Rumor Roundup: Vince’s late rewrites, Zelina’s Twitch money, new NXT name, more!

WWE Network

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:

  • According to Wrestling Observer Radio’s Dave Meltzer, Vince McMahon tore up the script for last Friday’s SmackDown “on Thursday night/Friday morning” and rewrote it. No one else involved in the show had the new script until late afternoon.
  • Changes included Chelsea Green being added to the Women’s Survivor Series qualifier, and booking the Seth Rollins/Rey Mysterio blowoff.
  • Meltzer also said on WOR that Zelina Vega was making more money from her work on Twitch and other services than she was from her WWE.
  • Ethan Page & Taya Valkyrie’s Impact Wrestling contracts expire at the end of the year, per PW Insider.
  • Insider also reports that recent Performance Center signee Brandi Lauren’s WWE name will be Skyler Storey.
