#5. Superstars not allowed to sell during entrances

In what can be termed as a really weird revelation, Bryan Alvarez stated on the Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE Superstars are not allowed to sell injuries during their entrances.

The WWE has told its stars to not limp or sell, and to carry out the same entrance that they normally do. There are a few exceptions made when a Superstar may be heavily taped or hurt as a result of a nasty assault, but the basic proposition is that minor injuries are not to be sold while talents make their entrances.

Meltzer added that this has been followed for many years. It's a strange rule as Superstars selling an injury from the get-go would help to push and focus on the psychology during matches.


#6. Keith Lee could be in line for a big push

WWE and Netflix have collaborated for the very first time and will soon be releasing 'The Main Event', a film that revolves around a bullied boy who grows up to become a WWE Superstar. The plot of the movie is based on the boy getting hold of a Luchador mask with magical powers before going on to become a Superstar through his rise in NXT.

The role of the lead villain is played by NXT Superstar Babatunde. Kofi Kingston, Maura Ranallo, Beth Pheonix, Heavy Machinery, The Miz and Sheamus will also be making special appearances in the film.

It has been reported by PWInsider that Keith Lee has a big role in the film. It was also additionally stated that he could get a big push during the time the film is released.

PWinsider revealed, "One source noted that they wouldn't be surprised to see Lee get a big push timed with the release of the film."
