With the grandest pay-per-view of the year, WrestleMania 35 just one month away, the WWE rumor mill is buzzing more than ever.
On top of that, the recent turn of events (Roman Reigns announcing his remission, Batista announcing his return in an epic fashion) has set social media on fire. And with WWE fans coming up with new speculations and permutations every hour, it would not be wrong to say that WrestleMania fever is running wild in the WWE Universe.
Rumors are a vital part of the sports entertainment business. They often give us a fair idea of what the future has in store for us. Even though they could be misleading at times, we should never forget that there is no smoke without fire.
Without further ado, we take a look at 2 rumors of the first week of March 2019 that should not come true, and 1 which should.
#3 Should not come true: Randy Orton vs AJ Styles at WrestleMania 35
According to a recent report published on Cagesideseats, a potential match between Randy Orton and AJ Styles could be on the cards for WrestleMania 35.
Well, any match featuring two high profile names of the WWE roster in the likes of Orton and Styles is simply epic, however, have we not seen enough of the duo already?
There is no denying the fact that the duo could give us a gem of a match at 'Mania35, however, they have already been involved in a feud in the past and another feud leading to a match at WrestleMania 35 would not only feel similar to another televised match but would also be repetitive.
Well, WrestleMania has always been about dream matches, those never seen before classics, thus, having another match between Orton and Styles might not be 'best for business'.
#2 Should not come true: Even after Roman Reigns' return, Dean Ambrose is expected to leave the company
It is a noted fact that The Lunatic Fringe is expected to leave the company after the expiration of his contract. However, things took a turn when Roman Reigns announced his remission two weeks ago on Raw.
Yes, the WWE Universe started speculating that the recent fiasco surrounding Ambrose could be a mere work for creative to launch him in the main event scene since Roman announced that he had some 'special plans' for Ambrose.
However, according to the recent report published on Cagesideseats, Ambrose would still be leaving the company after the termination of his contract.
Well, Ambrose is a high profile name on the Raw roster and he has been gaining a lot of sympathy and support due to the recent turn of events. WWE fans want to see him on the Raw roster. Also, with a reunion of the Shield this week on Raw, WWE could push him as a legit main event superstar if he agrees to stay.
All in all, given his stature and his credibility, Ambrose leaving the company would be a major loss for the fans as well as WWE.
#1 Should come true: John Cena vs Samoa Joe at WrestleMania 35
According to a report published on Cagesideseats, John Cena vs Samoa Joe for the United States Championship could be on the cards for WrestleMania 35.
Well, for those who did not know, Samoa Joe defeated Rey Mysterio, Andrade Cien Almas, and R-Truth in a fatal four-way match to win the US Championship this week on SmackDown Live. If the reports are to be believed, then it seems WWE has some big plans for Joe at the Grandest Stage of them All.
Samoa Joe is one of the most underrated superstars on the WWE roster. His work with Brock Lesnar and AJ Styles has been truly phenomenal. The intensity he brings to the table is unparalleled. Thus, a potential match with Mr. Never Give Up would prove not only to be epic but has the capability to become the match of the year.
Samoa Joe deserves to be among the top ranks in WWE, and a match against Cena at Mania could very well be the start of something big. Joe could push Cena to his limits and the duo could give us a match for the ages.
