25 Most Revealing WWE Instagram Posts Of The Week (Jan 14)

Hot on the heels of a freakishly unpredictable first week on the 2022 WWE calendar, the dust finally began to settle after a last-minute shift forced major Day 1 changes.

NXT 2.0 also settled into its latest "era" - your writer makes that three in the last 12-months, right? - with Bron Breakker and Carmelo Hayes parading their belts around the CWC before AJ Styles attempted to make Grayson Waller look Phenomenal.
