WWE Rumor Roundup: Royal Rumble winner rejects AEW offer, major push planned for 5 RAW Superstars and more – 26 December 2019

Plans for Aleister Black and Buddy Murphy

Aleister Black and Buddy Murphy are involved in a feud right now and it looks like WWE are high on them. Earlier in the roundup, we revealed that Paul Heyman is looking to push the two of them in 2020 and now, Dave Meltzer has some in-depth reports on the same.

He claims that the plan is to have Black as the big babyface while Murphy goes on to become the big heel. The rumours of them becoming a tag-team have been rebuffed.

Yeah, but it’s completely different. I think the plan long-term is for Buddy Murphy to be a big heel and Aleister Black to be a big babyface. So I don’t think they are going to be in a tag team anytime soon and both be singles stars. That’s the idea, you know it will probably get, I don’t want to say probably, there is always the chance, no matter what the plan is it gets derailed. It’s pretty high percentage when it comes to new stars, things get derailed. You know, way too high a percentage. It will be interesting to see if Vince green lights it or Vince gets bored with it.
