The recent brand split between Monday Night Raw and SmackDown Live directly affected WWE's tag team division. This was to be expected, as it impacted WWE's singles wrestlers as well. This is what happens when there is such a dramatic change in operations. But it could be a much bigger deal for the tag teams in the company. Why? Because as of now, only one set of championships is available for these duos to compete for. So where does that leave the rest of the teams in WWE? There's some impressive talent who deserve to compete for tag team gold. Perhaps WWE will introduce ...

WWE United States champion Rusev and Lana officially tied the knot Friday in Malibu, California, and several Superstars were present for the wedding ceremony. The Ravishing Russian posted a number of photos on social media, including the following look at her elegant wedding dress: Lana also tweeted a shot of her special moment on the altar with the Bulgarian Brute: Rusev took to social media to share a picture of the happy couple on the beach as well: Since Lana is a new cast member on the E! reality show Total Divas, her wedding was well attended by many of the biggest female stars in ...

The first week of Raw vs. SmackDown under the latest WWE brand extension is history, and surprisingly enough, the tension between the shows was decidedly less than that of the elephants and donkeys running for the highest office in the land, making for an eventful yet subdued television product. Sasha Banks capped off her journey toward greatness by defeating Charlotte for the Women's Championship on Raw, and fellow NXT alum Finn Balor pinned Roman Reigns to earn a spot in the WWE Universal Championship match against Seth Rollins at SummerSlam in Brooklyn, New York. Those two moments helped to define the ...

This is the second-most popular list one could write about SummerSlam. But surprisingly, it’s difficult to brainstorm. There are many classic matches from the past 28 SummerSlams. There are many middling matches from the past 28 SummerSlams. But how many outright stinkers have there been at The Biggest Party of the Summer? They’re actually few and far between. It’d be easier to come up with a list detailing the worst matches at WrestleMania; the matches at SummerSlam are consistent by comparison. Each match on this list fulfills one of two possible qualifications (and in some cases, it fulfills both of them). One, ...

Twists, turns and unexpected No. 1 contenders defined the first week of the latest incarnation of WWE's brand extension, as Finn Balor and Dolph Ziggler came from out of nowhere to earn opportunities at their brands' respective world championships. For the first time since October 2015, Roman Reigns will not compete in a pay-per-view main event for the WWE Championship, and the result is a rejuvenated main event that has fans genuinely interested in what will unfold on August 21, when the Superstars of Vince McMahon's company invade the Barclays Center for SummerSlam. While the pros of Ziggler's and Balor's successes may ...

Following Sasha Banks' emotional WWE Women's Championship win over Charlotte on Monday's edition of Raw, it was announced Saturday that the Superstars will clash in a rematch at SummerSlam. WWE announced the news on Twitter, and Charlotte quickly vowed to get back at the new titleholder: The highly anticipated bout will take place on Aug. 21 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, which is the same venue at which Banks and Bayley had what many considered to be the match of the year at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn in 2015. Sasha and Charlotte have engaged in several battles dating back to their ...

Dean Ambrose's drafting to SmackDown Live gave the program immediate relevancy. Many fans suspected the move would happen, mainly for this reason. After all, if the company wanted the revitalized blue brand to start on a high note, it needed WWE's top title. But now that the new WWE Universal Championship is coming to Monday Night Raw, there is even more reason for SmackDown to get it right. All the pressure is on Ambrose to overachieve because, if he doesn't, SmackDown could fall behind. There's every reason to believe he will do just that. Ambrose is a star. He won the WWE Championship because ...

The past week has been a busy time in WWE. Not only did we have the Battleground pay-per-view, but we also got to see what Raw and SmackDown were like after the brand extension. Let's take a look at some of the biggest headlines from the past seven days.        John Cena's American Grit Renewed for Season 2 According to WWE.com, Fox has renewed John Cena's competition reality show American Grit for a second season, with Cena returning as a host and executive producer. For those who did not watch the first season, American Grit takes 16 civilians and splits them up into four ...

In the early stages of WWE's buildup to SummerSlam for Brock Lesnar and Randy Orton, some of the wood is already splintered. The big-time matchup of marquee stars has loads of potential. It's a fresh pairing of top-flight performers and a smart usage of both men. Issues with schedule and aura, though, threaten to hurt the hype surrounding the SummerSlam bout.  Major questions linger ahead of the next chapters of Lesnar vs. Orton. How much will The Beast Incarnate be around? Is Lesnar's manager, Paul Heyman, going to be a part of the fun? And is WWE going to continue to present Orton as ...

Nia Jax is sure to make her mark on WWE. The only question is how deeply she will dig her claws. The imposing and overpowering newcomer to Raw is still in the early stages of her development. It's hard to tell that at times, though. When Jax steamrolls an opponent, snarling like a hungry lion, it feels as if she was born for this business. Jax joined the Raw roster as part of the July 19 draft. She had previously been one of the toughest foes for members of the NXT women's division. Bayley survived Jax in a title match last December. Asuka barely got ...
