Below are a couple of top WWE & AEW news stories of the day.
• B-Fab competed in her first televised match since February 2024 during a Triple Threat Match in the Women’s United States Championship Tournament on last week’s SmackDown. Her performance has reportedly earned her significant praise from WWE staff and talents, according to Fightful Select.
It’s noted that several individuals watched the match closely from the Gorilla position and backstage, with many recognizing her dedication to improvement.
B-Fab has been training extensively at the New Hart Dungeon under Natalya and Tyson Kidd, becoming one of the training camp’s most regular attendees.
One WWE producer highlighted B-Fab’s work ethic and determination to Fightful: “Her initiative goes a long way. She’s been called up, released, brought back, put with a different group. She’s going above and beyond to make herself as available, useful, and versatile as she can and always has a good attitude.”
Before her SmackDown match, B-Fab also wrestled multiple matches during WWE’s recent UK Live Event tour.
Both talents and agents within WWE are reportedly advocating for B-Fab to receive more opportunities moving forward.

• During an interview with TV Insider, AEW World Champion Jon Moxley talked about ending Bryan Danielson’s full-time career.
Moxley said he felt Bryan was at peace because he knows how much Bryan has gone through physically.
The leader of The Death Riders recalled how banged up Bryan was before WrestleMania 30 in 2014, where he won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the main event:
“I don’t think people understand how much he has gone through physically. I remember the run-up to WrestleMania he headlined. I was with him pretty much every night, and he was banged up. He was getting through it to get there.
A lot of people don’t understand the actual physical toll this could take on your body. I don’t think people knew how much he was suffering. You would never know it by looking at him. I was there and saw and understood what he went through.”
