TOP STORIES TODAY
Bron Breakker has issued a challenge for the World Heavyweight Championship. He has called out both Jey Uso and Gunther, and anyone else who might stand in his way.
Speaking to CBS Sports, Bron Breakker announced that he will be going after the World Heavyweight Championship sometime after WrestleMania.The star said that it was hard to predict when it would happen - whether in the middle or at the end of the year, he wanted to be involved in the World Heavyweight Championship picture. He said that he didn't care if it was Gunther, Jey Uso, or whoever was holding the World Heavyweight title, but he felt it was time for him to rise and move in the right direction. He said that it was only a matter of time before he would be up there challenging for the World Heavyweight title as well.
 In 2020, Roman Reigns' career was propelled to new heights when Paul Heyman became his advocate. However, it was more than a usual client-manager relationship, and Heyman became The Wiseman in The Tribal Chief's Island of Relevancy in the coming years in the Stamford-based promotion. Later, CM Punk returned to the company, and many questioned Paul Heyman's loyalty as The Second City Saint, and Heyman's relationship went back to the mid-2000s. Meanwhile, on the latest edition of Monday Night RAW, Seth Rollins spared The Wiseman from a beating and let the WWE Universe know that the Hall of Famer was now in his debt. Today, Paul Heyman uploaded pictures on X/Twitter with Roman Reigns, where he called himself Reigns' Wiseman. The message seems subtle, but it could indicate the ending of WrestleMania 41 Night One, where Heyman remains loyal to Reigns, and the Original Tribal Chief ends the night with another win under his belt. |  A WWE legend has announced that they are returning at WrestleMania 41. The star took to social media to share the status after officially saying it.The legend announced that he would be back at WrestleMania 41 this year as the Boogeyman. In the video, he had the usual worms in his mouth as he was in full face paint and his usual gimmick. He added in the video that he would be back on April 17 for WrestleMania 41 between 4 and 7 PM. This generally means that fans will have the opportunity to meet the star, and with the legend back, WWE fans will get their own Boogeyman experience. |
FROM THE RUMOR MILL
Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton had a confrontation on WWE SmackDown last week, where they went off-script and took real-life shots at each other, both trying to bury the other star. While Stratton brought up Charlotte Flair's three divorces, Flair tried to imply that Stratton's real-life partner, Ludwig Kaiser was in her DMs. Both stars have addressed the promo since then.
Fightful Select has now reported on the match at WrestleMania 41. The report said that despite the two of them going at it off script on SmackDown, the plans for their match have not changed. With the rumors of their plans being changed, it has been said that while who is booked to win has not been revealed, but the creative direction has not changed in that regard.

Former WWE Tag Team Champion Jimmy Uso was sidelined after a brutal assault by Gunther on RAW a couple of weeks ago. The World Heavyweight Champion unleashed a massive attack on Jimmy after their match, sending a message to his WrestleMania opponent, Jey Uso.
While Jimmy's return status remains uncertain, he may not make his comeback to TV alone. Instead, the former Tag Team Champion could return with his father, Rikishi, who could serve as his son's manager to help him elevate his status in the singles division and reach a level like Jey Uso.
