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:

  • A new Fightful Select report on Paul Heyman’s time as Raw Executive Director says he designed the post-2019 Draft roster with an emphasis on more polished, underutilized workers. He even passed on established names like Braun Strowman for that reason.
  • Some sources told the site Triple H could have had the Raw job if he’d wanted it. Stephanie McMahon didn’t want it either; she was happy with her Chief Brand Officer position.
  • On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer said AJ Styles’ bodyguard Jordan Omogbehin is in that role because his ring work hasn’t been impressive.
  • Mance Warner asked to be let out of his MLW contract according to bodyslam.net, but the company denied his request.
  • Earlier this month, bodyslam’s Cassidy Haynes reported AEW & Warner were interested in working together.
