3) Daniel Bryan’s WWE Contract
Daniel Bryan was recently interviewed by Alex McCarthy of talkSPORT. During this, Bryan noted that his contract with WWE will be expiring soon.
Here is what Bryan said about his contract and future:
“For me, my contract is up soon and that sort of thing, so it’s really just an evaluation of what’s more important to me. Going out and doing this thing that I love every week, but being away from my family, being away from my wife and kids three days a week, and they’re at this stage that you don’t ever get back. I think it’s a little bit different when they get to be in school and time isn’t as slow as it is now. But we’re not having any more kids and our boy is seven months. Our daughter is going to turn four in May and it’s going by so fast.”
My Take:
- I will guess that Bryan will officially move to part-time status over the next several months. They will bring him in for a few big matches a year but he won’t be around each week. I don’t see him retiring for good.
2) Backstage Rumor About Charlotte Flair
According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, there was a backstage rumor floating around about Charlotte Flair possibly appearing on this week’s episode of Smackdown. This didn’t end up happening but was something that was making the rounds.
Here is what Johnson wrote:
There was talk over the weekend that [Charlotte Flair] might be appearing on this week’s edition of Smackdown. Flair’s disappearance from TV the last several weeks was not related in any way to the Andrade situation.
My Take:
- Charlotte showing up on Smackdown would have been random. I wonder what the logic behind her appearance would have been.
