Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.
5) Update On The Tessa Blanchard-WWE Rumors
According to Sean Ross Sapp on Fightful Select (subscribe here), the Diamond Mine act that WWE is teasing in NXT is not going to involve Tessa Blanchard.
Here is what Sapp wrote:
WWE teased a Diamond Mine act on NXT last week, leading to heavy speculation on who that might be. WWE sources confirmed to Fightful that it was not intended to imply Tessa Blanchard was joining the company. Blanchard has used diamond imagery in the past. A WWE source, when asked, did not want fans expecting Blanchard to be the act or a part of it, but understood how the misconception could happen. Diamond Mine is being played close to the vest within the company.
Talent at the last set of AEW tapings that Fightful spoke to also claimed that AEW said talks with Tessa Blanchard right now were a “firm no.”
My Take:
- I am interested to see where Tessa ends up. There is no denying that she is talented inside of the ring.
4) Backstage Note On Eva Marie’s Signing
According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, Eva Marie actually re-signed with WWE back in September. Since October, she has been brought to television tapings but wasn’t assigned to a brand. We obviously found out this week that she will be joining the RAW roster.
Here is what Johnson wrote:
As PWInsider.com reported last year, Eva Marie came to terms with WWE in September 2020 and by October, she had been attending WWE TV tapings at the WWE Thunderdome. We later reported that she was listed on the company’s internal roster but had not been assigned to a brand. That remained the case until today’s Raw vignette aired.
My Take:
- I will give Eva another shot. I know that a lot of fans dislike her but I will see how she does on this next run.
