Rumor Roundup Special Spoiler Edition: Surprise appearance on WWE Raw tonight (Mar. 23, 2015), possible tribute to Perro Aguayo, Jr., Hall of Fame announcement

If it's a Monday on the road to WrestleMania, it must means that rumors for tonight's Raw that came out after Randall Ortman's usual Rumor Roundup deadline are floating around.

As was the case last week, one of these may be used on the show to surprise and pop the audiences in Los Angeles and watching on television at home, so last warning...

PWInsider.com actually brings us the same spoiler they brought us last week - that Sting is in Los Angeles and is expected to be used on tonight's show. Mike Johnson and team proved right on this for the big, show closing moment on March 16th were the Stinger ran in to help Randy Orton clear out The Authority. No details on how the vigilante will be used, but WWE has been hyping a response from his WrestleMania opponent Triple H for tonight, so perhaps a response to the response will lead to to a face-off.

WrestlingInc.com has a photo showing a camera crew shooting Roman Reigns at his Florida home chillaxing with what looks to be his pops Sika (one half of the Wild Samoans tag team) and his brother Rosey (who worked in the 3 Minute Warning and Rosey & The Hurricane duos). It's expected this will be used as a vignette pushing Reigns' "all about family" angle heading into his match against Brock Lesnar.

The other rumor floating around is a little dicier, and comes from notorious reddit poster MetsFan4Ever. That report says that Vince McMahon, Triple H and Kevin Dunn have discussed dedicating tonight's show to Perro Aguayo, Jr., who died following his match with Rey Mysterio in Tijuana, Mexico this weekend. According to the poster, one of those three men was in favor of recognizing Perro, while the other two were not. It's said the main reason given for not mentioning his passing were not that it would make wrestling look bad or dangerous, but that there's concern that it would bring wrongfully negative attention to Mysterio.

Should WWE go through with a tribute, it would just be a graphic at the outset of the show. No storylines would be altered, nor would any WWE officials discuss his death on camera.

Finally, it's expected that Kevin Nash will finally be unveiled as the last member of the 2015 Hall of Fame class tonight on Raw. Word remains that he'll be inducted as his Diesel character.
