Rumor Round-Up: Big Push Coming For New RAW Star, Backstage Reaction To The NFL Segments On Smackdown

1) Big Push Coming For New RAW Star

Buddy Murphy ended up moving over to Monday Night RAW in the 2019 WWE Draft. In his first match on his new brand, Murphy defeated Cedric Alexander in what was a fun match.

It appears as if this could be leading towards a big push for Murphy on RAW.

According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Paul Heyman is extremely high on Murphy. Here is what he said (h/t to Ringside News):

“Okay, so Buddy Murphy — Paul Heyman is super, super high on Buddy Murphy. Like, I figured if he had input, probably more than anyone else. The guys I figured he’d get in were Buddy Murphy and Aleister Black and both of them ended up on Raw.”

If this is true, Murphy won’t be WWE’s “best-kept secret” for much longer.
