WWE Top Five Rumors of the Week and Analysis: 23rd August, 2016

Shane vs. Lesnar in the works?

Update on Cruiserweight division on Raw

Kendrick is almost confirmed for the division

The Cruiserweight division of WWE has everyone excited. Though WWE announced the same during the initiation of the brand split, they are yet to roll out the division. According to the official WWE announcement, the Cruiserweight division is set to be introduced on RAW on 19th September. WWE might pull off the division once the Cruiserweight Classic wraps up and despite the rejection, Kota Ibushi is indeed the top priority for WWE right now.

Cedric Alexander and Roderick Strong are two other names that WWE is looking to add to their Cruiserweight division on a permanent basis. There is no update on how they want to use Neville, but expect him to have a good role as well. Brian Kendrick, TJ Perkins, Noam Dar, and Rich Swann are other names that are confirmed.
