Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.
5) More On The Superstars Who Could Be Sent Back To NXT
Tom Colohue noted recently that WWE is planning on doing a Superstar Shake-Up after Wrestlemania 36. This time, NXT will be more involved.
Colohue says that those sent to NXT will have an underground feel, who keep the spirit of the brand. Here is what he said:
“When it comes to who we’re going to get [moving to NXT], I definitely don’t see a Roman Reigns figure going. It’s been said to me that changes will be keeping in the spirit of NXT. I think it’ll be that underground feeling. I think we’re looking more at, for example, a Sami Zayn. Sami Zayn would be a perfect figure to come back to NXT for a year or so. Nakamura – perfect example of someone who could come back to NXT for a little while.”
My Take:
- Sami Zayn is my pick to move back to NXT. It would be great to see him as a babyface again. I want him against Adam Cole, Finn Balor, and more.
4) Two Matches That Are Likely For The Royal Rumble
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer wrote about two title matches that are likely for the Royal Rumble PPV.
Here is what Meltzer wrote:
Two other possible matches are bouts originally set for TLC, which were pushed on this past week’s Smackdown show, Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Braun Strowman for the IC title and Bayley vs. Lacey Evans for the Smackdown women’s title.
My Take:
- Both sound good to me and would make sense based on what has happened on Smackdown. I think that both will also be solid matches.
