"That's where this is going": Dave Meltzer doesn't hold back on the future of WWE
Dave Meltzer (Image via YouTube) Dave Meltzer is a renowned name in the world of wrestling, having been associated with it for decades. The sports historian and wrestling journalist has been the publisher and editor of Wrestling Observer Newsletter, known to everyone as WON, since 1983, and has made his reputation into something revered, especially in the world of sports journalism. So when he shares his opinion, it's bound to have listeners. And his latest take on how advertising is taking over wrestling is one of those. Dave Meltzer's take on advertising in WWE Dave Meltzer says it like he sees it. He has not been called "the most accomplished reporter in sports journalism" just because he can cover a story well. He has been in this industry for long enough to know when and how things begin to make an impact. And recently, he spoke of how advertising is becoming a big part of WWE , maybe more than it should. A recent post on his dirtsheet read: 'I expect ads on ring gear soon. Seriously. That's not a joke. That's where this is going. There's no limit to it. If there's a blank space on screen, TKO wants to monetize it.' With the way TKO Holdings has been monetizing the WWE is something quite a few people have spoken about. The parent company that runs the WWE is profit-minded like any other, and advertisements have been a big part of that. Maybe Meltzer's view is not too far off, as they have already been using ads on the ring and the screens. Maybe ring gears are next; who knows! Fans react to Dave Meltzer's latest take Fans are, of course, quick to make memes and add funny anecdotes to anything that happens. The Internet did its thing this time around as well, and as soon as the Wrestling Observer Newsletter post went online, WWE fans made sure to share their thoughts on the matter. From people saying it's just the way of the corporate, to some criticizing TKO, everyone had a cent to add to the conversation. While the chicken wing Dom idea is funny, is this really where wrestling is moving towards? What do the fans really have to say about this?

Recalling John Cena's bombshell announcement at Money in the Bank 2024 before his upcoming tag team extravaganza at the 2025 mega-event
John Cena (Image via X) John Cena is one of the biggest names in the world of wrestling and now, even in Hollywood. The record-breaking superstar is currently on his WWE Farewell Tour, ready to take a step back from the ring and focus more on his acting commitments. He will next be seen at the 2025 Money in the Bank PPE, which will be held tonight, June 7, at the Inuit Dome in California for a thrilling tag team match. But before that, let's take a look back at the same event from last year when John Cena made an announcement that shook the fans completely. John Cena's retirement announcement happened a year ago at Money in the Bank 2024 It was a star-filled night at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on July 6, 2024. Trish Stratus hosted the explosive event where stars from the Stamford-based promotion came together to deliver some powerful performances. RAW's Drew McIntyre and SmackDown's Tiffany Stratton won the men's and women's Money in the Bank ladder matches. And in between all the nerve-wracking moments, John Cena made a special appearance to announce that he would be retiring from wrestling. He said: "Tonight, I officially announce my retirement from WWE... Thank you so much for allowing me the opportunity to play in a house that you guys built for so many years. Thank you so much for your voice because it's really loud and for your honesty because it's always brutal." John Cena announces he will retire in 2025: Money in the Bank 2024 highlights He announced that 2025 would be his last year as an in-ring performer, but also said that didn't mean he was leaving WWE for good, as it would always be a part of his life and legacy. The 17-time WWE Champion was seen entering the ring with a towel in hand that read a modified version of his renowned catchphrase, "My Time Is Now." It became "The Last Time Is Now," the phrase he has been using all throughout his Farewell Tour as of now. John Cena is coming to Money in the Bank 2025 for a fiery tag team match John Cena will team up with Logan Paul for yet another explosive match, this time a tag-team one, to face none other than Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso . He had lost to Uso earlier this year at the WWE Royal Rumble, becoming the last person to be eliminated out of the ring, making Jey Uso the champion. He then won the Men's Elimination Chamber match which led him to face Cody Rhodes at the 2025 WrestleMania. He turned heel, won the match, and took the Undisputed title from his opponent. And since then, it's been a brand new John Cena that fans have been witnessing. He was last present at the last Saturday Night Main Event show, where he attacked Uso during his match against Paul. Rhodes made his comeback as well, and now fans cannot wait to see what they have in store for Money in the Bank.
