Skattebo, fellow rookie linebacker Abdul Carter and a bunch of other Giants teammates got into it with Judgment Day (Finn Bálor, JD McDonagh and Dominik Mysterio) ringside at Madison Square Garden on a night when legend John Cena was making his final appearance on Raw. Naturally, comedian Andrew Schulz was part of the fake melee, too. In the ultimate New York show, Skattebo was seated ringside wearing a New York Rangers jersey. Defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris rocked a New York Yankees jersey. Carter seemed to have a New York Giants belt draped over his shoulder as he threw haymakers.

I do love the ol' "you gotta read the fine print" in pro wrestling contracts. On Friday's "SmackDown," Paul Heyman stressed to general manager Nick Aldis, with War Games contract in hand, that the agreement states he could choose any member of the WWE roster across all brands to fill out Team Vision (the brand part was really a red herring for the big reveal at the end of the show).

The performances on Monday's episode of "Raw" reminded fans that the WWE roster is full of talent capable of stealing the show at any time. JD McDonagh had an incredible showing against Sheamus, picking up the win with Finn Balor's help. The WWE Women's Tag Team Championship main event of Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss retaining against Bayley and Lyra Valkyria was worthy of its main-event status.

Whether you're a longtime fan or you couldn't care less, it's hard to deny how much skill - and blood - goes into professional wrestling. Though plot lines are scripted ahead of time and the impacts are staged, the physicality is very real. At its highest level, pro wrestling is basically a decades-long soap opera acted out by highly-trained stuntmen, with improvisational elements in which the audience's reaction and real-life injuries can upend the plot in a moment's notice.

If last week's "SmackDown" left fans a little confused and empty from Drew McIntyre's disqualification win over Cody Rhodes in the impromptu title match, this week turned attention in the short term to Jimmy Uso and the Scottish Warrior, with Uso upset over what McIntyre allegedly did to Jacob Fatu last week. This led to a match with an expected outcome, as McIntyre beat Uso in his march toward Saturday Night's Main Event and a meeting with Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship.

WWE Crown Jewel will take place Saturday from the RAC Arena in Perth, Western Australia (8 a.m. ET on ESPN Unlimited). The premium live event (PLE) will be headlined by a pair of matches for the men's and women's Crown Jewel championships. Undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes will challenge world heavyweight champion Seth Rollins in one match, and WWE women's champion Tiffany Stratton will face new women's world champion Stephanie Vaquer in another.

Becoming a sports star is no easy feat, and neither is making it as a Hollywood actor. But these men and women have proven they can do both! Here are the football players, wrestlers, and more athletes who proved they had skills on *and* off the big screen: 1. To start, John Cena is a 17-time WWE world champion and had his first major acting role in 2006's The Marine. He's since gone on to appear in Trainwreck, Blockers, and HBO Max's Peacemaker.

The recent deal between Netflix and WWE includes heavy branding on the mat and ring posts, which became visible only during live broadcasts.

Despite the tough In-Ring battles, CM Punk expressed he's feeling fortunate and great in multiple aspects of his life after his recent WWE matches.

WWE Superstars like Charlotte Flair showcased their versatility at Fanatics Fest 2025 NYC, stepping outside their wrestling personas to engage in various sports activities.
