4 Interesting WWE Rumors From This Week

Everyone loves a good rumor right? Something to talk about over a water cooler.

In WWE, everything moves so fast. Not just the superstars in the ring, but all the latest news and rumors that reach the public every single day.

Survivor Series proved to be a historic night for the company, with RAW dominating SmackDown Live, winning 6-0 in inter-promotional matches on the main card.

With the November tradition behind us, the Superstars of both brand look forward to TLC, the final pay per view of 2018.

Here are four rumors from wrestling from this week that you really need to know.

Note: Please remember that every rumor presented here are just that, rumors, just to have fun with. Whilst some may seem more likely than others, please take all of them with a grain of salt.

#4. WWE is fine with Rousey getting boos

At WWE Survivor Series, RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey took on Charlotte Flair, who was replacing an injured Becky Lynch.

Despite being a face, Rousey received notable boos from the Los Angeles crowd, clearly showing support for the blue brand's Queen.

According to the Wrestling Observer though, "nobody of importance" was upset with the crowd's booing the Hot Rod, as the company have in recent years cared less about cheers and boos, preferring to just have any loud reaction instead.

The same report by Dave Meltzer also states that the assault by Flair on Rousey with a Kendo stick was a deliberate attempt to get the controversial second-generation star over with the crowd, as according to Meltzer, the WWE "wanted three super over women when this was over."

Clearly it worked, as fans chanted 'Thank You Charlotte' at the former champion, treating her similarly to the Lass Kicker, who is rumored to be facing Rousey at WrestleMania 35.

#3. AJ Styles still negotiating contract

When AJ Styles joined the WWE, debuting at the 2016 Royal Rumble, his contract was for an agreed three-year term.

According to PWInsider, his current contract is set to expire in April next year, and the WWE and the Phenomenal One are yet to reach an agreement on what the new contract will be.

A report suggests that Styles would like a more relaxed schedule, similar to fellow SmackDown star Randy Orton, which would allow AJ to appear on TV, but have limited WWE Live events.

It is believed Styles has asked for this, as his year-long reign as WWE Champion meant the former TNA star missed out on a lot of time with his wife and children, which Styles is clearly devoted to, as evident with his tattoo.

The PWInsider report also says Styles is in the top 1% of the roster in terms of compensation.

#2. Silas Young to join the WWE?

For those of you who may not be aware, Silas Young is one of Ring of Honor's hottest stars at the moment, and is a former two-time ROH World Television Champion.

According to several reports over the last week though, Young will be reportedly signing with the WWE when his contract expires with ROH next month.

If he does join the company, this won't be his first time in a WWE ring, as Young competed on Heat against Val Venis, and SmackDown against The Miz in 2007, before being signed to an OVW contract.

Leaving the WWE when they briefly severed ties with OVW, Young reappeared in February 2010, losing to Luke Gallows in so far, his final match working for the company.

Now, eight years later, it will certainly be interesting to see how 'the last real man' fares in the big league.

#1.Change of plans for Daniel Bryan

At Survivor Series 2018, the WWE Universe saw a very different side of Daniel Bryan.

After turning heel on SmackDown Live to win the WWE Championship, Bryan showed a new, cockier side at the pay per view, mocking his opponent, Universal Champion Brock Lesnar.

This new mean streak didn't pay off though, as whilst the YES! Movement leader pushed Brock to his limit, it was the Beast who emerged victorious, planting Bryan with an F5.

Before the match though, Bryan was asked about his actions on SmackDown Live, but opted not to answer, instead just grinning maniacally, before walking away.

According to rajah.com though, Bryan was supposed to give answers, which would've included Bryan relishing in how quickly your life can change, but still refuse to address the low-blow he gave to Styles.

Expect some more answers tonight on SmackDown Live, the first under the Bryan era.
