So today, we’re going to be discussing how WWE finally addressed the leaked Alexa Bliss
and Sasha Banks images, Paige and Alberto Del Rio’s situation, and much more
Let’s start things off with the leaked Alexa Bliss and Sasha Banks images
We briefly mentioned these leaked pictures a few weeks ago when they first came out and
it seems like WWE has just provided some context for the images
So what are we talking about?
Well WWE leaked some huge images of Alexa Bliss and Sasha Banks taking part in this
mysterious photoshoot, but they didn’t provide much details or information
They just showed Alexa and Sasha on set and pretty much left everything up in the air
for the fans to discuss
With all the rumors going around about The Undertaker’s appearance at Survivor Series
and especially with Sasha’ image, where she literally has on his attire while she’s
doing his signature gesture, everyone figured this was undertaker related
Fast forward a few weeks and we have WWE’s official reveal about the leaked images.
It was in fact related to The Undertaker.
The photoshoot, like many assumed, did turn out to be a tribute photoshoot for the undertaker
leading up to his final farewell at Survivor Series
So we’ve seen the leaked version of the photoshoot, but WWE just dropped the first
official image of the photoshoot and it’s absolutely visually amazing
The first image they released show Alexa Bliss on the bottom half with Jeff Hardy standing
over her while he’s also wearing The Undertaker’s gear
As of right now, that’s the only image WWE has released from the photoshoot, but there’s
definitely more images on the way
We already know that Sasha Banks did take part in this same exact photoshoot, so be
on the lookout for her image from the photoshoot to be released soon
It seems like some of the male superstars took part in this photoshoot as well, so WWE
is likely sitting on a lot of great images from this photoshoot, and they will continue
to be released as we get closer and closer to WWE Survivor Series 2020

Everyone likely remembers the non-stop drama between Paige and Alberto Del Rio from a few
years ago
It was a dark time for Paige and basically all their issues were showcased to the public
Everyday was something new with them.
They were getting detained by police, verbally arguing loud at airports, paige was suspended
for going against the wellness policy, literally the list goes on and on for how much trouble
Paige and Alberto found themselves in during that year
Reports in 2016 claimed that WWE was concerned for the young 24 year old, Paige, at the time
There were so many rumors going around that many people believed Alberto was a bad influence
for Paige and could likely get her WWE career off track
That’s reportedly why we saw WWE draft Alberto and Paige to separate brands.
It seemed to be an attempt to split them up for Paige’s sake and her safety
But as expected, that didn’t help much and Paige and Alberto pretty much when off the
rails
We heard the rumors for years, but now Paige is finally opening up and speaking publicly
about everything that happened that year
During a recent appearance on GAW TV, Paige commented on the situation:
"I've never spoken about it before, whether podcasts or interviews, I always stayed away.
But now it's completely out there.
I'm like, 'why am I shying away from this?
Why am I not brave enough to talk about it?'"
Paige mentioned how she’ll never call him by name again.
Alberto is currently facing some criminal charges in the state of Texas and Paige also
commented on that situation as well and had this to say about it:
“He needs whatever is happening to him.
Karma is a real thing”
Paige’s comments got back to Alberto and he responded to Paige via TMZ Sports and had
this claim to make:
"It was the other way around.
I have the evidence.
Not just words."
he's considering taking legal action against Paige for defamation and asked her “why
would you hurt me in a moment like this?”
So not a lot has changed since 2016, the situation here between the two of them is still very
messy, but at least they have gone their separate ways and Paige seems a million times more
happy with where’s she at right now compared to back then, so that’s another great thing
as well

Liv Morgan’s current status on Smackdown was recently brought up in the news after
her tag team partner, Ruby Riott, had a qualifying match for survivor series and Liv was no where
in sight
Liv didn’t appear at ringside to manage Ruby and obviously didn’t take part in her
own qualifying match, so that caught everyone’s attention
Was something wrong?
Was she sick?
Well reports claim that Liv Morgan is perfectly fine and was backstage at Smackdown, she simply
wasn’t used on the show
So at least she’s perfectly okay.
Liv and Ruby did celebrate Ruby’s win on twitter and they teased the idea that liv
still had time to qualify for Team Smackdown at Survivor Series, so we’ll have to see
if Liv Morgan will have a chance to qualify in the coming weeks

Paul Heyman receives new WWE role.
Paul Heyman currently serves as the special counsel for Roman Reigns and does a phenomenal
job in his role, but it seems like Heyman has just locked up a new WWE gig
Talking Smack was a huge hit show a few years ago and WWE has just brought it back with
the hosts originally set to be Kayla Braxton and Xavier Woods
Xavier Woods unfortunately had to leave the show since he was drafted to Raw, so Kayla
has been on the hunt for a new co-host
WWE experimented with a few different WWE personalities to be the co-host with Kayla
Braxton and it looks like they finally found someone.
That someone being Paul Heyman
Paul Heyman was recently the guest co-host for Talking Smack and the way he spoke, it
seemed like he was implying that he’ll be sticking around as the co-host for more than
just this week
Heyman had this to say about the new role:
“Ladies and gentleman, my name is Paul Heyman and I serve as special counsel to the reigning,
defending, undisputed WWE Universal Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns.
And so someone can keep Kayla on the straight and narrow, I now serve the public as your
co-host of Talking Smack because Kayla, from what I can see has been talking smack just
a little too much lately.”
So great typical great words from Paul Heyman, but the way he said “I now serve the public
as your co-host of talking smack...” made everyone wonder if he’ll be sticking around
as a permanent part of the show
Kayla already does a phenomenal job and if you permanently add Paul Heyman to the show
as well then maybe you really can create something as special as the original Talking Smack from
several years ago

Lastly, Carmella finally made her long awaited return this week to WWE programming
Carmella was previously gone from WWE television since May, so nearly a 6 month absence has
led up to all this
Carmella recently returned rocking a whole new bright red attire and laid out Sasha Banks
The message there is quite simple.
What better way to make a statement and say that you’re back than taking out the head
of the women’s division
Some people are wondering if this means Carmella will be inserted into a title feud with Sasha
Banks right away
Things still aren’t as clear when it comes to that.
Maybe it was just Carmella making a statement or maybe it was the first part of her story
with Sasha Banks
I honestly don’t think it would be smart to throw Carmella right into the title picture
because obviously Carmella isn’t going to defeat Sasha Banks for the title
Then again it is WWE, and you never know, but in a normal circumstance, Carmella probably
wouldn’t be successful in defeating Sasha for the title
So if you put Carmella right into the title picture with Sasha Banks, Carmella is probably
exciting their feud with a few losses and then where do you really take her from there?
That’s why I think it would be smart to start things off with maybe little feuds like
Carmella vs Bianca Belair and let Carmella build up this huge stack of wins before she
challenges for the title, but we’ll have to see how that plays out
Carmella had this to say about her return during Talking Smack:
“That wasn't me.
That was not me.
That was what everyone out there wanted me to be.
And I was sick of it.
I am back to what I should be doing and I should be on top.
And I'm going to do whatever it takes to be on top.
That's exactly what I did tonight.
And pretty soon the entire WWE universe, the entire world is going to know exactly why
I am untouchable”
