WWE confirms change in plans for major PLE
Inside: Logan Paul unhappy after getting snubbed by WWE
TOP STORIES TODAY
The major PLE in discussion is NXT Stand & Deliver, which takes place a few hours before the first night of WrestleMania 41. This event is the biggest on the developmental brand's calendar. However, despite the show being only three weeks away, WWE has made a big change.
The change in question has to do with the timings of the show. Initially, the show was intended to start at 11:30 AM. However, WWE has changed the start time for the show twice since the original announcement, first to 10:30 AM and now to 9:30 AM.There has been no official explanation for the change in timings. Given the sheer size of the show and the fact that Night One of WrestleMania 41 starts at 3:30 PM, perhaps the Stamford-based promotion does not want to cut it close.
 Death threats for hitting a finishing move are something you don't hear about much in wrestling. However, context is key here, as the lumbar check was hit on a female star who is now a mainstay on SmackDown. That star is none other than Candice LeRae. Back in her pre-WWE indie days, LeRae had a reputation for wrestling intergender matches. Despite being a relatively lightweight, she was fierce in the ring and didn't back down from anyone, man or woman. Speaking to Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Cedric Alexander revealed that he received death threats for his viral lumbar check against Candice LeRae. |  Logan Paul is not happy that he wasn't nominated for a specific category in the Slammy Awards. He even cursed at a WWE employee for not including him in the list. The Slammy Awards will return this year, and the winners will be announced during WrestleMania weekend. Logan Paul is frustrated that he wasn't nominated for the 'Social Star of the Year' award, as social media is his thing. |
FROM THE RUMOR MILL
Alexa Bliss hasn't been seen on WWE television since her loss at Elimination Chamber, despite only returning from a two-year hiatus at the 2025 Royal Rumble. The former RAW Women's Champion disappeared from TV despite seemingly setting up a story with Liv Morgan, and there was a belief that she was taken off TV because Wyatt Sicks was not able to return for a while.
As part of Fightful Select's Answers, Sean Ross Sapp reiterated that Alexa Bliss is not currently injured and claimed that there were no issues with her and WWE at present. The report claimed that Bliss was very happy with the company at present, but she was awaiting creative plans.
