Welcome to another edition of the WWE Rumor Roundup where we bring you the biggest updates from the wrestling world today.
From a major online brawl between sisters-in-law to The Fiend's new cryptic message, we have a stacked roundup for you today:
#5 Reby Hardy rips on Beth Hardy
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
It was recently reported that former WWE Champion Jeff Hardy found himself in trouble once again as the Superstar was arrested as he was found driving under influence in Moore County, North Carolina.
As the story unfolded, it was reported that Hardy had a bloody nose at the time which he attributed to a fight with his wife, Beth Hardy. He also admitted to having had two shots of vodka earlier in the night. However, it was also revealed that Hardy was majorly uncooperative during the tests he had to take.
Jeff's elder brother Matt Hardy had taken to Twitter in order to address the situation, where he stated:
Since so many have asked me about my brother. I love my brother & want him to be happy & healthy. I've expressed that to him as much as I can. Jeff has to make his decisions about his life. I have to focus on my 2 boys & soon to arrive son. I can only control MY actions.
These comments did not go well with Jeff Hardy's wife who also vented out her frustrations on Twitter, sparking an even more hard-hitting reply from Matt Hardy's wife - Reby Hardy.
The battle did not end here, as the former ECW Champion Matt Hardy also chimed in with his response to what Beth Hardy had stated:
I’ve been with Jeff since day 1, literally. I’ve been involved in a professional capacity with him for 28 years, one in which our actions effect one another. I don’t need permission to address MY brother, MY biz. Wrestling is not important now, my brother’s health is.
#4 Randy Orton to turn face
As per a recent report, WWE might be planning a major change for the character of The Viper in the coming weeks. Orton has portrayed a heel for a long time and while it can be argued that the former WWE Champion has always played the villain better than the hero, it is high time for the company to give Orton a fresh character and make him interesting again.
The observer has stated that Randy Orton may be going babyface soon, or at least that is what the WWE will test out.
#3 AJ Styles impressed with Undisputed Era?
The current US Champion and leader of the O.C, spoke to Instinct Culture and revealed which NXT Superstars have impressed him:
I think Adam Cole and his crew, I mean they are going to stand out, Velveteen Dream obviously, guys like that– and the girls- there is a lot of talent in NXT. It’s just whether or not they want to come to RAW or Smackdown and stay there in NXT, everybody’s on Television now so it’s beneficial to everyone.

A feud between The OC and the Undisputed Era is certainly something all the fans want to watch, and hopefully, it will happen sooner rather than later.
#2 Bray Wyatt leaves a cryptic comment
Bray Wyatt is not only the master of mind games on WWE television but social media platforms as well. As if Wyatt's appearances on WWE weren't creepy enough, the former WWE Champion makes sure that he continues to Tweet ambiguous and cryptic messages that leave everyone in confusion.
The Fiend has struck again, and posted a message which can be assumed to be directed towards Seth Rollins:
Some wear a mask to hide.
Some wear a mask to be free.
Some just wanna watch the world burn.
I saw you.
Everyone did.
While only Wyatt can be sure of what he meant by this message, it is clear that The Fiend has no plans of leaving Seth Rollins alone. Even on the previous episode of SmackDown, The Fiend targeted Seth Rollins yet again when he emerged from under the ring during Rollins' match with Roman Reigns and dragged the Universal Champion into the depths of hell.
With Wyatt being drafted to SmackDown, it will be interesting to see what is in store for The Fiend next.
#1 Tyson fury's promoter unhappy
Tyson Fury shocked the entire WWE Universe when he took on Braun Strowman on RAW this past week after entering into a verbal battle with the former Tag Team Champion. The Boxing Legend will be making his WWE debut at Crown Jewel on October 31st in Saudi Arabia in a match against The Monster Among Men.
Frank Warren, the promoter for lineal heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury recently spoke to Talksport and insinuated that he isn't happy with Fury's decision to fight for WWE:
“What can you say? He went out there to watch it and the next minute he’s involved in it, it’s unbelievable. But that’s Tyson. He’s supposed to be taking a rest and taking it easy, but he’s decided that he wants to do this and he’s going to do it… No he didn’t [discuss it with me]. He’s done it and we’ve discussed it afterwards. I’d be a liar if I said I was pleased with it, I’d prefer him not to do it but he’s doing it.”
