Also, Carmelo Hayes will face a surprise opponent of Nick Aldis' choosing. A recent report has noted that Hayes' opponent will be none other than Braun Strowman who could make the move to the blue brand amid ongoing roster shuffles.


#3. Chelsea Green favorite to win the Women's United States Championship

Chelsea Green will take on Bayley in the semifinal of the ongoing Women's United States Championship Tournament. The 33-year-old is one of the favorites to go all the way and a recent report from Dr. Chris Featherstone has noted the same.

Green has been doing some of the best work of her career since returning to WWE last year and many want her to be rewarded for the same by being crowned the inaugural Women's United States Champion.


#2. DDP praises AJ Styles

AJ Styles is widely regarded as one of the greatest pro wrestlers of all time. The Phenomenal One recently received huge praise from another legend Diamond Dallas Page. DDP noted that Styles is a first-ballot Hall of Famer without any question.

"AJ [Styles] is one of the greatest of all time and absolutely first-ballot Hall of Famer. I mean, he's phenomenal for shoot [for real], and there are times I'll just text him over the years, and I was like, 'You really are Superman,'" Diamond Dallas Page said.

Styles is currently on the sidelines after suffering an injury during his match against Carmelo Hayes. There is no timeline for his return.


#1. WWE legend confirms he will never wrestle again

Over the years, we have seen numerous legends and hall of famers come out of retirement for another run or final match. However, that won't be the case for DDP as the WWE legend recently confirmed that he is retired for good when asked about another potential match:

"No [laughs]. It's so important for me, my body feels good," said DDP.

DDP had a short first stint in the global juggernaut as he was a part of the company for just a year. However, he was a major name for WCW and won the world title on three occasions.
