Due to the current Coronavirus situation, lockdown measures have been put in place to
stop people from travelling and for Jordan Devlin, he’s no exception. Since Devlin
is essentially stuck at home in Ireland, the WWE made the decision to begin a tournament
to crown a new interim NXT Cruiserweight Champion due to The Irish Ace being “unable to defend
his title”. It’s fair to say that Jordan Devlin did not take the news too kindly as
he’s been very vocal on Twitter about the whole situation…
The last time we saw Bo Dallas in a wrestling ring was back in October 2019. He was part
of the tag team the “B-Team”
alongside his partner Curtis Axel and the two even won
the RAW tag team championships despite being a comedy act…
But with the recent WWE firings
which saw Curtis Axel’s name as one of the many released, the B-Team quietly disbanded.
It’s unclear what the future holds for Bo Dallas. A gimmick change might be the way
to go but we’ll just have to wait and see… We just have to “bo-lieve” in Bo… unless
you’re The Miz…
Many rumours have been circulating to who the SmackDown hacker might be… Some might
even say it’s Tekashi 6ix9ne with all the snitching that’s been going on…
All jokes aside, Mustafa Ali seems to be the clear choice. He hasn’t wrestled on TV since December
2019 and looking at the hacker’s vignettes, the lights in the background are very similar
to Mustafa Ali’s entrance gear… One other critical factor is the hacker’s voice.
Twitter user James Lynch was able to descramble the voice which revealed something very interesting…
However, another Twitter user by the name of Gwen Annabelle descrambled a second message
which revealed the hacker’s voice to be Shorty G.
Have a listen…
Whoever the hacker might be, the “truth will be heard…”
Sami Zayn’s run as Intercontinental Champion was probably not quite the title run he imagined…
65 days into his reign, Sami was stripped off his Intercontinental championship for
“not being able to compete and defend his title” as he did not feel comfortable travelling
and working during the Coronavirus pandemic. WWE’s decision to take the belt off Sami
proved very controversial.
It’s safe to say Sami was not happy with the decision…
Roman Reigns has made it very clear to WWE management that he is not wrestling during
the Coronavirus pandemic due to his high risk of catching the virus because of his history
with leukaemia as well as wanting to be a father for his two new-born twin boys. Since
pulling out of WrestleMania 36 after getting word that The Miz turned up to work sick,
we haven’t seen The Big Dog since and with Vince McMahon specifically instructing WWE
announcers not to mention his name, Reigns is unlikely to return any time soon…
