Stevie Richards Says WWE Has Become ‘Soulless’ Under TKO
Stevie Richards used the 100th episode of his show to crown a non-WWE match the best of the year and to lay…
The biggest story rattling through wrestling Twitter this weekend isn’t a title change or a contract signing — it’s a literal fire at WWE headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut. A flag reportedly broke free from the building in high winds Saturday night, struck a power line, and caught fire in what is genuinely the most on-brand chaotic thing that could happen to a company that once had a volcano on pay-per-view. Nobody was hurt, the building is fine, and somewhere Vince McMahon’s portrait probably didn’t even flinch — but the imagery of flames outside WWE HQ is going to fuel hot takes for at least a week.
Fire Breaks Out At WWE Headquarters After Flag Strikes Power Line
Look, we’re not saying it’s a sign, but if you were pitching this as a wrestling angle, creative would reject it for being too on the nose. Windy conditions in Stamford caused the flag to detach and connect with a power line, producing actual fire outside the corporate home of sports entertainment. Everybody is safe, the building is intact, and honestly the only real victim here is whoever has to explain this one to the insurance company.
Myla Grace Doesn’t Have A Non-Compete Following TNA Release
Myla Grace requested her TNA release earlier this week and now it’s confirmed she’s walking out the door with zero non-compete restrictions attached — meaning she can sign literally anywhere starting immediately. That’s a genuinely clean exit and puts every promotion on notice that a talented young woman is on the market right now. Given the AEW signing rumour floating around this weekend (more on that below), the timing is interesting to say the least.
Bianca Belair Reveals Major Mental Struggles During Pregnancy
Bianca Belair opened up on Instagram about dealing with “pregnancy brain” and the significant mental toll the experience has been taking on her memory and day-to-day functioning. It takes genuine courage to speak publicly about mental health struggles, especially when you’re one of the biggest stars in your industry and the audience’s expectations don’t pause for real life. We’re rooting for Bianca, full stop — she’s been one of the best things about WWE for years and she’ll come back when she’s ready and not a moment before.
WWE Officials Don’t See Ilja Dragunov As A Top Superstar
According to reports, WWE higher-ups view Ilja Dragunov as an interchangeable mid-card talent rather than a main event player — and that assessment is, respectfully, baffling. This is a man who had one of the greatest NXT Championship runs in recent memory, a former United States Champion, and someone who can make any opponent look like a million dollars on any given night. If the company can’t figure out what to do with Ilja Dragunov on the main roster, that’s a booking failure, not a talent one.
Pro Wrestling NOAH Neo Global Tag League 2026: Day 9 Results – June 6th
NOAH’s Neo Global Tag League rolled into Yokote, Akita for Day 9 with Daiki Odashima picking up a win over Hiroto Tsuruya among the night’s results. The Tag League format continues to be one of the most reliable structures in Japanese wrestling for building meaningful momentum and fresh matchups across a roster. If you haven’t been keeping up with Wrestle Universe this summer, you’re genuinely leaving quality wrestling on the table.
Solo Sikoa’s Likeness Seemingly Stolen By Upcoming Wrestling Video Game
An upcoming indie title called Wrestling Revolution is raising eyebrows by featuring what appears to be Solo Sikoa’s likeness without any licensing deal in place — which is both legally dicey and creatively lazy in equal measure. WWE guards its intellectual property like Sami Zayn guards kayfabe, so it’ll be fascinating to see how quickly the lawyers in Stamford move on this one. Using a recognisable superstar’s face to sell your game without permission isn’t edgy or clever; it’s just a cease and desist waiting to happen.
Sol Ruca To Defend WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship Against Lyra Valkyria On 6/8 WWE RAW
Monday’s RAW is quietly shaping up to be a very solid television show — Sol Ruca defending the Women’s Intercontinental Championship against Lyra Valkyria is exactly the kind of match that division needs right now, and you’ve also got Penta defending the men’s IC title against Rey Mysterio on the same card. Two Intercontinental Championship matches on one episode of RAW is a good night for anyone who actually cares about mid-card titles meaning something. Both matches have real finish ambiguity, which is more than you can say for a lot of weekly TV bouts.
GUNTHER Explains Why He Doesn’t Want To Face Oba Femi Yet
GUNTHER appeared on the No-Contest Wrestling podcast and essentially confirmed what the smart money already suspected — he’s aware of Oba Femi, respects the trajectory, but wants that match to happen at the right time rather than just whenever the calendar demands it. That’s a level of long-term thinking about his own career that is genuinely refreshing in an era where dream matches get burned on free TV without ceremony. When GUNTHER versus Oba Femi eventually happens, if it’s protected properly, it could be a legitimate crossover moment.
AEW Reportedly Set To Sign ‘Nationally Televised Talent’ This Summer
Fightful Select dropped the tantalising report that AEW will be adding nationally televised talent to its roster this summer, with zero additional details to chew on — the wrestling equivalent of someone texting “we need to talk” and then going offline. The timing, combined with Myla Grace’s clean TNA exit and a wider sense that several contracts across the industry are in flux, makes this one genuinely worth watching. AEW has the roster depth right now; what it needs is the right additions rather than just more names, so hopefully Tony Khan’s cheque book is being pointed carefully.
CMLL Sabados De Coliseo Results – June 6th, 2026
CMLL ran their weekly Sabados De Coliseo card at Arena Coliseo in Mexico City with Kamelot and Rey Espartano featuring among the evening’s action. The lucha libre institution continues to quietly put on consistent weekly television that rewards the faithful who tune in on the Members Only YouTube channel. There’s something grounding about CMLL doing its thing week after week regardless of what drama is swirling elsewhere in the wrestling world.
🎤 The WAW Take
That’s your Sunday wrapped — from actual flames in Stamford to metaphorical ones burning under some questionable creative decisions, it’s been a characteristically unhinged week in this industry we all love. Tune into RAW tomorrow night because two IC title matches on free TV is not something you ignore. We’ll be back with the fallout — stay smart out there.
