Here's your wrestling news for August 26th, 2022.
And we're kicking off today with AEW as a lot has been said
about wrestlers being unhappy with Miro, andrade el idolo liking
tweets, suggesting they'd be better in WWE with that said it's
not just the men of AEW who are experiencing drama backstage,
but there is some genuine beef between some of AEW's top.
A new report from voices of wrestlings Joe Lanza states,
that there is very real hatred between thunder, Rosa
and Brit baker who have been mortal enemies for years.
Bakker.
Isn't the only one who has had an issue with Rosa
though, as the report adds that after the champ broke
Jamie hater's nose during their match at battle of the
belts, three thunder Rosa was left fearing for her life.
Rosa was scared that Jamie hater was going to beat
the living shit out of her and was hiding in a bath.
Later on fight fulls will Washington corroborated land's
reports saying he's heard the same from his sources.
Lanza also suggested that thunder Rosa's injury announcement
during this week's dynamite may not be real, but rather
that AEW management just want her away while things cool
off whatever the case, an interim AEW women's world champion
will be crowned all out as either baker hater Keda or Tony
storm will follow on from Rosa's controversial title reign.
No matter who's crown champion it all out.
They won't be facing thunder Rosa for quite some time.
And we won't be hearing from the AEW women's world
champion, either in a tweet, it was confirmed that thunder
Rosa is off social media and that her agent, Tony St.
Allen will be operating her Twitter for the time being Alan.
Didn't explain why it's under Rosa is off though.
We imagine seeing reports of her having heat
backstage has been a factor in her decision.
Social media can often be a great place for wrestlers to
interact with fans, but it can also be a very toxic place too.
And for now Rosa's focus is on getting healed up and back
in the ring yesterday, we reported on Eddie Kingston,
who was recently suspended from AEW for some comments.
The company disapproved of for the past few weeks, Kingston
has been suspended due to something that was said to Sam guara.
And now the mad king has spoken again
though this time in a much softer tone.
When PW insider reached out to Kingston over what
was reported to have been said, the AEW star admitted
that he was at fault and did not defend his comments.
I was wrong for being unprofessional.
That is the blind fact.
He did what he did and the public can judge that.
But I know for a fact I was wrong.
It's been confirmed that Kingston was enraged by
a comment during a promo that was ultimately cut
in which Guevara called him a fat piece of shit.
Now Kingston is wanting to put this whole sorted
affair behind him and move on with his AEW career.
But with so many reports about what happened,
that may be difficult for the mad king Kingston.
Isn't the only one to speak out about the matter as Sammy
Guevara has also given his interpretation of events when asked
by fight for Guevara explained how the reports of him calling
Kingston fat and said that well, it works for his character.
It's something he fundamentally disagrees with.
I see what people say online about Eddie and
his appearance, which anyone who legitimately
shames Eddie for how he looks could go to hell.
It's the same people who shame me for being too small.
Guevara didn't think much of the line during the promo,
as he explained that he doesn't think Kingston is fat,
but his heel character does, but things took a turn.
Once he walked through the curtain, Eddie's flipping
out yelling, you can't call me fat over and over.
As I'm trying to walk down the stairs in gorilla making a big.
People get in between us.
Eddie tries to pie face me, and he more like touches my face.
It was weird in the end, Guevara, chalked it up to Kingston,
having anger management issues, adding that the mad king
should have spoken with him before the promo to explain
what should and shouldn't be said while a segment confirming
their match at all out was taped for this week's dynamite.
It was ultimately removed from the show.
So it remains unclear whether the match that
caused all this controversy even happens at.
Earlier this year, it was reported that Monday night raw
would be moving to ATV 14 rating after years of being PG.
But those reports were a little hasty.
Instead it later came out that WWE had been considering the
move, which was expected to happen within a couple of months.
But now that doesn't look to be happening either
according to Brad, she triple H announced during a
company call that the WWE is not moving to TV 14 for
their shows, or at least it's not happening anytime soon.
Fans were certainly excited when news of the TV 14 rating broke,
but it was later clarified that little would change other than some
of the language used those clamoring for a return of the attitude
era, would've been disappointed as WWE had no plan on treating
their female talents as nothing but eye candy under the new rating.
And it was doubtful.
They'd bring back blood.
Ultimately WWE will do what they feel is best for the company.
And right now what's best for WWE is sticking to their PG rating.
One name fans can see each week on RA is Bianca Bellaire
who has become the face of WWE's women's division winning
back to back WrestleMania and multiple championships.
Bellaire is a force to be reckoned with in the ring and
is now taking her talents to a bigger audience variety.
We're the first to break the news that Belleair has signed with
WME talent agency, a Hollywood firm that strived to develop her
in a variety of fields, including marketing, acting, and podcast.
There's no word yet on whether any offers have been made to EST
of WWE, but we have to imagine that companies will be wanting
to work with WWE's arguable biggest female superstar today.
Of course, if be air's prospects outside of WWE, get
bigger that'll mean she'll have less time for her role
within the Stephanie McMohan, Nick Khan ran company.
So we'll just have to see what WWE
does with their raw women's champion.
More from AEW as this week's dynamite saw John Moxley
squash CM punk to become the AEW undisputed world champion.
A result.
Fans did not see coming originally.
The title unification match had been booked for all out before
being moved to dynamite, which is left next week's pay view without
a main event on wrestling, observer, radio, Dave Meltzer addressed
the main event of all out and what it'll be it's punk and Moxley.
I don't know if they're gonna add steps
or whatever, but that's the main event.
It's unclear how AEW will put punk back in the title
picture, especially after he not only lost, but lost so
decisively to the former shield member while AEW has plenty
of talented wrestlers and the latest ranking show hangman,
Adam Page powerhouse, Hobbs, Jay lethal, Brian Danielson
and Darby Allen all in line for a title opportunity.
It'll be punk Boxley, too.
It all out.
Despite what happened on this week's dynam.
Earlier this year, the, my stereos feud with the MIZ culminating
in a match WrestleMania that also featured Logan Paul.
And now this feud is back, but not on WWE TV.
Instead, the mys will go head to head against the miss' family during
an upcoming celebrity edition of family feud with Steve Harvey,
given that the MI was abducted by Dexter Loomis on this week's
raw appearing on family feud will be a breeze for the Alister who
looks to get the win over Ray again, this time outside of the ring.
And we're ending today with Vince McMohan.
As the past two months have been a monumental shift for the former
chairman who recently celebrated his birthday TMZs photographers in
New York city caught a few snaps of McMohan who had his birthday with
fellow WWE stars, John Cena and Brock Lessner SmackDown commentator.
Pat McAfee was also on hand for the party as was an
unidentified woman who remained close to McMohan.
Not long after reports of McMahon's alleged
relationships with female employees.
It was claimed that the former chairman and his
wife, Linda were no longer living together, despite
technically still being married to one another.
The former chairman's life has been
rocked over the past couple of months.
And with him still under investigation, by WWE's board of directors,
we doubt that this week's party was the happiest of birthdays.
Vincent Kennedy McMohan.
