It's no secret that the leader of The Vision had an embarrassing record against The American Nightmare, having never defeated him in singles competition until recently.

"The truth is, I told Cody (Rhodes) I’d do anything by any means necessary. Whatever it took I was trying to going to beat him. I saw an opportunity, I took it. It didn’t pay off and honestly there might be some long-term (inaudible) but in the end, I was going to lay it all on the line.” (H/T- ITRWrestling)

Is Shane McMahon on his way back to WWE?

Shane O'Mac has been absent from WWE since WrestleMania 39, with little to no update on whether the company intends to have him back in the fold. However, a couple of developments have led to growing speculation about his return.

A few days back, it came to light that McMahon was added to the active roster list on WWE's website. While this could just be a glitch, it was enough to get the internet talking. And now, with Seth Rollins using the Coast-to-Coast in Perth, the chatter surrounding his return could only further intensify. Regardless of what eventually happens, it has given the fans lots to speculate about.
