Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will be appearing on tomorrow’s episode of “The Pat McAfee Show” to promote WrestleMania 40.
Due to NCAA basketball coverage, the talk show will air live on ESPN News.
In response to a fan post on social media, WWE NXT Superstar Dijak recalled his time as T-Bar in RETRIBUTION. Dijak tweeted,
“Obviously I s***post a lot, especially about T-Bar and Retribution, and deservedly so because it was awful… BUT, I’ll say this. It taught us perspective, how to endure, how to appreciate, and how to fight for everything. Take something valuable from every experience. We did.”

During a recent appearance on “97.7 QLZ,” Dakota Kai discussed a potential match with Bayley at WrestleMania and what it would mean.
The two recently fought on Smackdown and Kai will likely be in IYO SKY’s corner at WrestleMania 40. She said,
“I know we just had a match on Friday, but Bayley has been part of my wrestling career, even before I was with the company, we’ve known each other for ten years. She’s had a big part to play, obviously, with my time in the company and my coming back. I think there is a lot of history there and it would be really special for us to have that moment. It could be any capacity. If it was WrestleMania, that would be insane, but anything at all, that would be a really special fairytale story for us. Our paths are entwined, we’re gonna have to do it at some point. A year long build, let’s go.”
In a recent interview with “SE Scoops,” Zelina Vega discussed the importance of Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley embracing the cover of WWE 2K24.
Belair and Ripley graced the cover of the video game’s deluxe edition, with Cody Rhodes on the standard edition.
Vega said, “Okay, so… I used to make myself all the time like the No Mercy game like back in the day and like all the other ones that, you know, the Raw versus Smackdowns and I would try to like go through each move and see what would I like and who would I want to be like and whatever. Now it’s really, really cool that I don’t have to do that anymore and it’s just there and it has my gear and my moves and it’s just, it’s cool. So, it’s an incredible thing but I also, I’m so happy and so proud even though Rhea can be a little bit of a jerk. Whatever, but I’m super proud of her and Bianca. To be on the cover like that is so incredible. I just feel like we’re taking so many massive steps as women, and it’s incredible. Also, I think the women, when you played the video games, you would look at the women wrestlers, and they seem to not really be able to get it quite right each time, but it seems like as time has gone on, that’s also improved.”
