5 wrestling rumors we hope are true and 5 we hope aren't: Details on WWE's 'rehiring' list, Vince McMahon 'not sold' on top RAW heel?

#1. Hope is true: WWE shortlisting names to re-hire

WWE went on a mass releasing spree of employees, ranging from talent to agents to various backstage staff and many working in offices. While nothing is known about the people working behind the scenes, Tom Colohue revealed on his video that WWE has a shortlist of Superstars they plan to re-hire post-COVID-19:

Breaking Vince Russo and Jim Cornette update HERE.

The WWE, including what's happening with Drew Gulak, have a shortlist prepared of names of people that have been released who they may want to rehire in the future after the coronavirus pandemic is lessened or at least is not so prevalent that they are able to do that without affecting their bottom line.

Colohue added that there are Superstars who won't be re-hired under any circumstances and that there are no plans to re-hire any of the NXT names released. However, we hope that the above-stated rumor is true because WWE owes it to the released Superstars who didn't want to leave to eventually re-hire them. However, this was something always expected to happen.
