Rumor Roundup (Oct. 6, 2018): The Rock return, Rey Mysterio, Hulk Hogan, Pete Dunne injury, 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. We track rumor accuracy in a weekly feature called Rumor Look Back you can find here. Remember, take it all with a grain of salt.

Rumors for the Day:

• WWE is trying to get The Rock for SmackDown 1000, per the Observer.
• They also say Rey Mysterio’s first match back with WWE will likely be on SmackDown but that may not necessarily be the brand he sticks with going forward.
• WWE promoting the nWo reunion later this month has led to more speculation Hulk Hogan will be back on television for the company sooner rather than later.
• According to the Observer, Pete Dunne is currently dealing with a foot injury that isn’t expected to keep him out of action.
• The Wrestling Observer Newsletter notes there is talk of an ALL IN 2 and even ALL IN 3 and Memorial & Labor Day are both being talked about with locations possible in Chicago and Southern California.
