However, they were attacked by Imperium during the segment which is likely to lead to a match down the line.

Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa have not teamed up together since 2020. They are also rumored to go after the tag titles in the near future.


#3. John Cena sends a message ahead of NXT appearance

John Cena is set to feature on this week's NXT which will be going head-to-head against AEW Dynamite. The 16-time world champion has been hyping up his appearance on social media and recently sent a two-word message.

Other than John Cena, The Undertaker and Paul Heyman will also be appearing on the developmental brand.


#2. Major name retires from WWE

Sean Rass Sapp of Fightful.com recently reported that 2021 Warrior Award recipient Rich Hering has retired from WWE.

Hering was the Senior Vice President of Government Relations and Risk Management. The veteran worked with the global juggernaut for over 50 years.


#1. Former champions expected to leave the company soon

The Dyad (Rip Fowler and Jagger Reid) made it clear a few months back that they do not wish to continue with the promotion as they asked for their release. However, the duo were denied the same and it was reported that they'll depart after their contracts expire.

According to Fightful Select, while Fowler and Reid have not been seen on NXT for a bit, they are still under contract. However, their pacts will end on October 14, and the duo will most likely be leaving then.
