Rumor Roundup: WWE’s Plans For Jey Uso, Survivor Series Bonuses, More

Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.

5) Some WWE Stars Received Bonuses For Working Survivor Series

According to Sean Ross Sapp on Fightful Select (subscribe here), some WWE Superstars received flat bonuses for Survivor Series.

This bonus was rumored to be for $15,000. Here is what Sapp wrote:

There were several people that were told they would be given $15,000 bonuses for appearing on Survivor Series in a highlighted match. We aren’t sure if that’s across the board or if there are additional levels.

My Take:

  • I will let you guys know if we find out more details about these bonuses and who received them. It is always interesting to find out backstage news like this.

4) Smackdown Was A Mess Backstage This Week

According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline, Smackdown was a mess backstage before the show started. This came after Vince McMahon arrived late and they didn’t start planning the show until after he arrived.

Here is what Meltzer wrote:

We got one report that Smackdown was a mess as the show was still being worked on a few hours ago. Nobody knew anything which is why nothing has been advertised. Vince McMahon arrived at about 12:30 p.m.  Another person confirmed people not knowing anything until Vince came, but said that has been the case almost every week of late and it’s nothing new.

My Take:

  • I thought that it was a decent episode this week, so I didn’t really notice anything out-of-wack.
