WWE Rumor Roundup: Bray Wyatt's WrestleMania 36 opponent, Sasha Banks takes shot at Triple H and more – 18th November 2019 

In today's roundup, we take a look at the surprising words Roman Reigns reserved for King Corbin, backstage news on WWE Superstars who asked for their release and more!

Before we get to all that, let us take a look at the two headline-makers of the day

Bray Wyatt's WrestleMania 36 opponent

Bray Wyatt's 'The Fiend' gimmick is easily the best thing happening in WWE right now, and it looks like the company might be planning more big things for the WWE Universal champion.

Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio has stated that Brock Lesnar might be the one to face Bray Wyatt at the Grandest Stage of Them All, WrestleMania 36. He said:

"The one thing is that with Brock, see we’re in November, they will pretty much have Brock’s match locked up in the next month. You know Brock’s stuff, because of Paul, because of Brock, and because of Vince, it is always well-planned out in advance. And we should see hints of whatever it is pretty soon.

"I’m still thinking it might be Bray Wyatt. Although they are on different brands, so maybe that’s out of the question, but maybe it’s not, and even if it is out of the question today, it may not be out of the question in a month. If ratings go down, you know, what decision would they make at that point?"

Will Wyatt end up defeating Lesnar or will the Beast Incarnate end The Fiend's unbeaten run?

Sasha Banks takes shot at Triple H

On top of being the Boss, I’ve decided to also become the landlord because I own everything! I made NXT & I’m gonna love destroying it. Y’all haven’t paid your dues so consider your asses evicted! #TeamSmackDown #Vince>HunTAH #LegitBoss https://t.co/q9wLCNhzuz

Sasha Banks is someone who loves to stir up the WWE Universe. When she was on a hiatus, she kept tweeting about other wrestling promotions and made it look as if she was on the verge of leaving WWE.

Now, with Survivor Series coming up, she has tweeted something that is sure to catch everyone's attention, Banks used a simple hashtag that said Vince > Huntah.

Will Triple H and his NXT Superstars prevail at the pay per view or will the main roster demolish the upcoming stars?

Backstage news on Superstars asking for their release

Luke Harper

A handful of WWE Superstars have asked for their release lately but WWE have not granted it to anyone. Luke Harper, Mike Kanellis, The Revival, Oney Lorcan and Sin Cara are among the Superstars who have asked for their release from the company, although no decision has been made yet.

Speaking on the Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer said:

"There’s a school of thought that all these guys that want to leave are there that aren’t happy and they are really not, that it just kind of like hurts morale, and it’s just better to let them go. But they are not letting them go. I know people who have argued to let people go. But they are not letting them go still. So until they do, you know all these guys be quiet, it’s easy for me to say."

Tye Dillinger was released earlier this year and he ended up joining All Elite Wrestling. That is something WWE are reportedly trying to avoid and thus, no releases have been granted.

Roman Reigns on King Corbin

Roman Reigns was on Corey Graves' After The Bell Podcast where he had some interesting things to say about King Corbin. The former WWE Champion was full of praise for the King of the Ring, stating that he used the situation well. He said:

"He rubbed everybody a certain way and when he got into the ring he picked it up. He's a big guy with good timing. It's one of those things and you've seen it a billion times – including likely with me – guys will just get it.

"There would be a point in time where two left feet just becomes good footwork and it just clicks. In the past couple of years, that transition has happened for him and ever since he cut that hair off and got real stupid and cocky, it started working for him."

Corbin and Roman will need to put their rivalry aside this week when they team up to take on Team RAW and Team NXT in a 5-man tag-team triple threat match.
