After an impressive 23-year tenure with the company, a WWE legend has officially parted ways with the organization. As reported by PW Insider, the wrestling icon has confirmed the end of their career with the company in a recent interview. The WWE website has since removed their name from the active roster, with their Legacy Hall of Fame induction serving as the only remaining acknowledgement of their storied career.
Meanwhile, fans were dealt a disappointing blow when top star Bobby Lashley was forced to withdraw from the King of the Ring qualifier match against Tama Tonga on SmackDown due to an injury. The news was broken by Nick Aldis, with Angelo Dawkins slated to replace Lashley in the match alongside his Pride stablemate.
Ronda Rousey has sparked controversy with her recent allegations that WWE punished Rhea Ripley for exceeding the allotted time in her WrestleMania 39 match against Charlotte Flair. According to Rousey, the duo’s impromptu 20-minute bout didn’t sit well with WWE officials, resulting in Ripley being relegated to limited title defenses and relegated to supporting roles in the storylines of the men on Judgment Day. While the validity of Rousey’s claims remains unconfirmed, the drama has undoubtedly sent shockwaves throughout the WWE Universe.
As the wrestling world continues to evolve, one thing is certain – the drama and intrigue will never cease to amaze. Stay tuned for more updates and breaking news from the world of WWE!
