TOP STORIES TODAY
A two-time WWE Universal Champion, Goldberg, is retiring, a fact that has been inadvertently confirmed. While WWE has not made an official announcement, strong hints have emerged, such as merchandise being sold with the tagline "who's last," suggesting an upcoming match would be his final one.
Goldberg has now personally confirmed that he is retiring following his match against Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship. The 58-year-old Hall of Famer called it an honor to have such a formidable opponent for his farewell bout and stated definitively that this match will mark the end of his in-ring career.
 General Manager Nick Aldis announced key semifinal matches in the ongoing King and Queen of the Ring tournaments. Asuka will go head-to-head with Alexa Bliss, with both women aiming to secure a path to the finals. In the men’s bracket, Randy Orton faces Sami Zayn in a high-stakes battle. A win for Orton would mark his second consecutive KOTR final. Additionally, Aldis confirmed a personal grudge match between R-Truth and John Cena, where pride takes center stage. For Truth, it’s not about titles or glory, it’s about earning the respect of a WWE legend. |  Wrestling veteran Savio Vega has officially confirmed his return to WWE in a backstage role. In a recent interview, Vega revealed that he is now working as an agent for WWE, specifically focusing on events produced in collaboration with AAA. This comes after WWE announced the acquisition of the Mexican promotion AAA earlier this year, with full integration expected by August 2025. Vega shared insights into the evolving partnership, highlighting recent crossover events like Worlds Collide. With his experience and deep ties to the Latin American wrestling scene, Vega’s return signals WWE’s commitment to expanding its global reach through AAA. |
FROM THE RUMOR MILL
Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman’s new faction on RAW has quickly shaken things up, especially after recruiting Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. The group gained momentum following Reed's brutal attack on CM Punk at Saturday Night's Main Event.
According to BodySlam.net, WWE is considering adding more talent to the faction, with Ethan Page and Ricky Saints reportedly pitched as potential members. Both stars recently clashed over the NXT North American Championship, making their possible addition intriguing. While nothing is confirmed, internal talks suggest Rollins’ group could soon expand, further dominating Monday Night RAW.
TOP FEATURES
Nick Aldis has confirmed that a major match will take place on SmackDown. However, WWE may have unintentionally spoiled the outcome through a detail in its promotional material.
Fans observed that the official preview poster for the King & Queen of the Ring tournament featured select superstars with crowns on their heads. Interestingly, those same stars ended up winning their matches last week, leading many to believe the poster subtly reveals future victors. As anticipation builds, the WWE Universe is watching closely to see if this pattern continues tonight.
