So today we’ll be taking a look at an update on Carmella’s condition, why Corey Graves
is calling John Cena a liar, and much more
Royal Rumble 2021 provided us with another intense matchup between Carmella and Sasha
Banks
We’ve seen Carmella and Sasha Banks go at it with all each other over the last few months,
we’ve even seen Sasha Banks take down Carmella’s partner, Reginald, as well
It was a hard hitting great match by both superstars, but there was one easily noticeable
hard fall that Carmella went through
While diving in between the ropes, Carmella appeared to have a rough fall outside of the
ring
To her credit, Carmella got right back up and continued the match, but her boyfriend,
Corey Graves, recently gave an update on her well being after that hard looking fall
Corey Graves had this to say about Carmella’s fall and how she’s been doing:
“Yes, I'm biased, but I enjoyed the hell out of Sasha Banks and Carmella.
I think since Carmella has come back, she has stepped up her game.
I know for a fact that she's studying harder than ever, training harder than ever, I think
it's starting to pay off.”
“Anyone watching when that dive happened and Carmella went sailing through the bottom
rope, and I believe it’s known as a scorpion --that’s what my kids call it when we watch
fail videos [and] when somebody’s feet hit the back of their head-- it was not a good
time.
She landed face-first and I’m pretty sure she kicked herself in the back of the head.
She was a little banged up but she’s still alive, she’s still kicking, she’ll be
alright.”
It was a very scary looking moment in the match that seemed like it did bang her up
a bit, but thankfully she seems to be doing fine according to Corey
Corey also mentioned how he continues to see the improvement in Carmella’s performance
week after week and this is definitely true as well
Even the Carmella character itself is probably the best she’s ever been right now, the
character feels rich and refreshed
Everyone loved classic “princess of staten island” Carmella, but there wasn’t that
much of a deep character going on there, but now she actually has a deep character and
personality to her character
She’s truly about being the best, having standout clothing, and this whole idea of
being untouchable, so not only has she been stepping it up in the ring, she has stepped
it up from a character point of view as well
It’s unknown what Carmella will do after finishing her feud with Sasha Banks, but it
seems like WWE will definitely keep her in the loop, and keep on television, so be on
the lookout for what’s next for Carmella

John Cena made headlines this week after saying that he won’t be apart of Wrestlemania 37
at all
It’s an insane stat to think about, but John Cena has been involved in someway at
Wrestlemania dating back to his first every Wrestlemania in 2003
He hasn’t missed one since, so for him to say he’s missing this years Wrestlemania
is quite the big deal
Of course you have your fans that believe what John Cena is saying because he’s legitimately
on set right now for this HBO series, but then you have other fans that believe Cena
could be hiding a big Wrestlemania surprise as well
Corey Graves is one of those individuals that is calling John Cena a liar and doesn’t
believe that he’s actually going to miss Wrestlemania this year
Corey Graves has this to say when speaking about John Cena’s comments:
“I don’t buy it.
Because it should be John Cena at WrestleMania in some capacity.
There’s a lot of truth to what he’s saying, it makes sense, I understand it.
But there’s also a guy as recent as the Royal Rumble last year told everybody he’s
not coming back under any circumstance.
Yeah, Edge, the guy who just won the Royal Rumble did the same thing.”
So Corey Graves brings up a great point, it’s pretty unbelievable for John Cena to just
easily dismiss Wrestlemania and keep going about his business because that just seems
pretty weird and out of character for him
But then again with today’s circumstances, it seems like John Cena is telling the truth
If by some chance John Cena actually does appear on Wrestlemania, they probably won’t
advertise it and it’ll be a small role, sort of like his match with Undertaker from
a few years ago
The match was never officially confirmed by WWE and they left it as a surprise for the
show
Then the next year at Wrestlemania 35, John Cena had another surprise appearance where
he confronted Elias
So Cena is used to doing these small surprise appearances at Wrestlemania but like Cena
said himself, things are much different right now, he has to quarantine for 2 weeks when
he leaves the HBO set and quarantine again for 2 weeks when he goes back to the HBO set,
so a whole 4 weeks of quarantining will set back his projects by a lot...
So that’s why it does seem like a Wrestlemania Appearance is actually impossible this year,
but we’ll have to wait and see what happens with John Cena, maybe Corey Graves is right
and we do see Cena in some capacity at Wrestlemania 37 after all

The Undertaker found himself in the middle of some controversy for his comments about
how the superstars in his era were more tough than the current locker-room
Undertaker’s comments exploded and it seemed like every current WWE superstar was a little
offended by his comments
Roman Reigns even responded and said that undertaker “sounded like a retired guy trying
to sound gangster”
Undertaker had a lot of responses from WWE individuals, but Edge recently responded and
he said that he feels like Undertaker was taken out of context
Edge had this to say:
“I think any comment can be taken out of context and I think that’s part of what
happened here.
During a three-hour interview, I think they took the most salacious 20-second clip.
I think anybody, whoever steps foot into the wrestling ring, no matter what era – whether
it be the 1940s, whether it be the 2020s – all tough.”
“There’s different challenges that come with every era, with every decade, with every
incarnation of what this business becomes.
We didn’t have the challenge of social media.
Now it’s a great outlet in order to get your product out there, but there’s also
a whole lot of hiccups and possible bumps on the road that come along with that.”
“That’s a challenge we didn’t have to navigate.
All we had to worry about getting to the building and producing.
Now the cameras never stops rolling.
Now every aspect of your life that is under a microscope.
That’s an entirely different challenge than we ever encountered.
It’s just different is all..”
Edge most definitely had one of the best responses to the Undertaker’s comments and it makes
a lot of sense
This current locker-room has to deal with a massive challenge that Undertaker’s era
never had to deal with and that’s of course social media
Like Edge said, the cameras never stop rolling anymore, the superstars’ lives are constantly
up front and center because of social media, they always have eyes on them
Back in Undertaker’s era, the second they went behind the curtain, you had no way of
seeing that superstars’ personal life and you just saw them the following week on Raw
So it was a massive new challenge that Edge brought up about this current era, it’s
something that never existed in the 90s
Edge has competed in the 90s, 2000s, 10s, and now the 20s, so he’s technically been
apart of a lot of different locker-rooms, so if anyone can speak on the situation it’s
definitely him
What Undertaker said is also what we see from other athletes in different sports as well.
NBA legends and NFL legends always say that the era they played in was the best era, they’re
very proud of the era they were in
So maybe that’s the same sort of idea Undertaker was trying to get at, he’s just really proud
of the era he came up in and views it as the undisputed best era of all
But what did you think about Edge’s response to the Undertaker’s comments?
Did Edge make some great points about him being taken out of context?
What did you think about today’s other stories with Carmella and John Cena as well?
