Jey Uso Betrays Brother To Earn Opportunity at WWE World Heavyweight Championship

Jey Uso Betrays Brother To Earn Opportunity at WWE World Heavyweight Championship

Jey Uso just did what no one saw coming—he turned on his own brother to punch his ticket to the biggest match of his singles career.

On the October 20, 2025 episode of WWE RAW from the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California, WWE kicked things off with RAW General Manager Adam Pearce officially stripping Seth Rollins of the World Heavyweight Championship. With CM Punk already locked in as one-half of the match for the vacant title at Saturday Night’s Main Event on November 1 in Salt Lake City, Utah, a massive battle royal was held to determine his opponent.

The match was stacked with names: LA Knight, AJ Styles, Sheamus, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, Dominik Mysterio, Kofi Kingston, Finn Balor, JD McDonagh, Rusev, and even El Grande Americano. Paul Heyman’s attempt to sneak Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed into the match was shut down cold by Pearce before it began.

As the chaos unfolded, eliminations came fast. Sheamus cleared out Ivar, JD, and Finn before getting tossed by Kofi. Dominik was thrown over the ropes, but snuck back in when the ref wasn’t looking. The final stretch saw Jey and Jimmy Uso, LA Knight, Kofi Kingston, Dominik Mysterio, and AJ Styles as the last six standing.

Kofi was eliminated by Styles, who was then double superkicked and tossed by The Usos. That left the twins and LA Knight—until Jey did the unthinkable. With both Jimmy and LA Knight at the ropes, Jey hurled them out at the same time, betraying his brother in brutal fashion. Just when Dominik Mysterio tried to catch Jey with a 6-1-9, Jey cut him off and threw him over too, clinching the win.

The live crowd erupted as Jey stood tall, and CM Punk, who had been on commentary, now has a clear target in Salt Lake City.

Seth Rollins’ injury forced WWE to shuffle the deck, but now Jey Uso has stepped into the spotlight—and he did it by sacrificing his own blood to get there.

Was Jey Uso right to throw his brother over the top rope, or should family always come first—even in WWE? Drop your thoughts in the comments and let us know what you think.

Nikki Bella Aligns With Stephanie Vaquer During Surprise WWE Return On 10/20 RAW

Nikki Bella Aligns With Stephanie Vaquer During Surprise WWE Return On 10/20 RAW

You never know who will show up next on WWE television, because they have a large roster and a list of legends who would love a call. This week on RAW, we saw the leader of the Bella Army make her return.

WWE Raw went down on October 20, at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California. Stephanie Vaquer was on the scene to take on Roxanne Perez, but her night wasn’t over after the match.

Stephanie Vaquer and Roxanne Perez battled for a good match. The two former NXT Women’s Champions fought hard to top each other, and their match received two commercial breaks.

After Vaquer was able to fight off both Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez, she won with an Angel’s Wings. As Stephanie Vaquer celebrated, Raquel jumped her and then Perez started laying in the boots. Suddenly, Nikki Bella made her way out to the ring to help the Women’s World Champion out.

After a bit of a fight, Nikki Bella and Stephanie Vaquer were left standing tall. Then her and Stephanie hugged. During a backstage segment after that, Nikki Bella explained that she wasn’t going to let two sore losers jump her like that. She gave Stephanie Vaquer credit for taking the women’s division to the next level. She advised her that this puts a big target on her back, because anyone can take her out, and Nikki said she wishes someone would have given her the same advice when she was champion.

We will have to see what happens next in this situation, but Nikki and Stephanie seem to be very friendly. Only time will tell what kind of match gets booked out of this angle.

Nikki Bella is back in WWE, but she doesn’t wrestle as often as she used to. Her most recent WWE match took place on the September 8, 2025 episode of WWE RAW at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She faced Asuka in a singles match. Asuka won the match, and since then, Nikki Bella has not returned to in-ring competition. That is apparently going to change.

Paul Heyman Humiliated by Becky Lynch After Sleazy Recruitment Pitch During 10/20 WWE RAW

Paul Heyman Humiliated by Becky Lynch After Sleazy Recruitment Pitch During 10/20 WWE RAW

Paul Heyman just got slapped with a verbal KO from Becky Lynch—and it happened live on RAW in front of the world.

On the October 20, 2025 episode of WWE RAW at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California, Heyman attempted to spin one of his trademark manipulations. After Becky Lynch retained her WWE Women’s Intercontinental Title in a controversial match against Maxxine Dupri, she ran into Heyman backstage—and that’s when things got weird.

Heyman, clearly frustrated after Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker were removed from the #1 contender battle royal, decided to pitch Lynch on joining The Vision. That’s the same faction that turned on her husband, Seth Rollins, just one week earlier—resulting in Rollins being stripped of the World Heavyweight Championship due to injury.

Heyman tried to sell her on the idea of aligning with The Vision by dangling a bizarre offer. He told Lynch she could have “a hot husband at home and an adorable Oracle on the road.”

Lynch didn’t flinch. She instantly fired back, calling Heyman a “penguin-faced prick.” She made it crystal clear that she never liked Heyman and didn’t trust him. Lynch even admitted that she and Rollins expected Heyman to turn on them eventually—they were just shocked it took as long as it did.

Then came the warning. Becky looked Heyman dead in the eye and made one thing clear: when Seth Rollins returns, his first target will be The Oracle.

This was the last thing Heyman needed on a night where his faction was already losing momentum. Lynch’s dressing down sent a message—not just to Heyman, but to everyone watching—that she’s not going to be manipulated, and she definitely won’t play nice when it comes to her family.

Should Becky Lynch go after The Vision herself, or wait for Seth Rollins to return and finish what they started? Drop your thoughts in the comments below.

Maxxine Dupri Gets Cracked With WWE Title Belt by Becky Lynch in Dirty RAW Finish

Maxxine Dupri Gets Cracked With WWE Title Belt by Becky Lynch in Dirty RAW Finish

Becky Lynch made sure her WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship stayed in her hands on the October 20th edition of RAW—but the way she did it left fans furious.

Live from the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California, Lynch defended her title against Maxxine Dupri. The challenger came in hungry, pushing the pace early with roll‑up attempts and surviving Lynch’s offense through a commercial break. Dupri even connected with a big kick and locked in an ankle lock, giving fans the sense that an upset could actually happen.

Lynch escaped and fought back with her own submission, but Dupri countered again with another ankle lock before Becky broke free. That’s when things turned nasty. As Dupri pressed the advantage, Lynch tried walking out with her belt to force a count‑out. Dupri cut her off and nearly scored another surprise pin with a roll‑up. But in a flash, Becky swung the Women’s Intercontinental Championship straight into the back of Dupri’s head. The referee had no choice but to call for the disqualification.

After the bell, Lynch didn’t stop. She pounded away on Dupri in the ring as the Sacramento crowd booed heavily. The champ then strutted up the aisle with her belt while Dupri was left laid out.

This was Becky Lynch at her dirtiest, refusing to let go of her title the same way her husband Seth Rollins had to earlier in the night. For Maxxine Dupri, the ending robbed her of the biggest win of her WWE career so far.

Do you think Becky Lynch’s dirty tactics are making her run more entertaining, or is it time someone knocks her off that pedestal? Let us know in the comments below.

Dominik Mysterio Defeats Rusev in Controversial Finish During October 20 WWE RAW

Dominik Mysterio Defeats Rusev in Controversial Finish During October 20 WWE RAW

Few WWE Superstars have been as dirty as Dominik Mysterio, but then again, there has never been anyone to proclaim themselves as “dirty” like him. He proved that, yet again, this week as Rey Mysterio’s son retained his title on RAW.

WWE Raw went down on October 20, at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California. The night included a couple of title matches as well.

Rusev has been trying his best to get his footing in WWE since his return. During RAW this week, the Bulgarian Brute had a chance to get his hands on Dominik Mysterio and the IC Title.

This was an interesting title match to watch, especially considering the fact that WWE is toying with the idea of giving John Cena a run with that belt.

This match went down right after Dominik Mysterio’s Judgment Day brothers lost their Tag Team Titles to AJ Styles and Dragon Lee. As many would expect, Rusev took an early advantage as he beat Dom around the ring.

This match stretched through a commercial break, and then Penta showed up at ringside to distract Dominik Mysterio. That prevented Dom from escaping. Then Penta got in Rusev’s face, and the Bulgarian Brute knocked him out. They returned to the ring and Rusev stopped Dom from hitting a 6-1-9 and using the timekeeper’s hammer. The referee was distracted by the hammer and Dom nailed a lowblow, a 6-1-9 and a frog splash to retain the title once again.

What’s your take on how the IC Title has been booked with Dominik Mysterio? Do you think that Mysterio makes a good champion? Let us know what you think in the comments section!

AJ Styles & Dragon Lee Win Tag Team Titles During 10/20 WWE RAW

AJ Styles & Dragon Lee Win Tag Team Titles During 10/20 WWE RAW

Title runs are never forever in WWE, just ask Seth Rollins, and this week’s RAW saw a lot of movement in the title scene. Now we have new tag team champions on the red brand.

WWE Raw went down on October 20, at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California. The night included a surprising title change.

Dominik Mysterio was running his mouth last week about how he has to defend the IC Title against Rusev this week. Then Adam Pearce booked a Tag Team Title match for his Judgment Day brethren.

This week on RAW, Dragon Lee and AJ Styles had a shot at the WWE Tag Team Titles, and they took it. After a great back-and-forth match, AJ Styles got the Styles Clash on Finn Balor in the middle of the ring, and he got a clean pinfall.

AJ Styles and Dragon Lee celebrated their big win after that, and WWE even set off some pyro. Needless to say, this was a hard-fought win, and the Judgment Day are now lighter by two title belts.

AJ Styles will be retiring in 2026, so this will be quite a note on his WWE resume. Only time will tell what happens next, but we will have all the headlines you need at Ringside News.

What’s your take on AJ Styles and Dragon Lee winning the tag team titles on RAW this week? Do you think they will hold the titles for long? Let us know what you think in the comments section!

Seth Rollins Stripped Of WWE World Heavyweight Title During 10/20 RAW

Seth Rollins Stripped Of WWE World Heavyweight Title During 10/20 RAW

Seth Rollins is officially no longer the WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

The October 20, 2025 episode of WWE RAW opened with General Manager Adam Pearce standing in the ring at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California. But before Pearce could address the crowd, Bron Breakker appeared backstage holding the World Heavyweight Title over his shoulder—flanked by Bronson Reed and Paul Heyman.

The trio made their way to the ring, and that’s when Pearce finally confirmed what fans had been speculating for days: Seth Rollins is out with a serious injury. Pearce stated that Rollins underwent major surgery and would be sidelined for the foreseeable future.

With that confirmation, Pearce declared that the WWE World Heavyweight Championship was now vacated. He announced that a new champion will be crowned at Saturday Night’s Main Event on November 1 in Salt Lake City. CM Punk is already locked in for that title match, and he’ll face the winner of an upcoming over-the-top-rope battle royal.

Bron Breakker didn’t give up the title easily, but Pearce eventually got it back before leaving the ring. Paul Heyman stayed behind and delivered a promo on behalf of Breakker and Reed, making it clear they still had big plans despite the shift in power.

The shakeup was triggered on the October 13 episode of RAW, when The Vision—Rollins, Breakker, and Reed’s faction—imploded. After CM Punk defeated Jey Uso and LA Knight to become #1 contender, Breakker ambushed Rollins with a spear. Reed then took out Punk with a Tsunami, and Heyman entered the ring to raise both men’s arms. That was the moment Breakker picked up Rollins’ World Heavyweight Title—setting in motion what unfolded one week later.

This title vacancy marks a major reset for WWE. With Rollins on the shelf after shoulder surgery and The Vision now fractured, the company has been forced to pivot. What started as a power trio destined to run RAW has unraveled fast.

Was stripping Seth Rollins the right move, or should WWE have handled this situation differently? Sound off in the comments and let us know what you think.

John Cena Stops By WWE Performance Center During Retirement Tour

John Cena Stops By WWE Performance Center During Retirement Tour

John Cena is all about giving back to the business that helped turn him into a global megastar. He has been around the WWE Performance Center several times over the years, but this retirement run is a special time for him

The Greatest of All Time showed up at the WWE PC and snapped a couple photos with some people he spent time speaking with. He is full of advice, so he’s the perfect person to give any advice he may have.

Blake Monroe posted a photo with John Cena. She didn’t have much of a caption, but she did include a goat emoji. Izzi Dame also posted a photo of herself standing next to John Cena. This was the same setting as the photo the former Mariah May took, but Dame included a bit of a caption to set the tone.

“Always a blessing and such an inspiration getting to sit with John and pick his brain about our business. Grateful for the wisdom and perspective every time!”

John Cena has influenced a ton of people throughout his career. Only time will tell if he ever takes a Performance Center gig, but he has teased the idea in the past.

We will keep a close eye on the rest of John Cena’s career in WWE. The company is apparently toying with the idea of giving him another title run before he departs as well. So, the story is certainly not over for him.

What’s your take on John Cena stopping by the WWE Performance Center? What would you ask Cena if you had one question? Let us know what you think in the comments section!

Sting Makes AEW Return To Help Darby Allin Win I Quit Match At WrestleDream 2025

Sting Makes AEW Return To Help Darby Allin Win I Quit Match At WrestleDream 2025

Tony Khan prepared a big card for WrestleDream. The main event also included a spot that nobody saw coming.

AEW WrestleDream 2025 went down on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at the Chaifetz Arena in Saint Louis, Missouri. The main event of the night wasn’t for a title, but it certainly had huge stakes attached.

AEW fans were treated to quite a show in Saint Louis. After Hangman Page retained the AEW World Title, and Samoa Joe turned heel on him, it was time for the main event.

The night closed out with Jon Moxley and Darby Allin tearing each other apart in an I Quit match. Of course, this was a match neither of them wanted to lose. The fact that it went down in the main event led many fans to assume it would be a gruesome battle.

Jon Moxley made Darby Allin bleed very early on. Then Marina Shafir gave him some skewers, and he proceeded to shove them under Darby’s fingernails. Then he stomped on Darby’s hand while it was on a chair. Still, he didn’t say, “I Quit.”

The match continued, and then it was Darby Allin’s turn to apply punishment for a while. Then Mox beat Darby with a belt for a while. Eventually, Darby got into his bag of toys and then the Death Triangle came down. He fought them off, but then Mox got a taser. Before Mox could get Darby with the taser, Marina Shafir nailed a low blow. So, Mox beat him down a couple of times, got a chair and nailed a Paradigm Shift through the furniture.

Jon Moxley choked Darby Allin out, but he didn’t give up. Then Claudio picked Darby up and heaved him over the top rope through the announce table at ringside. Allin was a literal rag doll at that point as they dragged him around the ring and then Moxley put him through two tables at ringside.

Darby Allin didn’t get up, but he also didn’t give up. The referee checked on him, and Jon Moxley was furious about the fact that the match was still going. He wanted to go home like so many in the building who had already been there for 7 hours already.

The rest of the Death Triangle started filling up a fish tank in the middle of the ring. Then Moxley held Darby Allin’s head under the water over and over again. This was hard to watch and fans were not happy about how things were going in the end of this match.

Suddenly, the lights went out and Sting appeared in the ring. He was rocking a big white beard and white face paint. He choked Jon Moxley out with the baseball bat, and then he fought off the Death Triangle.

Sting carried off Marina Shafir and that left Darby and Moxley alone in the ring. Allin hit Mox with the bat, and then he nailed a neckbreaker before hitting a Coffin Drop and then he got the Scorpian Death Lock on until Moxley gave up.

This was a surprising way to end AEW WrestleDream. At this point, we have to wonder what AEW will pull out next time around.

What’s your take on the main event of AEW WrestleDream? Do you think the finish turned out how you expected? Let us know what you think in the comments section!

Samoa Joe Turns Heel On Hangman Page After AEW WrestleDream Loss

Samoa Joe Turns Heel On Hangman Page After AEW WrestleDream Loss

Adam “Hangman” Page fought hard to get to the top of the mountain in AEW. At WrestleDream, he put himself to the test in a huge way.

AEW WrestleDream 2025 went down on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at the Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, Missouri. You never know what can happen in AEW, and that includes the World Title picture.

Hangman Page walked into AEW WrestleDream as AEW World Champion. Then he put his title on the line against Samoa Joe in a battle that neither of them are going to forget any time soon.

Samoa Joe showed up to Saint Louis to put Hangman Page to the test. He wanted to know what Page had as AEW World Champion, and those questions were answered.

There were a ton of near falls in this hard-hitting match. Samoa Joe and Hangman Page didn’t hold anything back, and fans were 100% with every move in this match.

At one point, Hangman avoided a Muscle Buster to nail a Deadeye, but he only got a two count for that effort. Then Hangman Page was able to nail a Buckshot Lariat for the win to retain the title.

After the match was over, Samoa Joe and his stable got in the ring. Instead of congratulating Hangman, they beat him down. Then Page was set up on the turnbuckle for a Muscle Buster to close out the segment. We will have to see what happens next in this situation, but it appears that Samoa Joe has gone to the dark side.
