Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.
5) WWE Was Hoping That Goldberg Would Have Ad-Libbed His RAW Promo
According to Sean Ross Sapp on Fightful Select (subscribe here), WWE was hoping that Goldberg would have ad-libbed his promo during RAW Legends Night. The show was running long and they had to skip a promo from Drew McIntyre after his match against Keith Lee. As a result, Goldberg’s promo about Drew disrespecting legends did not make any sense.
Here is what Sapp wrote:
If you thought the way that Goldberg and Drew McIntyre ended things on WWE Raw was off, there’s a good reason for it. The show fell behind early in the night after scripts were already late for the show, and had the two stars pressed for time in the Raw main event segment. There was supposed to be supplemental actions and lines that helped make sense of Goldberg’s promo about Drew McIntyre disrespecting legends. As they were facing a time crunch and had to set it up quickly, Goldberg delivered the lines as scripted, but then when they didn’t make sense, ad-libbing had to be done by Drew McIntyre to add in the “fighting his dad” line.
Those that we spoke to backstage say that they were hopeful that Goldberg would ad-lib during the promo to make up for things, but understand that he was just delivering the lines as instructed.
My Take:
- Sounds like WWE needs to work on their time management.
4) ROH Star Is Now A Free Agent
According to a report from Wrestling INC, Dalton Castle is now a free agent. He has reportedly been offered a new deal from Ring Of Honor but he is still looking at his options.
Here is what the site wrote:
From what we are told ROH has offered Castle a new deal and it’s said to be good. Castle is considering the offer but wants to see what else is out there. As of now, of course, he is a free agent.
My Take:
- I could see Castle signing with either WWE or AEW. It will be interesting to see what he does.
