WWE News: More Changes Made To Saturday’s Starrcade Live Event
This Saturday’s WWE Starrcade Live Event card has seen more changes!
This Saturday night in Cincinnati, Ohio, the WWE will be bringing back the old NWA/WCW event Starrcade for the second straight year, but unlike last year, this show will be broadcast on the WWE Network as a one hour special this coming Sunday night (read more on that here).
The lineup for the event has already seen changes after SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch was injured last Monday on RAW. Previously, ‘The Lass Kicker’ had been scheduled to defend her title against Charlotte Flair in a Steel Cage Match, but that was pulled (find that story here). Today, more alterations were made to the card now that Braun Strowman will be undergoing surgery on his right arm.
The previously advertised Braun Strowman vs. Baron Corbin match has also now been pulled, however a new segment has been added. With Rey Mysterio set to challenge Shinsuke Nakamura for the United States Championship, it’s now been revealed that earlier in the night the two will be the guests on a special edition of MizTV with The Miz. Additionally, after being given some time off over the past week, many fans have wondered if AJ Styles would still be competing at Starrcade. At this time unless something drastically changes, multiple sources have reported that ‘The Phenomenal One’ will be back on the road with WWE this weekend.
Here’s a look at the updated lineup for WWE Starrcade. Also scheduled to appear, but not on the card right now are Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss and Dolph Ziggler:
Street Fight for the Intercontinental Championship
(C) Seth Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose
Steel Cage Match
AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe
United States Championship
(C) Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Rey Mysterio

WWE Has Yet to Reach Initial Goal After AAA Acquisition, Dave Meltzer Reports
On an episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer said WWE has not yet achieved the objectives it set following last year’s acquisition of Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. Meltzer indicated that the integration and strategic milestones tied to the purchase remain a work in progress.
His comments add to industry scrutiny over the timeline and overall impact of WWE’s expansion into the Mexican market, where AAA’s roster and brand are viewed as significant assets. WWE has not publicly confirmed whether it has revised its expectations or adjusted its plan for leveraging AAA.

WWE/TKO Reportedly Seeking Major Pay Cuts for Talent
Two reports indicate WWE and its new parent company TKO have been asking contracted talent to accept pay reductions, with one rumor suggesting cuts could be as high as 50 percent. The outreach is said to affect performers across multiple tiers as the company reviews payroll and operational expenses.
If accurate, the proposed cuts could reshape contract talks and talent retention amid TKO’s restructuring, raising questions about morale and long-term roster depth. WWE has not issued a public confirmation as discussions are reportedly ongoing.
