 Penta spent the past few years in All Elite Wrestling before departing the promotion last year. He competed in the Men's Royal Rumble Match but was eliminated by The Judgment Day's Finn Balor. The inaugural Universal Champion was then eliminated by John Cena in the 30-man bout last Saturday. Ahead of tomorrow's edition of RAW, the former AEW World Tag Team Champion took to his X (fka Twitter) account to respond to a message from Balor. The Judgment Day star had sent the luchador a gloating note after eliminating him from the 'Rumble. The 39-year-old claimed that The Prince got lucky at the PLE last weekend, and added that he would be seeing him soon. |  Ludwig Kaiser, with Gunther's blessings, kicked Giovanni Vinci out of Imperium last year and the 34-year-old went on hiatus for months. He finally returned on the September 6, 2024, episode of SmackDown but lost the match in seconds to Apollo Crews. They had a rematch later and Crews prevailed again. Vinci was released by the company this week, after months of inactivity, and took to Instagram to break his silence following his departure from the company. The 34-year-old sent a heartfelt message to fans and to everyone he worked with in the promotion. |
FROM THE RUMOR MILL
Despite her excellent in-ring skills, Dakota Kai's career has often been held back by frequent injuries that have kept her out of the ring. In 2023, she tore her ACL, which kept her out of the ring for several months. Last year, she suffered a torn meniscus, which again sidelined her for another couple of weeks. Sadly, this wasn't the end of her injury woes.
During the January 20, 2025, episode of WWE RAW, Dakota Kai and IYO SKY teamed up to face Pure Fusion Collective's Shayna Baszler and Zoey Stark. During the match, she took a nasty bump, which resulted in a concussion reportedly. According to a recent report from PWInsider, Dakota Kai has been medically cleared to return to the ring from her recent concussion.
