Hey everyone,
I just wanted to take a moment to let you know that I won’t be able to do updates as often on WrestlingNewsBlog.com for a little while. I’m currently dealing with a family medical situation that requires most of my time and attention, and as much as I love covering the world of professional wrestling, family comes first.
I truly appreciate everyone who visits the site, shares our posts, and keeps the conversation going.

As several AEW contracts near their expiration dates, WWE appears to be circling with growing interest—especially in a few standout names from the roster.
According to a new report from BodySlam.net, WWE has its sights set on Danhausen and the high-flying tag team Private Party (Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen), whose AEW deals are reportedly coming to an end soon. The report suggests that things could move quickly, with one source noting that “movement could happen sooner rather than later.”
This lines up with earlier whispers that WWE had “preliminary interest” in Private Party, a team that has long been seen as having untapped potential in a larger spotlight. Danhausen, known for his bizarre charisma and cult following, could also bring a fresh flavor to WWE’s character-driven programming.
Beyond those three names, a handful of other AEW contracts are also approaching their expiration dates. Chris Jericho’s current deal is set to run out at the end of 2025, while Renee Paquette, Matt Menard, and Angelo Parker will reportedly be free agents come August.
Notably locked in, however, is Jon Moxley. The former WWE Champion—still one of AEW’s top stars—remains under contract through 2027 and is said to be among the company’s highest earners.
As free agency looms, the wrestling landscape could be in for another shake-up. AEW will be looking to retain key talent, while WWE seems poised to make strategic plays in a continually evolving talent war.
WWE Raw airs live today globally on Netflix from the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with a special start time of 6:00 pm ET/3:00 pm PT.
Major League Wrestling isn’t slowing down this summer. Hot off the heels of their “Summer of the Beasts” event on June 26 at the Melrose Ballroom in New York City, the company pulled off a surprise that has the wrestling world buzzing—and possibly laid the groundwork for major future collaborations.
In a development that flew under the radar until now, MLW held a closed-door international summit following the show, bringing together top executives from New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) and Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). While exact details of the summit remain scarce, the meeting signals MLW’s growing ambition to establish deeper global partnerships and expand its influence beyond the U.S. indie scene.
The in-ring action that night was equally headline-worthy, thanks to the shocking return of MJF. The former AEW World Champion made an unannounced appearance, storming the ring to attack lucha legend Mistico. The ambush immediately reignited their long-dormant rivalry that began during AEW’s Grand Slam: Mexico special.
MJF’s surprise involvement wasn’t just a one-off, either. According to a report from PWInsider, the belief within MLW is that this won’t be his only appearance for the promotion—suggesting a potential storyline arc that could carry through the summer and beyond.
Between forging new international ties and welcoming one of wrestling’s most talked-about stars back into the fold, MLW is clearly positioning itself for a major leap forward. Fans should keep a close eye on what’s next. The “Summer of the Beasts” might just be the beginning.
