Rumor Roundup: WWE Planning To Shake Things Up, Big Name Backstage At Hell In A Cell, More

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

5) Another Hint About Two Future NXT Call-Ups

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, there is talk of WWE bringing Karrion Kross and Scarlett Bordeaux back to this week’s episode of Smackdown. This comes after they were backstage at the latest episode of Smackdown.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

There was talk last night that Kross and Scarlett would be brought back next week, possibly to do some promos.  We have not heard if there was a plan for Reed to do the same.  

My Take:

  • This definitely has me thinking that Kross and Scarlett are coming up to the main roster soon. Vince must be really interested to have them come back twice in a row.

4) Backstage Praise For The Current Crop Of Talent At The WWE Performance Center

According to Dave Meltzer in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there is a lot of praise backstage for the “real athletes” that are at the WWE Performance Center. This includes Parker Boudreaux, who is the biggest name of the bunch.

Here is what Meltzer wrote:

People are heavily praising the potential of the “real athletes” in camp right now.

All were praised for how well they were picking things up, conditioning and attitude. Parker Boudreaux, who has a lot of attention due to his similarities physically with Brock Lesnar, was distinctly not mentioned as being in the same category as the others.

My Take:

  • Parker has a lot of hype behind him. I am excited to see how he does in the future.
