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:
- Becky Lynch is currently scheduled to face Carmella one-on-one for the SmackDown Women’s Title at SummerSlam, per TicketDrew.
- On a recent Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer speculated WWE will take the titles off current champs Carmella and Alexa Bliss before the just announced all-women PPV in October because their “matches have not been good,” and “that’s tough - because if you end [Evolution] with those two, there is going to be a struggle.”
- WWE is promoting a NXT UK Women’s title match for Evolution. PW Insider reports Jinny, Toni Storm, Charlie Morgan, Rhea Ripley, Dakota Kai and Tegan Nox will be at the new brand’s first tapings this weekend.
- PWG tweeted that Matt Riddle won’t be working BOLA this year as previously announced, another sign he could be WWE (or NJPW) bound soon.
