WWE SmackDown Results: Winners, Grades, Reaction and Highlights from October 15 - Bleacher Report

Just six days before Crown Jewel, live from Saudi Arabia, WWE SmackDown hit the FSN airwaves for a special two-and-a-half-hour megashow, headlined by an appearance from "The Beast" Brock Lesnar.

The top contender to Roman Reigns' Universal Championship had another message to send The Tribal Chief ahead of their titanic clash on pay-per-view. What was it and how, if at all, did The Head of the Table respond?

The answer awaited on a jam-packed show that featured tournament semifinals, championship clashes and PPV-worthy main events

FLASHBACK >>> NEW YORK TIMES COVERAGE: 1990s WWF Drug Scandal

 

During the 1980s and 1990s, Dr. George Zahorian was thought to have routinely distributed steroids and other drugs to WWF wrestlers, supposedly with the approval of WWF owner Vince McMahon.

In 1993, McMahon was indicted in federal court after the steroid controversy engulfed the promotion, forcing him to temporarily cede control of the WWF to his wife Linda.

The case went to trial in 1994, where McMahon himself was accused of distributing steroids to his wrestlers.

One notable prosecution witness was Nailz (real name: Kevin Wacholz), a former WWF performer who had been fired after a violent confrontation with McMahon.

Nailz testified that McMahon had ordered him to use steroids, but his credibility was called into question during his testimony as he repeatedly stated that he "hated" McMahon.

The jury would later acquit McMahon of the charges and he resumed his role in the day-to day operations of the WWF

How much do WWE wrestlers get paid?

 

On average, a WWE wrestler on the roster makes $500,000 a year, with top-wrestlers making $1 million or more a year, according to Forbes.

Professional WWE wrestlers who make more do so usually because they are involved with acting jobs outside of WWE, which boosts their popularity in the WWE.

RUMOR: St. Louis to host WWE’s Royal Rumble in January - By Brian Harrod

 

Pro wrestling powerhouse WWE will host the 35th annual Royal Rumble at the Dome at America’s Center in St Louis.

The Dome will be the largest venue to host the event since it launched in 1988.

The rumble was virtual-attendance only from Tampa, Florida, in 2021.

USA TODAY: WWE announces another wave of releases, including Braun Strowman, Aleister Black and Lana

Nearly two months after releasing nine superstars, WWE announced a surprising new wave of releases that include some of the company's top names.

The six performers released were Braun Strowman, Aleister Black, Lana, Ruby Riott, Murphy and Santana Garrett. Most of the talent released comes as a shock since most of them were just competing for titles or making their way back to the main roster.

Strowman had just competed for the Universal Championship at Wrestlemania Backlash on May 16. He was the Universal Champion in 2020, won numerous other titles and his "monster among men," moniker made him one of the biggest stars in his eight years with the company.

Black was set up to return to SmackDown after months away from TV. He appeared to begin a feud with Big E on May 21 and the former NXT Champion's departure left fans confused as to what happened....
