Logan Paul Says He’s ‘Fed Up’ With WWE Over Masked Men Attacks

Masked men have interfered in The Vision’s matches over the last few weeks, which Logan Paul isn’t happy about, as he has asked WWE referees and management to do a better job of keeping them away.

At Elimination Chamber, one masked man was caught by Adam Pearce, who turned out to be an unidentified man. But the second one was a known face, that of Seth Rollins, who cost Logan Paul the men’s Elimination Chamber match as Rollins stomped him. While speaking on his “Impaulsive” podcast, Paul aired his frustration about these unknown figures.

“Also, I actually am a bit kind of like fed up with just the organization at the moment because I feel like we know the masked men are just running around, right? And no one’s stopping them. The referees aren’t doing anything. The executives aren’t doing anything,” said Paul. “I’m on fire in the Chamber. I have three eliminations. I’m going to win. It’s clear I have two guys left. One of which I’ve beaten before and the one I got really close. And then Seth Rollins comes in like … [tells WWE] ‘Bro, get … Secure the perimeter.'”

One of the masked men was Austin Theory, who eventually joined The Vision, but the others were some unknown names. The masked men once again took over “WWE Raw” this past week, and one of the men behind the mask was Seth Rollins, who had used that get-up when he interfered at Elimination Chamber. It remains to be seen if WWE has more masked men appear on its shows, and perhaps one (or two) of them could be some known names who could be The Vision’s opponents at WrestleMania.

WWE’s Booker T On Rhea Ripley-Jade Cargill Friction: ‘It Makes For A Better Match’

Booker T feels that the rumored real-life fight between Rhea Ripley and Jade Cargill will only make their WWE feud more interesting.

As we head towards WrestleMania 42, one world title match that’s got many talking is the clash between Ripley and Cargill, where there’s some real-life animosity between the two. Booker T, who’s seen many a fight in pro wrestling, doesn’t know if the rumors are true, but feels that such disagreements are a part-and-parcel of the business. 

“I don’t know anything but it might be true. That’s just part of the business. I’ve worked with a lot of guys that I didn’t like. I didn’t like, we wasn’t breaking bread together or anything like that. You know, we was cordial and you know, [we’d say] what’s up. We was walking by each other, but we didn’t go out of our way to go and speak to each other or anything like that. That’s just part of it. And, for me, as long as we know we can do business, that’s the only thing that matters. It normally makes for the best matches when you got that that, you know, when you got that real vitriol between the two,” he said on the “Hall of Fame” show. “So, I would love if Rhea Ripley and Jade Cargill have a little bit of that going into that situation because it’s only going to make for a better match.”

Booker T recalled his own experiences, recounting an incident where he and Fit Finlay had an incredibly physical match that began after Finlay hurt his back, prompting Booker to respond with a stiff spin kick. He also touched on his infamous real-life feud with Batista, saying their best matches came after their backstage fight. 

The fight between Ripley and Cargill is reportedly legitimate, with the former telling the WWE Women’s Champion to learn how to work, which escalated into others like Nia Jax and Chelsea Green wading into the argument.

Danhausen Offers Update On When He Might Wrestle In WWE: ‘I Hope Soon’

WWE’s Danhausen has discussed his future plans in WWE and when he intends to begin wrestling.

Danhausen is quickly making an impression in WWE despite not wrestling in his new home promotion following his rather muted debut at Elimination Chamber. While speaking on “Raw Recap,” the former AEW star outlined when he would start wrestling and what he intends to do after winning a few matches.

“I hope soon,” replied the new WWE star when asked when fans can see him wrestle. “So far, I’m just going through and cursing some foes, trying to make some friends, possibly setting up some matches so I can win. And then that gives me more money. And then it gives me more likely chance to get on the truck.”

Danhausen has had a list of demands and goals since joining WWE, with the latest being getting his face on WWE’s trucks. While speaking about a hypothetical scenario in which he could wrestle any past or present star in WWE 2K, he named living stars like CM Punk and The Rock as two of the many wrestlers he would like to face, while also joking about how he would like to take back his finisher from Punk, the GTS, which he claims Punk stole from him. Danhausen last wrestled in January when he faced Eric Taylor in the indie promotion, Absolute Intense Wrestling, where he lost against Taylor. 

The new WWE star has encountered many WWE wrestlers in his appearances on both “WWE Raw” and “WWE SmackDown,” with him asking the blue brand’s GM, Nick Aldis, about a Hall of Fame induction and also helping him find a mentor, with Aldis directing him towards an uninterested Miz. He’s so far also cursed a few stars, which includes The Miz, El Grande Americano, and Dominik Mysterio.

AEW Women’s Champ Thekla Takes Issue With The Idea Of Wrestling As An ‘Art Project’

For many, pro wrestling is an art in itself, but AEW’s Thekla hesitates to call it one, despite being an artist outside the ring.

Thekla, who creates paintings, said in a recent interview with “The Sportster” that she wants to give pro wrestling its rightful due and not lump it in with art.

“I always thought there was something douchey to taking pro wrestling, which is pro wrestling, and making it something like a douchey art project. You know what I mean? I never wanted to take it away from what it is,” said the AEW Women’s Champion. 

Thekla, who has had a great first year in AEW, is entirely focused on the promotion and making it big there, which has made it difficult for her to focus on her art. She said she tries to balance both by taking breaks from one to focus on the other, while also explaining her creative process.

“It’s just me being by myself. It’s all painting. It’s very like you throw up on your paper and then you take it inside,” she said. “I don’t know. It’s hard to explain. You get stuck with your own thoughts, and you hate your painting, and you love it. It’s a lot of stuff that is crazy, then our wrestling is very hands-on and physical. I like to take a break from this and then do the other thing. That’s what makes it good for me.”

It’s not even been a year since her debut in AEW, but Thekla has already made a mark in the promotion and is currently in her first reign as the women’s champion, which she won from Kris Statlander. She will have her toughest challenge yet of her title reign this weekend at AEW Revolution, when she will face against Statlander once again in a two out of three falls match.

Charlie (Fka WWE’s Dakota Kai) Reflects On Return Match At EVE Wrestle Queendom

Charlie, formerly Dakota Kai in WWE, has reacted for the first time since her match against Kris Statlander.

The former WWE star wrestled her first match in nearly a year, and her first since her WWE release, at Pro-Wrestling: EVE’s Wrestle Queendom VIII event on March 8 in London, England. Charlie was pleased with the match against Statlander, despite losing it, thanking the fans and her opponent for how smooth it went.

“I had so much fun, and being away from wrestling as long as I was, obviously, I was very nervous for me going into it and stuff. But Kris made it easy, obviously like the crowd [played its part], you know what I mean — everything, like, felt really good,” she said on her Twitch stream.

Charlie, who previously had concussion issues, reassured fans that she was in a good state after the match. She said that the toughest aspect of the pro wrestling business is not the wrestling, but the travel.

“I feel great. It’s always the travel though. Across the board, it’s like, you can feel good after a match, and then when the adrenaline wears off and you have to sit on a plane [shakes her head]. [My neck] Is a little stiff, but we’re good,” she added.

The clash between Charlie and Statlander was for the latter’s EVE International Championship, which the champion successfully retained, extending her reign past 250 days. The match was the penultimate bout of the show, which was headlined by Session Moth Martina and Rhio for the EVE Championship, with the former picking up the win.
