During today’s installment of Wrestling Observer Live, Dave Meltzer discussed WWE’s decision to change AJ Styles’ match against Rusev on next week’s SmackDown Live to a match against Jinder Mahal for the WWE Championship instead. Meltzer speculated the following scenarios at to why the company made the changes:

One scenario is that Jinder Mahal is hurt and they need to get the title off him. Mahal was wearing Kinesio tape at WWE events but he denied to ESPN that he’s working hurt.

Another scenario is that no one really cares to see Jinder Mahal vs. Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series, so putting the title on Styles would gain more interest in the pay-per-view.

The last scenario that Meltzer discussed was that the company panicked over Tuesday’s low rating/viewership. They may have booked Styles vs. Mahal just to get people to tune in next week, but not actually have plans to change the title.

]]> Is Finn Balor Working Hurt? /is-finn-balor-working-hurt/ Mon, 24 Jul 2017 04:46:21 +0000 /is-finn-balor-working-hurt/ Several readers have sent word that Finn Balor worked Saturday’s WWE Live Event in Hampton, Virginia wearing Kinesio tape on his shoulder. It’s being speculated that he may have aggravated the shoulder on Friday’s Live Event, as he was not wearing the tape that night.

For those not aware, Kinesio tape is designed to facilitate the body’s natural healing process while providing support and stability to muscles and joints without restricting the body’s range of motion. John Cena used this tape back in 2016 when he was healing from an injury. Other WWE Superstars have been seen using it as well.

As of this writing, an injury has not been confirmed or announced but it’s probably something only minor. We will keep you updated if we hear anything else regarding Balor’s status.
