Scott Steiner & Bron Breakker were interviewed at a football game and they were pretty open about Brock Rechsteiner (Scott’s son) going to WWE.

Scott seemed to imply he would be a Steiner, but Brock Breakker works as a name. For people who hate the name, put him and Bron in a team and call them “Breakker Breakker.”

I’d unironically like to one day see that tag. Just as long as Lesnar threatens to punch Braun in the head if they lose.

Maybe. I’m used to Bron Breakker at this point. It’s not like his dad’s name was really Rick Steiner.

I just realized that New Year’s Evil is going to be using WWE branding and won’t be leading with NXT branding. So it’ll be “WWE New Year’s Evil.” That could carry over onto shows like No Mercy and Halloween Havoc too.

Maybe so, come to think of it. I read that NYEvil would be the first, but I remember some confusion with Deadline, so that sounds right.

Tommy Dreamer has come out and said that his goals/predictions for TNA in 2025 are to move tickets to these bigger arenas and secure a new TV deal. I don’t think Dreamer would be saying that if something wasn’t in the works.
It seems pretty likely there is going to be some AEW cope in 2025 when TNA hits some markers that put them to shame a little. |

Australia hasn’t been able to get the SNME specials (probably some NBC thing), but WWE put at least the latest one straight up on YouTube. Watched some stuff from it. Sheamus and Bron Breakker was good. Jacob Fatu is a star and is getting over to the point they won’t be able to stop people cheering for the brutality. I’m thinking he could be facing Roman at WrestleMania. I don’t think it was an accident he was wearing red.
I’ve low-key got him as a darkhorse pick for Rumble Winner too. I obviously wouldn’t put him ahead of Roman or Punk right now, but Jacob and Cody has been something they haven’t blown up just yet. |

On TNA/WWE deal:
It’s crazy how many people still buy into the “working with WWE bad” narrative. This isn’t Vince with his trust issues and desire to destroy everyone so WWE is the only option. WWE wants to expand and play in the legitimate media landscape. Even if you look at things cynically, it makes PR and legal sense for WWE to arrange these sorts of partnerships. It allows them to hide behind their independent contractor thing and peddle in goodwill. They can better control the entire wrestling industry with things like promotional partnerships and the ID program. It’s like expanding their developmental on someone else’s dime too. The biggest iceberg in this thing is if a promotion decides to go rogue and Akira Maeda or do an ECW on the situation. It probably wouldn’t be received well. Look at what PCO tried to do with GCW lol. WWE and TNA probably don’t just have a multi-year agreement, but a multi-year plan. I don’t know if it happens in 2025 or 2026, but TNA may overtake AEW as #2 through this. |

Weird ahh ending to NXT tonight....not sure if intentional or not, but color test bar with text that said WWE TRANSMISSION at first, then sounds of backspace being pressed a bunch on a computer keyboard and then new text being typed that read VENGEANCE DAY.

Yeah, no offense, but I have 0 frame of reference for who that is via not watching TNA.
Also, I now actually kinda like the WWE × TNA thing. Might help me familiarize with some from the latter. Only thing I really don’t like is champion in company x being made to defend vs. a company y competitor. It just seems obvious that no matter how good the relationship between the companies might be behind the scenes, neither is going to have the other win a title belonging to the opposing company. Though I suppose it might be fun to make the currently defunct 24/7 Championship a thing again and have it be a neutral, inter-company title that anyone from either side can win at any time. Fun for both sides. |

He threw a chair or something at Kevin Sullivan’s head in MLW iirc. I’m surprised he’s still around.

I just saw the Bloodline Edition cover of WWE 2k25. It would be funny if Rock vs. Roman was built around Rock not being included on it.

WWE are booking a PLE called "Ruthless Aggression" for December in Boston which will built around Cena's retirement match.
That's gonna have a legit emotional, "end of an era" feel to it even though he's been part-time since 2017. Kinda funny to think back to how insufferable Super Cena felt at times, but you really can't start to miss someone until they go away. Especially when the whole promotion is built around them for well over a decade. Happy he's been received warmly every time he's been back - and that will continue on this final run. |

Cena's whole goal in this final run (per his promos and post-Rumble interview) is to close his career with World Title #17. He's already lost the Rumble. I'm 50/50 on the Chamber - could see him losing it, could also see him winning it but getting dropped by Cody at Mania.
Either way he'll enter MITB with desperation as it'd be seen as his last chance to secure a title match, and now on his terms. Him just saving the title match for his retirement match could very well be in play. Winning the title and then retiring in his hometown feels like it'd be a cool ending. |
