Rumor Roundup: Brock Lesnar’s Status For The Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania Booking, More

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

5) The Booking Of Wrestlemania 37

According to Dave Meltzer in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there is only one match finalized for Wrestlemania 37 right now.

Those in WWE say that there has never been a situation where they left the planning for the event this late:

 Those who have been around the company for a long period say that there’s never been a situation where this late in the game so little has been locked in and even teased on television. 

My Take:

  • It will be interesting to see what the card ends up looking like for the event. This could be good news or it could be a complete disaster. Only time will tell.

4) WWE Planning Lengthy Rehearsals For The Royal Rumble

According to Sean Ross Sapp on Fightful Select (subscribe here), WWE is planning longer rehearsals for the Royal Rumble matches this year. Talent will reportedly be practicing the matches from Noon to 6 PM on Saturday.

Here is what Sapp wrote:

Last year, WWE had the women’s Rumble broken down into two sections to set up the match to streamline the process. However, there were said to have been issues getting the rehearsal started due to tardiness, so they blocked off a larger period of time this year in the afternoon, as opposed late into the night like last year.

My Take:

  • I am excited for both Rumble matches. I am also intrigued to see how it will be without any crowd.
