Speculations are doing the rounds that WWE is reportedly planning to bring
Trish Stratus
to the upcoming Evolution 2 event, which is scheduled to start on July 13, 2025.

As of the writing of this report, nothing has been confirmed by the company, but it has come to light that multiple creative options are being discussed, and it is expected to make progress on those plans over the next week. Stratus last competed in a high-profile storyline feud with

WWE Unreal OTT release date: When and where to watch the controversial documentary series narrated by Triple H
WWE Unreal OTT release date: WWE Unreal, one of the most eagerly awaited shows of the year, is almost upon us. The documentary series, which features top names from the Samford-based promotion, is set to premiere on Netflix on July 29. It will give fans a closer look at what happens behind the scenes in the company by taking them into the 'writers' room'. WWE Unreal: Who is involved? Triple H, the company's Chief Content Officer, will be the centre of attention of this documentary. The show will highlight The Game's interactions with writers and talent ahead of WrestleMania 41. It will also highlight his plans for advancing major storylines on the road to 'The Showcase of the Immortals'. Moreover, Triple H will serve as the narrator of the series. In the announcement teaser, he was seen telling Jey Uso that WWE wanted to push him heavily. This suggests that the 'Yeet Master', who beat Gunther for the World Heavyweight title at WrestleMania 41, will be part of the Show. The likes of Cody Rhodes, CM Punk and Rhea Ripley too will make appearances in WWE Unreal. Additionally, Xavier Woods and Bianca Belair will be part of WWE Unreal. WWE Unreal consists of five 50-minute episodes. They are titled New Era', 'Push', 'Worth the Wait', 'Heel Turn', and 'WrestleMania'. WWE Unreal has landed in a controversy, here's why Kayfabe (the art of projecting pro wrestling as a legit sport and not a scripted one) has long been the backbone of the industry. However, WWE Unreal shatters the illusion by taking the audience into the writers' room. This hasn't gone down well with key figures in the business. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts recently described WWE Unreal as a 'foolish' endevour, 'I think it's foolish. I don't think that product will ever warrant enough money being made for the damage that it'll do. So that's just my own thoughts,' he said on his Snake Pit Podcast However, former WWE star Ryback defended it and said it would help fans and dirt sheets understand the business. 'I truly believe WWE: Unreal is one of the best things for wrestling and wrestlers. This is physical acting, the hardest thing in the world. We play roles and it takes all of us. No one really wins or loses. It's time fans and dirt sheets stop the hate and understand what this is,' read a part of this post on X (formerly known as Twitter) WWE Unreal is set to premiere on Netflix on July 29

Roman Reigns Receives Big Offer Ahead Of WWE Summerslam. This Happens Next
Days ahead of Summerslam 2025, Roman Reigns declined Paul Heyman's proposal to join his new faction comprising of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, who seek new leadership in the absence of Seth Rollins. Rollins, who currently holds the men's Money in the Bank contract, seemingly injured his ankle during his match against LA Knight at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event earlier this month. However, it is not clear whether Rollins is actually injured as multiple reports have claimed that it might be a production masterclass from the WWE. On the penultimate Monday Night Raw (Tuesday IST) before Summerslam, Reigns went face-to-face with Heyman, who betrayed him, along with Breakker and Reed beside him. The former wiseman, uncharacteristically emotional, told Reigns he still loved his Tribal Chief and believed they could "fix this" together. Reigns, however, wasn't having any of it as he called Heyman a fool, thus rejection his offer to align with Breakker and Reed. The OTC also warned Breakker that Heyman would turn on him just like he did to him and others in the past. "You're not a Wiseman anymore you're just a dumba**," said Reigns. He also accused Heyman of ruining The Bloodline, while also acknowledging the likes of The Usos, Solo Sikoa, and Sami Zayn for helping him throughout his historic title reign. He once again called Heyman a dumba**. The OTC has SPOKEN! — WWE (@WWE) July 22, 2025 A furious Breakker took the mic told Reigns that he is the new top dog in WWE and asked him to do what he does best, "walk away". Reigns calmly handed the mic to Breakker before smashing him with a cheeky Superman Punch, followed by a trademark spear. Reigns tried to deal with both Breakker and Reed at the same time, but the numbers began to overwhelm him. As Reed was about to hit him with a Tsunami, Jey Uso's music hit and he charged to the ring to help out his cousin. The former WWE World Heavyweight Champion hit both Breakker and Reed with a superkick each, allowing Reigns to regroup. Together, they hit dual spears Jey taking out Breakker while Roman crashed into Reed leaving Heyman's faction laid out. When it Reigns, it SPEARS! — WWE (@WWE) July 22, 2025 Reigns was also grooving to the "YEET" chants after he and Jey took out Breakker and Reed.

In the latest episode of WWE Raw, which was streamed live from Houston, Texas, on Monday, July 21, Roman Reigns made his first appearance since his surprise return to the WWE scene after a prolonged break last week. The fans were also glued to the Women's Tag Team Championship Match and an intense No. 1 Contender Triple Threat Match, apart from other exciting battles. Here's how this week's Monday Night Raw shaped up. Roman Reigns Appearance We inched one step closer to the much-anticipated SummerSlam Tag Team battle between the Reigns-Uso pairing and Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker with a thrilling closing segment, where Reigns made his first appearance after a surprise return to the scene last week. Despite the numbers disadvantage, Reigns stood tall against the trio of Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed. The four wrestlers jeered each other before the verbal feud escalated into a physical altercation. Just as Reigns appeared to be outnumbered, Uso arrived and rescued the former Tribal Chief. Sheamus vs. Rusev Reigniting their action-packed rivalry, Sheamus battled out a men's singles contest against Rusev. It was a rematch of their encounter a few weeks earlier. The fans were captivated by the intense exchange between the two wrestlers in the middle of the match. In the dying moments, however, Sheamus came out triumphant after delivering his finisher. LWO Hammer, New Day, and The Creed Brothers Executing a pinfall, LWO won the No. 1 contender triple-threat tag team match against New Day and The Creed Brothers after Joaquin Wilde rolled up Kofi Kingston. The match saw an interruption from El Grande Americano, who ran in to attack Dragon Lee at the ringside before Creed told him to leave. Soon, however, Wilde ended the showdown by executing the schoolboy pin. Raquel Rodriguez & Roxanne Perez (c) vs Bayley & Lyra Valkyria A highly competitive Women's Tag Team Championship match saw Rodriguez and Perez team up against Bayley and Valkyria. The intense but chaotic battle saw multiple interruptions from Dominik Mysterio, who was eventually kicked out by Rodriguez. Even AJ Styles appeared as a medic attempting to revive Mysterio. An interruption also helped the Rodriguez and Perez duo after Becky Lynch ran in and took out Valkyria. The duo then overcame Bayley and retained their tag team titles. Karrion Kross vs Sami Zayn Karrion Kross' exciting duel with Sami Zayn saw the two wrestlers land heavy moves on each other before Kross came out victorious after hitting Zayn in the ribs with a steel pipe. Kross maximised help from Scarlett, who had attempted to hand Kross the pipe earlier in the match. He then executed the pinfall for the winning moment. Stephanie Vaquer vs Iyo Sky In what could've been a thrilling battle, the Vaquer-Sky match had to be disqualified, with Vaquer declared the winner, after interference by Chelsea Green. As the Secret Service came to the ring to distract Vaquer, Green attacked from behind. Sky and Vaquer then managed to toss the group outside the ring to resume their clash. However, Naomi attacked Sky from behind. Rhea Ripley's music started buzzing inside the arena as she attacked Naomi before Vaquer and Sky combined to hit Green.
