Daniel Bryan's role in breaking up The New Day in WWE
WWE finally broke up The New Day in the recent WWE Draft after the trio had worked together for years. Big E was left on SmackDown, while Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods were drafted to Monday Night RAW.
Big E is now set to get a singles push on the blue brand, but it looks like the decision was made by someone new in the creative team. The former Intercontinental Champion has revealed that Daniel Bryan is the one behind the decision. Talking on Gorilla Position, Big E said:
"The nice part too is I feel like I have a voice with the SmackDown creative team. We're able to go back and forth with some ideas and they're actually listening. Also, I have to give credit to Daniel Bryan because the run, the idea for the solo run was from him, like Bryan is the reason.
"He's not just like 'Hey, Big E...' but he's actually a part of the process. He's the one who said 'Hey, this is what we should with Big E' so he's been behind that and for that I'm really grateful but it feels like an environment where I do have a voice.
"I'm not saying that I get to do everything I want to by any means and I also think...I think RAW has a great roster as well, but I love our roster. I look around and I see a lot of talent and a lot of new...especially with this draft. I feel like we got better with the draft when I look around at the roster and just the opportunity to have some fresh match-ups."
Big E is expected to continue receiving his push and was recently involved in a feud with Sheamus on SmackDown. It's unknown what the future holds for him blue brand, but many have touted him as a potential opponent for Roman Reigns.
CM Punk's sly dig at WWE WrestleMania 37
CM Punk has joked that he would be willing to do the opening match at WrestleMania 37 instead of main eventing it. He took a dig at WWE's length of the pay-per-view and claimed that the show is "67 hours long."
The former WWE Champion was doing a Q&A on Twitter when a fan asked him about main eventing the show of shows. The fan wanted to see Punk return to take on Roman Reigns next April.
The plan for Roman Reigns is reportedly to take on his cousin, The Rock at WrestleMania 37. Reports suggest that the plans all point towards the big clash with Reigns and Rock talking openly about the possibility of the match taking place.
As for right now, WWE are pushing Roman Reigns to become the biggest heel in the company. WrestlingNews also report that The Usos will be joining forces with the WWE Universal Champion soon.
Paul Davis reports the trio will form a heel faction, but it will take time as the storyline will see Jimmy and Jey Uso unwilling to join their cousin at first.
Miro heaps prise on WWE's Lana
AEW star Miro, fka Rusev, has heaped praise on WWE Superstar Lana. He claims that his wife is doing her job to perfection and is the most talented person in the business.
"She’s going out there and doing her job, and doing her job to perfection. Because you can see, in that ring, when she gets that time, you can see who’s who and who’s been working, and who’s been sitting on their a***s the whole time. And I’m so freaking proud of CJ, man, because she’s proven that she’s most likely the most talented and underrated person in the whole entire wrestling community."
Lana is currently having a tough time dealing with Nia Jax, but is getting a small push on Monday Night RAW. She recently won the Battle Royal to face RAW Women's Champion Asuka and this week, won her match to be a part of the RAW women's team for Survivor Series.
As for Miro, he was released by WWE during the mass exodus earlier this year. He has since gone on to join All Elite Wrestling and made his debut as Kip Sabian's best man.
WWE and AEW interested in signing Thunder Rosa

"Serena Deeb of AEW (sorry) won the NWA women's title from Thunder Rosa tonight. We did hear about this likely happening and that both WWE & AEW had interest in her."
Thunder Rosa was offered a refereeing contract by WWE recently, but she turned it down. She revealed on Talk Is Jericho, that she was not sure about it as she wanted to do MMA at that time.
However, just days after signing a contract with Combate Americas for her first MMA fight, she got a call from NWA and she joined them. Thunder Rosa is now considered as one of the best wrestlers in the world, so it is not a surprise that WWE and AEW are fighting to get her on board.

The WWE Universe have been complaining about WWE not announcing all the matches for pay-per-views in advance. The company seems to be listening and have already announced a big match for Survivor Series.
The PPV is once again set to follow the Monday Night RAW vs. Friday Night SmackDown format for bragging rights. Last year, NXT also took part in the matches, but this year, that does not seem to be the case.
RAW after Hell in a Cell was all about the build-up for the next PPV, Survivor Series, and WWE announced that Asuka would be taking on Sasha Banks. The RAW Women's Champion versus the SmackDown Women's Champion match takes place on November 22nd.
