Anyway, we’re back again with another edition of our daily rumor roundup. A lot happened within a day. One of the biggest Superstars on RAW could be on his way to SmackDown soon. Vince McMahon wants a talented Superstar to win his first world title on the main roster. A promising WWE Superstar’s in-ring career may have come to an end due to a neck injury. A tag team and a former WWE Champion could be returning to TV soon....

However, with the tour set to begin in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Wednesday, there has been a new twist which has left fans wondering whether she will appear or not. In case you didn’t know… Sasha Banks has not appeared on WWE programming since she and Bayley lost the Women’s Tag Team titles to The IIconics in a Fatal 4-Way match at WrestleMania 35. Widespread reports over the last few weeks have suggested that “The Boss” was told to take some time off to think about her future after reportedly requesting her release, while Pro Wrestling Sheet’s Ryan Satin said that both Boss ‘n’ Hug Connection members loudly complained about their ‘Mania defeat in the locker room and outside one of their hotel rooms....

Vince McMahon never usually takes time off of tapings unless absolutely necessary, but this week saw a bit of an unusual event as Vince McMahon, Triple H, Stephanie McMahon and Kevin Dunne were all absent from the RAW tapings. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported the reason why they missed the tapings and also went on to reveal a rather surprising and lesser-known name that was handling RAW in their place....

The concern may very well also stem from the fact that on Monday Night Raw, The Cruiserweights have gotten very little reaction overall. During its tenure, the Cruiserweight Classic was the hot topic and the most watched show on the WWE Network, even overtaking NXT. This led to a great deal of disappointment by the fans in the way they were handled on Raw. The main event of 205 Live’s first episode will be Cruiserweight Champion The Brian Kendrick putting his title on the line against Rich Swann....

Prior to his contract release, Ryback teased that he was going beyond the scope of wrestling, and would be pursuing other projects. He announced recently that he was launching merchandise and nutrition products using ‘Feed me more’, ‘The Big Guy’ and the ‘Ryback’ logo as well, which indicates that WWE does not have a trademark on these names. The 34-year-old also announced that he will be launching a motivational book as well....

The problem with Raw mainly comes from the three-hour format which tends to be too much to digest. It also overexposes main event talent and dilutes the product as a whole. This is where the Cruiserweight Division comes into the equation. Needing three hours to fill is not an easy task by any means, but having a division filled with unique talents from all walks of life and all ends of the earth certainly helps....

And now, his big return match has been announced - Morrison takes on Big E! So, why was Big E chosen as Morrison’s opponent for his comeback match? I will try and answer the question with 5 points in the following pages....

But why was Rowan chosen ahead of everyone else in this role? I shall explore all of the reasons in this article, and maybe you can chime in, in the comments section below.

The cage lowered around Rey before Roman walked out and said that it wasn’t his fault. Roman asked if Rey was ready to face him and Mysterio said he had never been more ready. Roman walked backstage after saying to Heyman that he tried to do things his way and give Rey a chance to walk away. Now, The Tribal Chief will do things his way! Apollo Crews & Commander Azeez vs....

Dolph went on one more of his rants about how it should’ve been him before he prepared for his match with Xavier Woods which was up next. Xavier Woods vs. Dolph Ziggler Dolph went for Woods’ legs right away but failed to get a submission. The two rolled around in the ring for a moment and then Woods hit a big dropkick. Dolph hit a neckbreaker and Woods hit a lariat before Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn attacked Big E and Kofi outside the ring....

The episode featured Bobby Lashley and Seth Rollins in the main event with a late interference from The Usos, an eight-man tag featuring Rey and Dominik Mysterio, and Kevin Owens declaring for the Royal Rumble. It was the second lowest attendance figure for the red brand since the company’s return to regular touring. During a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer reported that just over 3,000 ticket holders were present at Tulsa’s Bok Centre....

In case you didn’t know… Since departing from the WWE in 2016, Cody Rhodes has found an immense amount of success on the Independent Circuit and for promotions such as Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling, where the former WWE Intercontinental Champion has been massively successful within these past two years. Since making his debut for ROH and NJPW, Cody has gone on to become a one-time Ring of Honor World Champion and at this inaugural self-financed All In event, The American Nightmare also won the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship, a title which was once held by his legendary father Dusty Rhodes....

This year, WWE has jam-packed the Rumble with star power and the undercard has some interesting stories as well. In this list, we are going to take a look at the Royal Rumble match card for 2017....

The TV show, which is set to air its debut episode on Saturday at 8:00 P ET on Spike TV, will now be devoid of the presence of the soon-to-be WWE Hall of Famer. Former WWE stars Johhny Mundo, Rey Mysterio, PJ Black (Justin Gabriel) and Drew Galloway are all set to appear on the show, which would take place at the Dundee Ice Arena in Dundee, Scotland. 5 Star Wrestling issued the following statement on their Facebook page:...

In case you didn’t know… Finn Balor regained the Intercontinental title at WrestleMania 35 by defeating Bobby Lashley but hasn’t done much with the belt since then. Of course, that’s not exactly his fault, especially since he was hand-picked to compete in the Money In The Bank ladder match, but hopefully, WWE has some kind of plan going forward for the former Universal champion. Whether The WWE Universe likes it or not, the company has kind of dropped the ball on Balor in the past, which could mean that they will do the same if he is doesn’t come out the winner in the ladder match....

We don’t know if that will change anytime soon, but what’s changed is Strowman’s opponent for the TLC PPV. In case you didn’t know… Strowman has had an incredible year. He won the RAW tag team belts with a kid, won the Greatest Royal Rumble, and the Money in the Bank match, but a world title has eluded him. He has lost four matches for the Universal title this year, once to Reigns and the rest in matches with Lesnar....
