The New Day may not be everyone's favorites right now, but they've made history once again at WrestleMania 41.
In a match against The War Raiders for the WWE World Tag Team Championships, the group once again captured the titles, breaking their own historic record. In the match, the group would utilize some underhanded tactics to win. After hitting a big stomp on the Raiders, Woods went for the pin, while Kofi — who had slid out of the ring — held down Ivar's legs.
Unable to kick out, the referee counted to three, and The New Day were champions again. The group quickly took the belts and immediately ran out of the ring and up the ramp. A stunned War Raiders could only watch as The New Day celebrated their historic win at the top of the ramp.

Important Name Forced To Intervene In Bringing R-Truth Back To WWE
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. On June 1, 2025, Ron "R-Truth" Killings announced on social media that WWE was not renewing his contract. The news sparked an immediate and widespread backlash from fans and talent alike, with the hashtag #WeWantTruth trending globally. Just days later, at Money in the Bank, Killings made a shocking return by attacking John Cena during the main event. This sudden reversal left many wondering if his departure had been a storyline all along. In the post-show press conference, WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque added to the confusion. When asked about the situation, he simply stated, "All part of the show." However, Killings' own son, Christopher, quickly refuted that claim in a since-deleted social media post, calling the comment "cap." That means no. More news: WWE News: Steve Austin Reveals Real-Life Vince McMahon Confrontation A new report from Fightful Select has provided more evidence that the situation was not a planned storyline. A WWE higher-up confirmed the sequence of events, stating that Truth's initial departure was legitimate. INGLEWOOD, CALIFORNIA - JANUARY 06: R-Truth attends Netflix's Debut of WWE Monday Night Raw at Intuit Dome on January 06, 2025 in Inglewood, California INGLEWOOD, CALIFORNIA - JANUARY 06: R-Truth attends Netflix's Debut of WWE Monday Night Raw at Intuit Dome on January 06, 2025 in Inglewood, California According to the report, when WWE initially reached out to Killings for a return, he "didn't seem to entertain the calls." The dynamic changed only when WWE President Nick Khan personally took over the negotiations. It was noted that it is "rare that Nick Khan gets involved in negotiations." The higher-up emphasized that "this one was important to the company and locker room." Bringing Killings back was viewed internally as a "good sign that the roster and fan response being listened to overcame everything else." Unsurprisingly, the WWE roster is said to be "ecstatic" about his return. The report also states that when other talent asked Killings or WWE management directly, they were told the situation was not a work. This aligns with comments from people close to his family, who indicated the new deal was finalized very late in the week. The shift to using his real name, Ron Killings, is also part of the new direction. A source in WWE management noted that Killings "had indicated in the past that he wanted to have at least more of a serious run in-ring before ending his career." His value was clear, as promotions like TNA and GCW were immediately interested in booking him upon news of his availability. This leverage likely contributed to the urgency of WWE's efforts to re-sign him. More WWE News: For more on WWE, head to Newsweek Sports.

Vince McMahon Sells $250 Million of TKO Shares to Endeavor Group Holdings
Vince McMahon has sold a big tranche of his stock in TKO Group to Endeavor Group Holdings, the majority shareholder of the parent company of WWE and UFC. On June 3, 2025, Endeavor Group Holdings — now a privately held company that is the parent company of WME Group — entered into an agreement to purchase 1.579 million shares of TKO's Class A common stock from McMahon in a private transaction at a per-share price of $158.32 for aggregate consideration of approximately $250 million, according to an SEC filing Wednesday. The transaction closed on June 4, according to the filing. McMahon is the former CEO of WWE who sold the wrestling entertainment company to Endeavor in 2023 to form TKO. More from Variety Ex-WWE Employee Who Accused Vince McMahon of Sexual Abuse Reaches Settlement With Former Exec John Laurinaitis AEW Commentator Jim Ross Announces Colon Cancer Diagnosis: 'I Appreciate Your Concern and Support' CW Boss on NXT's Move to the Broadcast Network: 'It's Been an Absolute Game Changer' Endeavor Group now owns 61.7% of TKO's outstanding stock, per an ownership disclosure filed with the SEC Wednesday. Endeavor was taken private earlier this year in a $25 billion deal with private-equity firm Silver Lake. As of April 15, 2025, McMahon owned about 8 million TKO shares, representing a 9.8% economic stake in the company and voting power of 4.1%, according to TKO's most recent 10-K. With the latest stock sale, McMahon has now sold more than $2 billion worth of TKO shares to date. That included his stock sales to TKO and Endeavor worth $311.2 million in April 2024. McMahon had joined the board of TKO Group but resigned as a director in January 2024 in the wake of sexual assault and sex trafficking allegations against him by a former WWE employee as detailed in a civil lawsuit. McMahon has strongly denied the allegations. Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly said Vince McMahon sold TKO shares to WME Group; in fact, McMahon sold the shares to Endeavor Group Holdings, the parent company of WME Group.
