0

At WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Seth Rollins faced LA Knight but their showdown came to an abrupt end. During the match, Rollins appeared to tweak his knee and was tended to by medical staff in the corner. After a few awkward moments, Knight would hit a BFT to end the match and Rollins would be helped to the back.

Fans have been wondering if Rollins was legitimately hurt, or if this was simply part of a bigger story. Unfortunately, it appears Rollins is hurt for real. Fightful Select reports that the word backstage in WWE is that this situation is genuine.

PW Insider reports that Rollins was originally booked to defeat LA Knight at the show. Knight winning was a last-second call due to Rollins tweaking his knee. It is unclear how long he will need time off for, but this setback is already affecting WWE’s plans.

WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg’s final match did not go as he hoped as he came up short at Saturday Night’s Main Event. In the final match of the night, Goldberg battled World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER. Despite a valiant effort by the former WCW World Champion, GUNTHER got the win by choking Goldberg out in his native Atlanta.

Speaking after the match, Goldberg apologized to the live crowd for not getting the win and the World Heavyweight Championship. Nevertheless, Goldberg was grateful for the friends and family who had made the trip to see his final match in person.

For Goldberg, the question is no longer ‘Who’s Next?’ but rather ‘What’s Next?’ As Goldberg prepares for life outside of the ring, it remains to be seen what’s to come for the WWE Hall of Famer.

WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event did not go as Seth Rollins had intended as Mr. Money in the Bank may have suffered an injury. In the penultimate match on the card, Rollins battled LA Knight, continuing their feud that began when Knight moved to Monday Night Raw.

During the closing moments of the match, Rollins appeared to suffer some kind of leg injury and collapsed into the corner, clutching his knee. After a few moments of hesitation, Knight would hit his BFT to get the win. Rollins was tended to by medical staff both before and after the finish.

A potential injury to Rollins would be an awful thing for WWE, who would lose one of their very top Superstars. The fact that Rollins is the current Mr. Money in the Bank throws another wrench into plans, and an injury could force WWE to change course.

Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Seth Rollins as we hope to get an update on the condition on the former WWE World Champion.

Hangman Page Wins AEW World Title In Brutal Texas Death Match

0

In an incredibly violent and chaotic Texas Death Match, “Hangman” Adam Page has defeated Jon Moxley in the main event of AEW All In: Texas to become the new AEW World Champion. The bout was filled with extreme weapons, brutal spots, and constant interference from numerous stars.

The match descended into violence almost immediately, with both competitors using weapons ranging from forks and barbed wire to broken glass. In one of several horrifying moments, Moxley slammed Page with a piledriver onto a pile of broken glass. Later in the match, a bed of nails was introduced, with Moxley hitting his Paradigm Shift finisher on Page directly onto the nails. Despite the immense punishment, Page repeatedly managed to get to his feet just before the 10-count.

The match was defined by a revolving door of interferences. Members of Moxley’s Death Riders faction—Marina Shafir, Wheeler Yuta, Claudio Castagnoli, and Gabe Kidd—repeatedly got involved, at one point taking out Will Ospreay who had to be stretchered away. This led to the surprise returns of Bryan Danielson and Darby Allin, who rappelled from the stadium roof, to even the odds. The Young Bucks also appeared, attacking Page with an EVP Trigger. The finish came after Swerve Strickland appeared, tossing a steel chain to Page. “Hangman” used the chain to hit a Buckshot Lariat that sent Moxley onto the bed of nails, then used the chain to hang Moxley until he submitted to win the title.

Page’s championship victory capped off a newsworthy night in Arlington. Earlier in the evening, Kazuchika Okada became the inaugural AEW Unified Champion, Daniel Garcia captured the vacant TNT Championship after Adam Cole was forced to relinquish it due to injury, and Athena won the Women’s Casino Gauntlet to earn a future world title shot.

WWE Evolution 2 just got even bigger as a huge stipulation has been added to one of the most personal matches on the show’s card. It’s been confirmed that Bianca Belair will be part of the show, though she won’t be competing in the ring.

At WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Jade Cargill was spotlighted in the crowd, but was attacked by Miss Money in the Bank Naomi. 24 ahead of their No Holds Barred match, the duo brawled before security kept them apart. A frustrated Nick Aldis then shared that Belair will be the guest referee of their upcoming match.

Belair is no stranger to either Naomi or Cargill, and played a key role in their trio’s break-up earlier this year. It remains to be seen if the EST will be able to remain neutral when she officiates this highly personal No Holds Barred match at WWE Evolution.

WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event will be a show Jelly Roll may never forget, only because it may prove to be a night he can’t remember. During the show’s opener, Randy Orton, was was accompanied by Jelly Roll, defeated Drew McIntyre.

After the match, Logan Paul, who had accompanied McIntyre, attacked Orton. Jelly Roll would throw down with Paul and floor the former United States Champion. As Jelly Roll celebrated this moment though, he was floored by a Claymore Kick by McIntyre.

Jelly Roll’s role at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event comes amid reports of a match for the music artist at WWE SummerSlam 2025. Later on at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Nick Aldis and Adam Pearce was seen infuriated with Paul and McIntyre.

Jelly Roll is the latest celebrity to get physical in WWE, and now a match seems to be coming. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Jelly Roll’s work inside the squared circle.

Kazuchika Okada Becomes Inaugural AEW Unified Champion At All In

0

In a dramatic, hard-hitting contest at AEW All In: Texas, Kazuchika Okada defeated Kenny Omega to become the first-ever AEW Unified Champion. The match was a back-and-forth classic marred by constant interference from the Don Callis Family.

Throughout the match, Okada targeted the abdomen of Kenny Omega, the site of his previous surgery for diverticulitis. While Omega mounted several comebacks, including a series of V-Triggers and a twisting full-nelson slam from the top rope, Okada continually went back to attacking the midsection to regain control.

The final minutes of the match were defined by chaos at ringside. After Don Callis, who was on commentary, attacked Omega on the outside, his family member Rocky Romero also attempted to interfere but was neutralized by the timely arrival of Kota Ibushi. The most pivotal moment came when Omega successfully hit the One Winged Angel on Okada, but Callis pulled referee Bryce Remsburg from the ring before the three-count. After a new official, Aubrey Edwards, entered the ring, Okada capitalized on the chaos and hit a decisive Rainmaker to secure the victory.

Okada’s historic victory was a key highlight of a newsworthy night at All In.

Randy Orton Wants to Play Batman in the DCU

Randy Orton recently responded to a tweet from @ScreenTime asking, “Who do you think should play Batman in James Gunn’s DCU?” with a simple waving hand emoji—just enough to stir speculation among fans that the 14-time world champion may be interested in donning the iconic Batsuit.

While Orton didn’t confirm anything outright, his subtle reply adds him to the ongoing conversation about casting for one of DC’s most iconic roles. His name would join a growing list of WWE talent who’ve successfully crossed into major film franchises. John Cena earned praise for his role as Peacemaker in the DC Universe, while Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson starred as Black Adam. Over in the MCU, Dave Bautista has made a lasting impression as Drax in the Guardians of the Galaxy films.

Though nothing more than an emoji at this stage, Orton’s response has fans in both the wrestling and superhero communities curious about whether “The Viper” could be the next WWE star to make a big leap to the big screen.

Adam Copeland Returns At AEW All In After Shocking Betrayal

0

The AEW World Tag Team Championship match at All In: Texas ended with retained champions, but the aftermath saw a stunning betrayal and the shocking return of Adam Copeland.

In a chaotic three-way match, The Hurt Syndicate (Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin) successfully defended their AEW World Tag Team Championships against JetSpeed and The Patriarchy. The end came after FTR appeared, distracting Christian Cage and allowing Lashley to hit a spear for the pinfall victory. Following the match, Cage was brutally attacked by his own protégé, Nick Wayne, with Kip Sabian joining in on the assault. Nick Wayne’s mother, who was at ringside, slapped Cage repeatedly before they set him up for a con-chair-to.

Just as Wayne was about to strike, the music of Adam Copeland hit, and the WWE Hall of Famer sprinted to the ring to make the save. Copeland cleared the ring, delivering spears to Nick Wayne, Kip Sabian, and both members of FTR. In a tense and emotional moment, Copeland then helped his former friend and rival, Christian Cage, to his feet. Instead of offering a hug, Copeland looked him in the eyes and said, “Go find yourself,” before leaving a stunned Cage alone in the ring.

This marks Copeland’s first appearance in AEW since he was taken out of action by Malakai Black in a brutal assault on an episode of Dynamite this past April. His return adds another volatile element to the landscape of AEW and the future of Christian Cage.

Athena Wins Women’s Casino Gauntlet Match At AEW All In

0

A new number one contender for the AEW Women’s World Championship has been determined at AEW All In: Texas. After a chaotic Casino Gauntlet match, the former ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena, stood tall to earn a future title opportunity.

Entering the match as a late entrant, Athena made her presence felt immediately by targeting multiple competitors. Her path of destruction included delivering several powerbombs to Mina Shirakawa and taking out Thekla, Tay Melo, Kris Statlander, and Megan Bayne. The match also featured the surprise AEW debut of Syuri, who had a brief confrontation with the dominant Athena.

The final moments of the gauntlet saw Athena outlast a field that included Thunder Rosa, Willow Nightingale, and Queen Aminata. She secured the victory by pinning Mina Shirakawa after hitting her signature finisher, “The O-Face.” The win guarantees Athena a future match for the AEW Women’s World Championship.

Athena will now await the outcome of the AEW Women’s World Championship match scheduled for later tonight. The reigning champion, Toni Storm, is set to defend her title against “The CEO” Mercedes Moné. Athena will challenge the winner of that high-stakes encounter at a future date.

WWE SmackDown Segment Caused A Match To Be Shortened

0

Many WWE fans were left surprised after the match between R-Truth and Aleister Black on last night’s Friday Night SmackDown lasted only 90 seconds. A new report has shed light on the situation, revealing that the bout was drastically shortened due to a previous segment running long.

According to a report from PWInsiderElite.com, the match between Truth and Black had to be cut for time on the fly. The preceding segment, which involved musical guest Jelly Roll and United States Champion Logan Paul, went much longer than was initially planned in the show’s format. As a result, the following match lost the majority of its allotted time. A WWE source reportedly described the decision as a “necessary evil” to keep the live broadcast on schedule.

The report also noted that while the outcome of the match—R-Truth getting the victory—went as planned, the bout was originally scheduled to be a much longer and more competitive contest. The one-sided nature of the match was not the initial intention. The surprisingly short match caught many backstage off guard, given the strong push R-Truth has received since his return and the plans for Aleister Black’s ascension on the SmackDown roster. It was clarified that the time cut is not seen as a negative reflection on either superstar and their pushes will continue.

While neither R-Truth nor Aleister Black are scheduled for a match at tonight’s Saturday Night’s Main Event, it has been announced that Logan Paul will appear on next week’s episode of SmackDown to address his plans for the upcoming SummerSlam premium live event.

Adam Cole Gives Emotional Address, Unsure Of Future

0

Just hours after it was announced that he was not medically cleared to compete, Adam Cole appeared at AEW All In: Texas to address the fans. In an emotional in-ring promo, Cole discussed his health and his uncertain future in professional wrestling.

Before the newly-announced four-way match for the TNT Championship he vacated, Adam Cole came to the ring and spoke directly to the fans in attendance. He confirmed that he has been dealing with health issues and is facing a lengthy absence from the ring, admitting that he is not sure if he will be able to return.

“It’s really hard to put it into words and I’m sorry I can’t wrestle,” Cole said. “I have health issues that have been going on for a while and that I’ll be gone for a while. I don’t even wanna talk about retiring since I’m not in the headspace, but I wanted to address the fans if this is goodbye for me.”

Cole was then joined in the ring by the other members of his faction, Paragon, as they shared a moment in the ring. The segment added an emotional and somber note to the event, with Cole’s future in AEW now in serious doubt. Cole had been scheduled to defend the TNT Championship against Kyle Fletcher before the injury forced him to relinquish the title earlier today.

Immediately following Cole’s address to the live crowd, the four-way match for the vacant TNT Championship was held. After a chaotic encounter, Daniel Garcia was able to pin Sammy Guevara to win the match and become the new TNT Champion.

0

Former WWE Divas Champion Kelly Kelly revealed she turned down an invitation to attend WWE’s all-women’s Premium Live Event, Evolution II, scheduled for July 13th.

Kelly was invited to sit in the crowd but felt it wasn’t the right way to return to WWE, preferring a more active role.

She expressed her sentiments through a post on X, emphasizing her pride in her participation in the first Evolution in 2018 and her readiness to return when the time is right.

“Thank you love ?,I was So honored to be invited to Evolution II, to sit in the crowd it just didn’t feel like the right way to come back. I’ll always be proud to have been part of the first, my heart is with every woman in that ring tomorrow. I’ll be back when the time’s right??”

Josh Mathews Appears On AEW All In Zero Hour Pre-Show

0

Former WWE and TNA Wrestling personality Josh Mathews has officially made his on-screen debut for AEW. Mathews appeared as part of the panel on the All In: Texas Zero Hour pre-show.

During the live pre-show, host Renee Paquette welcomed Mathews to the panel, which also included Paul Wight, Jeff Jarrett, and RJ City. After giving some thoughts on the card for today’s event, Mathews introduced a pre-recorded interview segment that he conducted with the team of Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland.

It was first reported by PWInsider in May that Mathews had been working backstage for both AEW and Ring of Honor. Mathews later confirmed his role, stating he was shadowing AEW’s Vice President of Post-Production, Mike Mansury, and assisting with ROH tapings. Prior to joining AEW, Mathews had a long career as an announcer and interviewer in WWE and later worked in both on-screen and backstage roles for TNA Wrestling, departing that company in February 2025.

The interview segment Mathews hosted was with two men in one of the biggest matches at All In. Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland are set to face The Young Bucks in a match with major implications. According to the official stipulations, if Ospreay and Strickland lose, they cannot challenge for the AEW World Championship for one year. However, if they win the match, Matthew and Nicholas Jackson will be stripped of their titles as Executive Vice Presidents of AEW.

Adam Cole Not Cleared for AEW All In, TNT Championship Vacated

0

Last-minute medical concerns force title change just hours before pay-per-view

In a stunning announcement delivered just 90 minutes before AEW All In: Texas, President Tony Khan revealed that TNT Champion Adam Cole has not been medically cleared to compete and must vacate the championship.

Khan announced via social media livestream that he “cannot clear Adam Cole to go out there and wrestle today” and is asking Cole to “take some time away to make sure he’s clear.”

The decision comes after Cole’s last match on the July 10th episode of AEW Collision, where he teamed with Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong against The Don Callis Family.

New Four-Way Match Created

With Cole’s scheduled TNT Championship defense against Kyle Fletcher canceled, AEW has restructured the bout into a fatal four-way match for the vacant title. The participants are:

  • Kyle Fletcher – The original #1 contender
  • Daniel Garcia – Former TNT Champion
  • Sammy Guevara – Former TNT Champion and current ROH World Tag Team Champion
  • Dustin Rhodes – Current ROH World Tag Team Champion and veteran

Both Guevara and Rhodes are also scheduled to compete on the Zero Hour pre-show, teaming with The Von Erichs against Shane Taylor Promotions in an eight-man tag team match.

Cole’s Championship Run Ends

Adam Cole held the AEW TNT Title for 97 days with three successful title defenses. This marks another setback for Cole, who previously missed an entire year from September 2023 through October 2024 due to a non-contact ankle injury that required two surgeries.

The nature of Cole’s current medical issue has not been disclosed by AEW officials. The company’s medical team and Khan made the precautionary decision to prioritize the wrestler’s long-term health.

AEW All In: Texas continues as scheduled at Globe Life Field in Arlington, with the vacant TNT Championship now adding an element of unpredictability to the already stacked card.

Backstage Update On Britt Baker’s AEW Future

0

Despite recent online speculation that she was looking to leave the company, new reports and comments from AEW President Tony Khan suggest that Dr. Britt Baker isn’t going anywhere. The former AEW Women’s World Champion is expected to return to the company when the time is right.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, not only is Baker not attempting to get out of her contract, but “the belief internally is that she will be back in the mix eventually.” This sentiment was echoed by Tony Khan during the AEW All In media call. When asked about Baker’s future, Khan was direct.

“She’s never talked to me about leaving,” Khan stated, explaining that like a sports team, AEW has a limited number of television spots and sometimes has to rotate talent. He added that Baker will be used “when the time is right.”

The speculation about Baker’s future has been fueled by her long absence from AEW television. Her last match was in September 2024, where she defeated Penelope Ford on an episode of AEW Collision. However, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter also noted that due to time missed from various injuries, Baker’s AEW contract could potentially extend into 2027.

While Baker will not be a part of today’s All In: Texas event, the AEW women’s division will be prominently featured. The show includes two major women’s matches: Toni Storm will defend the AEW Women’s World Championship against Mercedes Moné, and a Casino Gauntlet match will be held to determine a future title contender.

0

An inactive AEW star has confirmed his status for All In Texas.

The Elite promotion is set to present the 2025 edition of its flagship PPV from Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, today, on July 12. The company is usually known to deliver big at their premium shows with 5-star matches as well as plenty of surprises and unexpected moments for the fans.

One such moment many were hoping to see was the return of Keith Lee, after the heavyweight star confirmed last month that his health was not the reason for his continued absence from TV.

“Please tell the youngling that I must request his forgiveness as I will be absent. However, I am hopeful you guys have an absolute blast. Enjoy yourselves! All my love and gratitude.”

Keith Lee is on the list of wrestling stars that have not been seen on AEW TV for a long time without any explanation behind his absence.

His last televised match came during a December 2023 Collision episode. After being pulled from a scheduled Worlds End match that month, Lee announced that he’ll be undergoing double surgery and he has been away ever since.

Trish Stratus Discusses Lacklustre Build For Evolution 2

0

Trish Stratus has commented on the rushed build to Evolution 2.

The return of the All Women PPV had been something both the fans and the female roster had been demanding for a long time. The promotion finally gave in when they announced Evolution 2, almost 7 years after the first show.

The build for the PPV has been lacklustre, however. With the officials focusing on their return to Saudi Arabia, they hadn’t announced any main roster matches for the show until only a couple of weeks ago. The rivalries have also not been given much time to develop before the PPV.

The WWE Hall of Famer commented on this during a recent interview with NotSam Wrestling. Trish Stratus first noted how the whole match card for the PPV has been put together in a hurry:

“This entire card has seemed to be a quick turnaround as it is unfortunately, and I get it, there’s like 7,000 events a month, it seems like.”

Very Boring Segment: Trish Stratus

Trish Stratus is scheduled to challenge Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton for her title at the PLE this Sunday. Fortunately for the two stars, WWE had teased this feud before, so their rivalry feels less rushed than some other matches on the card. The wrestling veteran noted how they’ve had a built-in storyline for their match because their similar career paths and looks.

When asked if her brain switches to wrestling mode whenever she is back in WWE, Stratus replied positively. She said both her and Tiffany are looking to deliver in their match at the PPV even if they have not been given the best conditions to develop their story:

“Yes, 1,000 percent and there’s a little bit of a saying, like, ‘You can only control what you can control.’ Do I wish there was a bigger build? Do I wish we had a longer segment? Do I wish we didn’t have a very boring segment last week on SmackDown? Sure (she laughed). But, it is what it is.

You get your time, you do your thing and sometimes things get thrown together. It is what it is, right? To me, the thing I control is the match. I will control the match; we will control the match. We will tell the story; we’ll control the narrative and that’s where I know I can do the work.”

Evolution 2 will take place from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia on this Sunday, July 13. You can check out which match will main event the show here.

Latest Clarification on Hulk Hogan Health Rumors

0

Hulk Hogan’s wife has confirmed his health status.

Rumors about the WWE Hall of Famer’s condition started spreading when radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge claimed that the wrestling veteran was in ‘dire’ condition in the hospital and battling for his life.

Reports later confirmed that Hogan had indeed been admitted to the hospital, though it was for treatment related to his back issues.

Now Hulk’s wife Sky Hogan, has provided a further update on his condition. While responding to a fan on social media, she confirmed that the rumors of the 71-year-old being in coma and suffering brain damage are not true:

Shotzi Blackheart Is Your New Indy God, Attacks Indi Hartwell

0

Since being released from WWE, Shotzi Blackheart has redefined herself as the ‘Indy God,’ a moniker that Matt Cardona has been using since his own WWE exit in 2020. After brawls, ambushes, and legal documents, the two finally met in the ring with one person left standing tall.

At GCW’s Boss of All Bosses, the pair finally met in the ring. Despite nursing a broken hand suffered at the hands of Cardona, Shotzi held nothing back. Blackheart arrived in an Indiana Jones inspired attire, a motif that Cardona has previously used.

Shotzi overcame her injury to defeat Cardona, seemingly cementing herself as the one, true Indy God. Her night was far from over though, as after her match, she made her way to a House of Glory Wrestling event. There, she attacked Indi Hartwell, who had previously pitched herself as the God of the independent scene.

Shotzi also had some strong words after her attack on Hartwell.

Shotzi Blackheart is proving to be a vengeful God, one who does not take kindly to others trying to claim her throne. With a war with Hartwell brewing, it may be a matter of time before the pair meet with gold on the line.

Jelly Roll Involved With Top WWE Stars In SmackDown Return

0

Jelly Roll has started the build for his SummerSlam match.

The signing star returned to WWE on this week’s episode of SmackDown for a performance. Before he could complete his show however, Logan Paul interrupted.

Paul started berating Roll for being an outsider before claiming that WWE loves him. The YouTuber also announced that his Impaulsive podcast has signed a new long-term deal with the company.

The Rapper finally had enough, and he cut the former US Champion off to tell him that no one cares. Randy Orton then showed up and exchanged words with Logan.

Drew McIntyre, however, came out of nowhere and levelled the Viper with a Claymore kick. The security dragged McIntyre away but Logan Paul used the opportunity to start beating up Orton. It was Jelly Roll who made the save for Randy as he slammed the fellow celebrity into the mat before helping Randy up.

The Legend Killer is set to square off against The Scottish Psychopath at Saturday Night’s Main Event on July 12. So their interaction tonight is not out of place.

Though with the report of Jelly Roll being eyed for a match at SummerSlam, it seems likely that this feud will continue beyond SNME and the two former world champions will be involved with the celebrity wrestlers at the PPV next month.

Brodie Lee Jr. Pulls Double Duty With ROH & GCW Appearances

0

Brodie Lee Jr. is learning all about the grind of the wrestling business after making multiple appearances on Friday, July 11. The young wrestling prodigy pulled double duty with surprise appearances at both ROH Supercard of Honor and GCW Boss of All Bosses.

Brodie Jr. first appeared during the Zero Hour portion of Supercard of Honor, aligning himself with the Dark Order (Evil Uno, John Silver, and Alex Reynolds). During the Dark Order’s match with the Frat House (Preston Vance, Griff Garrison, and Cole Karter), Brodie provided a crucial distraction that helped the Dark Order pick up the win.

Later, Brodie Jr. turned up at GCW’s Boss of All Bosses, walking out alongside Man Like Dereiss. During the show, Brodie got physical with Joey Janela. The young star delivered a series of crowd-popping moves, including a satellite DDT, a superkick, and a Canadian Destroyer. He also delivered a discus lariat, a touching nod to his late father.

Earlier this year, Brodie Jr. officially made his in-ring debut at Joey Janela’s Spring Break, where he won the Clusterf***k Battle Royal. Between this win and these apprearances for ROH and GCW, its clear that Brodie Jr. is just getting started.
