Ziggler to AEW:
Dolph Ziggler says he would make a great addition to the AEW roster, his biggest hint yet at his future plans.
He also revealed why he did not take the backstage job...
"If WWE wanted to keep me around it would be to be in the ring. For now. Producing I could see happening 10 years down the line but I don't know why I wouldn't be doing some other stuff first. It's a great thing and there are a lot of people who are good at teaching and giving back and I love pulling people aside or if they come up to me at work. Doing that full time and basically being in the best shape of my life, I wouldn't be able to do it knowing that I could be like no let me just do this for you. One day down the line that could be something but I'm very much not interested in that."
AJ staying:
The Meltzer says he has it on good authority that AJ Styles will re-sign with WWE in April.
Stupid idea lasts:
Pat Patterson recalls Vince McMahon telling him the Royal Rumble was a stupid idea...
"I had a big meeting with Vince McMahon and Dick Ebersol. I'm there with Vince and we're talking about Dick Ebersol, he's on NBC Network, wants a big show, something special, something that's never been done. So, I gave my idea to Vince. He knew the idea but he didn't like it, but I gave him the idea. And Vince says, 'Alright, tell Dick Ebersol that stupid idea you've got.' I said, 'Well first of all, it's not a stupid idea.' So, Dick Ebersol, I told him the idea. One guy, two guys, bing boom! Dick Ebersol went crazy, he says, 'Vince, this is unbelievable for television.'
Cena out of PPV:
WWE have officially withdrawn John Cena from tonight's PPV. He gave his spot to Braun Strowman.
Another star told to be at PPV:
Maria has made it to Phoenix for Royal Rumble, without her husband, Mike.
