Speculating on the rumors surrounding pro wrestling is a favored pastime of many fans, perhaps second only to actually watching the matches. In this daily column, we take a look at the latest rumors being churned out by the pro wrestling rumor mill.
Important reminder: Rumors are just that -- rumors. None of this has been confirmed as legitimate news or fact, it's just circulating around the pro wrestling rumor mill. Remember, take it all with a grain of salt.
Rumors for the Day:
- What happened with Dean Ambrose last night was a television write off so he could leave to film Lockdown, the movie he'll be starring in for WWE Studios and Lionsgate. It's expected he'll be back in time for Hell in a Cell and it's also expected he will resume his feud with Seth Rollins.
- Brock Lesnar is not currently advertised for Night of Champions but it is still expected that he will be working the show. It appears a rematch with John Cena is on that show, but that could change between now and then.
- There are some odd rumors circulating that Vince McMahon and Triple H are butting heads over the main event of WrestleMania 31, apparently incorrectly attributed to Dave Meltzer at the Observer. The rumor is that Triple H wants Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns and Vince wants Brock Lesnar vs. The Rock. Take this one with an even bigger grain of salt than normal.
- Fernando of Los Matadores is apparently back out on the road with WWE and ready to get back to work at any time.
- There are apparently some wrestlers in WWE who are interested in working for New Japan. The word going around is that New Japan is the hot spot where most stateside talent not signed to WWE -- and even some that are -- are hoping to end up.
