WWE has posted the final successful title defence of Triple H‘s legendary career in full!

Triple H vs Dean Ambrose for the WWE Championship at Roadblock 2016 has been uploaded in full to the WWE Vault YouTube channel, the former’s final successful title defence of his WWE career.

The match marked the first and only successful title defence of Triple H’s ninth WWE Championship reign. The Game captured the title by winning the 2016 Royal Rumble and went on to lose it to Roman Reigns in the infamous main event of WrestleMania 32.

What did you think of this match at the time? Should Dean Ambrose have dethroned Triple H for a shock WrestleMania twist? Let us know your thoughts!

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson believes he is, in fact, “the good guy” in his feud with Cody Rhodes.

The Rock made the bold claim on his X account during last night’s edition of Raw. Alongside a link to a brand-new video on his YouTube channel, Johnson left a cryptic message for fans.

I love playing the good guy

See ya down the road 🥃

At the time of writing, it’s unknown when The Rock will be returning to WWE programming. His newfound ally John Cena is set to make his return to TV on next week’s Raw in Brussels, Belgium.

WWE has confirmed John Cena‘s first appearance after turning heel at Elimination Chamber.

During his segment on last night’s Raw, Cody Rhodes announced that Cena will make his first WWE appearance since his shocking heel turn on next week’s episode of the red brand in Brussels, Belgium.

Cena was previously announced for the Raw in Belgium, as well as the show’s subsequent episodes in Glasgow, Scotland, and London, England, last month.

It’s unknown exactly what the newly villainous Cena will be doing on next week’s show, though the company is promoting the episode as Rhodes and Cena being under the same roof – suggesting the two will likely interact.

Michael Cole made some light out of his commentary partner Pat McAfee ahead of Raw.

McAfee became embroiled in controversy following Elimination Chamber where he took several out-of-character shots at Canada. His comments came in response to the Toronto crowd booing the US national anthem during the show’s opener.

The WWE Raw commentator later noted that both he and his 1-year-old daughter received death threats over the incident. Thankfully, however, he appears to be in good spirits over the situation.

In a photo posted to Michael Cole’s X before last night’s Raw, McAfee can be seen smiling in Gorilla Position while Canadian WWE producer Bobby Roode gives him the middle finger from behind.

Seth Rollins has weighed in on Travis Scott’s controversial involvement at WWE Elimination Chamber.

The rapper landed in hot water following his latest WWE appearance after reportedly injuring Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes with a legitimate punch. The incident has led some figures in the industry to call Scott out for “taking advantage” of the situation.

Now, one of Rhodes’ long-time rivals has given his thoughts on the matter. Speaking to WFAN, Rollins joked that Scott shouldn’t be in the ring with larger athletes like Rhodes and seemingly shared the opinion that Scott took advantage of The American Nightmare.

I mean look, I have mercy on Travis Scott. That is not a man that needs to be in a wrestling ring with these giant humans [laughs]. No offense to him, but he’s a cruiserweight, brother. You know what I mean?

He can wrestle Rey Mysterio maybe [laughs], but he doesn’t know what he’s doing in there. He just whacked him in the side of the head, gave him a big old bruise, busted him open. Just awful. But if Cody gets his hands on him, it’s done and dusted.

Cody’s not like Braun Strowman, he’s not Andre The Giant. He’s not a massive guy. But he dwarfs Travis Scott. So if he can get through Travis’ team of people, it’s game over for him.

Cody’s a very nice guy, I won’t speak on behalf. But he’s got an undercurrent of frustration in there, especially when he gets taken advantage of in a situation like that, absolutely.
