#2. Braun Strowman comments on missing WrestleMania 41

#3. Kevin Owens' in-ring career is over?

Kevin Owens recently shared heartbreaking news as he revealed that he was dealing with a neck injury and needed time off for surgery. Neck injuries are often career-altering and have forced many notable names to hang up their boots.

Dutch Mantell believes that the same could be the case for The Prizefighter and that we may never see back in the squared circle again:

"Now, he says, you know, he's still waiting on Kevin Owens, and they may just be trying to get some time out of this to see if Kevin can come back. But he won't be ready in a month. He won't be ready in three months, maybe six. It could be we'll never see him again. I hope not, but because he was getting a little bit of attention on him," he added.

#4. Nia Jax's return teased

Nia Jax has not competed in a match on WWE TV since Elimination Chamber and is not involved in any storyline heading into WrestleMania 41.

While the former WWE Women's Champion is most likely set to miss the upcoming premium live event, she was advertised on the poster for WrestleMania 41, sparking speculations that she could be involved in some way at the show.
