The historic show, which will take place on October 16, is already promising former stars of the Blue brand, including Batista, who will reunite with his Evolution team-mates.

The New World Order are rumoured to reunite, on WWE Television, after the company promoted the historic group.

The team of Hogan, Nash, and Hall have been appearing regularly together for several months now, and have promised a shocking announcement for the end of October.

Hogan was fired from WWE in 2015 after a series of videos were leaked showing Hogan using slurs.

The Hulkster was re-instated into the WWE Hall of Fame earlier this year, with the company citing Hogan's consistent apologies and charitable work with the Boys and Girls Club of America.

According to the Observer, current WWE UK Champion Pete Dunne is dealing with a foot injury, though not a serious one.

The foot injury is not expected to keep Dunne out for long, who is close to reaching Brock Lesnar's record for the longest reigning champion in modern history.

Dunne captured the United Kingdom Championship at NXT TakeOver: Chicago in May last year, defeating the inaugural champion, Tyler Bate.

It is expected that Dunne will carry the title into the debut of the NXT UK brand, which will be produced in Britain.

#2 ALL IN 2 and 3

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that both ALL IN 2 and ALL IN 3 are both being discussed, after the success of the first show.

According to the Observer, Memorial Day and Labor Day are being considered as potential dates for the shows, with places such as Chicago and Southern California leading the list of potential sites.

ALL IN took place in September this year, and has been regarded as a huge event for independent wrestling.

In the main event, Cody defeated Nick Aldis to capture the NWA Championship.

With Mysterio appearing at both the Royal Rumble in January and the Greatest Royal Rumble in April, many have speculated that a deal to bring Mysterio back to the company is a lock.

The Observer also notes that whilst Rey may return to SmackDown, he may not stick with the blue brand for his WWE return.
