One of the topics that will be addressed is the brutal bump Jeff Hardy suffered on RAW and what the possible ramifications of that could be. Apart from that, we will take a look at why two top RAW Superstars are possibly being punished by Vince McMahon.

So without further ado, let us jump into the big stories and rumours from the day.

#5 Reason why WWE placed a 20-month ban on Brock Lesnar working for another promotion

While speaking on his podcast - Something to Wrestle - Bruce Prichard talked about the 20-month ban WWE had placed on Brock Lesnar working for another wrestling company after his release in 2004.

Brock Lesnar had chosen to leave WWE just 2 years after his debut. The reason behind his decision was the tough schedule and life on the road. Even though Brock Lesnar had received a major push almost instantly, even winning the WWE Championship at the age of 25, Lesnar was not happy with the company.

Brock Lesnar returned to WWE in 2012 and has been working on a limited schedule since then. Reports indicated that Brock Lesnar has not re-signed with WWE and is currently a free agent.

#4 Vince McMahon got angry with Mia Yim for losing mask on WWE RAW?

This week on RAW, RETRIBUTION member Mia Yim aka Reckoning accidentally unmasked during her match with Dana Brooke. The decision came as a surprise to everyone as it was expected that Yim would be getting a big win on WWE RAW.

As per Vince Russo, the reason why Mia Yim lost her match was precisely because she lost her mask during her match. Speaking on SportsKeeda’s Legion of RAW, he stated that it is likely that she was set to win the match but Vince McMahon changed his mind after getting angry at her for unmasking.

It will be interesting to see if WWE will continue to de-push Mia Yim or if she will rebound from her recent loss.

#3 Update on Jeff Hardy after scary spot on WWE RAW

Jeff Hardy suffered a gruesome injury on RAW this week during his match with Elias. The two men faced each other in a Symphony of Destruction match which was won by the Charismatic Enigma. However, at the end of the match as soon as Hardy landed the Swanton Bomb on Elias, his head hit the steel steps in brutal fashion.

Bryan Alvarez of WOR revealed that from what he has heard, Jeff Hardy is okay and has not suffered a severe injury.

Jeff Hardy is known as a daredevil and it is risky moves like these that have catapulted the WWE Superstar into becoming a fan favourite.

#2 Reason for WWE Superstar Elias being buried

When Elias returned a few months back, it was reported that the former 24/7 Champion will be getting a big push in WWE. However, The Drifter is back in his old spot of losing consistently and floundering in the mid-card.

Speaking on SportsKeeda’s Legion of RAW, Vince Russo stated that a possible reason for Elias being buried could be his own creativity. Russo suggested that WWE is not fond of Superstars who come up with too many ideas of their own. This could be the reason why WWE is holding Elias back.

Elias has proven time and again that he can be a great heel and hopefully he will get a big push before it is too late.

#1 Keith Lee breaks silence on major changes made to him on the WWE main roster

Keith Lee is a former NXT Champion and one of the most popular Superstars to have come out of WWE’s Black and Gold brand. However, fans were upset with his debut as WWE had altered Lee’s attire as well as his iconic theme music from NXT.

Speaking to Sports Illustrated, Keith Lee talked about how he has to do things to keep ’the people he works for’ happy. Keith Lee admitted that he did not want to change his attire but it was something that had to be done.

Keith Lee recently lost a triple threat match to AJ Styles on RAW.
