Brooke Hogan Rips CWPD Over Hulk Hogan’s Death Investigation – ‘Inconsistencies From The Beginning’
Brooke Hogan has spoken out against the way the Clearwater Police Department investigated the death of her father, WWE Hall of Famer…
The biggest talking point coming out of Saturday Night’s Main Event XLIV isn’t a championship change or a shocking return — it’s a controversial finish that has the internet doing what the internet does best: losing its collective mind. Sol Ruca defeating Becky Lynch is, on paper, exactly the kind of star-making moment WWE should be engineering in 2026. But when the finish lands wrong and the match length draws more heat than the result itself, you’ve got a booking problem wrapped inside a presentation problem, and no amount of social media spin fixes that. WWE had the right idea and fumbled the execution, which, honestly, is a sentence we’ve typed before.
Fans Furious Over Becky Lynch vs. Sol Ruca’s Controversial Finish at Saturday Night’s Main Event
The backlash here is real and it’s worth taking seriously, not because fans are wrong to want Sol Ruca elevated, but because the manner in which it happened apparently left people cold. A short match with a finish that felt unsatisfying is the worst possible way to introduce a new top-tier threat, especially when the opponent is one of WWE’s most beloved figures. You can push someone to the moon — just don’t do it with a slingshot that snaps.
Becky Lynch Reacts to Her Defeat to Sol Ruca at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event XLIV
Credit where it’s due: Becky Lynch doing the gracious, professional reaction online is exactly what you want from a veteran in this situation, and it matters more than people give it credit for. The Man putting Sol Ruca over in the aftermath — whether kayfabe or not — helps smooth the rough edges left by whatever finish caused the uproar. Lynch has always understood the long game, and she’s playing it here.
Ethan Page Addresses Loss To Penta At WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event: ‘The Intercontinental Championship Finally Got The Spotlight It Deserved’
Ethan Page saying the quiet part loud is very on-brand, and honestly, he’s not wrong — the Intercontinental title has deserved this kind of Saturday night real estate for years. Penta as IC Champion getting a proper showcase at a major event is the kind of booking decision you want to applaud, and Page framing his own loss as a service to the title’s prestige is a genuinely clever way to handle it. All Elite, All Ego, apparently All Class.
411’s AEW Double or Nothing 2026 Preview
Double or Nothing is tonight, and Okada versus Takeshita is the kind of match that makes you feel genuinely lucky to be a wrestling fan right now — two generational workers at the peak of their craft on the biggest AEW stage of the spring. The card around it sounds stacked enough that if AEW delivers the in-ring quality they’re capable of, this could be the show that reminds the broader audience exactly why this company exists. No pressure, Jacksonville.
AEW’s MJF Isn’t Surprised By Danhausen’s WWE Success: He ‘Pulls People In’
MJF complimenting someone is rare enough to be newsworthy on its own, but the fact that he’s right makes it even better — Danhausen has a gravitational pull that transcends the usual rules about what gets over on a national stage. The Very Evil, Very Tall one found his footing in WWE in a way that surprised some but probably shouldn’t have, and hearing MJF acknowledge it carries genuine weight. Respect from the Salt of the Earth still tastes like a backhanded compliment, but we’ll take it.
JBL Threatens Lawsuit After Rey Mysterio Becomes AAA’s General Manager
This is so perfectly JBL that it almost feels scripted — threatening to sue over a General Manager position with David Otunga on retainer is the exact flavor of unhinged corporate heel energy that makes wrestling great. Rey Mysterio as AAA GM is a genuinely inspired piece of casting, someone who embodies the spirit of Lucha Libre at the highest level now steering the ship. JBL’s litigious meltdown is the cherry on top.
AAA Noches de Los Grandes Will Be Two-Week Event, Six-Woman Tag Set For June 6th
AAA expanding Noches de Los Grandes into a two-week event is smart territory-building for what WWE has been cultivating with the Lucha Libre brand on FOX. More airtime means more opportunity to introduce casual viewers to talent they’d otherwise never discover, and a six-woman tag on the second night gives that show an immediate hook. The model is working — lean into it.
AAA Noche de Los Grandes Lineup for Expanded Two-Week Event
The full lineup being revealed gives us a proper look at how AAA is structuring this thing, and spreading the card intelligently across two weeks rather than just padding one show is encouraging creative discipline. WWE’s stewardship of the AAA brand has been a quiet success story that doesn’t get enough column inches, and events like this are why. Keep an eye on this one.
Lineups for AAA Noche de Los Grandes Week I & II
With both nights now taking shape, fans have enough to get genuinely excited about heading into the end of May and start of June. The expanded format follows a presentation framework AAA has used before, so the production should feel coherent rather than cobbled together. May 30th can’t come fast enough for Lucha fans who’ve been patient with this brand’s slow burn.
Bray Wyatt’s Family Pays Tribute On Late Wrestler’s Birthday
Yesterday would have been Windham Rotunda’s 39th birthday, and JoJo Offerman and Mika Rotunda taking a moment to mark it publicly is a reminder that grief doesn’t follow a calendar or a news cycle. The hole Bray Wyatt left in this industry — creatively, emotionally — remains genuinely unfillable, and the tributes from those who loved him most carry a weight that no amount of in-ring spectacle can touch. We remember him.
🎤 The WAW Take

Double or Nothing is tonight, so if you’re not already settled in with your snacks and your hot takes pre-loaded, what are you even doing? We’ll see you on the other side of Okada versus Takeshita — assuming our hearts survive it.
