WWE News: Shinsuke Nakamura Now Scheduled For Extreme Rules
As we all know by now, WWE SmackDown Live Superstar Shinsuke Nakamura was injured in one of the more unusual ways you’ll hear about last week, being bitten by a police dog during a precautionary building sweep last Monday in Bakersfield, California (go here for that story). Shinsuke was forced to miss his scheduled United States Title match against the champion Jeff Hardy last Tuesday and was on crutches for SmackDown Live’s tour of Japan over the weekend. It was then revealed during an interview with Nikkan Sports by Nakamura himself that he would be back in action in a couple of weeks (check that out here).
During SmackDown Live tonight, Hardy would issue an Open Challenge for a title shot just as he did last week, this time being answered by The Miz who would fall short. It was then announced later in the show that ‘The King Of Strong Style’ will now be getting his opportunity at Hardy’s title at Extreme Rules in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Here’s a look at the updated card, which you can catch live Sunday, July 15th at 7PM EST on the WWE Network:

30-Minute Iron Man Match for the Intercontinental Championship

Former WWE Star Reveals How Company Tests Wrestlers for an “Attitude Problem”
A former WWE star took to social media to explain, in brief, how WWE evaluates its talent to determine whether they have an “attitude problem.” The post offered a glimpse into the company’s behind-the-scenes vetting process, suggesting that behavior and professionalism are actively monitored during a wrestler’s time with the promotion.
While the explanation was limited, the revelation underscores WWE’s focus on maintaining locker-room culture and managing talent dynamics. Fans and industry observers may read the post as further evidence that character and conduct behind the curtain can be as consequential as in-ring performance.

WWE Backlash Match Sparks “Clone War” Debate in Wrestling Community
Wrestling fans and insiders are abuzz after a match at WWE Backlash was accused of “copycatting” a formula previously used by an independent wrestler, a situation some are calling a new “clone war” in the industry. The controversy highlights growing concerns about creative overlap between major promotions and the indie scene.
The debate raises questions about originality and recognition, with observers wondering whether mainstream companies should acknowledge or adapt indie ideas more transparently. As the story spreads, fans and performers alike are watching to see how promotions handle influence, credit, and creative borrowing moving forward.
