The WWE is a busy place, and with the Sports Entertainment juggernaut now having shows and live events almost every day of the week, it can be hard to keep up with the day-to-day happenings in the company.

With a new month, September is already shaping up to be a huge 30 days for WWE.

Not only do we have RAW, SmackDown Live, NXT, NXT UK and 205 Live, but there will also be Clash of Champions.

Here are five WWE rumors from this week you really need to know about.

Note: It should be noted that these rumors are just that, rumors. Though some may seem more likely than others, each one should be taken with a pinch of salt, as something to have fun with.

#5 More NXT Superstars to appear on the main roster

NXT Stars like Ciampa and Gargano could soon reappear on Monday Night RAW.

Since it's relaunch in 2012, WWE's NXT brand has been one of the most consistent hours in programming the company has.

After all, the yellow brand has seen several of its alum go on to become World Champions, including Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens and Finn Balor.

But with the show being stretched to two hours and moved to the USA Network, it's clear changes will have to be made.

One change the company is reportedly considering, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, is having more NXT stars appear on Monday Night RAW, ahead of the developmental brand's move to the USA Network.

Though this will help give the stars some exposure, head of NXT Triple H is reportedly trying to talk Vince McMahon out of the idea, saying that it will make these stars seem like they're not good enough for the three-hour show.

This isn't the first time the pair have been at loggerheads, and it probably won't be the last.

#4 More matches rumored for Clash of Champions

Bryan Vs. Reigns is just one match rumored for the Pay Per View.

In less than two weeks, WWE will host their latest Pay Per View: Clash of Champions.

As the name suggests, the show will see plenty of title matches take place, with bouts for the Universal, WWE, RAW, and SmackDown Tag, Cruiserweight, Intercontinental and SmackDown Women's titles already being announced.

Not only that, but the show will also see the crowning of the 2019 King of the Ring, though that isn't quite it just yet for the show.

According to the Wrestling Observer, it is likely that a Women's Tag Team title match, featuring current champions Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss will also be announced, though the publication didn't hint at who they would face.

In addition to that, the same report also said that the company will announce Roman Reigns Vs. Daniel Bryan for the show, as the pair were expected to face off at SummerSlam.

Though Bryan has tried to prove that he isn't the man behind the attacks on the Big Dog, it seems Reigns isn't buying it, and the two former World Champions could face-off very soon.

#3 The man behind the glorious push

Roode and Ziggler may be the next RAW Tag Team Champions.

Since being called up to the main roster in 2017, things have been interesting, to say the least for Robert Roode.

Despite being a former United States, 24/7 and RAW Tag Team Champion, Roode has done very little on the main roster, especially over the past year.

This is a far cry from Roode's time in NXT, where he was one of the brand's top stars, as well as a former NXT Champion.

Last week though, the Glorious One got a huge victory on Monday Night RAW, teaming with Dolph Ziggler to become the number one contenders for the RAW Tag Team Titles.

Defeating four teams in a RAW, Roode and Ziggler will face Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins at Clash of Champions, and the Canadian reportedly has support backstage.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Roode's new push is down to RAW Executive Director Paul Heyman, who is said to be a big fan of the former TNA star and wanted to give him something.

That something may be the RAW Tag Team Titles, which Roode and Ziggler will challenge for on September 15.

#2 Former Tag Team Champions to return soon

Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler may have become the number one contenders for the WWE Raw Tag Team Championships, but they still have a long way before they hold the gold.

At Clash of Champions in less than two weeks, the pair will face current champions Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman, and even if they win the titles, it may be a short reign.

That's because according to a report by the Observer, Jimmy and Jey Uso are expected to return very soon.

As most fans will know, 2019 hasn't exactly been the best year for the team, who lost the SmackDown Tag Team Champions earlier this year to Shane McMahon and The Miz.

Outside the ring, the pair have been in serious hot water, with Jey being arrested in January last year, and Jimmy being arrested twice this year, once in February and a second time in July.

Though these arrests can't have helped their chances, the pair remains a very popular unit and could be back competing for tag gold sooner rather than later.

#1 The Wednesday Night Wars going to the next level?

The two shows will go head to head later this year in what fans are calling the Wednesday Night Wars.

Though both WWE and All Elite Wrestling have claimed that there isn't a war between the two promotions, it sure feels like one.

After the success of AEW's recent All Out Pay Per View, the company will launch their TV show on TNT next month, which will go up against WWE's NXT, which has been extended to two hours and moved to the USA Network.

This will see both shows air at the same time, and according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter this week, the WWE could already be planning their next strike.

Since it's relaunch as a developmental brand in the summer of 2012, NXT has become one of the most popular aspects of WWE programming, with many fans preferring it to RAW or SmackDown Live.

It'll be interesting to see whether the company can keep this seven-year momentum going when the yellow brand launches on the USA Network next month.
