WWE wrestler spotted wearing League of Ireland jersey
WWE wrestler Sami Zayn has gone viral after he was spotted wearing a Bohemians jersey during a WWE programme. Bohs turned heads internationally with the launch of their new strip, a sky blue jersey with the Oasis logo on it. Today's top videos STORY CONTINUES BELOW While the team won't be wearing the jerseys until the next round of the cup (which coincides with the band's return to Dublin on week ending August 17), that hasn't stopped them from appearing in other spaces; with Canadian pro wrestler Sami Zayn wearing the jersey in a backstage segment. Advertising his match later on in the night against Karrion Kross, Sami walked into the building stoically, but people couldn't help but recognise the jersey. 'Sami Zayn is Bohs,' the league's official account tweeted, while on Twitter (X), people were just as surprised. 'Does Sami zayn have a bohs shirt on??' one tweeted, while another joked that Sami will face Bray wrestler Finn Bálor next Monday on Raw, with Sami wearing that jersey while Finn wears a Bray Wanderers shirt. Pic: Netflix Sami wrestled on the indies for over a decade before signing for WWE, where he is best known for his work on the independent circuit, including in Ring of Honor and Chikara, as El Generico. When he signed for WWE, he began performing as Sami Zayn (El Generico didn't sign as he was busy building orphanages in Mexico), he won the NXT Championship on the company's then developmental brand NXT, before winning the Intercontinental Championship and tag team championship with his best friend and better enemy Kevin Owens. While he hasn't been advertised for when Smackdown comes to Dublin in August, the company has another Bohs fan in the locker room: namely Sheamus, with the Dubliner having previously worn the red and black stripes. Bohs will be wearing the jersey during their cup games, with them being sponsored by Oasis as the band go on their reunion tour. Pic: Bohemian FC The four-time WWE Champion, who was born in Cabra, also appeared on BohsTV in 2016, talking about his favourite memories in Dalymount — including when he was at a friendly match when Bohs lost 2-0 to Manchester United in 1990.

WWE Evolution 2025 Quick Highlights: List of All Winners, Top Performers, and More
Evolution 2025 (Image via WWE) Evolution 2025, the second edition of the all-women's professional wrestling pay-per-view event, was a night full of some exceptional performances from the women from all divisions of WWE . Female wrestling stars from the RAW, SmackDown, and NXT divisions made sure that this night, which was only for the women, is remembered for all the right reasons, and helps in advancing women's wrestling even more. The State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, lit up in all its glory, and it's all thanks to the women who have been the catalyst in taking women's wrestling to the next level. From an exciting three-way match for the Intercontinental Championship title between Bayley, Lyra Valkyria, and Becky Lynch to the chaotic fatal-4-way tag team championship match to a Battle Royale that saw wrestling greats come together for a shot at Class in Paris to the finale event between IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley , the night was filled with moments that had the fans thrilled. So now, let's take a look at all the winners and top performers of the night. Intercontinental Championship match In a fiery three-way match between Bayley, Lyra Valkyria, and Becky Lynch, the Intercontinental Championship belt was up for grabs. There were plenty of near falls and near wins, but one or the other kept interrupting before anyone could take the win. At the end, Lynch retained her title by pinning Bayley and getting the win. NXT Women's Championship match The audience was already fired up after the inaugural match before Jacy Jayne and Jordynne Grace entered the ring for the NXT Women's Championship title. While Grace looked to have the upper hand for most of the match, Jayne managed to take the win by using the belt as a weapon and using it on her opponent for a pinfall. And everyone saw Blake Monroe turn heel, right? WWE Women's Tag Team Championship Fatal 4-Way match Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss , Asuka and Kairi Sane, Sol Ruca and Zairi, and the current Tag team champions, Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez, put on an amazing show for the fans as the night of Evolution progressed. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo It was the Judgement Day members, though, who managed to continue their tag team domination and retain their title by winning by pinfall. WWE Women's Championship match Tiffany Stratton and WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus came together for an exciting showdown for the Women's Championship belt. Stratus challenged her one-time tag team partner - Stratton, the current title holder, for the championship. And while Stratton managed to retain her title by defeating Stratus, it was the latter who emerged as the star of the show, as the crowd cheered her on even after she lost the match. No Holds Barred match Jade Cargill and Naomi were going to be explosive and that's exactly what they brought into the ring. The weapons came in as soon as the match began and the rivals went at it, taking out all their anger and frustration at each other. Bianca Belair, the special guest referee, felt a little out of place, but the two opponents made sure that all eyes were on them. At the end, Cargill hit Naomi with a Jaded from the top rope through a table, and won the match via pinfall. Battle Royal With many wrestlers inside the ring, it was bound to get chaotic even before the match began. Nikki Bella , alongside Nia Jax and Stephanie Vaquer, were top contenders to win the match, and were actually the last four inside the ring alongside Lash. Finally, the win went to Vaquer, who used her Devil's Kiss to eliminate Lash at the end and win herself a shot at Clash in Paris in August. Women's World Championship match They really left the beat for the last, as IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley came together for a gruelling but classic match that had everyone guessing till the end. With moments of magic all through the fight, Ripley would have won the match had the referee not been knocked out. But the final twist came with Naomi cashing in her Money in the Bank briefcase, and taking advantage of battered and bruised Ripley and SKY after a 26-minute-long bout. She threw Ripley out of the ring and did a split-legged moonsault on SKY for the pin and win.

The dramatic table spot served as a fitting exclamation point to a physical, well-executed bout that further solidified Cargill's dominance. ADVERTISEMENT Stephanie Vaquer wins the Battle RoyalStephanie Vaquer sealed her Battle Royal victory in thrilling fashion.

In a dramatic final sequence, Vaquer landed another perfectly timed Devil's Kiss, rolling Legend off the apron for the win. An absurd, over-the-top finish - in the best possible way.

Rey Mysterio vs. Dominik Mysterio: Net Worth Comparision, Current Salary, Contract Status and More
Rey Mysterio vs. Dominik Mysterio (Image Source: Getty) Both Rey Mysterio and his son Dominik Mysterio have made it to WWE, but their paths could not be more different. Rey has been a pro for over 30 years, while Dominik has made a name for himself after debuting in 2020. With both of them practically staples now on WWE programming, it kind of has everyone wondering exactly how well the duo is doing, what they're getting, and on what sort of deal. Here is a complete breakdown of how father and son go head-to-head. Rey Mysterio's finances and contract status Rey Mysterio's current net worth as of 2025 can be estimated to be around $10 million. A lot of this wealth comes from his decades of interning in WCW, WWE, and other global organizations. He has a base salary with WWE of around $174,000 a year, along with additional income from sales of merchandise, licensing deals, and bonuses from special events. Rey is still active and still signed to WWE in the SmackDown brand, even as a WWE Hall of Famer. He is under contract through at least the middle of 2025. Dominik Mysterio's wealth, salary, and contract update Dominik Mysterio, despite being a relative newcomer to WWE, had built an estimated fortune of approximately $2 million. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 드디어! 2025년 최고의 전략 게임을 무료로 플레이하세요! Raid: Shadow Legends 플레이하기 Undo His yearly salary, now around $350,000, indicates his growing worth on the WWE roster. Especially after he won the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 41, Dominik, with the increase in pay-per-view bonuses and merchandise sold, has made a considerable amount of money. By his return in 2023, Dominik had signed a new WWE contract that is speculated to extend over a multi-year period, which may see him with the company until or around 2028. While specific details aren't immediately available, his new deal probably features performance incentives and a few increases at strategic points along the way. Dominik lives in Chula Vista (in the upscale part that Rey lives in) and owns the BMW 3 Series and BMW i8 (in the alias sets). Oddly enough, Dominik's earnings from wrestling go back to when he was just a child. He earned around $5,000 per segment, reportedly, when he was used early on in storylines in the mid-2000s. Final comparison and what lies ahead Rey Mysterio is still the richer of the two, with decades of experience and a name that keeps raking in the coin on T-shirts and brand deals. Dominik, however, is still getting started. That base salary is also higher than expected, but WWE is investing in his future as a superstar. Also Read: Good news for WWE star Dominik Mysterio as father Rey Mysterio says retirement is 'really close' With Dominik continuing to establish his name and earn accolades, he has a good chance of making even more than his father one day. Besides, for now, Rey is king when it comes to legacy, net or otherwise, in the Mysterio family. Game On Season 1 continues with Mirabai Chanu's inspiring story. Watch Episode 2 here.
