Bianca Censori was an entirely different person before meeting Kanye and it has left everyone wondering, did the change come after the relationship? TMZ has released new pictures of the celebrity from back in 2021 and she had a totally different look.

Before she was turning heads in sheer tights and headline-making fits, Bianca Censori was rocking a whole different vibe and honestly, it’s kinda wild to look back. In these newly resurfaced 2021 pics, she’s all long brunette hair, natural glam, and chill, model-off-duty energy. Think clean lines, covered up, and effortlessly cool.

Fast forward to now? She’s basically Yeezy’s muse in Nsfw couture, making every sidewalk a viral fashion moment. The glow-up (or switch-up?) is so major, fans can’t stop asking, Is this the same person?

WWE SuperCard is one of the most popular online card games out there right now, especially for wrestling fans. It’s basically a card-battling game where you collect digital cards of WWE Superstars, past, present, and even some Hall of Famers. You’ll find everyone from legends like The Undertaker and Stone Cold to current stars like Roman Reigns and Bianca Belair. But sadly, you can’t play with Brock Lesnar anymore, as he was removed from the game after his alleged involvement in the Janel Grant Lawsuit.

Once you’ve built up your deck, you can throw down in various matches and events. Whether you’re going solo or teaming up with others, there are several different game modes to keep you occupied, from ranked battles to limited-time events that drop exclusive rewards. Your cards go head-to-head based on stats, and you can level them up and craft stronger versions to dominate opponents.

WWE Unreal has unravelled new talking points amongst wrestling enthusiasts. One such development surfaced during the planning of the Women’s Royal Rumble 2025, when Ed Koskey, the Senior Vice President of Creative Writing in the WWE, suggested that Chelsea Green should win the women’s Royal Rumble this year. Fortunately, WWE creative, spearheaded by Triple H, did not pursue this idea altogether for the Rumble this year.

However, his suggestion for how the former Women’s United States Champion could win the Royal Rumble was nothing short of unconventional. He proposed that entrant #29 would cause a double elimination, leaving no one in the ring. As a result, entrant #30, Chelsea Green, would win the match by simply entering as the last remaining competitor.

The revelation unveiled the kind of brainstorming the creative heads of the company perform behind the scenes before Ple events. Additionally, other names were also discussed between the...

“We’re going to lift the curtain. We are going to show you things you’ve never seen in this show,” WWE Hall of Famer and Chief Content Officer Triple H said in announcing its docuseries collaboration with Netflix. The question is, do we really need to see this?

“WWE: Unreal” gives the audience unprecedented access, going backstage with WWE Superstars and staff as they bring the company’s biggest spectacles to life from the Royal Rumble to WrestleMania.

When I was younger, I believed that The Undertaker was a dead man walking, Umaga was a tribal chief and Vince McMahon was an egomaniacal billionaire… Maybe that last one was true. There was a real magic in keeping kayfabe alive as audiences get lost in the compelling storylines that make the matches and rivalries more believable.

The most exciting time of the year is finally here. SummerSlam 2025 promises interesting twists in existing storylines and some emphatic WWE returns, much like its history. While what happens at this year’s SummerSlam remains uncertain, several remarkable returns at SummerSlam have star-studded the event over the years.

SummerSlam remains one of WWE’s biggest premium live events of the year, second only to WrestleMania. Throughout WWE history, it has served as a pivotal stage for major storylines and unforgettable moments. In celebration of this thrilling event, we take a look back at some of the most impactful high-stakes returns by legendary superstars who shocked the WWE universe at SummerSlam.

The WWE universe has tied its allegiance to Cody Rhodes like a Pied Piper. From his silence against The Rock to his friendship with Seth Rollins, there are subtle signs that the American Nightmare will turn heel. Ever since he returned to the WWE, the American Nightmare did everything in his power to become the face of the company, and for many wrestling enthusiasts, he became so. But the hints of his heel turn cannot be denied.

The latest and most obvious one came when he attacked John Cena from behind during the July 18 edition of Friday Night SmackDown this year. Ever since he returned to the WWE ring at WrestleMania 38, virtue was something he had held dear all this while, but that took a back seat ever since that confrontation.

In light of the recent change in his behaviour, here are 5 indications that Cody Rhodes will sooner or later turn against the WWE universe.

The multi-million-dollar WWE has been premised on solid storytelling over the years. Whether it has been the iconic Hulkamania running wild or John Cena conquering the WWE championship for a staggering 17 times, it is what goes on behind the scenes that proves to be the true heartthrob of pro-wrestling.

It isn’t just storytelling, however, that fuels the company. From arranging a set to the pyro, from the crowd management to the celebrity hosting, it is all part and parcel of the company. Over the years, there have been many documentaries narrating the stories of the superstars on the screen but for the first time, WWE has planned to go deeper with their latest documentary all set to drop. WWE Unreal offers a glimpse into the company’s most intimate.

WWE SummerSlam 2025 will be one of the most historic nights for the Stamford-based promotion this year. It will be presented as a two-night event for the first time in over three decades. Moreover, the groundbreaking announcement was made by none other than the popular American rapper Cardi B.

Moreover, she revealed herself to be the official host of SummerSlam 2025. This was a great move by WWE Cco Triple H to bring a top celebrity from the music industry for the show. However, Cardi B has been missing in action with SummerSlam right around the corner, leading to concerns regarding her appearance for The Biggest Party of the Summer.

There’s an exciting new WWE show coming to Netflix!

WWE: Unreal debuts on July 29 on the streamer.

Here’s the logline: “For the first time ever, step into the WWE writer’s room and outside the ring with your favorite WWE Superstars, where the drama is just as intense offstage as it is under the spotlight.”

Keep reading to find out more…

Triple H serves as the narrator of the docuseries.

In addition to Triple H, WWE superstars featured in the series include Triple H, Cody Rhodes, John Cena, Rhea Ripley, Cm Punk, Jey Uso, Bianca Belair, Chelsea Green, Charlotte Flair, and Xavier Woods.

Unreal Season 1 includes five 50-minute episodes:

Episode 1, “New Era”

Episode 2, “Push”

Episode 3, “Worth the Wait”

Episode 4, “Heel Turn”

Episode 5, “WrestleMania”

Watch the trailer for WWE: Unreal above, see the first look photos inside, and watch it on Netflix on July 29.

Find out who is considered...

Phil “Cm Punk” Brooks kind of shit the bed in his brief mixed-martial arts stint (0-1-1) between WWE residencies. He’s also infamously (on wrestling blogs, at least) shit the ring during a live TV match.

In the trailer for Netflix’s new and upcoming reality show WWE: Unreal (below), Punk asks fellow WWE Superstar Charlotte Flair if she’s “ever shit” herself in the ring. The answer is a no, but with the quick caveat that if she had, she wouldn’t admit to it. The daughter of the legendary “Nature Boy” Ric Flair “may have peed” herself “a little,” she offered.

Look, you just have to know pro wrestlers.

In addition to those two, WWE: Unreal will feature Triple H, Cody Rhodes, John Cena, Rhea Ripley, Jey Uso, Bianca Belair, Chelsea Green and Xavier Woods. The series has a five-episode season order, with each episode clocking in at 50-minutes long.

Professional wrestlers famously break their bodies doing what they love to entertain the fans. In sports entertainment, wrestling’s rough nature has garnered a bevy of heartbreaking behind-the-scenes stories. But for the superstars, it all seems worth it. Now, you can hear it from the WWE superstars themselves as they tell their stories, which is accompanied by some rare backstage footage. Netflix has just released the trailer for WWE: Unreal. The documentary plays on the reputation of wrestling’s stigma with casual viewers — that it’s faked. However, it still has real-world consequences.

The stars featured in the five-episode documentary will include Triple H, Cody Rhodes, John Cena, Rhea Ripley, Cm Punk, Jey Uso, Bianca Belair, Chelsea Green, Charlotte Flair, and Xavier Woods. The description reads, “For the first time ever, step into the WWE writer’s room and outside the ring with your favorite WWE Superstars, where the drama...

The WWE locker room is unpredictable. One moment you are at the peak of your abilities or an emerging talent destined to become the next big thing, and in the very next moment, you are on the sidelines.

Something of a similar sort occurred with several superstars this year. They had promising careers and great in-ring abilities, but despite that, WWE decided to release them this year.

In light of a successful all-women’s Ple event, WWE Evolution, and the rise of the women’s division in the company, here are 7 female WWE superstars who were released by the company this year, despite their hard work and commitment inside the squared circle.

Bianca Belair has emerged as one of the strongest and most captivating WWE superstars of the modern era. She has lived up to her moniker of being called ‘The Est’ with her impressive stature, athletic background, remarkable tenure and connection with the WWE Universe built over the years.

Like every superstar who broke into the business, Belair also looked up to many top names in the industry to prepare for her own journey. However, she studied one of the top legends specifically on the recommendation of her husband and fellow WWE star, Montez Ford.

Welcome to our WWE Evolution review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Phil and this is the second Evolution PPV/Ple, with a maissive 7(!) year gap between shows! Like the 2018 eiditon, this is a huge night for the women WWE but one that was marred by the focus more on anything But this show in the lead up to the weekend’s events… Seriously, who the hell cares about Goldberg having a retirement match when This show takes place the same weekend?!?!

Match #1: Women’s Intercontinental Championship Triple Threat Match – Becky Lynch def. Bayley and Lyra Valkyria The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

The Women’s Intercontinental Title remains with Becky Lynch after she retained in an incredible Triple Threat Match against Lyra Valkyria and Bayley. The raucous Atlanta crowd roared in approval to begin the bout as all three Superstars looked to emerge victorious in the title fight.

While WWE Evolution featured several nail-biting matches, intense altercations, and power-packed performances for the fans, the premium live event gained significance due to its uniquely historical nature.

Apart from being the only second all-women’s pay-per-view event, it also served as a launching point for several WWE superstars to mark fresh beginnings in the company. In this regard, the Ple event introduced new angles into the already intense scenarios in the women’s division of the company.

Highlighting the unique value of this Ple event, here are the top 5 surprise moments that fans witnessed in WWE Evolution.

Although it wasn’t a surprise until the last moment. But Bianca Belair’s return as the match official for a no-holds-barred match between former best friends Naomi and Jade Cargill was astonishing for the WWE universe.

Not all goodbyes are unfortunate or bad. Some WWE superstars have proved time and again that certain exits are not only reversible, they can also astonish fans and critics alike. These comebacks become a cornerstone in the WWE storylines with the kind of performances fans witness inside the squared circle.

One such superstar who is creating waves of excitement inside the WWE these days is Goldberg. The Icon made a mesmerizing return to the WWE and confronted the World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther, straight away. Goldberg’s return to the WWE is special in many ways. Although this is not the first time the Jackhammer specialist has come back to the WWE ring, it could be his last run as a professional wrestler.

In the light of Goldberg’s high-octane return, here are 10 WWE superstars who returned better than ever after long absences from WWE.

11 years ago, a WWE superstar wore her country’s colors as her wrestling gear. Competing against Summer Rae in the Nxt, WWE’s developmental roster, was Becky Lynch. Few would have known that the Irish superstar would become a dominating force in the company a decade later.

But Becky Lynch has achieved unimaginable success in her 11 years as a WWE superstar. The Man, as she is popularly called in the company, shared the ring with elite talents and achieved astonishing success as a professional wrestler. In light of her remarkable presence in the WWE, here are 11 moments of brilliance from Becky Lynch during her career.

They may be humble people in general, but they fight with all they have. That is how the journey of Japanese wrestlers has been in the WWE. The superstars from the Land of the Rising Sun have proved that time and again that the spirit of wrestling is just as evident there as in the United States.

Japan’s contribution to the WWE is immense. Japanese wrestlers have made a name for themselves amongst the WWE universe for their high-flying skills and unparalleled athleticism. From the early days of the WWE right until the middle of the modern era.

In light of her recent success and the historical relation between the island nation and the WWE, there are 5 greatest Japanese wrestlers in WWE of all time.

There are those WWE superstars who arrive inside the ring as a package.

The WWE universe was waiting for this moment, and it finally arrived. Asuka, the former four-time women’s world champion, returned to the ring and took everyone, including her rivals, by surprise.

The wrestling community witnessed what has been typical for Asuka throughout her career: a win and sheer dominance from the Empress. But more than anything, she managed to put herself right back at the crossroads of a major world title.

The journey for Asuka was not easy. She was forced out of the ring due to a knee injury at Backlash 2024 in Lyon, France. During that match, she and Kairi Sane lost the women’s tag team title to Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill.

A lot has changed in the women’s division of the WWE following her last appearance. Upon her return,...

Even though Nikki Bella’s return was already announced at Money in the Bank 2025, what happened at the subsequent edition of Monday Night Raw was unprecedented. Liv Morgan, an integral member of the Judgement Day faction, unleashed a relentless attack on the former Women’s Champion upon her return. The assault crossed all limits as she dug into Nikki’s recent wounds of divorce from her ex-husband, Artem Chigvinstev.

But Nikki Bella has decided to give it back to Liv Morgan. The former Women’s Champion has decided that she is not going to give in easily to the new generation of wrestlers in the WWE. In a shocking move, Nikki Bella has made her stance clear: it’s either one way or the other within the company—no middle ground.

Nikki Bella announced her next WWE clash in a scathing attack on Liv Morgan Nikki Bella is confronting Liv Morgan at WWE Raw.

In recent days, WWE has been doing an outstanding job with its creative narratives that have elevated its kayfabe world and made the fans sit at the edge of their seats. This notion was evident in June’s exclusive premium live event, Money in the Bank, which delivered the chaos and drama the PPV is renowned for.

The event’s exclusive ladder matches offered a grueling battle for the golden ticket that offers a guaranteed shot at any WWE title at any time and place of their choosing. With Naomi and Seth Rollins winning the matches, fans are excited about how things will unfold for them.

In the meantime, fans were curious to learn what exactly the contents of the Mitb briefcase were. Well, she heard and shared a clip of her briefcase’s contents, and it’s not what we expected.

The long hours of waiting and anticipation have finally come to an end. Asuka, the iconic WWE figure, is making a return to the ring to participate in the Queen of the Ring tournament. She is set to be involved in the qualifying round of the coveted prize, a fatal four-way contest with Stephanie Vaquer, Ivy Nile, and Raquel Rodriguez.

Amidst her imminent return, Asuka has brewed speculations about her look in the upcoming edition of Monday Night Raw, as she showed a rather different version of herself on her social media account. The selfie she posted sparked widespread speculation about whether we’ll witness a different Asuka upon her return.

Dedicated WWE fans have a vivid memory of Asuka’s professional career in the promotion so far.

Cody Rhodes is the definition of rising from the ashes to reach the top of the food chain. The man who left WWE due to major frustrations went on to become a star in the outside world and later returned to the company to take it by storm. In doing so, he has become the face of WWE and that status has brought him immense fame and success.

Amongst those successful endeavors, Rhodes has also clinched multiple brand endorsement deals. This has been a significant boost to his financial success. However, a current champion is not appreciative of one of his deals and made his feelings completely clear.

Welcome to this review of this past Friday’s episode of Smackdown, right here on Nerdly. Let’s see what went down on this week’s show!

Match #1: Triple Threat Money in the Bank Qualifying Match – Naomi def. Jade Cargill and Nia Jax The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

Naomi is officially headed to Los Angeles to compete in the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match after defeating her rival Jade Cargill as well as Nia Jax. The caution tape clad Superstar shined early but the inevitable power of Cargill evened the playing field, but it was a Jax leg drop from the top rope that nearly ended the match early. Cargill nailed Naomi with Jaded, but Jax bulldozed her opponents to break up the pin and kept the match alive, and a subsequent Super Samoan Drop from Jax and a huge splash from Cargill couldn’t end the bout either.

More than storylines, altercations, and flashy entrances, the most important component of an elite talent in the WWE is courage. It is what separates the weed from the chaff in professional wrestling and establishes new precedents inside the squared ring.

At the recent edition of Friday Night SmackDown, the WWE universe witnessed courage from a prominent WWE superstar, as she appeared before her home crowd despite being in major physical discomfort. Her appearance made it evident that she is aiming for her swift return to the ring, and with focus and dedication, it is only a matter of time before her full-fledged return becomes a reality.

An unprecedented turn of events occurred as SmackDown was hosted by the town of Knoxville, Tennessee. Amidst a resounding applause from the WWE universe,...

The WWE Universe saw Jade Cargill rise to prominence at WrestleMania 41. The Jamaican professional wrestler shocked the WWE community by taking on Naomi in the first-ever non-title women’s singles match at the company’s most important event.

By using her exceptional in-ring skills to defeat an experienced opponent like Naomi, Jade Cargill further cemented her strong position within the organization. Even though Cargill’s ascent in the WWE appears inevitable, she possesses the charisma and star power to make an impact in the film industry as well.

Over the years, there has been a major change in the WWE women’s division. The emergence of celebrities like Saraya, Aj Lee, Natalya, and Trish Stratus marked the beginning of the company’s transformation of this once-underappreciated but significant division.

Since then, several vocal in-ring performers, including Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, Rhea Ripley, and Bianca Belair, have continued the trend of revolutionary changes within WWE’s female division. In this sense, a lot of sports veterans think that the women’s division of WWE is at a fascinating turning point right now.

The WWE women’s division has undergone a remarkable transformation, completely redefining how female wrestlers are perceived within the company and the broader wrestling world. Not too long ago, women in wrestling were often portrayed through sensational storylines and overly s*xualized characters, overshadowing their athletic abilities.

However, in the modern era, WWE has successfully reshaped this image, showcasing a roster of powerful, skilled, and intense in-ring performers. These trailblazing athletes have earned the respect of fans worldwide and carved out a meaningful, lasting place in the heart of the wrestling community.

The dawn of WWE’s modern era introduced a wave of talented female wrestlers such as Trish Stratus, Lita, and Beth Phoenix, performers who helped shift the perception of women’s roles in the industry.

Triple H has long been known as one of the most intense and commanding performers in the ring. Throughout his career, he has never shied away from putting others in their place, both in scripted storylines and real-life situations. However, for his wife, Stephanie McMahon, “The Game” reaches an entirely different level of intensity.

This was evident in a recent interview where Stephanie McMahon shared that her husband nearly confronted a fan who verbally attacked her during a match at WrestleMania 34. Triple H was reportedly ready to take matters into his own hands, underscoring just how fiercely protective he is when it comes to his wife.

In a recent interview, Becky Lynch lost it when she was compared to Hulk Hogan, who is known as one of WWE’s most selfish superstars. Some believe she has a lot of control over her storylines and always makes herself look good, which led to her being called “Becky Hogan.”

She absolutely hated the nickname. However, despite these claims, Lynch has helped many female wrestlers succeed, including Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, and Lyra Valkyria, her opponent at WWE Backlash 2025.

Becky Lynch recently spoke about being compared to Hulk Hogan on the latest episode of Raw Recap, as some accuse her of changing storylines to benefit herself. She felt hurt and betrayed by fans who believe she is just as selfish and manipulative as Hogan. Becky Lynch said,

These people go around...

Many WWE Superstars have come and gone, but few have made an impact as powerful as Rhea Ripley. From humble beginnings in the company, she has become a dominant and intimidating force in the women’s division, capturing the Women’s World Championship twice in her still-young career.

Rhea has reached a level of success that many aspire to, earning the respect and admiration of fellow Superstars, many of whom now hope for the chance to share the ring with her. Perhaps no one is more eager for that opportunity than her husband, Buddy Matthews.

Rhea Ripley has been one of the most amazing forces in women’s wrestling and ever since her stepping foot in the ring, there have been frequent comparisons about how she could have given the late Chyna a run for her money. Ripley, who holds the joint record of the longest reigning women’s champion, also made the fans tune back in to the women’s division, branching out from the single-dimensional shows led by Bayley and Becky Lynch.

Mami tied the knot with her best friend, Buddy Matthews on June 23rd, 2024. Their relationship was known to the world a year prior. Matthews, who continues to wrestle for Aew, was a part of the House of Black stable until his ankle injury left him inactive for a while. He was also a former part of WWE with the ring name ‘Buddy Murphy’, which was later shortened to Murphy.

Why would...

Nikki Bella is one of the most successful wrestlers/reality TV stars in the business. She has leveraged her fame into mainstream success and has appeared on various TV shows. It all started with Total Divas. The show, which ran from 2013 to 2019, made the Bella Twins a household name.

They were made the main characters of the show because Nikki Bella was in a relationship with John Cena, who was then the top guy in the company. The show was a massive hit, shining a light on the company’s often underrepresented women’s division and bringing in a new audience of female fans who wanted to see what their favorite reality stars could accomplish inside the ring.

Bayley was one of Triple H’s crown jewels at Nxt. Her story at the developmental brand was perfectly crafted, and everyone celebrated its payoff. She was the ultimate baby face at Full Sail, and her rivalry with Sasha Banks (Mercedes Mone) produced some of the best women’s matches ever. Yet, Bayley hasn’t been treated as well on the main roster compared to her contemporaries.

She was supposed to be the next big baby face for the women’s division, but was ruined by Vince McMahon’s booking during the late 2010s. After Hhh became the head of creative, things did start looking up for her, but now, she has a diminished spot on the roster, and that has annoyed the former women’s champion.

Match #1: WWE Women’s Championship Triple Threat Match – Iyo Sky def. Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair The following is courtesy of wwe.com:

WWE Women’s Champion Iyo Sky, Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley collided in an instant classic Triple Threat Match at a warm Allegiant Stadium. Ripley and Belair seemed to work together to remove Sky from the equation at the start. Ripley, Sky and Belair took each other to the limit, performing jaw-dropping moves that left the ring looking like a car crash. The Est nailed a 450 splash on Sky, only for The Eradicator to hit the Riptide on Belair, who kicked out. Sky countered an Avalanche Riptide, but she was caught with a boot from Ripley...

His perspective on the current state of the league will be valuable for fans looking to understand the dynamics of the upcoming games.

In addition to basketball, Bianca Belair will make an appearance to discuss her preparations for WrestleMania. As a prominent figure in professional wrestling, Belair’s insights into the event and her role in it will be intriguing for wrestling fans.

Welcome to the dark side of history, as in one of the most polarizing finishes in WWE WrestleMania history, John Cena pinned Cody Rhodes to become WWE Champion for the 17th time—breaking Ric Flair’s long-standing record. But this wasn’t the feel-good moment some expected. Cena didn’t do it with hustle, loyalty, and respect. He did it with a low blow, a stolen title belt, and a timely assist from Travis Scott. From the moment Cena walked out with a cold stare and none of his usual theatrics, the vibe was different. No towel toss, no salute. Just business. Cody, meanwhile, rolled in with dirt bikes, a skull helmet, and his entire family front row. And they went home disappointed.

Early on, Cena played mind games. He was smug, slow, dismissive. And when Cody began to mount a comeback, Cena upped the intensity, dropping him with multiple...

WrestleMania 41 wrapped up its spectacular two-night extravaganza at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas with an unforgettable finale that had everyone talking. The electric atmosphere was amplified by a celebrity-packed audience who witnessed John Cena make history by capturing his record-breaking 17th WWE Championship.

Wrestling fans weren’t the only ones on the edge of their seats—stars from music, sports, and Hollywood turned out in droves to see the action unfold on the grandest stage of them all.

With stunning entrances, shocking twists, and career-defining moments, the second night of WWE‘s premier event delivered drama worthy of its Las Vegas setting, as the entertainment capital of the world played host to sports entertainment’s biggest night of the year.

Celebrity sightings at the grand finale

You couldn’t turn your head without spotting a famous face in the crowd during WrestleMania 41’s epic conclusion. The star power was off...

WrestleMania 41—what a spectacle! But as with any grand show, it wasn’t without its awkward stumbles and unexpected flubs. Held on April 19 and 20, 2025, at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, this year’s event had the wrestling world on edge, eager for those unforgettable moments that make WrestleMania legendary.

But, as anyone who’s been to a WWE event can tell you, not everything goes according to plan. Sure, we had some jaw-dropping matches, but we also had moments that made us cringe and ask, “What just happened?” From botched entrances to confusing storytelling, WrestleMania 41 served up some moments that weren’t exactly the highlight reel material WWE probably hoped for.

So, here’s a look at the five most embarrassing moments that stood out during this year’s event, some of which left fans speechless (and not in a good way).

5. Technical foul in the squared circle: WrestleMania 41 hits...

As a lifelong WWE fan, WrestleMania 41 at Allegiant Stadium delivered in every sense! Fans left WrestleMania 41 with all the feels, with the Women’s Division stealing the show. They put together such an excellent entrance, considering how they brilliantly melded Rhea Ripley with DC’s The Batman Who Laughs.

On Night 1 of WrestleMania, Jade Cargill’s ‘Storm’ unleashed sheer chaos and fear. She also overshadowed a wardrobe malfunction. Thankfully, the women’s triple threat match on Night 2 of Mania, which included Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, and Iyo Sky, went perfectly well without any wardrobe malfunctions. Fans could all appreciate their brilliant athleticism.

Essentially, this is why WrestleMania is considered the crown jewel of sports entertainment.

Being infatuated with celebrities might be harmless for the most part, but sometimes, things end up taking a more sinister turn. For some, their love for a star doesn’t end with fan pages and posters on the wall, but transcends the boundaries that should have been obvious right from the start. Who would know this better than Asuka, the professional wrestler who once feared for her life thanks to fans who do not know the difference between admiration and obsession?

Earlier this year, Asuka expressed concerns for her safety after interactions with fans went wrong. While we do not know what exactly went down, it was enough to shake her to the core, so much so that she had to seek consultation from the police.

Rhea Ripley is currently one of the top wrestling superstars in WWE. This WrestleMania 41 marked her sixth straight appearance in the WrestleMania main events. It was a high-stakes match with the Women’s World Championship on the line. Iyo Sky managed to get the better of the two contenders and successfully retained her title at WrestleMania 41.

The triple-threat match was crucial for Rhea Ripley. It may have been just a title defense for Iyo Sky and a title opportunity for Bianca Blair, but it was personal for Ripley, as she felt she got played.

How was it personal for Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 41?

Rhea Ripley, Iyo Sky, and Bianca Blair were once teammates at Survivor Series 2024, eventually becoming rivals at WrestleMania 41. There is a long history of friendship that turned into bitterness, and eventually, they stood against each other at WrestleMania in the triple-threat match. All three wrestlers have known...

Jade Cargill vs Naomi match on Night One of WrestleMania 41 can be considered a historical one. For instance, it is the first women’s singles match that did not have a title on the line. Their storyline was intriguing enough for WWE to sanction a singles match, where the two women showed their pure hatred for each other.

However, what would have been a brilliant match was turned into an above-average bout between the two. A major issue in the match, as cited by fans on social media, was the gear worn by both wrestlers. The home audiences were frustrated at the number of wardrobe malfunctions that happened during the match.

Since the event was livestreamed on Netflix, there was no censoring of the mishaps during the event. Fans criticized WWE for the uncomfortable wardrobes that the wrestlers wore.

Jade Cargill vs Naomi’s great match was ruined by multiple...

A few short months ago, WWE stars Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair and Iyo Sky walked into Survivor Series as allies — but this weekend, they walk into WrestleMania as enemies. As three of the most decorated wrestlers in WWE’s Women’s Division, Belair, Sky and Ripley are no strangers to fighting for the spotlight, but this year’s road to WrestleMania has been rockier (and more personal) than ever before.

Ahead of their triple threat match for the WWE Women’s World Championship on night two of WrestleMania 41, Belair, Ripley and Sky spoke to Variety about how their longstanding friendships turned sour.

According to Ripley, tensions started rising after she inadvertently interfered with a match between Sky and Liv Morgan, leading to Sky being disqualified and losing a chance to compete in the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view.

“Obviously, my emotions seem to get the best of me at times. I couldn’t help myself,...

Jade Cargill is one of the most promising prospects for WWE. Although the Iwc has not favored her, no one can deny that she gives off the aura and vibe of a star. Cargill is also one of the few stars who moved from Aew to WWE for better prospects. Since then, she hasn’t looked back and is on the road to becoming a wrestling legend.

Some fans argue, though, that she was better off at Aew. The argument is fair since she did singles gold there. Cargill was promoted as a mainstream star at Aew. Thus, some think that WWE needs to promote and book her better.

Fans think Jade Cargill deserves better than what she gets

Jade Cargill has been wrestling for more than five years. For someone so new to wrestling, she was pushed very heavily. Her unique look made it easy to do it. In Aew,...

Tattoos often become an integral part of the life of those who have them. Often they portray a personal story, carry a vested or deep meaning for the person, or are symbolic in most senses. Rhea Ripley is one such character in the WWE with some remarkable tattoos on her body.

The 2-time Women’s Champion is currently on a dream run in the WWE. Her intimidating personality and charismatic aura have garnered her a special place in the hearts of the fans. His physical attributes and the various tattoos also impressed most WWE fans. Recently, Rhea revealed what her tattoos mean.

Interestingly, around 20 tattoos are inked all across her body. Some of the more notable ones are a captivating mandala adorned with roses on her leg, a heartfelt tribute inspired by her grandmother,...

Rhea Ripley made her first appearance in the WWE at Mae Young Classic 2017. However, it was just a taste of what awaited her. Ripley made headlines when she and her Nxt Women’s team defeated Team Raw and Team SmackDown in 2019 at Survivor Series.

Then came the year 2020, and everything changed for Ripley. She was featured in WrestleMania 36 and has been a part of this event every year, making her mark. It is a bit unusual for an Nxt wrestler to secure a continuous WrestleMania appearance without a good duration spent in the WWE.

Rhea Ripley Continues Her WrestleMania Streak

Her performance has played a major role, and her strength makes her a perfect superstar for events like WrestleMania. At WrestleMania 41, she will face Iyo Sky, the WWE women’s champion, and Bianca Belair in a triple-threat title match. She will now hold a streak of 6 consecutive appearances in WrestleMania.

John Cena needs a win desperately. Yes, you heard that right. A decade ago, the thought of Cena needing a WrestleMania win would’ve sounded absurd. But with no singles Ple wins since 2018, and his retirement tour in motion, the 16-time world champion needs a statement victory to end his story on a high. And he’s not alone. From Cm Punk chasing a long-overdue Mania moment to Randy Orton searching for one more spark to light his legend, several top-tier superstars are heading into WrestleMania 41 not as favorites but as underdogs fighting to reclaim their place in history.

Similarly, while Cm Punk has major wins over stars this year, his Mania victory column has been blank for quite a while. His last victory was against Chris Jericho(a man who isn’t in the company) at WrestleMania 28 when he defended the WWE title. His last Mania match was at...

Bianca Belair’s first WrestleMania victory came on April 10, 2021 — and she hasn’t looked back since. That night, she and her opponent Sasha Banks made history as the first Black women to headline WrestleMania, delivering a moment that was as powerful as it was groundbreaking. But it wasn’t just a milestone — it was the start of something bigger.

Since then, Belair has racked up win after win on WWE’s biggest stage: defeating Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 38, overcoming Asuka at WrestleMania 39, and teaming with Jade Cargill and Naomi in 2024 to take down Damage Ctrl.

That’s four WrestleMania appearances, four victories, and one undeniable reign in the ring. Being undefeated at WrestleMania carries a lot of weight — just think about one of the most shocking results in WWE history, when The Undertaker’s undefeated streak of 21 straight WrestleMania victories came...
