this new music led to some fans jumping to conclusions, Pretty Deadly remains stronger than ever.

In WWE, Pretty Deadly are former WWE NXT and WWE NXT UK Tag Team Champions and have entertained fans with their flashy, flamboyant, personas. While it remains to be seen when the ‘boys’ will team again, fans can expect it, despite Wilson’s solo match.

How Masha Slamovich Accusations Derailed Potential WWE Future

In September 2025, Masha Slamovich was accused of domestic violence, an allegation that resulted in her being pulled from plans in TNA Wrestling. Slamovich had been set to challenge for the TNA Knockouts Title at Victory Road, and it’s not just in TNA where her career was put on pause.

There was “some interest” in Slamovich from WWE, Fightful Select reports, though it is unclear how much interest there was. The report adds that TNA would have likely seen if Slamovich wanted to go to WWE and if she didn’t, would have made her a new offer to re-sign with TNA Wrestling.

Slamovich has some experience with WWE as she had been part of the NXT-TNA partnership. Slamovich was victorious in a six-woman tag-team match on the July 15, 2025, episode of WWE NXT. The following month, she challenged for the TNA Knockouts Title at WWE NXT Heatwave but was unsuccessful.

Slamovich hasn’t wrestled since September 2025 after the allegations made against her. Fightful’s report added that it’s possible she could return to TNA Wrestling as Masha’s ex who made the accusation, has said he hopes her career continues.

Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Slamovich’s career and whether she is able to call herself a WWE Superstar one day.

WWE Main Roster Star Eyes Future With TNA Gold

The WWE NXT Vs. TNA battle has seen multiple titles ‘cross the line’ and be held by talent from the other promotion. Currently, the TNA Knockouts Title is held by WWE NXT’s Kelani Jordan, but one main roster star is ready to take the gold for herself.

During an interview with Gabby AF, Chelsea Green spoke highly of Kelani Jordan. While Green is a former Impact Wrestling Knockouts Champion, the ‘Hot Mess’ is ready to hold the gold again, now it falls under the TNA brand.

“I love Kelani, and I would love to take the title off her and have a full-circle moment. I practically never held the TNA title. I held the Impact Knockouts title. Yeah, it’s insane.”

Green, competing as Laurel Van Ness, won the Impact Wrestling Knockouts Title in her native Canada during a December 2017 edition of iMPACT. Her reign would last for 65 days before being ended at iMPACT! Crossroads in January 2018 by Allie.

As for Jordan, she is in her first reign as TNA Knockouts Champion after winning the vacated gold at September’s Victory Road. Her reign, and siding with TNA Wrestling at Showdown, has seen her be isolated by the WWE NXT roster, who feel betrayed by Jordan.

It’s not just TNA Wrestling where Green is hoping to win gold. On November 2, she and Ethan Page will challenge for the AAA Mixed Tag Team Titles, currently held by Mr. Iguana and La Hiedra. Green has been working with Page in WWE NXT, a role that has put her in proximity with Jordan.

Green hasn’t held singles gold since her Women’s U.S. Title reign was ended earlier this year. Now, the Canadian is ready to ‘cross the line’ and make an impact in TNA Wrestling.

Matt Hardy: Jeff & I Aren’t Ready For WWE Hall of Fame

The Hardy Boyz (Matt and Jeff Hardy) are considered one of the greatest and most popular tag teams to ever compete in the ring. Now, Matt Hardy has once again spoken about the possibility of a WWE Hall of Fame induction.

During a recent episode of The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, the veteran wrestler was confident that he and Jeff will be WWE Hall of Famers one day. In Matt’s opinion, fans know it too, though he’s not quite ready to wind his career down for an induction just yet.

“Everybody knows the Hall of Fame is happening at some point, but I just don’t think we’re there yet. You know, nobody is ready. Nobody’s saying, ‘Okay, well, we’re ready to wind it down and retire. Let’s do the Hall of Fame.’”

The Hardys remain active in both WWE and TNA as well as competing in rare matches on the independent scene. With the team’s current momentum, including holding three sets of tag team titles, Matt believes it wouldn’t be wise to slow down yet.

Some WWE Hall of Famers continue to wrestle post-induction, including Rey Mysterio who was inducted in 2023. While Matt is pleased to see his WrestleMania 19 adversary still in the ring, he and Jeff aren’t ready for an induction yet.

“I mean, Rey Mysterio’s a great example of that… but I just don’t think we’re there yet.”

The topic of a Hall of Fame induction has come up in the past, with WWE offering Jeff a spot in 2022 to stop him from going to AEW. In July 2024, Jeff shared that, despite his success as a singles star, he’s not interested in a solo induction, and instead just wants to be inducted alongside his brother.

The Hardy Boyz are first-ballot Hall of Famers, but when their induction comes remains to be seen. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Matt and Jeff Hardy.

Tag Team Quietly Disbands on SmackDown

Pretty Deadly have seemingly broken up.

WWE presented a special Halloween-themed episode of SmackDown from Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah this week. The show featured names such as Cody Rhodes, Drew McIntyre and Alexa Bliss.

One of the matches on the card saw one half of the Pretty Deadly tag team Kit Wilson, squaring off against Carmelo Hayes in singles competition. Wilson came out with a new theme song for this bout.

The Miz showed up at the ringside towards the ending, and he shoved Melo into the ring post when the referee was not looking. Wilson then went to the top and delivered a corkscrew diving elbow to his opponent, but still failed to get the pin.

After this sequence, Carmelo finally picked up a pinfall victory by delivering a Codebreaker to Wilson. Though he couldn’t celebrate for long, as The Miz attacked him right after the bell. He hit the Skull-Crushing Finale on the former NXT star to end the segment.

Kit Wilson has not teamed with his partner Elton Prince since the May 2 episode of SmackDown this year, where they lost a match to Fraxiom. Prince seemed to have suffered an injury in this match and he hasn’t been seen on TV since.

Wilson, on the other hand, had made a couple of appearances on the Blue Branded show since then. Getting a new theme song for tonight’s match, however, appears to be the strongest indication that the duo have broken up and that we’ll see Elton going his own way when he does return to TV.

Watch: Cody Rhodes Holds Special Birthday Celebration After SmackDown Goes Off Air

A lot happened after this week’s SmackDown.

The go-home show for tomorrow’s Saturday Night’s Main Event came live from the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. A number of stars were seen in themed costumes for this Halloween special episode of the show.

The main event was a contract signing segment between Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes before their Undisputed WWE Championship match this weekend.

Cody ended up offering a unique stipulation for this match after Drew refused to sign the contract. The broadcast ended with McIntyre putting his opponent through a table and standing tall.

What Happened After SmackDown

The Scottish Psychopath left the ring after the show went off the air, but the WWE Champion stayed. Rhodes cut a promo and brought in veteran WWE cameraman Stu to the ring for a special birthday celebration.

The former AEW star got the crowd to sign happy birthday to the longtime WWE employee. Rhodes then put the WWE title belt on Stu and even lifted him up on his shoulders to complete the celebration.

This wasn’t the end of the night for the crowd in attendance, as they also got to witness a Trick or Treat Street Fight between LA Knight and Solo Sikoa as a dark match after SmackDown.

The ring was surrounded by various Halloween decorations for this match. Knight won the bout in the end after delivering a BFT on a pumpkin to Sikoa.

Unique Stipulation Added To Cody Rhodes vs Drew McIntyre Match At SNME

An interesting stipulation has been added to the Undisputed WWE Championship match between Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

This week’s episode of SmackDown featured a contract signing segment between the two stars. McIntyre, however, refused to sign the deal on account of the champion’s advantage. This came after Cody got himself disqualified in their championship match a couple weeks ago.

In response, the Undisputed Champion offered a unique stipulation to his opponent for their match. Cody Rhodes announced that he would lose the title if he got counted out or disqualified on Saturday night.

The two stars then finally completed the contract signing and took more verbal shots at each other afterwards. The segment ended with Drew putting his opponent through the table and standing tall with the belt.

WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event Match Card

The latest edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event will be held on November 1 from Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. Only 4 matches have been announced for the show which you can check out below:

  • World Heavyweight Championship Match For Vacant Title: CM Punk vs. Jey Uso

Booker T Wants Mercedes Moné in Reality of Wrestling: “We’ll even put the title on you”

Booker T Wants Mercedes Moné in Reality of Wrestling: “We’ll even put the title on you”

Booker T is so keen to have Mercedes Moné in Reality of Wrestling, he would even be willing to give her a shot at adding another belt to her already unprecedented collection of pro wrestling hardware. On his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T was interacting with his co-host Brad Gilmore with the latter asking a fan question regarding if the former multi-time WCW champion would ever be interested in having Mercedes Moné compete for his Reality of Wrestling Promotion.

The AEW TBS champion, who will soon be seeking the AEW strap, has been steadily collecting belts from a variety of independent promotions as of late and it seems to have a demonstrably positive effect on the business that those companies are doing. When asked if he would let Moné compete for the Reality of Wrestling crown, Booker T said,

“Yeah, without even a shadow of a doubt, without even thinking about it. She want to come to Reality of Wrestling, drop me a line. Shoot, we’ll get you in.”

“You know what I mean? We’ll even put the title on you… Look here [laughs]. Moné, want the Reality of Wrestling titles? Come on down here and get them.”

“Okay? You know, no problem. Look, I’ll sign it right now. I’ll sign it right now. You know what I mean?”

Booker T is training the child of a WWE legend at his ROW school

Booker T has many branches to his Reality of Wrestling brand and the daughter of former WWE champion Eddie Guerrero is getting in work at his pro wrestling training school. Sherilyn Guerrero is getting in work at the ROW training facility and the daughter of Eddie Guerrero cutting her teeth there was spotlighted by Reality of Wrestling, and Guerrero herself, on social media recently.

The ROW school has generated some big name talents like Roxanne Perez and it will be interesting to see how the young Guerrero does in honing her skills under the guidance of Booker T going forward. Tying things together with Mercedes Mone with her well documented admiration of ‘Latino Heat’ in the context of pro wrestling being a medium where you can book some fairly unorthodox matches if you’re inclined, who’s to say we can’t potentially get a Moné vs. Guerrero match years down the line?

Seth Rollins Announces Six-Month Absence Due to Injury

Seth Rollins has confirmed he will be sidelined for approximately six months following shoulder surgery, an injury sustained during his World Heavyweight Championship match against Cody Rhodes at WWE Crown Jewel on October 11 in Perth, Australia. The injury occurred when Rollins executed a coast-to-coast diving headbutt.

During an appearance on NFL Network’s Good Morning Football, Rollins addressed his recovery timeline with characteristic personality: “I’m out of action for six months. My World Championship is going to be worn by some schmuck, either Jey Uso or CM Punk.”

The injury forced Rollins to vacate the World Heavyweight Championship, with Raw General Manager Adam Pearce officially stripping him of the title on the October 20 episode of Raw. WWE accelerated storyline plans, having The Vision members Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed turn on Rollins during the October 13 Raw, effectively writing him off television.

CM Punk and Jey Uso will now compete for the vacant championship at Saturday Night’s Main Event on November 1. Rollins’ six-month absence means he will miss Survivor Series, the 2026 Royal Rumble, and potentially WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas on April 18-19, 2026. However, if his recovery progresses as expected, a late March or early April return could allow him to make WWE’s biggest show of the year.

Aleister Black Reveals Scrapped 2021 WWE Plans With Zelina Vega

Aleister Black and Zelina Vega are finally an on-screen alliance in WWE, but this partnership almost happened four years ago. In a new interview with The Takedown on SI, Black revealed that WWE had plans for the real-life couple to unite on television just before his release in the summer of 2021.

Black stated that the company was already preparing creative materials for the pairing. “We started shooting little vignettes for it, and we started creating outfits for it,” Black said. He also revealed a surprising origin for his early AEW aesthetic, noting it was repurposed from this scrapped WWE angle.

“That first mask that I ever wore when I worked with [AEW] was actually one of the masks that was utilized,” Black said. “If you remember the Dark Father character that was at the end of my initial run [with WWE], that would eventually see my wife joining me… that was one of the pitches”.

This was a significant change from Black’s previous stance. He noted that years ago, during a radio interview with Cincinnati’s ESPN1530, he was confident he and Vega would never be paired on WWE programming. However, the “aesthetic of them together caught the eye of upper management”.

Those plans were ultimately dropped when Black departed the company in 2021. Upon his return this past spring, the conversation started again, though it took time to get approval. Now that the alliance is official, Black and Vega are feuding with Damian Priest, who returned last week on SmackDown to cost Black a United States Championship match.

Major Plan For Survivor Series Involving John Cena’s Retirement Match

Major Plan For Survivor Series Involving John Cena’s Retirement Match

A significant storyline involving John Cena’s retirement was reportedly planned for Survivor Series just weeks ago, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The plan would see Cena capture the Intercontinental Championship from Dominik Mysterio at the November pay-per-view before defending it against GUNTHER in what would be Cena’s retirement match.

Dave Meltzer noted that Dominik Mysterio is the favorite to retain his title this weekend Saturday Night’s Main Event on November 1, specifically to preserve this Survivor Series angle. “Mysterio would be the favorite given there was the plan a few weeks ago of John Cena winning that title from Mysterio at Survivor Series and defending against Gunther in his retirement match,” Meltzer wrote.

The Intercontinental Championship will be on the line at Saturday Night’s Main Event in a Triple Threat match, with Mysterio defending against Penta and Rusev. The event takes place in Salt Lake City and streams exclusively on Peacock.

Survivor Series: WarGames is scheduled for November 29, 2025, at Petco Park in San Diego, California. The event will mark John Cena’s final appearance at a Survivor Series event as an in-ring performer. No matches have been officially announced for the show, other than at least one War Games match.

John Cena and Dominik Mysterio

John Cena has repeatedly shown a deep respect for Dominik Mysterio’s talent and potential, especially in recent interviews. On the April 21, 2025 episode of The Pat McAfee Show, Cena praised Dominik as someone who was “born for this,” saying he “makes everything effortless and doesn’t crack under pressure.” Cena emphasized that Dominik has excelled in every challenge WWE has thrown at him and predicted a bright future: “We aren’t even close to what that kid’s capable of… He will be the most famous Mysterio in professional wrestling” 

Cena’s comments reflect genuine admiration and set up Dominik as both a credible rival and potential torch-bearer for the next era.?

Mysterio, however, has embraced a sharply antagonistic tone towards Cena, often mixing disrespect with backhanded respect—playing perfectly into his heel persona.

In several recent interviews, Dominik has dismissed Cena as nothing more than an “old geezer” and made it clear he’d welcome the chance to end Cena’s career.

During an interview with Tony Free Dominik quipped, “If John Cena wants some, he can come get some… If that old geezer wants me to put a final nail in his coffin, I’ll be more than happy to. That’s what I’m here for.”

He’s also labeled Cena as “past his prime” and indicated he isn’t intimidated, saying Cena’s legacy ends with him.

This verbal jousting has added authenticity and energy to their ongoing storyline, with Dominik determined to establish himself over the “GOAT” John Cena while Cena offers both high praise and subtle challenges to the young star.?

Injured WWE Star Shares Recovery Update At 4-Month Mark

An injured WWE star has shared a positive update on their recovery. NXT’s Adriana Rizzo, who has been absent from the ring since April of this year, posted a video to Twitter showing her running on a treadmill at the “4-month mark” of her rehabilitation.

Rizzo previously revealed that she had suffered a torn ACL and meniscus. This was unfortunately not her first major injury. Rizzo suffered a torn Achilles back in 2023, which delayed her in-ring career. She also revealed that she had been working with a partially torn ACL for a year and a half before this most recent injury finally forced her to undergo surgery.

Rizzo signed with WWE in late 2022. She competed in an NXT Women’s Title #1 Contendership Battle Royal at a live event but would not become a regular presence at house shows until a year later.

At this time, it is not clear when Rizzo will be making her return to NXT. Before her injury, she was a member of the D’Angelo Family, but that group has since been disbanded.

Outside of the ring, Rizzo recently revealed that she is in a relationship with fellow NXT star Cutler James, a member of the faction DarkState.

Backstage News On Former AEW Champion’s TV Absence

Nyla Rose has been absent from AEW television for most of this year, which has led to fan speculation regarding her status with the company.

A report from Fightful has provided some clarity on the situation. According to the report, the former AEW Women’s World Champion is not injured. However, the report also notes that Nyla Rose’s name has not been mentioned in creative meetings.

It remains unclear why Rose has not been featured on AEW programming. This situation has also affected several other AEW wrestlers in recent times.

Despite her absence from AEW TV, Rose is still active in the ring. She has participated in several independent events, including the Jericho Cruise. Rose also competed in a match last weekend in Texas, where she defeated Charity King.

AEW President Tony Khan was asked about Nyla Rose’s status at the AEW All Out 2025 media scrum. Khan stated that the door is open for her to return. He also noted that other former champions have recently been brought back into storylines.

Two TNA Stars Have Signed New Contracts

Steph De Lander is officially under contract with TNA Wrestling. According to a report from Fightful Select, De Lander is signed to a deal that runs through June 2026, confirming her long-term status with the company. TNA had never publicly confirmed her contract situation, but this update clears up any speculation about her future.

Mance Warner has also signed a TNA deal with the same end date. The report notes that this is also the case for Warner, “who had also worked in TNA without a deal for quite some time.” He now joins De Lander as part of the locked-in roster.

Steph De Lander made her TNA debut in 2023 and made an immediate impact. However, her momentum was halted in August 2024 when a neck injury forced her out of action. Even while recovering, her name remained part of the conversation, and this deal confirms she is officially part of TNA’s future.

Mance Warner has brought chaos every time he has appeared on TNA programming, from backstage brawls to old-school beatdowns. With this new deal in place, he is set for more than just a cameo role. The confirmation for both wrestlers comes after a period of major roster changes in late 2025.

The two are an established on-screen couple in TNA, having been aligned since De Lander’s return from neck surgery in January 2025. Warner was most recently seen as the 20th entrant in the Call Your Shot Gauntlet match at the Bound For Glory event on October 12. This contract news comes during a celebratory time for the pair, as De Lander and Warner, who were engaged in April, officially got married on Wednesday, October 30.

Ricky Saints Comments On Potential Cody Rhodes Match In WWE

Ricky Saints is open to a rematch with Cody Rhodes.

The two stars have been linked together since Saints made his AEW debut by answering the TNT title open challenge held by the American Nightmare in 2020. The duo have become good friends since then. Ricky even got himself in trouble by being spotted with Rhodes at the 2023 Royal Rumble event while still being signed to the Tony Khan-owned promotion.

The former FTW champion was asked about a potential rematch with his mentor under the WWE banner while appearing on Busted Open Radio. Ricky Saints first said that he could see it being a great match. When Bishop Dyer talked about the history between the two, the NXT star mentioned that the story is already there:

“There is so much to it. When you add a real-life friendship to things and you have evidence and history of how things have gone, the story is within itself. I’m sure with time we’ll get to that point. It’s always funny to hear that as one of people’s dream matches. I’m with it, 1000%, obviously,”

After being kept away from spotlight for almost a year at the end of his AEW tenure, Ricky Saints has managed to turn his career around since joining NXT in February this year. He had a run with the North American Championship in April and Ricky then defeated Oba Femi at No Mercy last month to win the NXT Championship.

Watch: Former WWE Star Wins Boxing Debut In Seconds

Gable Steveson seems to have found his calling.

The Olympic Gold Medalist made his boxing debut for Dirty Boxing Championship, a new promotion started by MMA veteran Mike Perry, on Friday night.

He went up against 31-year-old Billy Swanson in the main event of Dirty Boxing 4. Thanks to his powerful uppercuts, Steveson picked up an easy victory, knocking his opponent out in mere seconds:

Gable Steveson signed a WWE NIL contract with much fanfare following an appearance at the 2021 SummerSlam event. He became only the second Olympic Gold Medalist after Kurt Angle to be signed by the promotion.

He was assigned to the Raw brand in the 2021 Draft but never wrestled on the show. After making some sporadic TV appearances, Steveson was quietly moved to the NXT brand.

The 25-year-old would finally make his in-ring debut during the 2023 NXT Great American Bash event. His match with Baron Corbin, however, ended in no-contest. This proved to be his only televised match as Gable was quietly released from his contract in May last year.

Though the young star seems to have found his rhythm in the combat sports world since the WWE departure. He won his MMA debut against Braden Peterson at LFA 217 last month, defeating his opponent in less than 2 minutes. Now this dominating boxing victory suggests that Steveson has a long career ahead.

Chris Jericho Reunites With Former WWE Best Friend Amid Return Rumors (Photo)

Chris Jericho reunited with his best friend at an interesting time.

The former AEW Champion attended tonight’s Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Dallas Stars ice hockey game from the Benchmark International arena in Tampa, Florida.

Though Jericho was not alone in this outing, and he was joined by none other than his former tag team partner and fellow Canadian Kevin Owens as seen in the Instagram photo he posted below:

Chris Jericho teamed with Kevin Owens during his List of Jericho era back in 2016-17. Their story eventually led to a match between the two at WrestleMania 33, which many still believe should have been the main event of the PPV that year.

The timing of this photo is notable, as Chris has taken a break from AEW TV in recent months. Despite no news of any injury, the former champion has not wrestled a match for the promotion since the Dynasty PPV back in April this year.

Coupled with the reports of his current deal with the company expiring at the end of the year and interest from WWE, this situation has led to fans speculating widely about Jericho’s wrestling future.

People believe that Y2J has done everything he could in Tony Khan’s promotion, and he is well-suited for a CM Punk-like return to WWE for one final run.

Whether or not it actually happens will be revealed in time, but it’s certain that the former WWE star is well aware of these talks, and he knew the effect this latest photo will have on the discourse about his future.

On X, Sherilyn responded to the support of fans. Guerrero shared that she knew she needed to wait for the right time to start her wrestling journey and is “fueled by fire.”

Sherilyn is the latest Guerrero to step foot in the ring, and follows in the footsteps of her late father Eddie, and her cousin Chavo. Sherilyn’s sister Shaul worked as Raquel Diaz in the WWE from 2010 to 2014, and appeared on AEW TV in 2020. Sherilyn’s mother Vickie would become a prominent figure in WWE following Eddie’s death in 2005.

Whether Sherilyn makes it to WWE like so many of her family members remains to be seen, but being part of ROW and having Booker T involved certainly helps her chances. Notable ROW alumni include Roxanne Perez and Trick Williams, both of whom have gone on to become multi-time champions in WWE.

Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on this next chapter in the Guerrero wrestling legacy.

Rumor Killer On WWE’s Parent Company Working With Chris Jericho

Rumors continue to circulate about Chris Jericho potentially returning to WWE, and recently, one advertisement for Fozzy garnered a lot of attention. The sponsored post on social media shared that Fozzy is coming to the UK in 2026, and that the tour is being presented by Divergent Promotions “by arrangement with TKO.”

This post led many to believe that TKO Group Holdings, WWE’s parent company, was working with Fozzy, and thus, Jericho would be returning to WWE. However, the truth is that the TKO working with Fozzy is not the same that is overseeing WWE. Instead, TKO UK is a UK-based events company that specializes in rock and metal events. The company has previously worked with Fozzy, including presenting the band’s ‘Save the World’ tour in November 2022.

Jericho last competed for WWE in 2018 and joined AEW the following year. 2019 would see Jericho become the first AEW World Champion, a title he held for six months before losing in early 2020 to Jon Moxley. While Jericho is open to returning to WWE, fans are reading too much into ‘TKO’ hosting the Fozzy tour.

Sami Zayn Says WWE U.S. Title Reign Was One of His Favorites

Sami Zayn’s time as WWE United States Champion has come to an end, but the Canadian is grateful for his time with the gold. On X, Zayn shared that his reign was great and memorable thanks to the quality of the matches he had.

“Been reflecting on my run as US Champion. One of my favorite things I’ve done in WWE. 8 weeks, 8 very different opponents, 8 bangers in a row. It’s hard to do something great. In the age of content, it’s even harder to do something memorable. It felt like this was both. Grateful.”

Zayn won the gold from Solo Sikoa during the August 29, episode of SmackDown, which took place in Lyon, France. The following week, Sami would reintroduce the U.S. Title open challenge, though his first title defense against John Cena ended in a no contest thanks to Brock Lesnar. Sami’s other title matches saw him face Rey Fenix, Carmelo Hayes, Je’Von Evans, Aleister Black, and Shinsuke Nakamura.

Zayn’s reign was ended by Ilja Dragunov during the October 17, edition of SmackDown. While Zayn’s reign was relatively brief, it did put Sami one step closer to WWE’s Grand Slam. Now, all Zayn needs is a WWE World Championship reign to enter the Grand Slam.

Sami Zayn’s time as U.S. Champion will always be special to the Canadian and he believes what he did during his reign will be remembered by fans. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Sami Zayn.
