Triple H addressed fans that were chanting “WrestleMania” at him after the main event match at a recent WWE Live Event in London that saw him team with Seth Rollins & Dean Ambrose to take on Bray Wyatt, Cesaro and Sheamus.

Triple H said that it is up to a man on the “other side of the pond,” referring to Vince McMahon.

“There’s only one guy who can make that decision for you. Unfortunately, he’s not here. If you’re loud enough, maybe he can hear you on the other side of the pond.”

Dave Meltzer reported in the latest installment of The wrestling Observer Newsletter that Roman Reigns was diagnosed with mumps just a few days after the October 16th episode of RAW.

Reigns, Bray Wyatt and Bo Dallas are all scheduled to be medically examined this upcoming Monday ahead of RAW. The belief is Reigns will be the captain of the RAW Survivor Series team if he is cleared to return. If he is unable to return in time for Survivor Series, there is a good chance his return could be held off until after the show.

WWE announced earlier today that that Bray Wyatt and Roman Reigns have been pulled from the WWE TLC event this Sunday in Minneapolis. Kurt Angle will be replacing Roman Reigns and AJ Styles will be replacing Bray Wyatt.

Kurt Angle took to his Instagram account to react replacing Roman Reigns at Sunday’s event. He wrote, “Is it true??? Oh It’s damn true! Your Olympic Hero will be wrestling along side of The Shield at #TLC this Sunday. Be sure to watch. #yourolympicheroisback”

WWE announced earlier today that that Bray Wyatt and Roman Reigns have been pulled from the WWE TLC event this Sunday in Minneapolis. Kurt Angle will be replacing Roman Reigns and AJ Styles will be replacing Bray Wyatt.

Wyatt has been kept off the road for several weeks now as a “precautionary measure” after Bo Dallas was diagnosed with an illness described as a “communicable disease.” When the company found out that Wyatt would be not cleared to return to in-ring action, WWE made the call to have Styles replace him.

WWE also announced that Reigns was being pulled for a medical issue. PWInsider speculates that it’s probably the same issue that Wyatt was pulled for. Angle is now set to team with Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose at Sunday event in the main event bout. This will be his first WWE match since 2006.

Apparently WWE requested a number of talents that are competing at Sunday’s TLC event to undergo medical testing earlier this week because of the concern that they may have contracted what is ailing Dallas and Wyatt. WWE is not expected to announce anything beyond that there is a medical issue due to HIPAA laws.

The Shield Sticking Around?

We might be seeing more of The Shield than just their big match at Sunday’s TLC PPV. We reported yesterday that the trio is scheduled to have a match to kick off the WWE UK tour next month, and now they are being advertised for a show at MSG on December 26th.

While they are being advertised for WWE live events, there’s no word on if the trio will remain together as a unit on WWE television after TLC.

Bray Wyatt Update

Many people have noticed that Bray Wyatt has only been in pre-taped segments on RAW over the past two weeks. Bo Dallas and ring announcer JoJo Offerman have also been MIA. It turns out that Bo has been suffering from viral meningitis, and Bray and JoJo have been kept off of the road and at home as a precautionary measure.

At this time, Bray is still scheduled to face Finn Bálor at Sunday’s TLC.

Samoa Joe Injury Update

Samoa Joe has been off television since August, recovering from knee surgery he had due to an injury he suffered at a live event. Word is that Joe is all healed up now and just waiting for WWE creative to write him back into RAW.

Even though plans were changed and Finn Balor is no longer challenging Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship at Survivor Series, he is still lobbying for the match to take place.

While speaking to metro.co.uk, Balor mentioned that he wants to go after Lesnar once his feud with Bray Wyatt comes to an end.

“Once I handle Bray Wyatt, I need to be going after the Universal Championship which I was never beaten for. Yes, Brock Lesnar is the current champion, but make sure you don’t forget that I relinquished the title due to injury, I was never beaten, and I definitely think that I deserve a title shot.”

Balor continued, “Right now, there’s a lot of interesting matches that could happen in WWE right now, but for me personally I think that Finn Balor vs Brock Lesnar is the most interesting match from a fans perspective that can happen right now. It’s something that has never happened before, with completely different styles inside and out of the ring. This could be a really big spectacle.”

Bischoff is joined on today’s show by his co-host Nick Hausman.

Bischoff opens today’s show by speaking about the tragedy that occurred in Las Vegas several days ago. As a parent, he can’t even begin to think about what it must have been like for parents who had children at that concert. He simply can’t comprehend this mindless act of violence, and he sends his prayers and best wishes to all the families involved.

He also points out that there were a lot of good people who showed the best side of humanity on that night, and we mustn’t forget about those individuals. Whether it be the volunteers on the ground who helped get injured people to hospitals or the police force who took down the shooter, they all deserve a tremendous amount of respect for the work they did that night.

Hausman mentions that Bray Wyatt may soon be debuting a ‘Sister Abigail’ alter-ego and he asks Bischoff for his opinion on that. Bischoff says that this type of character and storyline doesn’t interest him at all because it comes off as completely unbelievable. He was never a fan of ‘fantasy’ type characters but he also admits that’s only his taste.

Sister Abigail Competing At WWE TLC?

It looks like the ever elusive Sister Abigail will be wrestling Finn Bálor at next month’s RAW TLC PPV. Of course, this won’t be your typical intergender match.

As we all saw on Monday’s RAW, Bray Wyatt “introduced” Finn to Abigail, and it’s now being reported that WWE will introduce the character at TLC. Of course, it’s going to be Bray Wyatt in drag (make-up and new gear), and word is Sister Abigail will be akin to Finn Bálor’s Demon. A little paint, some shiny (or in Bray’s case, tattered) new outfit, and there she is.

This should be interesting, to say the least.

As seen on Monday’s episode of RAW, Bray Wyatt teased the introduction of Sister Abigail to WWE programming during his promo to Finn Balor. Wyatt told Finn Balor in a video promo that Abigail is alive.

“Abigail is alive,” Wyatt told Balor. “She is dying to meet you.”

Pro Wrestling Sheet reports that the current plan isn’t for Sister Abigail to be introduced as a female competitor in the company. The idea is that “Sister Abigail” will be the alter ego of Bray Wyatt — similar to what The Demon is for Finn Balor.

Bray is slated to debut the ego in his match against Finn Balor at the upcoming TLC event.

Dolph Ziggler On Repackaging His Character

During an appearance on Fox Business’ Kennedy Nation, Dolph Ziggler was asked about WWE repackaging his character. Dolph was coy with his answer to the question…which was really a non-answer.

“I’m not exactly sure what I’m doing but it’s very special and it’s gonna be a helluva time, I think.”

Big Show Undergoing Hip Surgery

WWE announced today that due to the match he had on last week’s RAW with Braun Strowman where Strowman threw him through one of the wall panels of the cage, he suffered injuries that will require hip surgery.

In reality, the angle and match were done because Show needed hip surgery. As it stands now, Show will go under the knife on September 29th.

Bray Wyatt On His Gimmick

In a recent interview, Bray Wyatt was asked about where he came up with the cult leader gimmick he uses in WWE.

“There is this show about a cult with the Monopoly masks. I’ve been studying it. Then there is Robert De Niro, ‘Red State.’ There are so many things I’ve taken from over the years. All over the place. You find inspiration everywhere. The best inspiration is the people you grew up with. Nobody else knows about you than when you were just regular, everyday people. That’s where most of it comes from.”

He also talked about how The Undertaker has influenced him.

“There are times where fans don’t understand that change is inevitable or that changes are done too fast. They say, ‘We like the way you used to be.’ Or they say, ‘We liked what you did then.’ You can’t stay the same. As you mature as an adult, you find out you have to keep changing in this business. It’s something The Undertaker laid on me.”
