WWE has officially confirmed that Kylie Rae has been stripped of the WWE ID Women’s Championship following her recent pregnancy announcement. Earlier this week, Rae shared on social media that she was expecting a child, which explained why she had vacated the Relentless PNW Championship. While fans congratulated her on the big news, there was immediate speculation about how WWE would handle her status as a reigning champion. The company has now made it clear by declaring the title vacant.

In its official statement, WWE ID celebrated Rae’s historic reign by noting that she will always be remembered as the first-ever WWE ID Women’s Champion. The promotion extended well wishes to Rae and her growing family, showing appreciation for her contributions while also preparing to crown a new champion. This marks yet another instance of WWE having to reshuffle title pictures due to real-life circumstances, adding intrigue to who will step up as the next Women’s Champion.

On the latest episode of WWE RAW, Jey Uso finally squared off against 42-year-old LA Knight, settling weeks of tension between the two. While Jey did manage to pick up the victory, the win wasn’t clean—The Vision interfered, tipping the scales in his favor. What was supposed to be Jey’s moment of revenge quickly turned into more questions about his mindset and loyalty.

After the match, chaos unfolded as Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker stalked LA Knight, looking to inflict further damage. At that point, Jimmy Uso appeared and pleaded with his brother to step in. Instead, Jey coldly walked away, refusing to back up Knight or even acknowledge the situation. This decision not only deepens the rift between Jey and his allies but also fuels speculation that his focus has shifted to Cody Rhodes’ Undisputed WWE Championship, as teased earlier during his conversation with The American Nightmare.

WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash (66) recently opened up about his health during his Kliq This podcast. Responding to a fan’s question, Nash revealed that after consulting with a cardiologist, it was discovered that he may have suffered a minor heart attack in the past without realizing it.

Doctors found scar tissue on his heart, a clear sign of prior cardiac damage. Nash compared the situation to what happened to his father, who also had a history of heart problems. While he didn’t provide extensive details on treatment or next steps, the revelation has understandably raised concern among fans regarding his long-term health.

FROM THE RUMOR MILL

Heading into Wrestlepalooza 2025, there was an internal pitch for Drew McIntyre to defeat Cody Rhodes and capture the Undisputed WWE Championship. According to Bodyslam.net, both Rhodes and McIntyre supported the idea, which included a dramatic twist where Randy Orton would interfere, costing Rhodes the title. This would have set the stage for a Rhodes–Orton feud, with Orton turning heel against his longtime friend.

However, WWE ultimately decided against the plan. Instead, McIntyre was defeated after injuring himself during a brutal spot, and Rhodes retained the championship. The rejection of the pitch not only kept Rhodes’ reign intact but also left Orton’s potential heel turn on hold, suggesting WWE has other long-term creative plans for both men.

John Cena endured a humiliating defeat at WWE Wrestlepalooza 2025, where Brock Lesnar completely dominated him in what may have been their final clash. The 17-time world champion, who is nearing the end of his legendary career, looked outmatched and left fans questioning his immediate future in WWE. With only a handful of appearances left before retirement, uncertainty surrounds how Cena will close out his run.

Looking ahead, Cena is officially advertised for WWE Crown Jewel in Perth on October 11, though he has not been scheduled for RAW or SmackDown in the weeks leading up to the event. Reports suggest that The Leader of the Cenation could issue an open challenge at the PLE, allowing any star on the roster to step up for a showdown on the international stage. This could be one of Cena’s final marquee moments before hanging up his boots for good.

ANALYSIS CORNER

With Wrestlepalooza in the rearview mirror, the ensuing RAW tried to address some issues while also putting others on the back burner. Jey Uso was still furious with LA Knight, so he petitioned for a singles match with The Megastar.

Jimmy Uso, however, wanted another crack at Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. Bayley fought through her personality shifts to beat Roxanne Perez. She then snapped at Lyra Valkyria yet again. Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes exchanged words ahead of their Crown Jewel Championship match in a few weeks. After weeks of tension, Asuka and Kairi Sane turned on IYO SKY.
