<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center">Implications for the Wrestling Industry</h2>



<p>While the WWE ID program aims to elevate independent talent and provide them with opportunities within WWE, it has raised concerns among some industry observers. Critics argue that it could potentially undermine competition by making it easier for WWE to acquire promising talent from the independent circuit24.</p>



<p>Overall, the program represents a strategic move by WWE to invest in and shape the future of professional wrestling by fostering new talent through established training facilities.</p>


WWE ID Program: Full List of Recruits


<p>Vince McMahon joined The Pat McAfee Show for his first live interview in around 15 years, earlier this week, and was able to reveal several facts that the WWE Universe was not aware of. </p>



<p>Whilst the biggest talking points coming out of the show are that <a href="https://wrestlingworld.co/news/vince-mcmahon-reveals-that-he-will-be-inducting-the-undertaker-into-the-wwe-hall-of-fame" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Vince McMahon will be inducting The Undertaker into the WWE Hall of Fame</a> next month and <a href="https://wrestlingworld.co/news/austin-theory-is-pat-mcafees-opponent-at-wrestlemania-38" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pat McAfee will be wrestling at WrestleMania</a>, there were several other fascinating details. </p>



<p>The WWE Chairman went into detail about some controversial parts of his career in recent years and was able to explain his side in his own words. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>10. Vince McMahon Works Out at 1:30-3</strong>am</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-workout.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-107202" srcset="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-workout.jpg 800w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-workout-300x300.jpg 300w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-workout-150x150.jpg 150w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-workout-768x768.jpg 768w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-workout-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure>



<p>Vince McMahon is still in incredible shape at 76 years old, something that the former Champion has managed to retain due to his incredible workout regime. As part of his interview with Pat McAfee, the two men opened up about his gym schedule and the WWE Chairman revealed that he works out from 1:30 am and often wraps this up by around 3am. </p>



<p>This works well with McMahon&#8217;s work hours since the Chairman is often backstage and part of shows until the early hours of the morning, so he leaves the show and is able to step straight into a workout. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">9. Vince McMahon Revealed His Favourite WWE Moment of All Time</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-107204" srcset="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince.jpg 800w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-300x300.jpg 300w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-150x150.jpg 150w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-768x768.jpg 768w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure>



<p>Vince McMahon is the brain behind some of the biggest moments in wrestling history, so picking a favorite moment should have been quite difficult for the Chairman. That being said, he was able to reveal to Pat McAfee that his favorite moment of all time was WrestleMania I back in 1985 at Madison Square Garden.</p>



<p>McMahon noted that he put everything into this event financially and, at the time, it was considered to be a huge risk. Luckily, the gamble worked out since WrestleMania has now become an annual event that has been ongoing for almost four decades. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">8. Vince McMahon Has Never Had a Bodyguard </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-media.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-107205" srcset="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-media.jpg 800w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-media-300x300.jpg 300w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-media-150x150.jpg 150w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-media-768x768.jpg 768w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-media-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure>



<p>Despite being a billionaire and one of the best-known figures in America, it&#8217;s surprising to know that Vince McMahon has never had a bodyguard. The WWE Chairman revealed that he was quite easy to get to because he had never had a bodyguard with him.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>&#8220;I always felt like if you could knock off a President of the United States, I’m easy to get to. I never had a bodyguard and all that stuff. And those days when you, from their standpoint, invaded their territory, it was like ‘okay, thems is not just fighting words.’ So many, so many times when people threatened me.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">7. Vince McMahon Has Been on the Receiving End of Several Death Threats </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/taker-vince-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-107206" srcset="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/taker-vince-1.jpg 800w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/taker-vince-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/taker-vince-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/taker-vince-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/taker-vince-1-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure>



<p>As noted earlier, Vince McMahon has never had a bodyguard, which means that he is quite easy to get to. Over the years, several promoters from other wrestling companies have reached the level where they have sent death threats to McMahon and the former Champion even revealed that Jim Ross once overheard a plot where several of these men were &#8220;gonna off&#8221; him.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>&#8220;There’s a story that Jim Ross was telling me one day. And he was with Bill Watts and some of the other old NWA guys and they’re having this conference because there’s a whole bunch of them. ‘What are we do about this kid, you know, that’s invading everything? We have to do something about him.’ And they couldn’t order lunch together, I knew that. They couldn’t do that together.”</p>
</blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>“They’re meeting in terms of what can they possibly do. So, Jim is not a part of the meeting, Jim is in the men’s room. He’s in the men’s room, in a stall taking care of business. In walks, four of, four of the most prominent promoters and they’re talking about how they’re going to off me. ‘This guy, no this guy. I know I can do this. This guy who did this, it was really impressive.’ And they all know people so they’re all talking about who’s gonna off me.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">6. Vince McMahon Had to Learn to Walk Again Following Royal Rumble Botch </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-injury.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-107207" srcset="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-injury.jpg 800w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-injury-300x300.jpg 300w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-injury-150x150.jpg 150w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-injury-768x768.jpg 768w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-injury-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure>



<p>Vince McMahon famously strutted to the ring following the 2005 Royal Rumble match after Batista and John Cena were able to botch the finish. The Chairman knew that only one man could be considered the winner and was forced to take matters into his own hands. </p>



<p>The issue was that, as he climbed into the ring, McMahon blew both of his quads and was then forced to sit on the canvas and bark out orders instead. As part of his interview with Pat McAfee, he was able to open up about the recovery following that injury.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>&#8220;Actually I&#8217;ve blown the left one out twice, that was very unique. Not too many people can sever their quad tendons at the same time, that takes talent. Because you have no use of your legs at all, when you sever your quad tendons and again both of them at the same time, you can&#8217;t walk, you can&#8217;t stand, you can&#8217;t anything so you have to learn how to work all over again.&#8221;</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. Vince McMahon Addressed the Saudi Arabia Controversy </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-saudi-arabia.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-107208" srcset="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-saudi-arabia.jpg 800w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-saudi-arabia-300x300.jpg 300w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-saudi-arabia-150x150.jpg 150w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-saudi-arabia-768x768.jpg 768w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-saudi-arabia-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure>



<p>WWE signed a decade-long deal with Saudi Arabia which will see the company perform twice a year in The Middle East. This deal wasn&#8217;t accepted with open hands by the WWE Universe since Saudi Arabia has been considered to be quite a controversial country.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>&#8220;Even if it’s just English. You get it, you understand. Saudi is no different. People are people. Cultures are cultures and you have to respect that. Just because we as Americans, ‘this is the way we should do this. The whole world should be like us. We know the way and any other way is not the right way.’ Come on. Culture has been around for thousands of years. Long before us.”</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. The WWE Chairman Revealed How He Asked to Have His School Grades Changed</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-office.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-107209" srcset="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-office.jpg 800w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-office-300x300.jpg 300w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-office-150x150.jpg 150w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-office-768x768.jpg 768w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-office-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure>



<p>Vince McMahon is the creative brain behind the biggest wrestling company in the world, but it appears that he had some struggles whilst he was at school. The former WWE Champion opened up to Pat McAfee in his interview and revealed that he once had to ask for his grades to be changed so that he was able to graduate. </p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>&#8220;The reason I mention that is because we were supposed to be graduating at the same time. I don’t have the grades. I’m not going to graduate. What am I going to do? I’m not asking for the world, I’m not asking you to give me an A when I had a D.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>&#8220;So I found where these two professors lived. Knock on your door, knock on their door and say, ‘hello, I’m Vince McMahon. And I’d like to come in and talk to you about you know, what I have. One of them was so kind and said ‘absolutely. As for a B+ to an A-, happy to do that.’ The other was such an unbelievable a–hole that wouldn’t let me in his house. No, I get it. It’s unusual, you know, for a student to find out where you live and knock on the door. I get that.&#8221;</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Vince McMahon Has an Interesting Attitude When It Comes to Being Late</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-entry.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-107210" srcset="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-entry.jpg 800w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-entry-300x300.jpg 300w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-entry-150x150.jpg 150w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-entry-768x768.jpg 768w, https://api.wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/vince-entry-696x696.jpg 696w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure>



<p>Vince McMahon opened up about being late after he arrived late for his interview with Pat McAfee, but noted that at least he was dressed smartly. The Chairman noted that he&#8217;s not a fan of apologizing for being late because it just leads to an entire list of excuses. </p>



<p>McMahon also noted that if you&#8217;re going to be late then at least look good because &#8220;if you&#8217;re late and you look like sh*t then that&#8217;s a double negative.&#8221;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Brock Lesnar Is Very Intelligent </h2>

<p>Ahead of his interview with Vince McMahon, McAfee interviewed Brock Lesnar who talked about how McMahon was a father figure to him. The former NFL player asked the WWE Chairman about his thoughts on Lesnar and he was able to reveal that he&#8217;s actually very intelligent. </p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Vince McMahon Revealed That He Expected More From His Family in WWE</h2>

<p>Vince McMahon has been able to include all members of his family on WWE TV over the years including Linda, Shane, and Stephanie. Vince&#8217;s children have been part of some interesting storylines but it appears that the Chairman expected much more from his family. </p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>&#8220;Hopefully, if you, if you built something, you want it to continue on, you know, and prosper and grow. Whether that&#8217;s with a family member or without a family member. Because my view, this business is, is best for everybody, whether you&#8217;re a part of it or you&#8217;re not a part of it, and you have to treat it as such.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>&#8220;You have to be objective, you know, and look at family members or whoever it is just as you would other employees. And quite frankly, I&#8217;ve probably expected more, you know out of my family members, which is probably not the right thing to say. But nonetheless, it&#8217;s like, you have to do the right thing for the business. So if this person is not working out, then they shouldn&#8217;t be a part of the company.&#8221;</p>

10 Things We Learned From Vince McMahon’s Interview With Pat McAfee

WWE, AEW, Impact PPV Schedule 2022

<p>All Elite Wrestling was merely an idea by a group of wrestlers a few years ago, and in less than two years, the wrestling promotion is breaking several records by a non-WWE company in the United States.&nbsp;</p>



<p>What started as an attempt by Cody Rhodes and co. to host a 10,000 capacity show in 2018, has reached unprecedented levels in October 2021. AEW managed to score more viewers in the 18-49 demo than Monday Night Raw, a show that has been the pillar of professional wrestling for thirty years.</p>



<p>How has the company jumped into the bigger leagues so quickly? Let&#8217;s take a look at five major reasons behind the success.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Avoiding Overexposure</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/tksjaFc.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>One of the biggest problems persisting in WWE is the over-exposure of superstars. The likes of Drew McIntyre, Kofi Kingston, AJ Styles, and even Dean Ambrose were the babyface WWE Champions in the last few years, who started off in a swashbuckling way but went stale quickly. McIntyre was booed merely a year after his huge victory against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Comparatively, AEW rotates its talents in a better way, and the four-PPV structure allows them to avoid booking their champions in unnecessary feuds, which WWE often does due to its monthly PPV schedule.&nbsp;</p>







<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Listening to the Fans</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/1EospzT.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>A major company actually listening to its customers? Is this real life? In the case of AEW, it is quite true. The company has an active presence on social media and often listens to the criticisms laid down by the fans. Superstars who organically get over with the fans are rewarded with better storylines. Their rival, WWE, is known to shun the stars who organically get over and demote them in favor of other stars.&nbsp;</p>







<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. No Separation Between Upper Card and Lower Card</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/5d5PXgC.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>AEW tries its best to elevate all the talents at their disposal, by allowing them screen time with the more popular stars. Newer talents like Daniel Garcia, Dante Martin, etc., are allowed to main event the shows against the likes of Jon Moxley and Kenny Omega. Garcia and Martin may not be the main-event level stars but starring against the heavyweights allows them to create a name for themselves with the audiences.</p>



<p>This mix of talents allows the company to produce fresher matchups which are interesting for a wrestling fan changing the channel to TBS on Wednesday nights. This formula worked quite well for WWE during the Attitude Era, and AEW is following the same approach successfully.&nbsp;</p>







<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Factions</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/mMIyvOW.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>What do you do if you have 100 talents in your roster, but only two hours to fill every week? Simple, you put them in factions. AEW has a truckload of factions, with almost every major star (Omega, Jericho, MJF, Page, etc.) being part of a faction. This allows more talent to appear on live programming, introduces the possibilities of new matchups between different faction members, and prevents feuds from going stagnant.</p>



<p>WWE is known to absolutely ruin the factions they create, and a prime example was how they handled the Bullet Club. The late 90s saw several factions like DX and NWO dominate, and once again, AEW has brought back the concept pretty well.&nbsp;</p>







<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. Surprises!</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/JKcHbP7.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>When AEW started out in 2019, Tony Khan said he wasn’t even close to completing the whole roster. Over the next two years, the company has managed to bring in WWE Hall of Famers, former WWE Champions, and several high-profile celebrities. The company can’t afford to do that forever, but so far they have managed to get a viewer to drop his jaw at every major event.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The ‘What the hell just happened’ factor has worked wonders for AEW, as it gets the people talking and allows people to tune in every week to see what major event will unfold.</p>

5 Reasons Why AEW Is Quickly Becoming a Strong Competition for WWE

<p>Over the years, there have been many families who have been able to prove that wrestling truly is a sport that is passed down in DNA. </p>



<p>While fathers, sons, and daughters have all passed through the company in recent years, there has also been an influx of brothers and sisters who have tried their hand at making a career in the wrestling business. </p>



<p>Of course, there is no better story than a blood feud which is why all of the following family members of this list have found a way to turn against their own relatives. </p>



<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">7. Shane and Vince McMahon</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="youtube-embed" data-video_id="aaPLHhWyBdU"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Remember that time Shane McMahon revealed he bought WCW? Raw, March 26, 2001" width="696" height="392" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/aaPLHhWyBdU?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
</div></figure>



<p>Shane McMahon was pushed into the business from a young age since his father is the Chairman of WWE. Vince McMahon backed his son throughout his career, until that fateful day back in 2001 when Shane McMahon brought WCW. </p>



<p>This began the famous Invasion storyline which later took over WWE. It was one of the biggest shocks in wrestling history up until that moment, and even though the Invasion storyline took a while to get off the ground, the addition of his sister Stephanie McMahon in the story made it one of the best family rivalries of all time. </p>



<p>In recent years, The McMahon family has seemingly remained on the same page, except for when Shane McMahon made his return back in 2016 and was in a feud against his family. This was all seemingly forgotten when WrestleMania was over and Shane and Stephanie became the Commissioners of SmackDown and Raw. </p>







<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">6. Charlotte and Ric Flair</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="youtube-embed" data-video_id="n9KOdKznffk"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Charlotte wants nothing to do with her father Ric Flair: Raw, May 23, 2016" width="696" height="392" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/n9KOdKznffk?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
</div></figure>



<p>Ric Flair is one of the biggest legends to ever grace WWE, as a former 16-time World Champion and a two-time Hall of Famer. Great things were expected of The Nature Boy&#8217;s daughter Charlotte when she decided to make her way into the company back in 2012. </p>



<p>Flair definitely helped Charlotte find her feet in the company, but when it was time for The Queen to ascend to her throne and finally turn heel, her father was the one who got the brunt of the abuse. </p>



<p>After already proving her worth as a Divas and Women&#8217;s Champion in 2016, Charlotte decided it was time for her father to hit the road and told him a story about how he was never there while she was growing up. Flair left her father in tears, as she noted how she watched her father on TV throughout her childhood. </p>







<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">5. Nikki and Brie Bella </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="youtube-embed" data-video_id="ARoPG4BCp-0"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Nikki Bella turns on Brie Bella at SummerSlam: Total Divas, January 4, 2015" width="696" height="392" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ARoPG4BCp-0?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
</div></figure>



<p>Nikki and Brie Bella have been joined at the hip their entire lives and even auditioned for the WWE Diva Search together before the twins were offered WWE contracts. </p>



<p>The two women fought each other&#8217;s corners throughout their WWE careers, until 2014 when Brie Bella put Daniel Bryan ahead of her own career and her sister&#8217;s. Brie quit the company in order for Daniel Bryan to be able to keep hold of his World Championship which inadvertently meant that her sister Nikki was left in the firing line. </p>



<p>When Brie came back and looked to send a message to Stephanie McMahon at SummerSlam in 2014, her sister Nikki shockingly cost her the match, beginning a lengthy, humiliating feud between the two women. </p>







<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">4. Matt and Jeff Hardy</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="youtube-embed" data-video_id="rGx_ZpIhx1c"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Matt Hardy turns on his brother Jeff ... again: Royal Rumble 2009" width="696" height="392" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/rGx_ZpIhx1c?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
</div></figure>



<p>Jeff Hardy may be the younger brother but he has definitely had a much more lucrative WWE career than his brother Matt. </p>



<p>As a former World Champion, Hardy became a target for his brother, back in 2009. After Hardy lost the ECW Championship to Jack Swagger at The Royal Rumble, he attacked his brother, costing him the WWE Championship. </p>



<p>This led to a bitter feud between the two men, where Hardy admitted to setting his brother&#8217;s house on fire and killing his dog in the process. The Hardys then faced off at WrestleMania in an Extreme Rules match that was won by Matt. Their feud seemingly came to an end a few months later, when Jeff Hardy defeated his brother in an I Quit match. </p>







<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">3. Stardust and Goldust </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



<p>Cody Rhodes and Goldust made their way into WWE following in the footsteps of their father, WWE Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes. Goldust was able to become a huge name in WWE&#8217;s Attitude Era, which his younger brother Cody only came through the ranks as part of the more recent PG era. </p>



<p>While both Rhodes and Goldust have had differing levels of success in WWE, the two men were able to come together on numerous occasions and looked to win Championship gold. </p>



<p>After losing their Championships back at Survivor Series in 2014, tensions between Rhodes and his brother began to rise and ended when Stardust delivered a Cross Rhodes to his brother following their loss to The Ascension. Stardust then went on to tell his father that Cody is dead and Dusty may as well be too. </p>







<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">2. Angel Garza and Humberto Carrillo </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



<p>One of the most recent family feuds saw real-life cousins Angel Garza and Humberto Carrillo take their feud to Monday Night Raw. Zelina Vega called up Garza from NXT in order to continue the feud that Andrade had been part of, in the months before.</p>



<p>Garza got the better of his cousin on almost every occasion and has since gone on to become one of the biggest stars on Raw. </p>



<p>The two men had differing routes into WWE with Carrillo coming through the Cruiserweight Classic, while his cousin decided to make a splash in NXT.</p>







<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">1. Stephanie and Vince McMahon </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



<p>Stephanie McMahon has been working for WWE on and off since she was 13 years old. This has included a number of historic moments where McMahon has turned on her own family. As noted above, one of these occasions came back in 2001 as part of the Invasion storyline. </p>



<p>After Shane McMahon was able to acquire WCW from under his father&#8217;s nose, he looked to split ECW between himself and Vince McMahon, but later in the night, it was revealed that he had once again screwed over his father. </p>



<p>This was because ECW had joined forces with WCW to go against WWF and it was McMahon&#8217;s own daughter Stephanie who had become the new owner of ECW. </p>



<p>There were many other occasions where Stephanie McMahon turned on her father including the time back in 2003 where Stephanie faced off against her father in a sanctioned I Quit match. </p>

7 WWE Superstars Who Turned on Their Own Family


<p>COVID-19 was somewhat unheard of a little more than a year ago but over the past year, the virus has left death and devastation in its wake. </p>



<p>The pandemic has reached peaks that have never been seen before by the current generation and forced authority figures all over the world to implement new strategies. </p>



<p>For the first time in the history of WWE, the company was locked down to one place and was forced to air shows on a taped schedule. Later, they were able to make the move to the ThunderDome, where live shows were re-introduced. </p>



<p>With WWE recently announcing their return to live events starting July 16th, it remains to be seen how the company and the fans adapt back to being normal. But before that, let&#8217;s take look at five ways the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the promotion.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Audience Members</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/vWVmgAm.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>The WWE Universe hasn&#8217;t been able to attend a live show since March last year when it was revealed that the company would be locked down at the Performance Center. While WWE has attempted to bring back fans on a few occasions in the past, the ThunderDome idea looks to have been the safest. </p>



<p>WWE recently managed to bring back fans at WrestleMania 37 in a limited capacity, but they went back to airing from the ThunderDome since then. That being said, the live show experience may not be the same for the fans. For the foreseeable future, masks will have to be worn and social distancing will mean that fans may not be seated in close proximity. </p>



<p>As already noted, these measures could be in place for a long time and will change how WWE fans watch the product.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">WWE Live Tours</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/StH1uPu.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>One thing that has definitely changed is the fact that WWE hasn&#8217;t been able to tour so there have been no live events. </p>



<p>This has allowed many stars to take rest after SmackDown and Raw have been recorded and it has meant that all of the stars are in one place. </p>



<p>The lack of live events has led to discussions within WWE about cutting their live event schedule when the company is able to return to the road. </p>



<p>It has been noted over the years just how hectic WWE&#8217;s travel schedule can be and with the promotion recently announcing their return to live events starting July 16th, the schedule will hopefully be less hectic. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">WWE&#8217;s Reliance on Certain Stars</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/jtoCMl7.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>WWE has pushed many stars to the top of the company over the years and even shaped the company around them, but the recent pandemic and the fact that many stars have shown that they can&#8217;t be relied on could change their minds in the future. </p>



<p>There have been many stars who have opted to take time away from the company, while there are others like Sasha Banks, Bayley, and even Asuka who have been the backbone of the company throughout the COVID era. </p>



<p>This could change the way that WWE books their shows moving forward since there are many stars who have proved that they take their role in the company much more seriously than others. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Creative Team</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/piLYA4h.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>WWE&#8217;s creative team has easily been the unsung heroes of the COVID-19 pandemic since they have been forced to pull out storylines under immense pressure. </p>



<p>The team has been able to come up with new angles because pay-per-views were unable to take place at different locations as well as being able to re-draft Raw minutes before it goes on air. </p>



<p>Behind the scenes, these are the men and women who have been able to make every show run smoothly despite superstars requesting leave, being forced onto the sidelines, and even being injured. </p>



<p>Hopefully, in the future, WWE doesn&#8217;t take their creative minds for granted. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Cinematic Matches</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/VWsz5Qy.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>While COVID-19 didn&#8217;t see the debut of cinematic matches, since Matt Hardy was the creative mind behind the first, it has seen an increase. </p>



<p>The fact that WWE has been unable to move locations for pay-per-views has meant that the company has been forced to think outside the box. </p>



<p>This has led to the likes of Firefly Fun House match, Boneyard match, and Wyatt Swamp Fight, and these have been some of the most exciting matches on the card. </p>



<p>It&#8217;s likely that cinematic matches will continue after WWE adapts to their new normal, but the company won&#8217;t need to rely on them as much as they currently do. </p>


5 Ways COVID-19 Pandemic Has Changed WWE

WWE Releases 2021: Full List of Superstars and Employees


<p>To be a WWE wrestler, you need so many more attributes than just big muscles and a tight outfit, because the organization itself, as well as its adoring fans,&nbsp;<a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2925046-wwe-fans-wishlist-for-2021" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">demands so much from its heroes</a>.</p>



<p>Perhaps it is for this reason that so many WWE stars found fame in other fields away from the ring, either before their wrestling careers or once they had hung their boots up for good.</p>



<p>Here are just some of the famous names who showcased a multitude of skills both inside and outside of the WWE bubble.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Brock Lesnar &#8211; A Fighter Through and Through</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/TZdSjCt.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>March 2021 sees the heavyweight UFC rematch take place between Cameroonian Francis Ngannou and American Stipe Miočić as both men look to become the undisputed champion in the top weight class.</p>



<p>However, long before these two came on the scene there was another heavyweight beast who was clearing out the division.</p>



<p>That man was, of course, WWE superstar Brock Lesner, who is regularly mentioned by pundits and commentators as <a href="https://www.pokerstars.com/en/news/10-best-ufc-heavyweights/53910/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">being one of the most dominant heavyweights</a> not just in MMA history, but in wrestling history too.</p>



<p>Although he only ever fought eight times in the UFC that did not stop him from defeating both Frank Mir and Randy Couture.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dwayne Johnson &#8211; Swapping Rock Bottom for Hollywood Heights</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/8O9XC8N.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>It was announced by Forbes Magazine in August 2020 that Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, aside from being an A-list action movie star, was in fact the highest paid actor in the world.</p>



<p>There is no doubt that Johnson cut his acting teeth in the WWE, where his larger-than-life persona gave rise to the ‘People’s Eyebrow’ and had him ask everyone in the WWE if they could “smell what The Rock” was cooking.</p>



<p>All he specializes in cooking up now is huge paychecks, as Hollywood producers seemingly cannot get enough of his bulging biceps and tireless work ethic.</p>



<p>All this success outside the ring probably means that any return that Johnson does make to WWE will only be for the odd one-off visit.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Big Show – Turning the Special Olympics into a Big Show</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/0ISgbD9.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>Paul Wight is the real name of the seven-foot-tall WWE monster best known as The Big Show.</p>



<p>Despite pushing fifty, Wight has always remained relatively close to the wrestling fraternity and has now largely stopped grappling and unleashing dropkicks, to focus on being <a href="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/news/the-big-show-joins-aew-reportedly-to-commentate-on-aew-dark-elevation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a wrestling commentator for the AEW</a>.</p>



<p>When he is not passing comment on bouts, he excels in his role as a goodwill ambassador for the Special Olympics, a cause he has taken to heart since he engaged with it in 2014. Maybe he is just a big friendly giant after all!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Kurt Angle <strong>– A Champion Cast in Gold</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/SHpzx0j.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>Long before he was ever on the radar of Vince McMahon and the WWE, Kurt Angle was writing himself into the history books, winning a wrestling gold medal at the 1996 Olympics.</p>



<p>He managed the feat despite having serious neck and spinal issues, none of which were probably helped much by him later being thrown through tables and hit with chairs in the WWE.</p>



<p>A wrestler seemingly obsessed with reliving his youth, Angle made a failed attempt to make the US Olympic team for the London 2012 games but is still viewed as a legend in the sport.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bill Goldberg <strong>– From a Long Line of Football Players Turned WWE Stars</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/xsZ38V6.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>Goldberg, as he was always known to wrestling fans, comes from a long line of WWE stars whose careers started out in college football and the NFL.</p>



<p>By the time Goldberg had decided he was better suited to wrestling than football, he had already featured on the rosters of the LA Rams, Atlanta Falcons, and the Carolina Panthers. He never set the world alight as a football player, but there were probably not many coaches brave enough to tell him he should call it a day.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AJ Lee &#8211; New York Times Best Selling Author</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/CC1zk9H.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>AJ Lee is one of the women who many believe was a catalyst for the start of the Divas Revolution in WWE, which was later changed to the Women&#8217;s Revolution. Throughout her entire WWE career, Lee competed while struggling with bi-polar and looked to set an example to many women who were overcoming mental disorders. </p>



<p>Lee made the decision to retire from the company following WrestleMania back in 2015, which was when she started to pen her autobiography. &#8220;Crazy is my superpower&#8221; has since become a New York Times Best Seller and has led to Lee being part of a team working to create a series based around it. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mark Henry &#8211; World&#8217;s Strongest Man </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/EjOcyZy.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>At the age of 19, Henry qualified for the 1992 Olympics in weight lifting and went on to finish 10th  Super Heavyweight class. Henry went on to compete all over the world in weight lifting and won many championships before becoming a professional wrestler in 1996. </p>



<p>Despite his wrestling career, Henry continued his weightlifting career and became the World&#8217;s Strongest Man in 2002. Despite only training for the competition for four months, Henry was able to overcome some impressive competition to win the title of World&#8217;s Strongest Man. </p>



<p>This was a character that Henry would use throughout his WWE career which came to an end back in 2018 when Henry quietly retired and was added to The Hall of Fame. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Batista &#8211; From Being Broke to Being The Guardian of Galaxy</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/SZT5xnl.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>While there have been several wrestlers over the years who were able to successfully make the switch over the acting business, Batista is the most recent star. </p>



<p>After dominating WWE as The Animal and winning several World Championships, Batista walked away from WWE back in 2014 and went on to appear as Drax in Guardians of The Galaxy as well as being cast as Mr. Hinx in Spectre. </p>



<p>Since 2006, Batista has appeared in more than 30 different movies including Avengers Infinity War and End Game which are two of the most successful movies of all time. </p>



<p>The time which was between Batista leaving WWE and him getting the role of Drax, there was a lot of struggle for the former WWE World Champion. He lost everything and went broke, and while returning to WWE was an option, he was not going to simply take the easier route.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">John Cena &#8211; Legend to Hollywood</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/e0J9ddV.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>John Cena is a former 16-time WWE Champion who has appeared in several movies over the past few years and even began presenting TV shows.</p>



<p>In just a few short years, the WWE Champion went from direct-to-video to starring in the next Fast &amp; Furious film.</p>



<p>Cena was recently added to the DC Cinematic Universe as Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad. The former WWE Champion has also secured a spin-off series for his Peacemaker character following his debut.</p>



<p>Being the subject of multiple memes certainly gave Cena&#8217;s career a boost, as he went from starring in B-movies and direct-to-video films to major Hollywood comedies the year after, and eventually into more serious action-oriented roles.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Chris Jericho &#8211; The Man With Many Faces</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/fU581cq.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>Chris Jericho has been able to renew and repackage his character over the years to always remain relevant in the wrestling world despite being around for more than two decades. </p>



<p>Throughout his hall of fame-worthy career as a professional wrestler for companies like WWE, New Japan Pro-Wrestling, and AEW, Chris Jericho has often made the claim in kayfabe that he’s the best in the world at what he does.</p>



<p>Outside of the ring, the former Undisputed WWE Champion has been the lead singer of the heavy metal band Fozzy since 2000. Over the past two decades, Jericho has split his time between touring with WWE and touring with Fozzy. </p>



<p>Fozzy has released seven studio albums and one live album over the past 20 years. Jericho has also dipped his toe in the acting pool and started one of wrestling&#8217;s most popular podcasts, Talk Is Jericho, back in 2013. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Who Is Michelle McCool?</h2>



<p>Michelle McCool, one of the prime stars from the Diva Era of WWE, had an illustrious career, winning several championships and other accolades. She was at the forefront of the Diva’s Division back in the late 2000s and retired a few years prior to the Women’s Revolution in the company.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While McCool was just seven years old, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_McCool" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">she was able to apply the Figure Four lock</a>. The iconic maneuver, which was then used by Ric Flair, was McCool’s first foray into wrestling. Although she started out early on the mat, it wasn’t until a long time later that she stepped into the squared circle as a superstar.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">High School Sports</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/e6Iw7gR.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via WWE</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>McCool had a very athletic profile during her high-school days. However, none of the sports she participated, included wrestling. McCool dabbled in softball, basketball, and volleyball, and played first base in Pasco-Hernando State College. She didn’t pursue a professional career in any of those sports and chose to focus on her education instead.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Masters Degree, Science Teacher, Personal Trainer</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/RcIvLB9.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via Pinterest</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>McCool enrolled in Florida State University for her Master’s Degree and received one in Educational Leadership. After completing her education, McCool moved back to her hometown of Palatka, Florida, where she worked as a seventh-grade science teacher for a few years. Apart from the teaching profession, McCool also worked as a personal trainer, teaching gymnastics and kickboxing. She participated in National Physique Committee fitness contests as well, with her strong athletic background playing into her side gigs.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Diva Search&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/XxlwY5N.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via Twitter</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>In 2004, Michelle McCool arrived in WWE, taking part in the Diva Search competition at the onset of the Ruthless Aggression Era. The second season of the Diva Search saw McCool finish as the runner-up, behind Christy Hemme. Despite her loss, she was awarded a contract by WWE. She received a three-year deal in November 2004 and quickly made her debut on WWE television. McCool was joined by another future WWE star, Maria Kanellis in this season of Diva Search.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Backstage Segments and the &#8220;Sexy Teacher&#8221;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/R1nieJu.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via Pinterest</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>Her former experiences as a fitness trainer and teacher came into play in her initial gimmicks in WWE. She started out in backstage segments as a trainer, teaching various stretching activities to wrestlers. After a short stay in the main roster, she was sent to developmental for a while. Her next foray on the main brand saw the debut of the ‘sexy teacher’ gimmick, which continued for a few months until she got injured and was out of action for several months.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The First Diva&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/OO65QvP.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via WWE</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>McCool was repackaged as the All American Diva and subsequently won the brand new Diva’s Championship, becoming the inaugural holder of the title. McCool defeated Natalya at the Great American Bash 2008 to win her first title in WWE. She would go on to hold the title for a few months, and the title itself became synonymous with WWE’s female division for the next eight years.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Co-Champion(!?)</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/zqs5DtQ.jpg" alt="layla-michelle-mccool"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via WWE</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>Michelle McCool hit the peak of her career in WWE when she partnered with Layla at the onset of the decade and won the Women’s Championship together. The duo split the title in half and started referring to themselves as co-champions, and enjoyed considerable success for several months. Eventually, McCool decided to leave the company a year later and did so after a &#8220;Loser Leaves WWE&#8221; match against her former partner and co-champion, Layla.</p>



<p>McCool and Layla laid the foundations for the Tag Division in WWE, taking part in the first-ever doubles Tables Match against Natalya and Beth Phoenix.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Michelle McCool, The Reality Show Star</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/OvMpEC0.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via</em> Pinterest</figcaption></figure>



<p>During her time on top of WWE, McCool appeared in several side projects from time to time.&nbsp;</p>



<p>In 2007, McCool appeared on six episodes of <em>Family Feud</em> along with a few other stars from the company. A year later, McCool and a few other Divas took part in the reality show <em>Project Runway</em>. As the top star of the Diva’s Division, McCool partnered with John Cena (the top male star at that time) on <em>The Best Damn Sports Show Period</em>.</p>



<p>Maryse and Eve Torres accompanied McCool on Muscle of Fitness in early 2009. McCool also took part in the hit reality show, <em>Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader</em>, during a special WWE edition of the show.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mentor in NXT</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/kxrWour.jpg" alt="kaval-michelle-mccool-kofi-kingston"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via WWE</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>During the reality show format of NXT, Team LayCool served as the mentors in Season 2. Their protegee, Kaval, went on to win the season under their guidance. The duo became the first female stars to get a spot on the mentor table and was also the first tag-team in the group. Kaval didn’t have a great deal of success on the main roster though and was fired a few years later.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Undertaker&#8217;s Wife</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/HoPwOr6.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image via Instagram</figcaption></figure>



<p>In 2010, Michelle McCool tied the knot with Mark Calaway, famously known in the professional wrestling industry as The Undertaker. This was McCool’s second marriage after she married her high school sweetheart Jeremy Louis Alexander in 2001. The couple divorced in 2006 and didn’t have any kids together.</p>



<p>Undertaker and McCool performed together on Smackdown for a long time during the initial brand split leading to their marriage. Their daughter Kaia was born in 2012. McCool is also the stepmother for three of Undertaker’s children from his previous two marriages.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Michelle McCool&#8217;s WWE Return</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/FudPHjO.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image via Instagram</figcaption></figure>



<p>Michelle McCool has appeared in WWE from time-to-time, with two of her memorable appearances coming in 2018. She participated in the Women’s Royal Rumble debut edition in 2018, giving an impressive performance despite being away for seven years. She held the record for most eliminations at five. Later that year, she appeared on WWE’s first all-women PPV, Evolution, where she took part in a Battle Royal.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Undertaker’s First Fourth-Wall Break</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/1ko2hxX.jpg" alt="undertaker-michelle-mccool"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via WWE</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>Michelle McCool was part of the first-ever character break by The Undertaker. After his loss to Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania 33 in 2017, the Deadman put down his ring attire, had a moment in the ring, and proceeded to kiss McCool at ringside. This was the first time their relationship was mentioned on WWE programming, and it signaled the end of the line for the Phenom. However, he eventually returned next year, taking on John Cena at Wrestlemania 34. The Deadman later proceeded to appear in several WWE packages without his character.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">McCool vs Charlotte Flair</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/nxN6pHx.jpg" alt="michelle-mccool-charlotte-flair"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via Instagram</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>Although McCool is now 40 and wishes to be closer to her family, she has <a href="https://wrestlingworld.co/news/former-divas-champion-michelle-mccool-aims-one-more-match-wrestle-charlotte-flair/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">expressed a desire to fight Charlotte Flair</a>. McCool was the first star to hold the Divas Title, while Flair was the last one to hold it before it got renamed to the Women’s Championship. Charlotte faced Trish Stratus at Summerslam 2019, and a possible matchup against McCool cannot be ruled out.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Happened to Michelle McCool?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/4jCJCbj.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Image via Instagram</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>McCool had several health issues during her career. She retired from WWE in 2011 and disclosed that she had wrestled for the last few months of her career with a broken toe, torn joint capsules, and a torn MCL. McCool had several other issues in the past as well, and revealed in 2019, that she faced several infertility issues along with miscarriages.&nbsp;</p>



<p>In 2016, she was diagnosed with Skin Cancer and underwent successful treatment for the deadly disease.</p>



<p>Hopefully, we will see more Michelle McCool cameos in the coming years.</p>


Michelle McCool: Everything You Need to Know Former Diva and The Undertaker’s Wife


<p>WWE&#8217;s creative team has been under a lot of pressure throughout 2020 to come up with engaging storyines since the global pandemic has forced the company to think outside the box for many of their pay-per-view events. </p>



<p>This included making Money in the Bank a match that took place at the company&#8217;s corporate headquarters and changing WrestleMania to a two-night event. </p>



<p>WWE has also changed location three times from The Performance Center to The Amway Center and now the company feels at home inside Tropicana Field.    </p>



<p>While WWE&#8217;s creative team has been forced to endure a lot this year, including mass releases, the storylines have also lacked consistency with several stories coming to an end prematurely or just being dropped without explanation. </p>



<p>Here are just five WWE storylines that the company failed to wrap up this year and could technically revisit in 2021. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shayna Baszler The Vampire</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/Di0KlHS.jpg" alt=""/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image via WWE</figcaption></figure>



<p>At the beginning of the year, Shayna Baszler was one of the hottest commodities in the Women&#8217;s Division and was seen as a legitimate contender to win the Women&#8217;s Royal Rumble match. </p>



<p>Despite not winning The Rumble, Baszler was still given a shot at the Women&#8217;s Championship at WrestleMania when she took on Becky Lynch. The build-up to this match saw Baszler attack the Women&#8217;s Champion and bite a piece of flesh from her neck, it was a strange way to introduce herself to the main roster and left the WWE Universe questioning what gimmick Baszler was going to portray. </p>



<p>This was the only time Baszler decided to bite one of her opponents and has since become another average member of the Women&#8217;s Division. </p>



<p>Despite being a stand-out star in NXT, Baszler has most recently been left in throwaway storylines in the months that followed which included partnering up with Nia Jax despite hating The Irresistible Force a few months ago. </p>



<p>Jax and Baszler recently lost the Women&#8217;s Tag Team Championships at WWE TLC when The Submission Magician was pinned by the returning Queen Charlotte Flair. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Otis and Mandy Rose -The Love Story</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/7YwwtWr.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>Otis and Mandy Rose were two of the most pushed stars on SmackDown earlier in the year after it was revealed by The SmackDown hacker that Sonya Deville and Dolph Ziggler were plotting to keep the two stars apart. </p>



<p>Rose and Otis later finally came together at WrestleMania in one of the biggest moments of the year, before Deville and Rose then stepped into a feud that culminated in a loser leaves WWE match at SummerSlam. </p>



<p>Following her victory over Deville, it appeared that Rose had no reason to remain on SmackDown and was moved over to Raw after The Miz interfered in their relationship. The move saw The Miz also follow over to Raw but continue his feud with Otis since he later took away his Money in the Bank contract. </p>



<p>Despite continuing the story between Miz and Otis, WWE decided to no longer continue any kind of relationship between Otis and Mandy Rose. The Golden Goddess is no longer mentioned on SmackDown and Otis is now part of a team with Chad Gable. </p>



<p>Rose has since moved on to a partnership with Dana Brooke over on Raw, where she has seemingly been handed a clean slate. There has been no mention of Otis and Mandy&#8217;s relationship in recent weeks and WWE fans are seemingly expected to believe that the draft split the duo. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Brand-to-Brand Invitational</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/1cmOIEg.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>Back in May, while WWE was struggling with roster issues during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the company introduced a new rule which was a spin on the original Wild Card Rule. </p>



<p>It was revealed that any superstar could represent their brand on the oppositie brand up to four times a year and this then opened the door to a number of WWE stars to make the move over to the other brand and step into feuds with fellow stars. </p>



<p>After the invitational was seemingly phased out, <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/wwe-brand-invitational-returns-champions-083429264.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">the rule made a return in September</a> when Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura invaded Monday Night Raw to send a message to The Street Profits. It was during this segment that Cesaro noted that the Brand to Brand invitational was being brought back quarterly. Despite this, since the WWE Draft, it doesn&#8217;t appear as though any stars have felt the need to jump rosters except as part of the build-up to Survivor Series.  </p>



<p>At present it doesn&#8217;t appear as though the brand to brand invitational is a rule in WWE, it was just a way for the company to cover roster several gaps caused early in the year. </p>



<p>Despite this, WWE could bring back the invitational at any time, much like back in September, but the rules would have to be a little different. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Fiend vs Roman Reigns </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/rdNLKpJ.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>There have been several stop/start feuds with Roman Reigns since he made his WWE return and turned heel, one of these was when Alexa Bliss made it appear as though The Fiend would be targeting Roman Reigns on an episode of SmackDown back in September. This later didn&#8217;t happen because The Fiend was drafted over to Raw. </p>



<p>Alexa Bliss joining The Fiend was a fantastic move from WWE since it has allowed the former Women&#8217;s Champion to show off her acting skills and even help The Fiend move forward. Bliss has been part of several of The Fiend&#8217;s recent feuds and was the one who was hinting that she would be going after Roman Reigns earlier in the year. </p>



<p>Reigns has since stepped into a feud with Kevin Owens, even though a feud with Daniel Bryan was already ready-made. Reports suggest that WWE decided that Owens would be a better option for TLC, and Bryan&#8217;s story with Reigns could then be picked up again at the beginning of 2021. It&#8217;s believed that Reigns will take on Daniel Bryan at The 2021 Royal Rumble. </p>



<p>Hopefully, the feud between Roman Reigns and The Fiend that WWE revisits in the future since The Fiend was Universal Champion ahead of Reigns&#8217; return to WWE and would have a legitimate reason to target The Tribal Chief. At present, it would be difficult since the two stars are on different brands and Reigns looks as though he has several challengers for his Universal Championship standing in his way in 2021. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Liv Morgan and Lana &#8211; Lesbian Angle </h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://i.imgur.com/sTSextg.jpg" alt=""/></figure>



<p>The beginning of 2020 saw <a href="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/news/wwe-raw-liv-morgan-returns-and-crashes-lana-wedding-opens-new-storyline/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Liv Morgan make her return to WWE</a> as part of an angle with Lana. Interestingly, Lana was part of a storyline with Bobby Lashley at the time, where she had divorced Rusev and gone on to marry Bobby Lashley. It was as part of their wedding that Liv Morgan came out to make her announcement which shocked the WWE Universe and led to a feud between Liv and Lana. </p>



<p>After just a few weeks, the storyline came to an abrupt end and Lashley then decided that Lana was no longer the woman he wanted to cling to, before requesting a divorce. </p>



<p>Bobby Lashley then became one of MVP&#8217;s recruits and is now the United States Champion and the CEO of The Hurt Business. Lana has since moved on to her own storyline where she developed a relationship with the announce tables, before being written off TV for a number of weeks. </p>



<p>Interestingly, Bobby Lashley and Lana haven&#8217;t crossed paths since, and their divorce wasn&#8217;t even revealed to have been finalized. Lana just moved on to a partnership with Natalya while Lashley partnered MVP. </p>



<p>Liv Morgan was drafted over to SmackDOwn where she has been partnered with Ruby Riott and the two women have reformed The Riott Squad without Sarah Logan. Morgan herself recently noted that WWE could revisit the angle in the future, this could be something that the network is looking for since it was recently revealed that The USA Network wnt more &#8220;adult content.&#8221; </p>
