Shounak Chakrabarti is a WWE writer at EssentiallySports who brings a wealth of knowledge and a keen eye for detail to his analysis of professional wrestling. With a deep passion for the sport that dates back to his childhood, Shounak has immersed himself in every aspect of the industry, from the career trajectories of WWE superstars to their personal lives and beyond. 

As a journalism graduate, Shounak is a firm believer in the power of digital journalism to provide fans with a unique perspective on pro wrestling. One of his proudest moments came when he wrote a feature on Dwayne Johnson, offering readers an in-depth look at the superstar's workout plan and diet.

Alongside his love for wrestling, Shounak is also a passionate soccer fan, following popular teams like Real Madrid and Arsenal. When he's not writing, he can be found diving into the pages of a Haruki Murakami novel or battling it out on FIFA.

Hi, I'm Donna, the editor for WWE at EssentiallySports. I help our writers dot their i's, cross their t's, and ensure they get all their facts straight. I am particularly invested in the world of wrestling since it's unlike any other sport currently televised. The thought put behind orchestrating wacky storylines and building hype for months on end is incredible and something that I enjoy keeping track of. Particularly, I like the shenanigans Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio get up to as part of The Judgment Day, as well as watching what up-and-coming talents have to offer over at NXT.

During my time at ES, I have been doing live coverage of WWE SmackDown which currently hosts our ?Head of the Table? Roman Reigns. Prior to this, I worked as a reporter for a national newspaper, covering investigative stories on education, space, science, and tech. While these might seem worlds apart, I still enjoy getting into the nitty gritty of stories here at ES, picking apart details and finding out facts about wrestlers that most would overlook. In my spare time, I enjoy delving into my hobbies: writing, drawing, or just goofing off with my cat.

The WWE marketing team released the new poster for their upcoming major PLE Royal Rumble that will take place on January 27th. The poster featured many superstars like Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Cody Rhodes. But it suffered a major mishap that was quickly addressed by two WWE superstars. RICOCHET SHOWS SYMPATHY TOWARDS DREW MCINTYRE AFTER WWE’S MISHAP Former US Champion Ricochet took to social media on December 1st to share his sentiments on the latest mishap by the WWE marketing team. The caption for the tweet read, “Oh I understand! 😅🤣”. Ricochet’s message was in response to Drew McIntyre’s tweet on December 1st where the Scottish Warrior was upset about the new poster for Royal Rumble. He shared the poster on X with the caption, “Are you starting to understand my frustrations now?” McIntyre’s response has two major references here. The first reference is related to his promo a few weeks ago when he turned heel citing frustrations at not winning WWE Championships. The other one is related to McIntyre, and subsequently, Ricochet, missing from the poster. 

Former US Champion and Drew McIntyre took to social media quickly after WWE makes a blunder with their new promo for Royal Rumble.

Have you ever tried imitating the gestures and catchphrases of your favorite pro
wrestlers? Those people eh? Well, I am those people! Hi, I am Himangshu Sinha, a
WWE writer at EssentiallySports who is realizing his dream of writing about his
favorite pro wrestlers. As a WWE fan, I acknowledge my Tribal Chief the most. I

performance of AEW star Orange Cassidy. I have been lucky enough to cover nearly
all of my favorities during my time here at ES. I have worked on a number of
interesting stories ranging from why Cody Rhodes is called ?The American
