7 biggest WWE rumors of the past week (March 10, 2019)

#2 The Shield are advertised to compete after WrestleMania 35

The Shield reunited on Raw

This past week on Raw, The Shield reunited once again and are now scheduled to face the team of Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, and Bobby Lashley at the Fastlane pay-per-view. But the group is rumored to stay together beyond WrestleMania 35.

According to LordsofPain.net, The Shield (Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins) vs. Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin is being advertised for the April 22 WWE RAW from the Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa.

This same match will take place at Sunday’s WWE Fastlane pay-per-view, indicating The Shield’s reunion will not be a “one night only” deal.

This move would make sense from WWE's side, as it would create buzz for WrestleMania season regarding how Reigns and Ambrose will be involved in Rollins' feud against Lesnar. Also, it could convince Ambrose to stay with the company for the foreseeable future.

#1 Brock Lesnar is headed back to UFC

UFC Heavyweight Champion, Daniel Cormier, is expected to face Brock Lensar in UFC

The current Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar, is rumored to return back to UFC following WrestleMania 35. His expected opponent in the octagon is UFC Heavyweight Champion, Daniel Cormier.

During the press conference of UFC 235, Dana White addressed when Lesnar will return to the octagon and who his opponent will be.

“I think that Brock and Cormier want that fight,” White said at the presser. “I owe Cormier a lot. Cormier wants that fight so Cormier’s going to get it.” When asked what time frame the fight might takes place during, White admitted he wasn’t sure. “I have no clue,” he said.

“I literally have not talked to Brock at all. He’s doing his WWE thing. He’s one of those guys that when he’s ready, he’ll call me. I don’t chase anybody around man, I make fights. And when people are ready to fight, they let me know. And if they’re not, we don’t talk.”

Lesnar has been expected to go back to UFC several times before, but he always ends-up signing a new deal with WWE.

The last date on his current contract is WrestleMania 35 where he will be to defending his Universal Championship against 2019 Men's Royal Rumble winner, Seth Rollins. This could be the last time Lesnar competes in a WWE ring before he heads back to the octagon.
