Several monstrous giants have worked in WWF/E as the wrestling company has always looked for someone with the ability to instill fear in the top Superstars. Legendary André the Giant, Big Show, and The Great Khali, have graced the company with their physical prowess and Omos is the new addition of such ginormous superstars in WWE.

Apart from the thrilling matches at WWE, the wrestling industry has often made headlines for lacking female referees, until Jessika Carr made her debut in 2019 during SmackDown. Being the first full-time female referee, Carr has been working with WWE for a long time.

However, despite her unbiased judgment and help, she seems to lack her deserving credit. Take the recent example of WrestleMania 40 when a few fans noticed Jessica Carr helping Damian Priest during the Six-Pack Tag Team Ladder Match. Apparently, Carr saved Priest from a scary botch by informing him about his ladder. And yet, rarely anyone offered Carr the credit for helping.
Jessica Carr Went Unnoticed Despite Saving Damian Priest
Making her debut in 2019 during Friday Night SmackDown, Jessica Carr became WWE’s first full-time female referee. Ever since then she has been appearing during several matches and dedicating herself to the wrestling universe.

The story of World Championship Wrestling is one of an amazing rise but then a tragic fall that was hard to watch. While the American wrestling promotion spent much of its early days as second best, WCW figured itself out at a time when the World Wrestling Federation was destroying itself in the ’90s. WCW rose up and became what seemed like an unstoppable force before tripping on its own success while WWF recovered from its mistakes and regained traction. Having lost all that momentum, WCW did itself no favors by spending the next several years making every single bad decision possible. They absolutely could not get a win if they tried.
Now the dead promotion is considered a cautionary tale and a pile-on for jokes about the Shockmaster, David Arquette, the Fingerpoke of Doom, Hulk Hogan being humped by a giant mummy, the fumbling of Steve Austin, Judy Bagwell on a forklift,...

Kofi Kingston is still having the time of his life in WWE after almost 20 years. The beloved veteran doesn’t take being part of another WrestleMania season for granted. A time of year that is extra special for the superstar, thinking of when he won the WWE championship at the big show in 2019 to top off “KofiMania.” These days he is teaming with Xavier Woods, which collectively alongside Big E is known as the top group The New Day. The popular performer has come a long way since signing his first contract in 2006.

We caught up with Kingston about what keeps him in the ring and why WWE moving Raw...
