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.

Rumors for the Day:

• WWE updated their contracts to prohibit NXT UK talent from working with non-partner promotions and from wrestling against anyone who has a deal with Impact, Ring of Honor, New Japan or World of Sport, says WrestleTalk.
• Per PW Insider, the partner promotions talent can work for are Progress, ICW, WXW, Fight Club Pro, Attack! Pro, OTT and Futureshock.
• Braun Strowman’s promo on Raw has led to a lot of speculation his injury may be worse than feared and he could miss TLC. Pro Wrestling Sheet reports he reaggravated the elbow at Survivor Series.
• Bray Wyatt was backstage at Raw and is ready to return when WWE finds the right angle for him.
• Tough injury news for MLW, as their Middleweight champ MJF revealed he’s out 4 - 6 weeks with a broken elbow, and Tom Lawlor broke his hand in his MMA fight on Saturday. Lawlor was scheduled to face Simon Gotch at their next taping.
