“We Want Melo” Carmelo Hayes gets his rematch for the U.S Title against Sami Zayn tonight. #SmackDown

Pat McAfee says that he will never appear on any wrestling television show again if Randy Orton loses to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 42.

Sami Zayn retains the U.S Title against Carmelo Hayes. Zayn took advantage of Melo being checked up on the referee. #SmackDown

Those spoken to believe Pat McAfee aligning with Randy Orton was an edict from TKO brass to WWE creative, not an idea that originated in the creative room. The idea was then approved by Triple H. One source believed the edict may have come from as far up as Ari Emanuel. (via PWlnsider)

NXT presents ‘STAND & DELIVER’ 2026 live tonight. • Men’s NXT Championship Fatal 4-Way • Women’s NXT Championship Triple Threat • Tatum Paxley vs. Blake Monroe (North American Title) • Myles Borne vs. Johnny Gargano (North American Title) • Sol Ruca vs. Zaria • Vanity Project vs. Los Americanos (Tag Titles)

Cody Rhodes promo responding to Randy Orton and Pat McAfee’s attack earlier in the night was not listed internally on the planned rundown for the show. There is a belief that some of Rhodes' comments were him shooting about TKO having inserted McAfee into the story. (via PWlnsider)

Cody Rhodes was reportedly told by people in creative to go out to the ring later in the show last night and shoot from the hip regarding Pat McAfee and TKO. (via @BodyslamNet)

WWE and Netflix needs to get the RAW and SmackDown back catalogue on the platform.

IShowSpeed gets pro wrestling.

Speed & LA have built up their Mania program in the space of four days. Fair play.

WWE is actively teasing the return of The Demon. On Main Event this week, the commentary team stated that we may find out what's on THE DEMONIC mind of Finn Balor at WrestleMania.

History of Andre The Giant Battle Royal winners: 2014: Cesaro 2015: Big Show 2016: Corbin 2017: Mojo 2018: Matt Hardy 2019: Braun 2021: Jey Uso 2022: Madcap Moss 2023: Lashley 2024: Bronson Reed 2025: Carmelo Hayes

I think it's SO OBVIOUS when a celeb loves pro wrestling, and GETS IT. Speed in his very first appearance took an RKO on the announce table. He was then Speared in half by Bron Breakker. Look at the work with LA Knight and the sheer commitment on display. He's not just walking in slow motion with a fake belt.

We are now two weeks away from WrestleMania 42.

Current interest levels in seeing Orton & Pat McAfee vs. Cody Rhodes & Jelly Roll...

I would love to know where he's got this idea that Pat is a huge draw in pro wrestling. What wrestling fan is spending a large amount of money on Mania tickets to see him? Did his match on PPV last year increase ticket sales in any capacity? He clearly believes celebrities are bigger than the wrestlers.

Are we expecting Cody vs. Randy to be booked just like Cody vs. Cena? Interference from Pat and Jelly Roll? Match absolutely stinks. They then run it back with zero celeb involvement at SummerSlam, and it's tremendous. ♻️♻️♻️♻️

Can someone please explain to me how Pat McAfee telling everyone the product sucks is supposed to increase interest in the product, specifically WrestleMania ticket sales?

There is so much lore to explore with Randy & Cody. It's possibly the easiest story to tell on the entire Mania card. Instead we get The Jelly Roll Experience, and Pat McAfee shooting on how supposedly shite the product is. Brilliant.

Oba and Brock have knocked it out of the park. It's simple but so so strong. The calls for them to main event night one are justified.
