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:
- The belief is that a Randy Orton vs. AJ Styles feud over the WWE title is still the plan for SmackDown and everything now is just a holdover to get them there.
- The Observer notes there are no plans for Paige within WWE even when she is recovered from neck surgery.
- A big reason WWE wants to use the "Broken" gimmick for the Hardys is because they think they can move a lot of merchandise with it.
