• Bryan Danielson Reacts To The Rock’s 60 Lbs Weight Loss

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson showed up at the Venice Film Festival looking very lean. According to reports, he has lost 60 lbs for a new movie role. Below are a couple of videos:

During an interview with Jon-Bernard Kairouz, AEW star Bryan Danielson was asked about The Rock’s new look. Here’s what the former WWE & AEW World Champion said:

“He looks great. I think he looks great. He might just wanna live longer. You never know what kind of injuries he has or because he’s an actor, he could just be getting ready for a role.

But do you know what’s funny? He’s super handsome, right? It looked like to me when I saw the picture in comparison to the rest of his body – now it looks like he has a big head.

Guess what Rock? You’re not so handsome anymore! How does it feel… I mean he’s still obviously much more handsome than me, but how does it feel to not be as handsome as you used to be? Yeah, take that!

Didn’t it look like a big head? It did look like. And it might just be that we never noticed because he was so jacked, he just always had this giant head.”

• Former WWE Star Returns To TNA After 9 Years

At today’s TNA iMPACT TV tapings in Minneapolis, former 2-time TNA World Heavyweight Champion Ken Anderson (Mr. Kennedy in WWE) made a shocking return to TNA after a 9-year absence.

The return unfolded at The Armory in Minneapolis – right on Anderson’s home turf. In a promo led by Frankie Kazarian, Anderson was introduced to TNA audience for the first time since January 2016.

His surprise appearance was heightened by a storyline exchange; Kazarian mocked Steve Maclin’s military background, prompting Anderson, a National Guard member himself, to enter the fray. That led to a brawl involving Jake Something, before Maclin rushed in for the save.

Anderson went on to team with Maclin to defeat the team of Jake Something and Frankie Kazarian. The victory instantly threw Anderson into the current TNA narrative, including positioning him for a potential role in the upcoming Bound for Glory event.

• “I wouldn’t be opposed to it” – Top AEW Star On A Potential WWE Return

It has been a while since Chris Jericho was seen on AEW TV. He last appeared on the April 9th episode of Dynamite, where he expressed his frustration towards Big Bill and Bryan Keith after losing the ROH World Championship.

Rumors have surfaced online in recent weeks that the former AEW World Champion’s contract with Tony Khan’s promotion is set to expire in December 2025. He also liked an Instagram post stating that he would be “open to returning to WWE depending on the situation”, which sparked speculation about a potential comeback.

In an interview with Daily Mail, Jericho was asked about him going back to WWE. Below is what he replied:

“The best thing that can happen in wrestling is AEW, and the fact that there’s two huge promotions that you can choose from just makes it better for the guys, it makes it better for the fans and everybody in between, so I’m not going anywhere for a while.

I’m still with AEW for right now. Would I go back to WWE? I wouldn’t be opposed to it, we just have to see what happens, but the best thing that can happen is you have two great teams that you can play for, and that just makes everything bigger and more exciting.”

Chris Jericho last appeared on WWE programming at The Greatest Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia in 2018. WWE will head to the kingdom for next year’s Royal Rumble, just a month after Jericho’s AEW contract expires.

• Wade Barrett Addresses WWE Future After Speculation Over Nikki Bella Drama

At WWE Clash In Paris, Wade Barrett questioned if Nikki Bella belonged with today’s female stars and talked about how much Women’s wrestling had progressed since she was on top during the Divas era.

The WWE Hall of Famer wasn’t thrilled with the former Intercontinental Champion’s comments. A few days after her response, Barrett was taken off SmackDown’s commentary team, and reports surfaced online stating that he was going to be “off the road” for a while.

Barrett took to X deny the reports and revealed that he had a vacation planned months ago.

“I usually ignore BS reports like this, but it’s causing needless hate to be spewed towards people I work with.

WWE have kindly given me a couple of weeks off for personal time (booked nine months ago), and then I’m back to business as usual. A complete non-story. The end.”

On Friday, Wade Barrett had tweeted that he had sorted things out with Nikki Bella after she claimed that he was avoiding her on RAW.
