Not a Roomba, I received rumors.
Lead Rumor: Sami Zayn’s WWE championship
It nonetheless doesn’t really feel actual that Sami Zayn pinned Cody Rhodes to win the WWE championship in the principle occasion of Evening of Champions in Saudi Arabia this previous weekend. He’s the reigning, defending WWE champion. Wonderful!
It’s most likely not going to final.
WRKD Wrestling already mentioned “don’t get too hooked up” and Dave Meltzer echoed an analogous sentiment on Wrestling Observer Radio. He mentioned he doesn’t see a protracted reign and “I don’t suppose that he’s the man of their plans,” evaluating it to Darby Allin’s run with the AEW world championship.
We’ll see if it lasts even that lengthy.
One other facet of that is Meltzer wasn’t certain if this was a response to current criticism of the reserving and inventive route being stale. It definitely didn’t appear to be a long run plan, contemplating Zayn was working heel for months after which given a giant babyface win out of nowhere. Cory Hays of False End outright mentioned the unique plan was for Zayn to win the title at WrestleMania 43 subsequent 12 months, which can also be going down in Saudi Arabia.
There’s a lot to be taught within the coming weeks.
