Bayley has just confirmed her free agent status, so we’ll see what’s going on there.
We’ll also take a look at some comments from Dominik Mysterio, and tragic news for
Big-E
Let’s start things off with the latest for Big-E
E was taking part of an ordinary tag team match on Smackdown, but he took a suplex outside
of the ring and landed directly on his neck
The match featured Pete Dunne’s main roster debut and was supposed to set up Sheamus’
new group versus The New Day at Wrestlemania
Xavier Woods is just coming back from his own injury, so it was supposed to be this
big reunion for The New Day at Wrestlemania
But obviously, Big-E will no longer able to compete in this match
After taking that bad spill outside of the ring, he never got up and had to be stretchered
out of the venue
This all happened during a commercial break, so the only fans who saw this happen were
the fans inside the arena
Everyone applauded Big-E as he was rolled out and he put his thumb up to acknowledge
the crowd
Everyone was obviously terrified of what happened, so Big-E took to Twitter to update the fans
with several videos
He said that he can still move his fingers and toes, which is a good sign, but that the
doctors were telling him that he broke his neck
His injury is a C1 fracture.
He doesn’t need surgery, but according to former former WWE physician Doctor David Cho,
this is an injury that doesn’t heal completely
Doctor Cho even went onto say that it very well could mark the end of Big-E’s in-ring
career, which is obviously terrifying and is something that no one wants to hear
So again, the good thing is that no surgery is needed, he won’t have a surgically repaired
neck or anything like that
But at the same time we see these doctors saying that it’s a fracture that doesn’t
fully heal and it’s not something you should risk of injuring again
So when it comes to Big-E’s return to the ring, it sounds it’s gonna be quite the
challenge, but everyone is pulling for him to do the impossible
Everyone from WWE Superstars, to AEW stars, to other wrestling legends have all come out
to send their support and best wishes to Big-E
Despite everything these doctors and reports claim, hopefully it’s not the end for Big-E
and we get to see another miracle return way down the line for him

Bayley is officially a free agent
This is something that some fans have already figured out
She wasn’t drafted during the 2021-2022 draft because she was obviously injured, so
when you don’t get drafted and you’re coming back, you’re a WWE free agent that
can return to any WWE brand
Bayley took to Twitter to tweet out those words “free agent”, teasing and hinting
at her WWE return which should happening in the very near future
Some fans saw the words “free agent” and flipped out wondering if it meant that Bayley’s
WWE contact was up and she was a real free agent, but no, that’s not the case at all
She meant free agent inside of the WWE universe
Which again is great because it keeps everyone on the edge of their seats about where she
might end up at next
Will it be Raw, Smackdown, or even NXT?
Well for Smackdown, sure you have Sasha Banks there, all that history, and that’s been
Bayley’s home since 2019, but Ronda Rousey is about to win the title and she’ll likely
have a long title reign, so it’ll be difficult for Bayley to capture gold on Smackdown
Bianca Belair could very well be the women’s champion over on Raw after Wrestlemania and
that’s a bit poetic and interesting because who was Bayley supposed to face for a women’s
title before she got hurt?
The answer was Bianca Belair
So if Bayley makes a surprising return to Raw and picks right back up from where that
last feud with Bianca Belair left off at, then that would be quite interesting and would
be a perfect fit
Bayley also teased to idea of even going back to NXT and had some twitter interactions with
some of the young NXT superstars like Cora Jade
So when it comes to Bayley’s return, the possibilities really are endless
As far as a time table for Bayley’s WWE return, it looks like we could expect Bayley
back definitely sometime after Wrestlemania season

So let’s get into this Rey and Dominik Mysterio theory and storyline concept
This all came up thanks to a recent Dominik Mysterio interview where he was asked if he
thinks he’ll ever have a match against his father inside the WWE ring
Dominik surprisingly answered by saying that he doesn’t think that match will ever happened
and he just pictures his father peacefully retiring when he’s ready
Obviously WWE fans aren’t really believing that answer from Dominik Mysterio
There’s been rumors and speculation about a Dominik vs Rey storyline pretty much ever
since Dominik came to WWE
initially, there were even some rumors that we could’ve saw a heel Dominik straight
from the jump in 2020
There some reports out there back then about the discussion to have Dominik join Seth Rollins
in order to get out from under his father’s shadow but that story never happened
Then fast forward to about fall 2021 and it looked like that Rey Mysterio and Dominik’s
split storyline was officially underway
Dominik was getting annoyed with his father, telling him to stay in the back, stay out
the way, but Rey never listened
Which only caused Dominik to lose several matches due to Rey’s accidental distractions
and built up more tension that Dominik was gonna snap on Rey at any given second
That storyline build-up went on for several months, but vintage WWE…the story was dropped
and never touched on again shortly after it was well underway
So maybe they stopped the split because they had no plans for it, maybe they had second
thoughts but something definitely made that breakup get dropped in the middle of the story
Dominik is now saying that the match isn’t really needed and that Rey will peacefully
walk into the sunset when he’s ready
But on that flip side, a lot of fans would actually be interested in a Rey versus Dominik,
given proper care and proper writing
Maybe the story is something similar to what they started showing us in fall 2021
Maybe Dominik gets to the point where he feels like his career is standing still because
of his tag team with his father and realizes it’s time to break free and become his own
man
And a storyline like that will be great because now you can reintroduce Angie and Aalyah Mysterio
into WWE television to help sell the idea of this storyline being so personal amongst
the family
Now you probably got Rey, Angie, and Aalyah trying to talk some sense into Dominik, but
if the idea of the story is for him to turn fully heel, then of course he wants to fully
retire his father, take him out of the way, and possibly take his mask in the process
It’s a dark storyline for sure when you really think about it
Everyone has this fairytale ending in mind for the end of Rey Mysterio’s career, where
he’ll have this warm wholesome moment of passing the family mask down to Dominik Mysterio
And that’s all great, but not that interesting and not much really going on there.
It’ll be a great emotion moment for sure, but you start asking yourself, what would
that moment be like when it’s completely flipped upside down
Instead of Rey Mysterio peacefully passing the mask down to his babyface son, which if
the story is Dominik Mysterio trying to retire his father prematurely and forcefully take
that mask
Well now you take what would’ve been one short emotional moment and turn it into a
full storyline
Dominik trying to forcefully get that mask from his father could be his entire motive
and everything right there itself
Then of course after Dominik is successful in beating his father and taking the mask,
Rey can quietly retire and now Dominik would have some serious heat and momentum on his
side
How could he do that to his father?
What kind of son is he?
All questions like that would be popping up and it would just give Dominik a lot to feed
off and build on
