Welcome to another edition of the daily WWE Rumor Roundup where we try and bring you the biggest WWE news and rumors and stories from the day.

In today's edition of the roundup, we will take a look at the unfortunate injury suffered by a recently released Superstar in a car accident, Mandy Rose's real-life relationship status and how her boyfriend has reacted to her storyline with Otis, among other stories.

The Rock has also stated that he may be open to a return for a match against one of the biggest SmackDown stars.

So without further ado, let us take a look at the five biggest topics of today:

#4 Dan Matha in an unfortunate car-crash

WWE had made the announcement in regards to the release of multiple WWE Superstars due to the budget cuts. However, multiple NXT Superstars were also released by the company.

Some of the names released by the company included Deonna Purrazzo, Taynara Conti, Tino Sabatelli, MJ Jenkins, and Dan Matha. Whereas top names like Rusev, Zack Ryder, Kurt Angle, and Sarah Logan were released from the main roster among others.

Dan Matha confirmed his release on Twitter and also revealed that he had been in a gruesome car accident. The former WWE Superstar also showed pictures of his injuries after the crash, which you can check here.

Here is what Matha's tweet stated:

Boy do I have a crazy ass story to tell all of u. From the world getting locked down, too getting ejected through my car window and then being released by the Wwe. It’s been a wild, I mean WILD 21 days. Tune in to my IGlive at 1 & I’ll Drop all the details ur little heart could desire.

Dan Matha has been contracted with the WWE since 2015 and it is very saddening that he was released by the company during these tough times.

#4 Mandy Rose's real-life boyfriend's reaction to story with Otis

Mandy Rose's ongoing love saga involving her current on-screen boyfriend Otis, ex-Dolph Ziggler, and former best friend Sonya Deville is one of the hottest storylines going on in WWE today.

At WrestleMania 36, Otis managed to beat Dolph Ziggler with Mandy Rose coming to the aid of the Heavy Machinery member - ending her relationship with Dolph Ziggler in the process.

While speaking to Kate McCrea of TVSeriesHub, Mandy Rose opened up about her real-life relationship and how her partner feels about the story where she is dating Otis:

My boyfriend doesn’t have an issue with it. It’s all a storyline and entertainment. If he got jealous of this, or if any guy did, it wouldn’t work out, honestly.

This week on SmackDown, we saw Sonya Deville finally turn on Mandy Rose outright, setting up the stage for a likely mixed tag-team program between Otis and Mandy Rose against Dolph Ziggler and Sonya Deville.

It will be interesting to see how this story of love and betrayal unfolds in the coming time.

#3 Reason why Gallows and Anderson did not leave WWE earlier

WWE recently released multiple Superstars in one-go owing to budget cuts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Two Superstars who were included in these cuts were OC members Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson.

While all other Superstars hadn't been used much recently, these two former RAW Tag Team Champions were involved in WrestleMania 36 as well. However, the reason believed for their release is that the two had wanted to leave WWE before they were given a significant raise by the company.

Here is what SportsKeeda's Tom Colohue has reported:

No. They didn't ask for their release, umm, they were making $750,000 a year. They are not going to, you know, they didn't want to stay for what they were offered but when it got to 750, you get to a number where it's all of sudden like, 'Okay, we're not going to anywhere close to that elsewhere and it's like they hit a number.' At $500,000 they were willing to go, but $750,000, that was a different mentality.

#2 The Rock may return to face Roman Reigns

The Rock recently participated in an Instagram Live session and talked about a potential return. On being asked if he would be open to facing his cousin Roman Reigns, The Brahma Bull stated that he would be open to returning and facing The Big Dog.

However, he did state that the venue and the time must be right in order for him to return.

Is The Rock vs. Roman Reigns possibile? Yeah, I think anything is possible. Sure, of course. I'm always open and you know that's the cool thing about the world of professional wrestling. There is adaptability to wrestling and you know, you never say never in the world of pro wrestling.

He also said that it is hard to say no to Vince McMahon, as he considers McMahon a close friend and mentor. He further added that Roman Reigns is very close to him, as they are family. He also stated that he thinks for something like that to happen, the venue would have to be right.

#1 The Undertaker's reaction to Drew McIntyre's new look

WWE Champion Drew McIntyre was recently part of Lillian Garcia's podcast - Chasing Glory - and spoke about a variety of topics, including the reaction he got from The Undertaker when he changed his look.

In his first run with the company, McIntyre never had a proper beard but the Scottish Psychopath changed up his look when he returned to WWE as part of NXT and has kept it ever since then.

However, McIntyre, who was 24 at the time, did try to grow a beard during his first run as well, and it was at that time that The Undertaker had taken a light-hearted jibe at the former Intercontinental Champion.

“When I tried to grow a beard for the first time, he said, ‘I’ve got more hair on my a** than you’ve got on your face, boy.’ (H/T: SportsKeeda)

The Undertaker was last seen in the Boneyard match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania which he won. Drew McIntyre, on the other hand, won the WWE Championship at the same show.
