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 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:
- The Wrestling Observer Newsletter says that while there will be matches shot outside the Performance Center for WrestleMania 36, that venue will be the primary location for the two-night event.
- WrestleVotes says a source within WWE has word that a lot of wrestlers are still hoping WrestleMania 36 gets postponed.
- One of the matches planned for WrestleMania, although not finalized, was a six-way for the SmackDown women’s championship, with Bayley defending against Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans, Carmella, Naomi, and one other, per the WON.
- There are a lot of moving parts within AEW, says the Observer, and it’s not certain what the company will do with its weekly shows going forward. They do plan to have a show next week, at the very least.
- They also say it’s unclear if Blood & Guts will happen next week because AEW may not have made that decision yet.
