WWE Rumor Roundup: CM Punk return update, two more former Champions returning to SmackDown - 30 September 2019

#2. Naomi reveals the reason for her absence

Naomi last wrestled on the Main Event taping at the end of July in a winning effort against Sarah Logan. The former SmackDown Women's Champion took to Twitter to disclose the reasons behind her hiatus.

The death of a loved one coupled with health issues forced Naomi to stay away from the ring.

She wrote:

"I've faced some trying times the past few months...losing a loved one so dear to me (rocked me to my core) & handling my own health issues I wasn't aware of forced me to slow down & reevaluate...I want my loving fans to know that I'm ok and will be back when the time is right."

We still don't know the exact date of Naomi's return, however, with major changes taking place in the WWE along with the Draft which is just around the corner, we're sure the company will need her services sooner rather than later.

#3. The Usos returning to SmackDown on Friday

As reported by WrestlingInc, The Usos will make their TV return on the SmackDown episode this Friday.

The 6-time Tag Team Champions have been out of action since the RAW episode on July 29th when they were involved in a Tag Team match.

Jimmy Uso's DUI arrest on July 25th was the reason behind WWE taking the talented tag team off TV. They were unable to compete at SummerSlam in Toronto earlier this year due to Jimmy's arrest in Pensacola.

SmackDown's 20th Anniversary episode is expected to be the biggest show of the year and getting back one of the most successful tag teams of this generation makes complete sense on paper.
