#1 Backstage WWE rumor claims that Vince McMahon wants to push Cal Bloom?

As per the latest rumors, second-generation WWE wrestler Cal Bloom is in line for a huge push. The backstage stories suggest that the youngster has impressed Vince McMahon and the WWE boss reportedly sees him as a future main-eventer in the company.

Bloom recently faced Sheamus, and his performance led many into believing in his caliber. Some went as far as comparing him to Edge, which speaks volumes about the positive reaction that he has fetched since his match against the ‘Celtic Warrior’ on SmackDown.

Talking about the backstage reaction to Bloom’s arrival in WWE and his growth since March, Paul Davis said,

This WWE rumor surrounding Cal Bloom could be huge for the youngster. All it took was one match for him to showcase his worth, and the officials seem impressed with his work. While Sheamus is now busy feuding with Jeff Hardy, Bloom might soon find himself involved in more compelling matches that will help him establish himself as a promising young talent.

Will Bloom make the best use of a huge opportunity that lies ahead of him? We certainly hope so.

#2 Brock Lesnar to take a long hiatus from WWE?

WWE Superstar Brock Lesnar lost his Universal Championship to Drew McIntyre to end their well-booked title feud to a deserving end at WrestleMania 36. The fact that Lesnar was impressed with the ‘Scottish Psychopath’ and made an extra effort to put him over made their storyline all the more interesting.

Ever since Lesnar lost his title, there have been several speculations about his future with the company. Now, the latest reports suggest that the ‘Beast Incarnate’ might take a long hiatus from WWE.

During the WWE’s Quarter 1 financial conference call, Vince McMahon reportedly said,

This comment caused Dave Meltzer to discuss Lesnar’s plausibly heading towards an extended hiatus from WWE. It shouldn’t come as a surprise for two big reasons. First, there aren’t many compelling storylines involving Brock Lesnar that can be booked in WWE right now. Secondly, his presence will end up, resulting in his involvement in the title picture – something that won’t sit well with WWE’s plans of pushing the current world title-holders.

Therefore, it is quite possible that we won’t see the former Universal Champion make an appearance in the next few WWE PPVs.

#4 Huge plans for AJ Styles’ return?

It is not an exaggeration to say that AJ Styles has had a strange few weeks. After he main-evented the first night of WrestleMania 36 with his memorable match against The Undertaker, it was expected that he is set for a hot run on RAW. The ‘Boneyard Match’ also featured Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows, which implied that The OC are in line for a huge push.

Unfortunately, Anderson and Gallows were released from WWE last month as a cost-cutting measure to tackle the economic implications of Covid-19. Now that Styles is once again on his own, there have been speculations about how WWE will book his return to TV.

As reported by John Pollock of Post Wrestling, the ‘Phenomenal One’ could come back as a participant in the “Last Chance” Gauntlet match to determine the last entrant in the Men’s Money in the Bank match. This decision was made after Apollo Crews, who had previously qualified for the MITB match, was ruled out from action after sustaining an injury during his match against Andrade.

#5 Why WWE didn’t release Bo Dallas?

The long list of WWE Superstars who were shockingly released last month also included the name of Curtis Axel. This led to a lot of fans to question why he was let go but not his tag-team partner, Bo Dallas. However, the recent reports by Wrestling Observer Newsletter seem to offer an explanation behind this decision made by WWE.

It appears that WWE had nothing in store for Axel and they didn’t know the best way to use the 40-year-old Superstar. Throwing light on the situation, WON noted,

Bo Dallas, on the other hand, is only 29 and still has a lot of time to rebuild his identity as a WWE Superstar. WWE might use this opportunity to determine what would be the best way to use Dallas, now that he is all by himself. Could we see him pursuing a singles career in the company or will he find a new tag team partner in WWE?
