#4 WWE veteran Gran Metalik wants to leave WWE

Latin American website Mas Lucha has reported that 16-year veteran Gran Metalik has asked for his release from WWE. The King of the Ropes is allegedly unhappy with his position in the company and the lack of opportunities given to him.

After an impressive performance in the Cruiserweight Classic in 2016, Metalik has languished on the WWE roster, failing to capture even a single championship during his 5-year run with the company.

Metalik is currently part of a tag team with Lince Dorado called The Lucha House Party. However, the two are primarily used as enhancement talent. Metalik's original contract expires in 2023.


#3 Booker T believes Bron Breakker is ready for the WWE main roster

Rick Steiner's son Bron Breakker has already made an impact in WWE since joining NXT 2.0. The superstar is believed to be a future NXT Champion and has been receiving praise from top names all over the industry.

WWE Hall of Famer Booker T is also mighty impressed with the young star. Speaking on his podcast, Booker said that WWE should strap the rocket on Breakker and give him a big push already.

''He's a main roster guy already. Bron Breakker, young Steiner, he's a main roster guy right now. He's not a guy we have to look at and wonder if he's going to be a star or not. I'm just saying that because I've been impressed just from the outset,'' said Booker

The former WCW world champion also said that Breakker doesn't need to be repackaged as he already knows the business and is a class apart inside the ring.
