Rumors are floating around that WWE plans to add Charlotte Flair to the Wrestlemania 35 match with Becky Lynch and Ronda Rousey. They were supposedly planning a Triple Threat Match all along. This match is rumored to be the Main Event at Wrestlemania 35. The heat for this match would make it the first Women’s Main Event in Wrestlemania history.

 

Roman Reigns filming a movie so soon after leukemia diagnosis could be a good sign he will be returning to WWE sooner than expected.

Rumor has it that WWE has been offering big pay for wrestlers to re-sign. They are going all out to re-sign AJ Styles even offering major concessions on his work schedule. We shall find out this spring when his contract is up.

WWE is bringing back Halftime Heat for Sunday’s Super Bowl. The match will consist of Aleister Black, Velveteen Dream, and Ricochet vs. Johnny Gargano, Tommaso Ciampa, and Adam Cole in a Six Man Tag match. It will be live on the WWE platforms.
