WWE Rumors Round Up: Backstage Update on Bray Wyatt
Bray Wyatt was on the road to prepare for his match against Bobby Lashley at WrestleMania 39. Suddenly, Bray Wyatt was taken off the air, and that bout was dropped from the show by WWE. Unfortunately, only a little has changed despite our brief update.
The most recent rumor from Ringside News states that Wyatt is still not cleared to appear on this week’s episodes of RAW and SmackDown, which is why he missed them. According to the claim, everything about Wyatt is top-secret material that isn’t being revealed to any sources.
One of the WWE creative staff members told Ringside News, “No one here knows – high-level information, and it’s not slowing down.”
After being spotted near WrestleMania, Wyatt became an essential topic of discussion the whole weekend. However, despite the WWE Universe’s fervent desire for The Eater of Worlds to return, it appears that wasn’t physically possible. There doesn’t appear to be a timeline for Wyatt’s return to the WWE as of this writing, but the WWE Draught is anticipated to happen in about three weeks.
Roman Reigns Next Match Opponent and Schedule
On May 27 at Night of Champions in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Roman Reigns will wrestle his next WWE match. According to some reports, the Big Uce will be there despite the event’s theme that “the respective WWE champions would defend every championship.” But against whom will he defend his world titles?

There are a few candidates for the Saudi Arabia main event place, but opponents have yet to be named. Shinsuke Nakamura might use the momentum from his comeback to challenge Roman Reigns. In a post-SmackDown backstage interview, he did suggest pursuing the global championship.
WWE appears to be choosing an understated rival for The Tribal Chief at Night of Champions. Before his Universal Championship reign’s 1,000th-day celebration, his bout at the occasion might only be a formality. According to fate, Roman Reigns will reach that milestone on the exact day of the high-profile live event.

Cody Rhodes has some prior experience working as an actor. He played the villain Derek Sampson on multiple episodes of Arrow, who became painless after tumbling into a vat of the narcotic stardust. Rhodes appeared in TNT/TBS programs like Go Big Show and his wife Brandi’s reality show, Rhodes To The Top, while he was a member of AEW.
Injury Status of Ronda Rousey
WWE was forced to significantly alter its initial plans for Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler at WrestleMania 39 after Rousey sustained an arm injury. They were expected to take home the Women’s Tag Team championships during the event. Instead, they focused on the four-way tag team bout at WrestleMania, with Rousey being guarded and given limited time to compete.
According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio, Rousey still needs medical clearance. She is still battling with the issue.
As for the Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler thing that was the idea, Meltzer said, “Well, you know the deal is there…Ronda Rousey is still not cleared.”
