Today's rumors from cageside seats

Rumors for the Day:

• While WWE is going with the idea Seth Rollins will make it back in time for WrestleMania 33, they're still making plans for Triple H in case he doesn't.
• WWE wants to get both Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman over at Fastlane while also protecting both guys. Don't be surprised if they have a creative finish or post-match angle to help that along.
• Naomi won the SmackDown women's title so she could go into WrestleMania 33 as champion because she's from Orlando.
• Expect Baron Corbin to take the Intercontinental championship off Dean Ambrose at some point, possibly WrestleMania 33.

 

That second rumor has Taker interference written all over it

 

3 is such a stupid reason; it can only be a dirtsheet narrative. who the shit thinks about Orlando when they think about Naomi.

 

Meltzer was saying it was the reason. He said it during that clip that was on Reddit about the You Deserve It chant.

 

IT was from yesterday's observer radio.

 

This week, WWE tries to get Roman over for the 99th time.

Why even book a match between them if both are gonna be protected like that?

 

the naomi orlando thing is so fucking weird....especially since, i mean, how 'local' is wrestlemania anyways.

 

people will cheer for naomi anyway so they can say her hometown crowd is rooting her on. corbin should take the title from dean AT wrestlemania, not anytime before, or after. for the love of god don't do a ladder match for it, give that to the cruiserweights, or hell, put the womens money in the bank on the show.

taker is going to interfere giving braun the win. it will literally be the same thing as the rumble - roman is about to win and good god the lights go out. powerslam - 1 2 3.

 

The mixed tag match needs to end with Nikki and Cena applying the STF simultaneously on Maryse and Miz

 

*double skull crushing finales*

in all seriousness, im actually pumped to watch maryse wrestle again

 

They should just make Orton compete at Mania and throw Harper and AJ into the match to make it a fatal 4 way for the title. But that just makes too much sense.

 

@Henry whats the rule on nxt taping spoilers in here?

 

Just spoiler tag them in here with NXT at the top. I think most people who are reading Mania spoilers are reading NXT spoilers, so I don't think we need to be too careful, but just to be safe, we'll tag em.

 

NXT Tapings

Looks like The Drifter is heading up to the main roster. Well, him or Ohno. Drifter vs. Ohno in a loser leaves NXT match tonight.
Edit: One of the next few Monday's or Tuesdays may be awesome for us Drifter fans

 

Where's he fit on the WM card?!?!

 

winning the battle royal. lol

 

NXT
Shinsuke Nakamura over TJ Perkins. After the match, Bobby Roode came down to tell the former champ that the show’s over and it’s time to go. When Nakamura refused to leave, Andrade “Cien” Almas came out to put the boots to him and Roode joined in. They beat him down until Finn Balor made the save!

 

damn wwe you sure do love to spoil surprises on social media, clip of NXT finn's save of nakamura already up on instagram

 

Back to NXT?

Spoilers have Balor saying he was coming back for the title soon.

 

He's looks super healthy

 

I think you are reading into that wrong. Or they are.

 

I think so too. Wouldn't make sense.

 

what a small crowd?

 

probably a bit bigger than the normal nxt taping crowd. they filmed in a larger arena for this set of shows
