Rumors for the Day:

• There’s word going around that Samoa Joe is main roster bound, with Royal Rumble being the latest he’ll show up.
• Expect Baron Corbin to move into SmackDown’s title picture in the first half of 2017.
• Lana is scheduled to wrestle in tag matches at a couple NXT Florida house shows this weekend, reportedly to work on fundamentals for occassional spots and bumps - not because she’s going to pushed as a wrestler.
• Pro Wrestling Sheet reports the Total Divas graphic which left Naomi out and caused a stir online was an oversight by the WWE graphics department which was fixed by the time SmackDown’s replay was posted to Hulu.
• Paige posted a cryptic Tweet which read “When you do nothing wrong but things still bite you in ass for no reason. Always fun haha.” yesterday, leading to more speculation she’s in trouble with WWE again just as her latest suspension is almost up. Then she deleted it.
