Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.
5) WWE Passes On Signing Top ROH Star
According to a report from Wrestling INC, WWE recently passed on signing RUSH, who is the current ROH World Champion.
Here is what the site wrote about RUSH:
WWE recently passed on signing ROH World Champion RUSH, Wrestling Inc. has learned.
According to sources close to the situation, WWE passed on signing RUSH because his asking price was too high. RUSH was represented by AAA during the negotiations.
WWE reportedly made an offer that was lower than expected, continuing a trend of the company lowballing signed and unsigned talent.
My Take:
- RUSH is a talented guy that would have fit in well with NXT. I am sure that the door is still open for the future, so we can revisit this in another year or two.
4) Ricochet’s Future
According to Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live, Ricochet’s contract is believed to be expiring soon.
Ricochet originally signed a 3-year deal in January of 2018. There has been no news on Ricochet signing a new with the company, which has led to the rumors.
Update: Ricochet has denied on Twitter that he is leaving WWE.
My Take:
- I don’t see Ricochet leaving. He has some bad luck though as WWE isn’t offering big deals to keep Superstars like they were last year. It will be interesting to see what happens.
