Welcome to the Daily Drop for Tuesday, May 28. We are wrapping up the final week of this month, and June will be here soon. There is a lot to get into from the pro wrestling world.
Before we get going, fans watching on the USA Network didn’t get to see the real end of WWE RAW this week. After Liv Morgan beat Becky Lynch, she thanked Dominik Mysterio by laying on a big kiss. This was quite a moment that went viral in a big way.

Now, let’s get into today’s Daily Drop!
WWE:

- Kelani Jordan vs. Wren Sinclair: NXT Women’s North American Championship Qualifying Match
- Trick Williams & Je’Von Evans vs. Gallus

QR Codes: Something is coming for WWE, and a new QR Code popped up during WWE RAW this week. This time a kidnapped woman revealed that she is safe, and thankful that he “set her free.”
The Kiss’ Aftermath: Plenty of people had reactions to the kiss that went down between Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio during the closing moments of WWE RAW. They had much different reactions, but that goes without saying.
Becky’s Future: June 1 will see Becky Lynch become a free agent if she doesn’t ink a new deal. Her loss to Liv Morgan on RAW this week, The Man sat in the ring for a bit and soaked in the moment. We will have to see what her next move is.
Breakker Suspended: After attacking multiple WWE Superstars, Bron Breakker was suspended during RAW. He wasn’t happy about Adam Pearce stepping up to perform his duties as GM.
AEW:
AEW’s Thriving Roster: In an excluisve interview with SEScoops’ own Scott Fishman, Deonna Purrazzo spoke about AEW’s “thriving” women’s division. She also discussed the possibility of teaming with Britt Baker down the line.
Herny Out: Mark Henry expalined that he has left AEW, and he did so to focus on his own brand. He didn’t drop any hints about wrestling again, or going to WWE. He will remain on Busted Open Radio as a co-host, so he’s not leaving the public eye.
Darby’s Condition: Although it was said that he didn’t break his nose at AEW Double or Nothing, Darby Allin still had a busted face to show off on Twitter/X. He shared a photo of the Arnarcy in the Arena’s aftermath, and it certainly looks like he felt that the next morning.
