• WWE’s Response Revealed After Becky Lynch Alleged A Wrestler Was Blacklisting Women Who Didn’t Sleep With Him
Before WWE’s women’s revolution, the backstage environment wasn’t easy for female talent. Opportunities were limited, and navigating locker room politics often posed significant challenges for women trying to succeed.
Becky Lynch recently revealed that she was specifically warned about a male wrestler on the main roster who allegedly tried to sleep with female talent.
According to the former Women’s Champion, if a woman didn’t comply, he would blacklist her, and even if she did, he would still end up blacklisting her.
Fightful Select reports that none of the talent they spoke with could confirm the identity of the wrestler Lynch referenced. WWE has reportedly considered looking into the matter, but no updates have emerged regarding any investigation.
• John Cena Reveals Original Plan For His Retirement Tour
During his appearance on The Bill Simmons Podcast, John Cena revealed that he originally wanted to work 220 dates on his WWE retirement tour this year.
Here’s what the 17-time World Champion said:
“‘Hey man, 36 dates must have been easy this year.’ I did too many jobs. I was in Budapest, flying to Indy, do Indy, fly back, land, go film. Doing that until post-WrestleMania. Back and forth to Morocco, Budapest, all these crazy places that weren’t easy commutes.
You think you can do it, ‘I’ll sleep on the plane.’ You don’t. It doesn’t happen. Then, you get upside down and you’re super fatigued. I threaded the needle just enough.
The plan, originally, was to do a full year. This goes to show my ignorance of the business. I wanted to do 220 dates.
Just take the year off from everything, hop on a bus, do a full WWE calendar, and totally say goodbye.
Thank goodness the business isn’t like that anymore. I’d be done. They only needed me for 36.”
