Speculation about pro wrestling rumors is perhaps second only to watching the matches themselves. This daily column looks at the latest pro wrestling rumors.
Today’s rumor:
BWE tweeted that WWE may add LA Knight to the Night of Champions lineup after sending him to Saudi Arabia this week as an unbooked talent. Street Profits are also in Jeddah ahead of Saturday’s PLE, and Rick Boogs has been specifically mentioned as an opponent.
According to WRKD Wrestling, Dominik Mysterio is being considered for the Money in the Bank ladder match. Backstages praise him and his growth as a performer, according to the tweet.
Seth Rollins was being considered as a potential champion prior to WrestleMania 39 when WWE decided whether to split the WWE & Universal championships.
According to Fightful Select’s WWE sources, Rollins’ work in the next Captain America film concerned higher-ups at the company: “The idea that this is anything but a positive is unrealistic.”
In addition to Mercedes Moné being scheduled to win the NJPW Strong Women’s title before her injury forced an audible, Dave Meltzer said the new belt was created just for her.
It was none other than AEW World Champion MJF who wrote the storyline for the entire ‘Four Pillars’ World Championship program, according to Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net.
