6 wrestling rumors we hope are true and 6 we hope aren't: 3-time World Champion possibly retiring at WrestleMania 36, Returning star expected to eliminate Lesnar at Royal Rumble

#2. Hope is true: Kevin Owens to NXT in the future?

Kevin Owens on RAW

This is a bit of a mixed bag but there's a positive side to it. Tom Colohue revealed that Kevin Owens is in the shortlist of superstars to possibly return to NXT down the line.

He said:

There was a short list of people, in fact, there is a short list of people discussed between Triple H and Vince McMahon as to what superstars from raw/sd want to come to NXT. Asuka is someone I've mentioned to be on the list. She has been having a discussion on visiting or being involved in NXT. Kevin Owens is also on that list, someone who is interested in returning to NXT and that could happen at the next shakeup.

We can understand anyone objecting to this. Owens has a lot of momentum on RAW right now and is being pushed as a top babyface. However, the report didn't say that he would move immediately. It simply stated that he could go back down the line.

Finn Balor is enjoying success in NXT again and someday, Owens could return and give back as well, just like he did at WarGames this past November.
