The YEET Master dropped the title to Gunther on RAW this week. Meanwhile, his twin brother, Jimmy, appeared at an event outside the company. We also have a rumor about Liv Morgan's match at the Evolution Premium Live Event next month.

So, without further ado, let's get right to it:


#3. Liv Morgan's match at WWE Evolution

Liv Morgan is a busy woman. While she wrestled in a Queen of the Ring first-round match on RAW this Monday, The Judgment Day member also began her program heading into WWE's all-women's premium live event next month, Evolution.

Confronting Nikki Bella upon her return to the company, Morgan traded personal shots with the WWE Hall of Famer and attacked her. Ringside News has reported that this confrontation will lead to a match between the two at Evolution, although there is an alternative idea.

Nikki's twin sister, Brie, could return as well, with The Bella Twins challenging Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez for the Women's Tag Team Championship. Either way, The Fearless One will face off with The Miracle Kid at the premium live event.


#2. Naomi and Jimmy Uso attend the 2025 BET Awards

Following her big Money in the Bank win on Saturday, Naomi stayed back in Los Angeles for the 2025 BET Awards. She and her husband, Jimmy Uso, attended the event. They were seen together wearing all-black outfits and walking on the red carpet for the event at the Peacock Theater.

Naomi, who was flaunting her Money in the Bank briefcase at the event, posted a rare personal update on Instagram. She shared several pictures from what seemed to be an intimate photoshoot with Uso from the same night.


#1. Why Gunther dethroned Jey Uso on WWE RAW, according to Bill Apter

Jey Uso's loss of the World Heavyweight Championship to Gunther on RAW shocked the WWE Universe. Hardly anyone expected The Ring General to win the title, but he did. However, there might be a huge purpose for his monumental swerve.

Speaking on the latest edition of UnSKripted on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge, legendary journalist Bill Apter claimed this would lead to Goldberg's return ahead of SummerSlam. The WWE Hall of Famer is set to wrestle his final match this year, with Gunther previously teased as his opponent.

As a result, the wrestling veteran said Jey Uso had to be sacrificed:

"I think this is setting us up for Gunther-Goldberg at SummerSlam. I think that's what we're gonna get. Now there's a part of me that feels like that's the primary reason why we got the switch, the title change. Because it felt a bit abrupt to me. Like it just, like, Jey Uso didn't really have an opportunity to really get his bearings, and you know it's only five weeks after he won, six weeks... So, he had a 6-week title reign?" [9:07 onwards]

While Bill Apter stated Gunther could face Goldberg at SummerSlam, WrestleVotes has reported that the match is being targeted for Saturday Night's Main Event next month.
