Block 1:

Taz points out that it’s strange that WWE moved the return of the Fashion Files from last week’s Smackdown live to this Sunday’s Hell in A Cell PPV. He assumes this will probably be on the pre-show given how limited time can be on a major PPV like this, but nonetheless he’s looking forward to it.

He has heard rumours that the upcoming Fashion Files may have a ‘Pulp Fiction’ theme, and when he heard that he immediately thought of Paul Heyman. He wonders if Heyman might be involved in this creative in some way. Either way he’s intrigued to watch it because he likes both guys, and it’s great anytime wrestlers can make money without taking bumps.

Taz says he’s not a fan of Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable being together right now but he likes them both as individual performers. He doubts that Benjamin is happy about making his return to the company only to be paired in a tag team and wrestling on a pre-show.

Taz says he likes the chemistry between Randy Orton and Rusev. He loves the Rusev character and he jokes that he’ll be celebrating Rusev Day for many years to come. Regardless, he predicts that Orton will win here, but he would prefer to see Rusev win because he needs it more. Taz would still rather see Rusev and Lana together, but he thinks WWE split them up as a rib.

SmackDown Live Superstar Shelton Benjamin recently did an interview with WWE.com where he discussed several topics, like what it was like to return to the WWE after seven years, and about teaming up with Chad Gable.

Shelton says that he is still trying to get used to being in WWE after working on improving himself for the past seven years.

“It’s all kind of surreal, and I don’t feel like it’s hit me yet. Since I left the WWE, I moved to improve myself as a performer and come back. I really didn’t expect it to take seven years. So, it’s been a long road and I’m still trying to get used to it. It’s all very surreal. Being back with WWE is an emotional high and a professional high. So far, so good.”

Shelton was released from WWE along with several other superstars back in April of 2010. After his release, Shelton made a return to the independent circuit and wrestled for various promotions like World Wrestling Council, Ring of Honor, NJPW and has also worked for Global Force Wrestling and several other promotions.

Shelton made his return on August 17, 2017 at the WWE and teamed up with Chad Gable. Shelton says that Chad is a tremendous athlete like his former partner Charlie Haas.

“Without a doubt. Chad is a great athlete, just like Charlie. Before I even get into that, though, Charlie Haas is, to this day, still my best friend. He’s my brother. We talk all the time. WWE created family when they put us together. We worked hard together and he helped push me. When you insert Chad Gable, obviously, there is going to be the comparisons to Charlie. I don’t like to make that comparison because they’re two different people. This isn’t The World’s Greatest Tag Team, this isn’t American Alpha — we are something completely different. But, obviously, there are similarities. They’re both tremendous athletes. They both have great drive, and even in the past couple of weeks I’ve seen Gable show signs of the intensity that Charlie had.”

It was reported earlier this week via Pro Wrestling Sheet that WWE and Shelton Benjamin are in talks about a possible return to the company, however that may not be the case.

Shelton Benjamin addressed rumors about his return to WWE in a new video message. He mentioned that he has an upcoming commitment on June 30th for Great North Wrestling. He brought up how everywhere he looks, people are speculating on where his career is heading. He then proceeded to cut a promo on his opponent Amanuel Hassan without any indication or hints that he would be returning to WWE.

You can check out his video message below:

It is still very possible that the two parties are in talks about a return. If that is the case they are just trying to keep it a secret. We will keep you updated if we hear anything else regarding the situation.
