Rumor Roundup: Another Potential Royal Rumble Return, Backstage Feeling On The Revival’s Future, More

Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.

5) Backstage Feeling On The Revival’s Future

According to journalist Tom Colohue, WWE is confident that they will be able to get The Revival to sign new contracts when their deals expire in 2020.

Here is what Colohue had to say:

In addition to that, we have the Revival, once again, increasingly confident of signing. There were discussions before the tag titles were taken away to whether or not that was a good move. Given that they are particularly confident with the company right now, in fact, the impression that I am getting is that the management is very confident that the Revival will sign a new contract. They are not particularly afraid of AEW attracting them away. They weren’t with Randy Orton either. That’s how that happened. They weren’t with Styles, that’s how that happened. It tends to be the case that once you are with the WWE it’s very hard to attract you away unless you are a very special case, example, Jon Moxley, who was attracted away.

My Take:

  • I am happy for The Revival as they are likely going to get well-paid on their upcoming contracts. I really do hope that their booking improves though if they do re-sign with WWE. They are a really talented team and we haven’t gotten to see them at their full capability on the WWE main roster.

4) Why Liv Morgan Was Added To The Lana-Rusev Storyline

According to WrestlingNews.co, Liv Morgan was not originally supposed to be involved in the storyline with Rusev, Lana, and Bobby Lashley.

This ended up getting changed after Paul Heyman decided that he wanted to push Liv. Here is what the site wrote:

I was told that Liv Morgan was not originally supposed to be in this storyline but plans changed and Paul Heyman wants to push her so the decision was made to have her involved in the wedding angle on Monday night.

My Take:

  • I was definitely not expecting Liv to be involved at the wedding. I hope that WWE does end up pushing her as she seems to be a talented performer. Don’t just use her as an extra that gets forgotten about in the storyline. Try to get her over and see what she can do as a singles star on RAW.
