It looks like Candice LeRae could be signing on with WWE full-time very soon.

Dave Meltzer reported in the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that she is currently on WWE’s radar but hasn’t been signed just yet. It’s being said that LeRae is going through the process of signing which means unless it falls through, she’ll be off the indie scene.

LeRae and Rachael Evers are the two most popular women that have been at Full Sail not under contract every time they were brought in for enhancement or extra duties.

Dave Meltzer reported in the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Ronda Rousey has been training at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando.

It now appears that WWE is working towards the Horsewoman vs. Horsewoman match for WrestleMania 34, giving her, Marina Sharif and Jessamyn Duke several months to train and get ready. This match was originally set to take place at Survivor Series but it was put off because her first match will be the one that garners the most publicity, and they felt it should be on the biggest show of the year.

If the match goes well, there is an increased change that Rousey will compete in a singles’ match sometime down the line.

As previously reported, Dave Meltzer mentioned in the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Finn Balor’s rumored match against Brock Lesnar for the WWE Universal Title may not take place at next year’s Royal Rumble event.

Meltzer said that Balor’s loss to Kane this past week on RAW could be an indication that the match is off because the company was supposed to be building Balor up for the Championship title match against Brock.

When asked about the situation, Dave Meltzer responded, “I’ve asked around and like, I mean, people who always defend Vince [McMahon] have been, like, there’s no explanation. There’s no defense. He just whiffed.“

Bret Hart recently appeared on Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast. Here are some highlights from the interview:

Offer to Work for WWE: “I hesitated on that for a long time; it was about four years ago I went up to them and threw the ball at them, made that pitch that I would give them ideas and help with the writing of the shows, creation of the matches and how storylines would go and so forth,” Hart explained. “I think I would be really good for them, but I sort of made the offer, but the way it was thrown back at me was about the schedule; I was letting them know that I didn’t want to be on the road everyday but that I could fly in for TV, and I think I left with letting them know that I can fly in for TV and never heard from them. Vince [McMahon] and Triple H thanked me for the offer and we left it at that.”

The Schedule Being The Issue: “It could be figured, and worked out. It’s not impossible. I can go anywhere. Sometimes a change of scenery might be fun, but I’m also very happy where I am at,” he said. “I have a beautiful house, and life, but you know, working on Monday Night Raw might sound good for me, but realistically maybe they need more; they look at their agents: Mike Rotunda, Arn Anderson, whoever they are, they’re on the road all the time with all that consistency and commitment, and I don’t really have that which is why I most likely haven’t gotten a call. I want to be a helper but don’t want to give my life away for it.”

The Lesnar vs. Triple H Match at WrestleMania 29: “I remember showing up at WrestleMania 29 where Brock Lesnar and Triple H wrestled, and I remember thinking that i had so many ideas that they could have done in their match,” he explained. “I remember seeing them talking and working out their match, and I thought to myself that I should go over there and talk to them because I had some ideas. I talked myself into not doing it, but then I watched the match—but my quote on that match became famous now where I gave it a 4 out of 10, but it was a 4 out of 10 match, it was nothing special. I remember thinking, I could have made that match really awesome, and give them a few things where it could have really taken that match up a few notches, so I know that there is a potential there to pass on some wisdom. I regretted that I didn’t do it, and I think a lot of my criticism on that match are misunderstood, which is perceived to be that I am trying to tear down Triple H, but that wasn’t what I was trying to say; I just believe that I could have made that match better.”

As previously noted, Jeff Hardy is expected to miss around six months of action because of a rotator cuff injury.

Dave Meltzer reported in the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Matt Hardy has multiple creative ideas for himself to keep him afloat as a singles wrestler while Jeff is absent from WWE television.

It will be interesting to see if WWE actually uses Matt’s ideas. This past Monday on RAW he was placed into a tag-team match with Jason Jordan to take on The Miztourage.

Dave Meltzer discussed Roman Reigns’ feud with John Cena in the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. According to Meltzer, if Reigns’ program with Cena is a multi-match program, then he speculates that Cena will win their match at Sunday’s No Mercy event. Meltzer mentioned that if the match is a one-and-done, then Reigns will go over.

Meltzer said that the idea for the feud is for Cena to endorse Reigns as the company’s next big star, a position they’ve been trying for years to have fans accept Reigns in.

It’s worth noting that Cena is not being advertised for the TLC pay-per-view event, which is the next RAW-brand pay-per-view event that takes place after their match at No Mercy. It’s being said that Cena is expected to take time off to fulfill his non-WWE obligations. If that is the case, Reigns will be going over at Sunday’s event.
