Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.
5) Injury Update On NXT Star
The latest episode of NXT was supposed to feature a Fight Pit match between Timothy Thatcher and Tommaso Ciampa. This match ended up getting scrapped after WWE announced that Thatcher was injured.
According to Mike Johnson of PWinsider, Thatcher is not actually injured. This was just used as a cover story so they could push back the match:
The announced Timothy Thatcher injury pushing his Fight Pit bout against Tommaso Ciampa is storyline. There was a decision made to push the Fight Pit back and this was the cover story.
My Take:
- I think they made the right decision as the last episode of NXT was already loaded. Might as well save it for a show where it will get more time.
4) Update On Fans At The Royal Rumble
According to Jon Alba, the current plan is for the Royal Rumble to be held without any fans in attendance.
Here is what Alba Tweeted:
My Take:
- I am surprised as I figured that WWE would try to do a limited audience for the show. Hopefully they can do something to keep the electricity of the event.
