Rumor Roundup: Vince Planning Monster Push For New Superstar, New WWE Faction, More

1) Vince McMahon Planning Monster Push For New WWE Superstar

On this week’s episode of RAW, Brendan Vink and Shane Thorne picked up a surprising win against Ricochet and Cedric Alexander. According to the rumor mill, there are some big plans in store for Vink.

Mike Johnson of PWInsider says that this is the beginning of Vince McMahon’s long-term push of Vink.

Here is what Johnson said (h/t to Ringside News for the quote below):

“I was told this is sort of the beginning of trying to make Brendan Vink a star and beginning that build toward a long-term push.

One person described it to me that it was kinda like when Braun Strowman was part of the Wyatt Family when Vince McMahon saw him as a long-term project to build for the future. That’s kinda where they are with Brendan Vink to build him as a long-term project.”

My Take:

  • This is definitely interesting news. It now also makes sense why Vink and Thorne beat Ricochet and Cedric on RAW. I don’t know much about Vink but I am interested to see what he can do on the WWE main roster. He must have impressed WWE a lot behind-the-scenes to get this chance.
