Rumor Roundup: Backstage Issues At RAW, Two Members Of Retribution Possibly Revealed, More

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

5) Backstage Meeting Held At RAW

According to Dave Meltzer of F4Wonline, there was a backstage meeting at this week’s episode of RAW. This was in order to clarify the story about WWE banning Superstars from using third-party platforms. It turns out that Superstars will still be able to use Youtube and Twitch but they have to use their real names (instead of their character names):

At Raw today, it was clarified that talent will be able to maintain both YouTube and Twitch accounts, but would have to do so using their real names as opposed to their WWE ring names. They were told they would have to inform the company of YouTube and Twitch accounts using their real names.

It is also believed that Cameo will no longer be allowed but that wasn’t made clear:

Nothing was made clear of exactly what won’t be allowed although the belief was that Cameo wouldn’t be allowed but we were told that was still super vague.

My Take:

  • My prediction is that WWE is starting their own cameo-type service to do virtual meet and greets with fans. That is why they are going to ban cameo. I am glad that talent is still allowed to use the other platforms.

4) Two Members Of Retribution Possibly Revealed

A Reddit user was able to pitch down the voices from the Retribution promo from RAW. During this, the voices sound a lot like Dominik Dijakovic and Mercedes Martinez.

Here is the clip:

My Take:

  • Dominik Dijakovic seems like a lock to me based on his size and voice. I could see the other one being either Mercedes or Mia Yim. We will have to wait and see.
