Rumor Roundup (July 7, 2015): Steve Austin WWE deal, Dolph Ziggler injury, Roddy Piper podcast, more!

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:

• Stone Cold Steve Austin's involvement in the WWE 2K16 video game is unlikely to lead to another match but he's apparently going to be making a few more appearance for the company in the near future. He's also expected to work WrestleMania 32.

• Dolph Ziggler's injury from Raw last night is storyline and he's not expected to miss any time.

• According to the Observer, the reason Roddy Piper left Podcast One is because he asked out of his contract and "any other story is fantasy."

• The Observer also notes that Shinsuke Nakamura and Kazuchika Okada did not receive WWE tryouts recently.

• According to PW Insider, the idea that TNA pitched to Ring of Honor was that a ROH wrestler would attack a TNA star then lose to said star at a TNA event. That's why it never came to pass.
