SPOILER: Returning WWE Superstar Spotted Backstage at RAW
CommentSantos Escobar is reportedly backstage at the site of tonight's WWE Raw, according to a confirmation from Fightful Select. This follows an initial report from PWInsider last week that Escobar was scheduled to travel to the October 27 event in Anaheim, fueling speculation of his imminent return to television after a months-long absence.
Escobar’s potential appearance comes after a turbulent contract situation. His WWE deal briefly expired on October 6, making him a free agent for approximately 48 hours. During that time, he was even moved to the alumni section of WWE's website. Reports indicated that Escobar re-signed with the company on a new multi-year, "big money" contract after WWE addressed creative concerns he had about his character's direction.
Escobar has not been seen on WWE programming since June. His presence at Raw is particularly noteworthy, as his Legado Del Fantasma stablemates, Angel and Berto, have been appearing on the SmackDown brand, suggesting Escobar may be starting a solo run on Monday nights.

CommentSETH ROLLINS STRIPPED OF WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP; BATTLE ROYALE SET TO DETERMINE WHO WILL FACE CM PUNK FOR THE TITLE
Adam Pearce tries to make an announcement but he's interrupted by the Brons.
Once they hit the ring, Adam announced that Rollins has been stripped of the World Heavyweight Championship. He asks Bron Breakker for the title back.
Bron Breakker says what if he doesn't want to give it back? Heyman tries to convince Bron to give it back. Bron says maybe Pearce should say it with more respect.
Pearce asks respectfully.
Bron says maybe Adam Pearce should say please.
Adam Pearce says please.
Bron laughs and hands the belt to Paul Heyman who gives it to Adam Pearce.
Paul Heyman says he gets it, he also watched WWE Unreal. They're the bad guys, they're the "heels".
But he doesn't understand why people are mad. The Vision was NEVER about Seth Rollins. Paul Heyman did not turn on Roman and Punk for Seth. He turned on them because Bron Breakker is the future and Bronson Reed is better than Roman Reigns.
How could Seth Rollins talk about the future when he's standing there with his bum shoulder. Unable to carry the burden.
Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed conspired to take Seth Rollins Main Event spot. Paul Heyman says this is not revisionist history, this is a RE-VISION of the future.
Welcome to Monday Night RAW.
Finn Balor and JD McDonough are pissed with Dom for getting them into a tag title defense against AJ Styles and Dragon Lee this week.
Dom says he doesn't understand how they're mad when he defends his belts every week, and he's already beaten AJ Styles.
Balor and JD say Dom can handle his defense against Rusev on his own because they're getting ready for their match. They leave.
Roxanne wants Dom to relax. He's great. He's got this.

Becky Lynch has enough of Maxxine's luck, so she smacks her with the title and beats her down after the match.
Asuka is done with Iyo and Rhea. She broke Iyo's spirit and she ruined Rhea's return to Australia at Crown Jewel.
Asuka is happy that Kairi finally showed her ruthless side last week when they attacked Rhea and Iyo.
Now the Kabuki Warriors want a new challenge. They want gold and they're putting the entire Women Tag Team Division on hold
Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed have been REMOVED from the World Heavyweight Championship Battle Royale
Heyman turned around and runs into Becky Lynch. Heyman tries to convince Becky Lynch that he only turned on Seth Rollins because he needed to survive. Heyman says Becky still has a place in the Vision.
Becky grabs him by the neck and says Rollins always knew Heyman would turn, he even wondered why it took so long.
When Rollins returns, he's not going to hurt Heyman. He's going to make Heyman watch him take down whatever nepo baby he's decided to attach himself to at that time.
Stephanie Vaquer def. Roxanne Perez
Raquel and Roxanne jumped Stephanie after the match but Nikki Bella runs out to even the odds!!!

WWE Sends AEW Cease and Desist Over Usage of Andrade
CommentWrestling Observer Radio is reporting WWE has issued a cease and desist letter to All Elite Wrestling (AEW). The legal notice concerns the recent appearance of Andrade El Idolo on AEW programming, which is alleged to be a violation of a non-compete clause following his dismissal from WWE in the summer of 2025.
Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez spoke on the latest Wrestling Observer Radio about the subject:
"Here’s what I heard. I don’t know what’s going on with Andrade but I was told that he’s not hurt. He didn’t get himself fired. Apparently something is up involving his WWE non-compete…I was given the impression it could be something that could be resolved quickly or it could be something that might not be resolved for a while, but it’s something related to the non-compete. When he was fired, remember we were told they [WWE] didn’t care," Bryan Alvarez said.
"That is what I’ve been hearing was WWE sent a letter and they [AEW] obviously didn’t know. AEW obviously believed that there was no non-compete. There were people who talked to people in WWE who also believed there was no non-compete but WWE apparently, you know, that’s the story that they said he can’t do them for 90 days," added Dave Meltzer.
Andrade's second tenure with WWE concluded abruptly when he was released on September 14, 2025. Reports at the time indicated the departure was not mutual but a disciplinary action from the company. The release followed a tumultuous period for the superstar, which included at least one supposed wellness policy violation that led to a suspension without pay.
The heart of the dispute is the standard 90-day non-compete clause included in WWE main roster contracts. This clause prevents a superstar from appearing for a competing promotion for that period after their departure, during which WWE continues to pay their salary. Andrade made his surprise return to AEW in early October, well within the 90-day window of his September firing. His appearance on AEW programming seemingly triggered the legal action from WWE.
Seth Rollins Believed to be Hurt In Crown Jewel Match with Cody Rhodes
CommentPWInsider reports the angle on Raw earlier today with Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker turning on Seth Rollins happened because Seth Rollins was hurt at Crown Jewel: Perth over the weekend.
The belief is Rollins landed on his left shoulder when he hit the coast to coast headbutt
There is no official word on the nature of the issue, but Rollins was seen sporting a sling in a photo he took with a fan Sunday evening in Australia.
PWInsider reports he will be undergoing testing in the coming days.
Fightful reports sources in WWE hinted Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed attacked Rollins as a “heavy creative pivot” without being explicitly stated.
Fightful Select spoke to a source in WWE that indicated that they'd heard that a Bron Breakker split originally wasn't planned or in the cards until next year, somthing that Ibou from Self Made PW had heard previously.

AJ Styles proposes to Finn Bálor, JD McDonagh, and Dominik Mysterio a 6 Man Tag Team Match for tonight. Without making it clear who his partners will be.
It's revealed to be Penta and Dragon Lee
Ayo? World Champion of what?
CM PUNK comes out. He says he won't be getting involved in Seth Rollins business at Crown Jewel because he respects Cody Rhodes.
LA Knight interrupted Punk to say he was a shitty World Champion. Lost the belt in five minutes. Doesn't deserve another shot.
Jey Uso interrupted them both but LA Knight wouldn't stop yapping so Jey super kicked him.
CM PUNK says he assumes Jey Uso came out to interrupt LA Knight and NOT Punk. Punk understands why Jey Uso is motivated to get his title back but he belongs BEHIND CM Punk on the line.
Jey goes to superkick Punk, Jimmy stops him. Punk shoes Jimmy down and attacks Jey, this leaves Jimmy no choice but to take out Punk.
He clearly didn't want this to go down the way it had.

Seth Rollins wants to know what happens if he loses to Cody Rhodes. Paul Heyman says he'll lose the respect of the locker room, he'll lose the Brons and then Heyman himself will have to ask himself why did he choose Seth Rollins over Roman Reigns
Jey Uso is furious at Jimmy for getting him punched in the face. He asks what is Jimmy doing out there if he's not gonna fully support him.
Roman agrees and Jimmy snaps at Roman. He wants Roman to know the Usos are not like him.
But Roman reminds Jimmy, why Jey won the World Championship, he became more like Roman and less like Jimmy.
If Jimmy really wants to help his brother, sometimes he needs to stay out of the way.

Gunther Reportedly Chosen to Be John Cena's Final Opponent
CommentWWE is reportedly planning a significant storyline for John Cena's final match, with Intercontinental Champion Gunther positioned as his last opponent.
In July, WRKD Wrestling first reported that Gunther was the chosen opponent for Cena's retirement match. That initial claim has now been followed up by Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, who reports that WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque is planning to announce a company-wide tournament to determine who will face the 16-time world champion in his career-ending bout.
According to these reports, the tournament will feature many of WWE's top stars, all vying for the historic opportunity to be John Cena's final opponent. However, it is believed that the ultimate outcome has already been decided, with Gunther slated to win the tournament and earn the spot.
While WWE has not made an official announcement, the convergence of these reports suggests that a monumental match between the legendary John Cena and the dominant Gunther is the intended direction for Cena's farewell to the ring.
Santos Escobar Leaving WWE
CommentSantos Escobar is reportedly set to depart from WWE, with his contract officially expiring at midnight on October 6, 2025.
According to a report from Mike Johnson of PWInsider, Escobar will become a free agent upon the expiration of his contract. This will leave him free to sign and compete with any other professional wrestling promotion immediately.
The report states that WWE made significant efforts to re-sign the superstar, including a substantial contract offer with a higher salary. However, Escobar reportedly declined the new terms, choosing to explore his options outside of the company.
This news follows earlier speculation about his future, fueled by his prolonged absence from WWE television and rumors of his contract status being a topic of discussion. At this time, neither WWE nor Santos Escobar has released an official statement regarding the departure.
Steven Borden, Son of Sting, Makes Pro Wrestling Debut
CommentFollowing in the footsteps of a legend, Steven Borden, the son of iconic wrestler Sting, has officially stepped into the squared circle, making his professional wrestling debut at the unique "52W Hardway" event. The show, an art exhibition in New York City hosted by AEW star Darby Allin, blended the worlds of contemporary art and live pro wrestling.
In his debut match, Borden teamed up with JD Drake to face a formidable duo: his mentor Darby Allin and Karrion Kross. This first official match marks a significant step for Borden, who has been diligently training for a career in the ring.
This was not Borden's first time in front of a wrestling crowd, however. He made a memorable appearance at All Elite Wrestling's "Revolution" pay-per-view earlier in the year, during his father's emotional retirement match. Paying tribute to his father's storied career, Borden appeared dressed in Sting's classic nWo Wolfpac attire, while his brother Garrett donned the "Surfer" Sting look. During the match, Steven electrified the audience by executing a picture-perfect "Stinger Splash," a move made famous by his father, hinting at the athletic potential he possessed
That appearance at "Revolution" served as a catalyst, and soon after, it was confirmed that Borden, a former University of Kentucky tight end who was briefly signed by the NFL's Kansas City Chiefs, had begun training to become a professional wrestler. He has been honing his craft under the guidance of several respected figures in the industry, including Darby Allin, Adam Copeland (formerly Edge), and the tag team FTR. Borden's debut at "52W Hardway" is the culmination of that hard work and the first chapter in what many fans hope will be another storied Borden legacy in professional wrestling.
