Our Tribal Chief and Greatest Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns 👑 🇼🇸 ☝🏾🤙🏾🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Great episode of WWE Rivals. The journey Roman went on to become the Tribal Chief definitely wasn't easy and he feels it was worth it. He's right, just look at the results: The man is currently on one of the most historic runs in WWE history.
Tumblr media
Even though you can't deny their chemistry, it was hard to watch this rivalry in the beginning Brock brutally dominating Roman and it seemed like he would never conquer the Beast but it finally happened in 2018 at SummerSlam (yet he had to relinquish the title because of health reasons when he revealed he was battling leukemia for a second time on October 22, 2018.)
Tumblr media
He made his triumphant return on February 25, 2019 to joyfully announce
Tumblr media
that he was in remission. 🤗🙂
After coming back from hiatus because of COVID-19 Roman was determined to win the title he never lost and shocked everyone by aligning with the former advocate now Tribal Counsel Paul Heyman. 😈
Tumblr media
Roman was no longer the Big Dog he is now The Head of the Table, The Tribal Chief and you will "Acknowledge Him." 😈
Tumblr media
The most surprising thing about this episode to me was Brock Lesnar who rarely compliments anyone said that our Tribal Chief is a special talent. Yes he is Brock, yes he is. ☝🏾
Brock has actually grown to respect and even like Roman. You could see that he really enjoyed working with him as rivals since Brock returned at SummerSlam 2021.

Wrestling Love Letters
Fireflies in the Dark: A Tribute to Bray Wyatt
Tumblr media
I wasn’t going to write today.
But then we lost Bray.
There are some performers who transcend the ring and become more than just athletes. Bray’s mystique and captivating storytelling, undoubtedly made him one of those figures. His unexpected passing has left our community mourning the loss of one of our great wrestling minds who managed to weave enchanting narratives that gripped wrestling fans worldwide.
Bray used the canvas like a true artist, painting his stories with the strokes of a genius. He was the cult leader I would have followed willingly, especially during an "era of lies" where authenticity seemed scarce. In moments when watching WWE grew challenging, his segments became my refuge – a place to immerse myself and search for hidden gems within his narrative. The most recent version of Bray walked down that ramp every week and relayed the same message, and yet, we were still right there, in the palm of his hands. This wasn't just charisma; it was a connection that few could forge. He was an inspiration to anyone who has lost their way, a guiding light amidst the darkness.
Many likened him to the Undertaker but, for me, he was this generations Mick Foley. A man of many faces, he was a unique fusion of wrestling brilliance and raw charisma. The juxtaposition of his eerie presence with a touch of humanity made him a character like few others. My favourite Bray, Firefly Funhouse Bray, was Mr. Rogers-esque, a blend of warmth and macabre that shouldn't have worked, but did – brilliantly.
The night he won the WWE Championship at Elimination Chamber (2017) is etched into my memory – a moment of triumph that stood as a testament to his talent and dedication. I can vividly recall the chills that ran down my spine as I witnessed The Fiend's debut at Summerslam (2019). The classic horror ambiance he effortlessly created became a hallmark of his performances. The Firefly Funhouse match vs John Cena (Wrestlemania 36, 2020) remains one of my favourites. It wasn't for everyone, but for those who understood its depth, it was a masterpiece. It was a match that came at a time where the world was shut down and we needed an escape from reality. Bray knew his audience – those loyal viewers who craved acknowledgment, who searched for Easter eggs and subtle nods (along with some not-so-subtle winks to camera, talking directly to his fans). Bray Wyatt dared to be bold. In a time when creativity often felt stifled, he fearlessly injected his character with veiled jabs at WWE creative. The Vince McMahon puppet with little devil horns was a testament to his audacity. He thrived on speculation and anticipation, drawing fans into conversations about the identities of the wrestlers behind the puppets and the possibility of a Wyatt Six faction. Bray was more than a performer; he was an architect of engagement.
Beyond his character, Windham was a person who was loved and respected. To his father Mike, his brother Bo, his wife Jojo, and to his children, my heart goes out. The Wyatt family, both the on-screen and off-screen versions, has suffered profound losses with the passing of Brodie and now Bray.
As I watched the tribute videos and teary messages this morning, I stumbled upon his return speech following Extreme Rules and the words he left us with, "This is a version of me that I’ve never got to introduce to you guys before, this is just me… being me, genuine me, for the first time." Those words echo a sentiment many can relate to – the search for authenticity in a world that often demands conformity.
To Bray, thank you for the stories, the captivating moments, the suspense, the pops, your unapologetic creativity and your beautiful mind and thank you, for being you. You always mattered to us and as the fireflies fade off screen, your legacy will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of your fans worldwide.
With pins, submissions, and some tears,
Chloe xoxo
25.08.2023
“...I was in a time of need, and I lost people that were close to me, and I lost my self-confidence and I felt weak and I felt vulnerable. And in this weakest state I found your words Bray, I found your words…”

BURNING WITH THE SAINTS - BRAY WYATT
Tumblr media
Pairing: Bray Wyatt (aka Windham Rotunda) x Female! Reader
Summary: Bray makes his shocking return at Summer Slam since his WWE release in 2021 of last year, Bray makes things for the better, and not for the worse. 
Rating / Warnings: Teen, Angst, Visuals, No Warnings!
Word Count: 800+
Authors Note: This one is very short, but I still hope you guys enjoy reading this one <3 – Shar? 
The cinematic white lights in the arena for over 40,000 fans in presence had fluttered down like butterflies landing on their nest. Everything was dead silent in the arena holding 40,000 fans. The atmosphere grew heavy with pondered wonders, wondering: ‘’What is going on?’’ 
We’re really glad that you’re our friend, and this is a friendship that’ll never, ever end. 
Haven’t heard that sound in a long time, you thought. It was probably a joke ---- but it wasn’t once you knew the reaction from the crowd. 
‘’What!? Could it be!? It’s him! It’s The Fiend, Bray Wyatt, what in the hell is he doing here!?’’ Michael Cole exclaimed from the announcer desk, not believing what he saw with his own eyes. 
The intensity of Bray Wyatt’s return filled the air, fans jumping out of their seats as they cheered for him. 
You covered your mouth from gasping aloud to draw attention from an older couple sitting next to you, eyeing at you and rolling their eyes. A younger person with ‘’The Fiend Will Outlast Them All’’ sign was shocked as you, dropping her sign onto the ground. 
‘’I-it’s him...’’ She pointed at Bray walking casually down the ramp towards the ring in his fiend costume, with her mouth hung open. 
Seth Rollins, the one who had a mystery opponent for the night ever since he had injured Riddle, stood in the ring not backing down.  
How brave of Seth, you thought, watching the chaos go down between Bray and Seth Freakin’ Rollins. 
Tumblr media
‘’And a sister Abigail to Seth Freakin Rollins! And just like that, The Fiend has made a historical return at SummerSlam!’’ Pat McAfee said, cheering. 
Bray let out an helious laugh, the camera panned in to show Seth laying motionlessly in the ring as his blood red themed lights went out again in a matter of seconds, disappearing from out of the ring. Then and there, when you were about to leave, the younger girl who was known to had dropped her sign next to you earlier tapped you on the shoulder. 
‘’I uh, wanted to say have a good night, and drive safe.’’ She said, rubbing the back of her neck awkwardly and pushing her glasses up to the bridge of her nose. 
‘’Oh, you too.’’ You gave a smile to her before awkwardly walking away down to your car. 
You pulled your phone out and tweeted: 
‘’Best SummerSlam yet. We love you, @windham6.’’  
Smiling, you hugged your phone closely to your chest, letting out a sigh of relief. How much you missed your idol, Bray Wyatt was so emotional, that night was emotional for you. The last time you had seen him wrestle live was in 2019 before The Thunderdome Era. You walked over to a nearby elevator, and entered it before anyone else could. Seconds from closing the elevator doors, a man who was about 6’3 with dreads and tattoos had stopped the door from closing. 
‘’Hey, do you mind if I can ride the elevator with you, young lady?’’ 
‘’B-Bray? Oh my god!’’ 
You froze up, not knowing what to do. Okay, do not be awkward about it. Just be cool. 
‘’Y-yeah, you can, anything for you.’’ Your smile turned into a sly, yet shy smile. 
‘’Thank you. I’m in a hurry, I got to catch the plane back home. Did you enjoy the show?’’ Bray asked, smiling at the fangirl within you.  
You nodded; you couldn’t believe this was all real. How in the hell can you keep your posture under control with Bray Fucking Wyatt in the same elevator as you? 
‘’Yeah, I really did. It was nice seeing you again, we fans missed you.’’ You stated, biting your cheek from flushing up in embarrassment on the way you were acting. 
The elevator had come down to the first floor to a dead stop, once the elevator doors opened, you shook his hand and thanked him once again. 
‘’I know you are in a hurry, but can I please get a photo with you?’’ You blurted out, getting the courage out of you as Bray accepted the offer as a gentleman. 
‘’Sure! Let’s do it.’’ You pulled your phone out again from your back pocket, and then snapped the photo in one click. 
‘’Thank you, it was nice meeting you.’’ You smiled, he waved goodbye as you were admiring the photo the two of you took, he was out of plain sight. 
*Windham6 liked your tweet* 
The notification dinged on your phone from Twitter, this was a moment that you’ll never forget for the ages.

Hardened by a career defined by betrayal, disappointment and underestimation, Becky Lynch decided to take her destiny into her own hands and force her way to the top of the mountain by throwing off anyone, friend or foe, who was blocking her path. The results speak for themselves. Lynch gave the Women’s division a shot in the arm in 2018 when she won her second SmackDown Women’s Championship, leading an invasion of Raw that left Ronda Rousey demoralized and humiliated — this despite Becky suffering a concussion in the process. The Man made her mark again by winning the 2019 Royal Rumble Match to earn a World Championship opportunity at WrestleMania 35. That opportunity eventually became the first women’s main event in WrestleMania history where The Man defeated Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey and SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair to claim both titles in their Winner Take All Match. Becky would go on to become the longest-reigning Raw Women's Champion in history, fending off challenges from the likes of Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans, and pretty much anyone in a pair of boots who was brazen enough to stand in her way. Her reign finally came to an end on the May 11, 2020, edition of Raw when Lynch announced that she was pregnant and relinquished her cherished prize. At SummerSlam 2021, though, Becky returned in epic fashion, entering the ring after Sasha Banks was deemed unable to challenge SmackDown Women's Champion Bianca Belair, knocking would-be replacement Carmella out of the ring and overcoming The EST of WWE in an impromptu matchup to become a five-time Women's Champion. A short time later, Lynch proved that her star was burning as bright as ever when she was drafted to Raw with the first pick in the 2021 WWE Draft. In 2023, Lynch would become a Triple Crown Champion after she won the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship with Lita.

The Road to... Wrestlemania XL
Part 3: Jey Uso vs. Jimmy Uso
Tumblr media
Who has a longer history than not only brothers but twin brothers? They've been together since Day One (ish) but now...
If you've read Part 1 of this series, you know all about The Bloodline. Roman Reigns' and his family have been on top of the WWE for the past 3 years. The two most prominent members of this faction has long been the team of The Usos. Since debuting on WWE TV in 2010, this tag team of brothers have been one of the leading teams in the whole company. From brightly-dressed faces to more sinister heels, and even determined tweeners, they are 8-time tag team champions as a duo.
Fast forward 10 years from their debuts. Roman Reigns has just returned to WWE and won the WWE Universal Championship. When a match is set up to determine his next contender, there's a surprising winner: his cousin, Jey Uso.
Jey Uso One half of The Usos, now nicknamed "Main Event", and a member of the Anoa'i Family Standing at 6'2'', weighing 242lbs, from San Francisco, California, USA, he is now a 10-time tag team champion and the son of Rikishi Finisher: Uso Splash
Tumblr media
Uso was keen to reunite with his cousin and have a sporting match for the title. Despite his tag team success, many never thought he would have an opportunity to challenge for the World Title. However, with brother Jimmy injured, he had earned this shot. He would face Reigns at Clash of Champions 2020, but Reigns was cold and brutal against his cousin, hitting a low blow on Uso. The match would only end when Jimmy Uso threw in the towel, with Reigns raining down strikes demanding Jey acknowledge him as The Tribal Chief.
A defiant Jey would not back down though, and would take on Reigns again at Hell in a Cell for the title in a Hell in a Cell I Quit match. Reigns would try to destroy his cousin, even fighting off officials who tried to stop the match. Jey would never quit from this. When brother Jimmy arrived and begged their cousin Roman to stop, The Tribal Chief appeared to feel extreme guilt for his actions... before ensnaring Jimmy in a Guillotine Hold. To stop this happening to his brother, Jey finally said "I Quit". Reigns would walk out the victor, and be sat at the head of the Anoa'i table.
With all this, Jey finally bent the knee and joined The Bloodline. He would carry on the momentum of his great matches as the "Right Hand Man" of Reigns. In May 2021, Jimmy Uso would return from injury, and despite some conflict, he would shortly join The Bloodline too. In this time, The Usos would dominate the tag team division, winning their 7th and 8th championships as part of The Bloodline. These were both sets of WWE Tag Titles which they held consecutively for 316 days, holding the Smackdown titles for 622 days total.
During this reign, Jey would almost leave The Bloodline over the excommunication of Sami Zayn, but he would turn his back on his friend. It was in the main event of Wrestlemania 39: Saturday that The Usos lost the titles to Zayn & Kevin Owens, and having failed to recapture them, Reigns was losing his patience with them. When he and Solo Sikoa, The Usos' younger brother, challenged for the titles, it would be Jimmy who would cost them the match and leave The Bloodline by superkicking Reigns. Whilst they tried to keep Jey from leaving, he would side with his brother no matter what. At Money in the Bank 2023, The Usos would defeat Reigns & Sikoa with Jey being the first man to pin Reigns since December 2019.
This would lead to Reigns defending against Jey Uso one more time in the main event of Summerslam 2023 in an anything-goes Tribal Combat match. Jey was building up a head of steam when the unthinkable happened. He was pulled from the ring when he had Reigns beat. Who did it? His brother, Jimmy Uso.
Jimmy Uso The other half of The Usos, part of the Anoa'i Family, and son of Rikishi. Standing at 6'3'', 251lbs, from San Francisco, California, USA, he is an 8-time tag team champion. Finisher: Uso Splash
Tumblr media
Jey would go on to lose this match, and when he confronted Jimmy, he said he feared what the power would do to Jey's head. Heartbroken, Jey would quit the company, but would eventually return to the Raw show away from his family. It's here where he would establish himself as "Main Event" Jey Uso, challenging for their World Title and being a part of their top tier talent. He would reclaim both sets of Tag Team Championships briefly with Cody Rhodes, and even become known for his use of the term "Yeet".
Jimmy would rejoin The Bloodline without Jey, and he began to get even more desperate as he was under high pressure from Reigns. These two brothers would continue to feud though. They would brawl, Jimmy would cost Jey matches, and Jimmy would even coin "No Yeet". It became obvious that this needed to end, and where else but Wrestlemania?
Tag Partner vs. Tag Partner. Brother vs. Brother. Twin vs. Twin. At Wrestlemania XL Saturday, it all comes down to Jey Uso vs. Jimmy Uso.
WWE have put out a compilation video summing up this feud, and you can check it out here.

The Shield 🤜🏻👊🏼🤛🏻
It all started 11 years ago
credit: @romanreigns.mz
🎥credit: @_revx7_
The Shield was a professional wrestling stable in WWE that consisted of Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins. The group debuted on November 18, 2012 at the Survivor Series pay-per-view. The Shield was a dominant force in six-man tag team matches with an undefeated televised streak lasting from December 2012 to May 2013, during which they scored a victory at WrestleMania 29. In May 2013 at Extreme Rules, all three members of The Shield won a championship, with Ambrose winning the United States Championship while Rollins and Reigns captured the WWE Tag Team Championship. Rollins and Reigns were WWE Tag Team Champions until October 2013, and Ambrose was United States Champion until May 2014, which was a record reign for the WWE version of the championship. As a Shield member, Reigns gained prominence by setting and equaling elimination records at the 2013 Survivor Series and the 2014 Royal Rumble events.
They wrestled in the main event of numerous Raw and SmackDown television shows and headlined one pay-per-view, the 2014 Payback event, which was their final match as a trio until 2017. Rollins left the group on June 2, when he attacked Ambrose and Reigns with a chair and sided with The Authority. Ambrose and Reigns with a chair and sided with The Authority. Ambrose and Reigns went on their own ways as singles wrestlers later that month, marking the end of The Shield.
Following the group's dissolution, each member of The Shield went on to become a world champion. All three reigned as WWE World Heavyweight Champion within a three-minute span at the end of the 2016 Money in the Bank event: Rollins defeated Reigns for the championship and then Ambrose cashed
in his Money in the Bank briefcase (which he won earlier that night) on Rollins to win the title.
In the lead-up to the 2017 SummerSlam event, Ambrose and Rollins reunited and captured the Raw Tag Team Championship from Cesaro and Sheamus. Then on the October 9 episode of Raw, the trio reunited to feud with The Miz, Cesaro and Sheamus. In December 2017, the team dissolved once again after Ambrose suffered an injury. Following Ambrose's return from injury the previous week, The Shield reunited once again on August 20, 2018 episode of Raw to prevent Braun Strowman from cashing in his Money in the Bank contract on Reigns. However, in October that same year, The Shield disbanded following Reigns' hiatus over his leukemia rediagnosis and Ambrose's betrayal towards Rollins. After Reigns returned in February 2019 and announced that his leukemia was in remission, the trio reunited and won the main event match of Fastlane that same month. Although this was promoted as The Shield's final match together, they reunited at the special event The Shield's Final Chapter, Ambrose's final WWE match due to not renewing his contract.

With a combination of beauty, talent and untamed desire, Natalya is proudly carrying on the legacy of the legendary Hart Family in WWE and shows time and time again why she is the BOAT of WWE. The daughter of Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart, which explains her tough, forceful in-ring style that perfectly complements her mat ingenuity, Natalya was trained in the rough-and-tumble Hart Dungeon. The unforgiving training ground that churned out mat greats like Brian Pillman and Natalya's husband, Tyson Kidd, molded The Queen of Harts into one of WWE's most dangerous submission grapplers. She also learned from her uncle Bret “Hit Man” Hart by driving many of her opponents to tap via the family Sharpshooter. Her presence out of the ring is just as incredible: Starring on E!’s Total Divas reality series and working as an active supporter of WWE and The Creative Coalition’s Be a STAR Alliance, Make-A-Wish, Susan G. Komen and the WrestleMania Reading Challenge. Natalya came agonizingly close to capturing championships for several years until she finally broke through at SummerSlam 2017, defeating Naomi for the SmackDown Women’s Championship to earn the gold for the first time since claiming the Divas Title in 2010. She made history once again in 2019, defeating Lacey Evans at WWE Crown Jewel in the historic first-ever women's match in Saudi Arabia. Now back on SmackDown, the third-generation Superstar wrote her newest chapter in her incredible legacy alongside Tamina, as the tandem won the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles in a victory over Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler. The WWE Universe always assumed it would take a man of tremendous ability to live up to the legendary legacy of the pink and black. As it turned out, it’s doing just fine in this woman’s hands.
