Everyone loves a good rumor right? Something to talk about over a water cooler.
In WWE, everything moves so fast. Not just the Superstars in the ring, but all the latest news and rumors that reach the public every single day.
With 2018 now behind us, everyone in WWE is looking to make a name for themselves in the new year.
The Royal Rumble pay per view, which is just weeks away, is the perfect place to do just that, with Superstars quicky announcing their intentions to win either the men's or women's match.
And with a Universal Tite match already announced, the pay per view is shaping up to be can't-miss.
Here are five rumors from wrestling from this week that you really need to know.
Note: Please remember that every rumor presented here are just that, rumors, just to have fun with. Whilst some may seem more likely than others, please take all of them with a grain of salt.
#5 Kenny Omega, WWE bound?
Kenny Omega may be the most popular Superstar in wrestling today, despite not appearing on WWE TV.
A fixture of New Japan, Omega is a former IWGP Heavyweight Champion, losing the title just days ago at Wrestle Kingdom 13.
According to Tokyo Sports, Omega has decided to leave New Japan, and will be joining either the WWE, or All Elite Wrestling, the newest promotion, formed by Cody Rhodes.
Omega has said in past interviews he hopes to compete against AJ Styles at WrestleMania before the Phenomenal One retires, making fans speculate that the Cleaner will finally be joining WWE, alongside fellow New Japan stars such as Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura
#4 Details on Omega offer
If Kenny Omega does indeed decide to join WWE, he will not be coming cheap, or easily.
The WWE have reportedly given Omega a "fantastic offer" according to the Wrestling Observer, and are doing everything in their power to sign him.
This fantastic offer presumably means a lot of money, though it's unclear what other perks Omega would agree to under contract (perhaps a WrestleMania match against AJ being one of them).
According to Wrestlevotes, if Omega doesn't join the WWE, it won't be because of lack of trying, or because of the deal, as the company is rumored to have offered the former IWGP Heavyweight Champion a lot.
The ball is clearly in Omega's court now, though AEW will no doubt be hoping to sign him too.
#3 Former WWE stars to AEW
From a New Japan Star to WWE, to WWE Superstars joining AEW.
According to Rajah.com, former WWE World Champion Chris Jericho, and legendary commentator Jim Ross will be working closely with the new promotion when it gets started.
The same sources of Rajah have said that AEW will be meticulous in finding names for their brand, with no-one off the table.
The rumored plan is to mix established stars with newer talent, with former Universal Champion Goldberg also rumored to be joining the new promotion.
They certainly have the capital for such an ambitious venture, thanks to financer Tony Khan, a co-owner of both the Jacksonville Jaguars and Fulham FC, who will help the new promotion gets going with his money, an issue that has killed so many new promotions in the past.
#2 AJ to remain
Since debuting at the 2016 Royal Rumble, the WWE career of AJ Styles has been nothing short of phenomenal.
Signing for a three-year deal, Styles has held the WWE Championship twice (one reign lasting over a year), and is a former United States Champion.
And whilst there have been doubts over whether Styles would stay with the company, the belief is that he will re-sign with WWE, though with added perks to his contract.
According to the Observer, negotiations between the company and the former TNA star have been slow, but are gradually getting there.
With Styles being such a popular star, and with AEW now looking to establish itself, the WWE will be doing all that it can to keep one of their most popular Superstars who has amazed fans since his debut in January 2016.
#1 Boss & Hugs close to titles
At some point this year, the WWE will finally reveal their new Women's Tag Team Championships.
Whilst it is still not clear when the new titles will be revealed, it is known that Sasha Banks and Bayley were the ones pushing for the new division backstage.
A report from WrestlingNews.co has revealed some more about the new titles, including the fact that they were due to be revealed at Summerslam last year.
However, after the titles were leaked, and the company weren't happy with the final design, the titles were re-made, and the announcement postponed.
The same report from WrestlingNews also states that Banks and Bayley are "supposed to be heavily involved", with the new titles, with fans speculating if this means they will be the first champions.
