Here's more wrestling news for August 30th, 2022.
And we're starting off with WWE as over the past month.
Several names have been brought back to WWE Krion Kross
Scarlet Dakota, Kai hit row Dexter Loomis, and Johnny Gargano
have all returned so far and we may now know who's next.
According to a renew report from spiteful.
Ron Stroman is a name being thrown around backstage regarding a
possible return, but it's unclear at this time, if negotiations
have started with the man himself, a former universal
champion St strongman's release last year was a shock to fans.
As he had been prominently booked for years, with his final WWE
match, being a world championship opportunity at a premium live
event, it would certainly be interesting to see how Stroman
would fit into this new era of WWE and who he'd returned to face.
Since being released, Stroman has worked with CYN the counterculture
promotion that claims that they will reshape wrestling, but for
the right price, the monster among men may soon be back working
for WWE Stroman is certainly a big name that could be returning
to TV, but he's not the only return said to be in the works.
Not too long ago.
It was reported that WWE were considering trying
to make a play to bring back Bronson Reed who
was released last year from his contract in NXT.
In an update from fight full it's confirmed that WWE
is trying to bring back Reed who was cut because Vince
McMahon did not see him as a fit in the new era of NXT.
2.0 after being released, Reed said how he had been
promised by triple H that his position with the company
was safe and that there were big plans in his future.
And while that didn't transpire during his first run with
WWE, it may be time that the game makes good on that promise.
It's been just under a month since carrying Kross made his
impactful return to WWE attacking drew McIntyre, and having
a stare down with Roman reigns for this Friday SmackDown
it's being advertised that Kross will have his debut match,
which may come as a surprise to fans with a good memory.
It was only last year that Kross was competing on raw
infamously, losing his first match on the main roster.
But according to Dave Meltzer, that never happened.
Belcher explained that WWE are going to act as if Cross's first
run on the main roster, never transpired, which is why his match
this Friday is being treated as his debut to the main roster.
WWE is no stranger to rewriting their own history.
And as far as the company is concerned, the days of his ridiculous
attire and bizarre helmet never took place crosses first run on
the main roster may have never happened according to WWE at least.
But the former NXT champion is certainly
in a good position on the card right now.
Many expect crossed a challenge for the WWE
undisputed universal championship one day, but
he's also working on another big match on Twitter.
Kross retweeted, a fan who proposed a match
between the SmackDown, superstar and bra Wyatt.
Adding that it must happen one day Kross even responded
to the tweet by asking his wife Scarlet Bordeaux.
If she knows any spells that could
aid him in a match against the feed.
Despite being released last July, the chances of Wyatt returning
have never been better as the former universal champion has
teased returning to wrestling in this new post Vince McMohan
era Kross versus Wyatt would certainly be a high profile feud.
And if the current SmackDown superstar gets his way, it'll just be
a matter of time before he and the fend square off in June, 2007,
the wrestling world was rocked when news broke that Chris BEWA,
his wife, Nancy and son, Daniel had been found dead in their homes.
It wouldn't be until a day later after a somber tribute
show that the truth came out about Ben's heinous actions.
During the last few days of his life, everyone in the
wrestling world was affected in some way by the tragedy,
but those who knew him best were particularly hit hard.
Speaking on the chief heat productions podcast at
superstar Rory McAllister recalled that fateful
June and how Randy Horton couldn't handle.
Randy goes for coffee and he comes walking back and every
screen in the center of the hub of the airport, murder,
suicide, murder, suicide, dude, Randy just lost his shit.
He literally just lost his shit and fucking ran out of the airport.
Orton's first title win in WWE came
by beating Benoa a match in moment.
WWE can no longer air.
As all these years later, Chris be's actions
continued to haunt the wrestling world.
Now will Osprey is one of the best wrestlers in the world today.
But this week he tussled on social media with an unlikely opponent.
After a fan pointed out that Osprey has four.
Dave Meltzer rated five star matches more than
cm punk, John Cena and Kurt Engle combined.
Kevin Nash decided to retort asking how's his merchandise sales
Nash clearly believes highly celebrated, matches mean little
if they're not making you money and Osprey fired back a few
hours later asking if Nash to his quad's writing his tweet.
This age old joke has followed big daddy.
Cool.
For the past 20 years after he tore his quadriceps, walking
to the ring on the July 8th, 2002 raw, which should have
marked Nash's in ring return from a different injury Nash
may never have had the five star classic that Osprey had,
but his wrestling style made the two time hall of Famer, an
exceptionally wealthy man, even if it has cost him a quadricep.
Gaming news now is earlier this week, it was reported
that that FTR had been pulled from the AEW fight
forever video game in a surprising move by the company.
After all FTR, former AEW world tag team champions have
been immensely popular since joining the company in 2020.
So to see them pulled, came as a shock to fans in an
update sports gamers, online managing editor, Mike straw
revealed some information about the situation saying that
one reason for the removal is because of their move set.
Straw explained that a reason he was told is that some move
set, captures and animations throughout a W's roster has caused
issues, which is why FTR have been pulled from what he said.
It sounds like others on the roster
could be pulled from the game as well.
But so far, the only two that we know for
certain is Dak hardwood and cash Wheeler.
Well, it's been reported that AEW is looking for a release this year.
No date has been announced yet, and we'll just have to wait
until AEW fight forever launches to see who made the cut.
If you were watching WWE from 2006 to 2010 you'll know of Mike
Knox, who would later spend a few more years in impact wrestling,
despite working on raw SmackDown and ECW Knox never won gold
WWE, but that doesn't seem to bother the former superstar.
Speaking on the Patriot cast Knox revealed that he was offered
a chance to return to WWE in 2015 and explained why he said.
I hadn't worked and my knees were freaking really bothering me.
I still want to live an awesome life.
You know what I mean?
I don't wanna be, you know, have a
head full of mush in two broke legs.
Knox didn't return to WWE, but he did return to wrestling most
recently, losing to fellow ACEs and eight alum bully Ray at
NWA 74 in the seven years, since his almost return Knox, hasn't
hinted at a comeback, but with WWE bringing back Ex talent,
we can't count anything out in this new era of the company.
And we're ending today with AEW as recent reports have stated that
there is a lot of tension within the company between cm punk going off
script and thunder, Rosa, having real life beef with Brit baker and
Jamie hater a lot has been happening, but not according to one star.
Speaking on headlock, Christopher Daniels played down the reports
saying that everything's going fine in AEW that could be true,
but Tony Khan still felt the need to hold a talent wide meeting
before last week's dynamite to address reports of issues backstage.
With WWE content improving the last
thing AEW needs is to lose ground now.
But according to the fallen angel, there's
nothing for AEW's loyal fans to worry about.
