Today's News

Payback:


WWE have announced more matches for their next PPV special...


  • Dolph Ziggler vs Sheamus.
  • King Barrett vs Neville.
  • Cesaro & Tyson Kidd vs New Day (Tag Team Championship) 2 out of 3 falls.
  • Mega Powers 2.0 vs The Ascension (Pre Show).

It was also announced that should Seth Rollins lose his title, Kane would be sacked from the Authority.

The official theme song is "Friction" by Imagine Dragons.

Bryan contemplates retirement:


Daniel Bryan has vacated the Intercontinental Championship. He came out on Raw, at his request, to give the title back, and to update fans on his future. He says his doctors do not know how badly he is hurt, or how long he will be out, it could be weeks, it may be months, or he may be done, and a return could be impossible for him.

WWE had given Bryan until the end of the month to return, but the results of an MRI on his shoulder made it quite clear that was not going to be possible, so Bryan asked for the TV time to make the announcement of vacating, rather than WWE starting an angle to crown a new champion without him.


PPV returns:


WWE have announced Elimination Chamber is coming back as a Network exclusive. Two chamber matches will be on the card, one to crown a new IC Champion, the other will be a Tag Team Championship chamber match. The special will be on May 31 in Corpus Christie, Texas. The World and US Championships will also be defended, but not in the chamber.

The decision was made hours before the announcement, and the talent were not informed ahead of time, leaving them surprised.

A live event in Carolina has been cancelled as a result of this new addition to the calender.
