  • WWE Monday Night Raw Results- May 11th, 2026

    WWE Monday Night Raw Results- May 11th, 2026

    Tonight’s episode of Raw live from Knoxville, the women’s tag team champions will address their future challengers in the judgement day’s Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez, Iyo Sky takes on Sol Ruca, an Oba Femi open challenge, and the Roman Reign’s acknowledgement ceremony.

    Segments

    The Vision accompanied by Paul Hayman opened the show after a vingette showed Adam Pierce talking to Roman Reigns who was just arriving to tonight’s show. The Vision were met in the ring by the Street Profits and then serenaded by Joe Hendry with his “Can We Fire Logan Paul” song. This led to a trios match and some “help” from Seth Rollins.

    Next segment shows us the Original El Grande Americano and Bruto and Julio (the hermanos americanos) speaking to Adam Pierce who were interrupted by Dirty Dom and Liv Morgan. The AAA mega campionship was announced to be on the line tonight against the Original El Grande Americano, which is the first time this title would be defended on Raw.

    Penta makes his appearance and after a commercial break calls out All Ego Ethan Page stating that he is not afraid to defense his intercontential championship. Ethan Page states that he isn’t wanting to have that shot tonight but to have it in two weeks at Saturday Night Main Event. Penta looks like he is ready to accept, however, they were both interrupted by Rusev and Je’von Evans, who came out “whoaing” like it was an episode of South Park. The segment ends with a fight and both Evans and Penta doing Penta’s signature walk in the middle of the ring and a match against Rusev.

     

    Next, we see Iyo Sky warming up when she is met by Asuka, who grabs her in a deep embrace. Asuka tells her that she is glad it was her that won the match and how proud she is of her. Iyo tells her goodbye to which Asuka says “see you later” as they hug again. The segment ends with Asuka leaving the building with her luggage.

    Brie Bella and Paige enter the arena dressed in street clothes. The announcers say that they have competitors coming at them from everywhere and will address the locker room in this segment. They say that they were called to come to Raw by Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez. Roxanne Perez remarks how she loved watching them as a kid when they were “young and relevant.” She also states how mad she is at Brie for setting the bar so low for her. Raquel verbally goes after Paige, which leads to a brawl. Liv Morgan joins her judgement day stablemates in decimating Brie and Paige.

    The next segment, we see the Street Profits about to be interviewed when they were joined by Seth Rollins. Ford reminds Seth that it is said that he cannot be trusted. He leaves as the words sink in with Dawkins and Seth seems to take in what was said.

    Iyo is then seen congratulating Sol Ruca on a good match. She states that she is the future and that they will fight again. Then enters Becky Lynch who mocks Sol for her loss.

    Oba Femi comes to the ring for his open challenge. Adam Pierce states that there is no challenger that wanted to take his open challenge. He then goes backstage and takes Humberto and Angel Garza to the ring, involuntarily to make this open challenge also a handicapped match.

    Dirty Dom starts to make his way to the ring through the backstage with JD McDonough. Finn Balor comes out of nowhere to take out JD and Drity Dom is forced to go to the ring without his backup.

    Jacky stops The Vision for an interview. Logan Paul threatens to vincent van goughing himself by stabbing himself in the ears if Joe Hendry sings his song again. They were asked how they would going to prepare for their title defense against the Street Profits in two weeks and Austin Theory offers Jacky a ride to speak about it. She refuses and they leave in their car.

    Lastly, the segment most have probably been waiting for…the Roman Reigns acknowledgement ceremony. Roman enters flanked by his cousin, Jimmy Uso. Jey is then seen backstage with Jacob Fatu. He says that his cousin Jacob needs to be smart. This leads to Jey being laid out by Jacob prior to him stating he is not going not acknowledge Roman and that the acknowledgement needs to be beaten out of him. He lays out Jimmy on the way to the ring and stares Roman in the eyes from the apron before the two start to fight. Fatu uses the Tonga Death Grip a few times including using it to put the OTC through the announce desk. The show ends with Fatu licking the championship belt and holding it high in the center of the ring and then spearing Roman as he tries to get up from the announce desk. Will this leave Jacob Fatu out of a job? Time will tell.

  • Should WWE Wrestlers Unionize? | Column

    Should WWE Wrestlers Unionize? | Column

    As WWE continues to grow into a global powerhouse, the conversation around how its talent is classified and treated is becoming harder to ignore. Record gates, but then talent asked to take larger than life pay cuts—really? The company is thriving financially, driven by media rights deals, premium live events and international expansion. Yet the structure surrounding its performers has remained largely unchanged for decades.

    WWE talent are labeled as independent contractors, but their day-to-day reality tells a different story. Wrestlers operate on company schedules, follow creative direction and often face restrictions on outside opportunities. WWE is in control. That level of control more closely resembles traditional employment, but without the same protections. It is a contradiction that has lingered over the industry for years, and one that feels increasingly outdated in a modern corporate landscape.

    Under TKO Group Holdings, WWE has become even more aligned with big business practices. The company is now part of a larger publicly traded entity with clear financial expectations. That shift has brought stability and growth, but it has also highlighted the imbalance between ownership and talent. In most major industries, that kind of imbalance is addressed through collective bargaining. In wrestling, it still is not.

    The physical demands of the profession make the issue much more urgent. Professional wrestlers combine athletic performance with live entertainment, often working through injuries while maintaining a relentless travel schedule. The work load has lessened up, sure, but the risk is still there. Unlike athletes in the NFL or NBA, WWE performers do not have a union to negotiate standardized healthcare, pensions or long-term support. Each contract is handled individually, which limits leverage and creates inconsistency across the roster.

    Unionization would provide a framework for addressing those concerns. It could establish baseline protections such as injury protocols, legitimate minimum contract standards and clearer guidelines around scheduling.  It would also give talent a collective voice when it comes to working conditions and compensation. For an industry built on individual stardom, that kind of unity has always been difficult to achieve, but it may now be necessary.

    Past attempts to organize have not succeeded. The most well-known effort came from Jesse Ventura in the 1980s, when he pushed for a union among WWE talent. The idea never gained enough traction, reportedly due to internal resistance and fear of retaliation. Thanks, Hulkster! That moment has become part of wrestling lore, often cited as a missed opportunity for long-term change. Each year that passes feels like the chance of unionization is impossible.

    The environment today is different. Wrestlers are more aware of their value, both as performers and as brands. Social media has given them direct access to fans and a platform to speak openly about their experiences. There is also more competition in the industry, with promotions like All Elite Wrestling offering alternative paths for top talent. That competition may not be enough to shift the balance of power on its own, but it does create leverage that did not exist in previous eras. Leverage is key.

    Critics of unionization often point to the unique nature of professional wrestling. They argue that adding structure could limit creative flexibility or slow down decision-making. Wrestling thrives on spontaneity, and the ability to adjust storylines quickly is part of its appeal. Those concerns are valid, but they are not unique to wrestling. Other major sports leagues operate under union agreements while still producing compelling, unpredictable content.

    The larger issue is sustainability. As WWE continues to expand, the expectations placed on its performers are only increasing. Without a system that provides consistent protections, the gap between the company’s success and the talent’s security will continue to grow. Unionization would not eliminate every challenge, but it would create a foundation for addressing them in a more balanced way. You can’t have futuristic and record breaking numbers, but the treatment of workers is similar to those from the 80’s. It’s outdated.

    For now, the idea remains more discussion than reality. Organizing a roster of independent-minded performers is no small task, and the risks are real. Most talent are afraid to speak out, due to fear of being blackballed. Those are real things.  But as the industry evolves, so does the conversation. WWE has never been bigger. The question is whether its talent will remain on the outside of that growth, or finally come together to claim a voice within it.

  • Logan Paul Reveals His Workout Routine Following WWE RAW Appearance

    Logan Paul Reveals His Workout Routine Following WWE RAW Appearance

    You can say a lot of bad things about Logan Paul, but you cannot deny the fact that he is in tip-top shape. Currently one half of the WWE Tag Team Champions, Logan Paul made an appearance on WWE RAW this past Monday, and fan took notice of something.

    Logan Paul is jacked. Having Austin Theory and Bron Breakker by his side sure doesn’t hurt, as they’d be the perfect motivation for an insane physique. But, one fan took notice and posted in X, saying they needed to know Logan’s workout routine.

    Logan responded with a simple, but apparently effective way to look like him, and it all includes just body weight. Logan Paul sited 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups and of course, a PRIME protein shake.

    https://x.com/loganpaul/status/2052055000352747822?s=46

    While of course Logan is plugging his own brand, protein, push-ups, sit-ups. That’s the way to go!

  • Chelsea Green Provides Update On Recent Heart Surgery

    Chelsea Green Provides Update On Recent Heart Surgery

    Chelsea Green recently went in for surgery after the doctors caught her SVT after dealing with it for 10 years. SVT is short for Supraventricular tachycardia which is a condition causing a suddenly rapid heart rate (often >100–200+ bpm) due to malfunctioning electrical signals in the heart’s upper chambers.

    Chelsea revealed that during WrestleMania weekend, an episode pushed her resting heart rate to 228 for almost 15 minutes. Yesterday, she was worked on for three hours and luckily, she noted that it was minimally invasive she I’ll be back to work very soon.

    We wish Chelsea Green the best in her recoveries and cannot wait to see her back on television and in the clear!

  • Joe Hendry Releases Music Video For “Can We Fire Logan Paul?”

    Joe Hendry Releases Music Video For “Can We Fire Logan Paul?”

    Joe Hendry is really digging the knife deep into the back of Logan Paul. Two weeks ago, Joe Hendry debuted on Monday Night RAW to perform a new song titled “Can we fire Logan Paul?”.

    Obviously, this just pissed Logan off and started a brawl. Then this past Monday, Joe did it again, only furthering Logan’s anger. At this point, Joe Hendry is just trolling hard because he’s now released a music video for the song, and even has a cameo with Adam Pearce!

    https://x.com/joehendry/status/2051682203260620809?s=46

    Logan isn’t going to be happy with this one!

  • Top 10 WWE What If Moments That Changed Everything

    Top 10 WWE What If Moments That Changed Everything

    We all know professional wrestling is scripted. But its history is shaped by very real decisions, injuries and moments that cannot be undone. The bookers don’t have a crystal ball. One wrong booking call or unexpected turn can ripple across years of storytelling and change how fans remember an entire era. WWE, more than any company, has built its legacy on these turning points. Looking back, it is hard not to wonder how different things might feel today if even one of these moments had gone the other way.

    10. What if Nexus actually beat John Cena at SummerSlam 2010?

    Nexus arrived as a fresh concept, but their loss to John Cena at Summer Slam 2010 cooled them off almost immediately. A victory could have established Wade Barrett as a defining villain of the era and given WWE a new wave of credible stars.

    9. What if CM Punk never left in 2014?

    CM Punk walked out in January 2014, just after the Royal Rumble, while still one of WWE’s most authentic voices. If he had stayed, WWE might have handled rising fan frustration in the mid-2010s differently and leaned more into the kind of storytelling audiences were demanding. Also, this would have a butterfly effect on All Elite Wrestling as well. I personally think he would have made the jump in 2019 out of frustration.

    8. What if The Streak never ended at WrestleMania 30?

    The decision for Brock Lesnar to defeat The Undertaker at WrestleMania 30 remains one of the most shocking calls in company history. Protecting The Streak could have preserved a once-in-a-lifetime attraction and saved that moment for a younger star who needed it more. Did Brock need it? Absolutely not. Would a Bray Wyatt victory meant more? Without a doubt.

    7. What if WCW bought WWE in 2001 instead?

    I think about this very often. When WWE purchased World Championship Wrestling March 2001, it ended the Monday Night Wars. If the outcome had been reversed, the industry might have developed into a more competitive landscape instead of one company dominating for decades. Until 2019, WWE was an absolute monopoly. It is still most lucrative promotion, but with AEW, there is now a legit competitor and alternative. If WCW won, there would be no AEW, or even TNA.

    6. What if Stone Cold never turned heel at WrestleMania X-Seven?

    Stone Cold Steve Austin aligned with Vince McMahon at WrestleMania X-7 in April 2001, a move that clashed with fan expectations. Keeping Austin as a rebellious hero might have extended the peak of the Attitude Era and maintained stronger audience momentum.

    5. What if John Cena turned heel during his peak years?

    Between 2011 and 2013, fans loudly pushed for John Cena to turn heel. Pulling the trigger then could have refreshed his character and dramatically shifted WWE storytelling during a transitional era. We also would not have gotten the god awful heel run that was rushed during his retirement run in 2025.

    4. What if Shawn Michaels never had to step away in 1998?

    A serious back injury forced Shawn Michaels out after WrestleMania XIV in March 1998, sidelining him for four years. A healthy Michaels during that stretch could have produced major rivalries with The Rock and Austin, reshaping key Attitude Era storylines. Can you imagine four more years of prime HBK? Imagine Roman Reigns being gone for FOUR years.

    3. What if Roman Reigns was accepted as a babyface from the start?

    After The Shield split in 2014, Roman Reigns was quickly positioned as WWE’s next top star. He was shoved down fans throats at any given opportunity. Early fan acceptance might have avoided years of uneven booking and changed how WWE built its main event scene. Do we get a Tribal Chief? I don’t think so. Do we get a four year title run? Nope. Does Cody Rhodes finish his story? Absolutely not.

    2. What if Bret Hart never left WWE in 1997?

    The Montreal Screwjob at Survivor Series 1997 forced Bret Hart out under controversial circumstances. Without it, the rise of the Mr. McMahon character and its rivalry with Austin may have unfolded very differently. The Attitude Era landscape would look MUCH different.

    1. What if Owen Hart never died in 1999?

    The tragedy at Over the Edge 1999 cut short the life and career of Owen Hart. His continued presence could have elevated an already stacked roster and further strengthened the Hart family’s place in wrestling history. To the fans of this generation who witnessed, or were just around to take this in at home, it will forever leave a black mark on WWE’s legacy. This isn’t about accolades and titles, it is about a father and husband that gave his life to do what he loved, and to entertain the fans. Children lost their father, a wife lost her soulmate, and the world lost a great man. Never forget Owen Hart.
