WWE.com

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:

  • Ryan Satin of Pro Wrestling Sheet says his sources tell him the Braun Strowman injury announced on Raw is “part of the storyline and not legit.”
  • Which is in line with an earlier report from Sportskeeda that Extreme Rules will feature a Strowman/Roman Reigns ambulance match to blow-off their feud.
  • It’s expected that Kevin Owens will regain the United States title tonight on SmackDown.
  • Adam Cole’s Ring of Honor (ROH) contract expired on April 30. It’s expected we’ll know more about his future plans this month.
  • Summer Rae was reportedly in Sacramento at the same time as Raw. While she obviously wasn’t used, it is believed she’ll be back with WWE soon.

If you have heard of any interesting rumors that you'd like to add, feel free to post them in the comments section below. Just remember they are rumors and not confirmed as fact, so please take them as such. Have fun with it.
