The world of professional wrestling has witnessed a whirlwind of shocking developments this week. From WWE’s alleged rejection of a legendary comeback to a surprising retirement in AEW, fans are reeling from the news. In this edition, we go into the top three stories that have taken the wrestling world by storm.
Firstly, WWE Hall of Famer Edge revealed in a recent interview that the WWE management rejected his idea to bring back Attitude Era legend Gangrel for his Hell in a Cell match against Finn Balor at WrestleMania 39. The Rated-R Superstar wanted to recreate his iconic Brood-style entrance, but unfortunately, the idea was met with disapproval from the WWE brass, who believed that nobody would remember Gangrel now.
Meanwhile, in AEW, Chuck Taylor has made a shocking announcement, hanging up his boots after a 22-year wrestling career. The Kentucky Gentleman’s decision to retire comes after a parking lot match against Trent Beretta, where he suffered a devastating ankle injury that may require surgery. Rumors suggest that Taylor’s injury is potentially career-ending, with necrosis of the bone fragments underneath the cartilage. The news has sent shockwaves through the AEW community, with fans mourning the loss of a beloved wrestler.
Lastly, Bryan Danielson’s contract expiry has been making headlines, with the American Dragon revealing that his deal expires before All In. Despite this, Danielson remains optimistic about making it to London for the event. In a recent interview, he expressed his desire to conclude his full-time wrestling career at the WrestleDream pay-per-view. Before that, however, Danielson has vowed to save AEW from The Young Bucks, joining forces with Eddie Kingston and FTR to face the Elite in an Anarchy in the Arena Match at Double or Nothing 2024.
With these developments, the wrestling world is abuzz with excitement and anticipation. As fans, we can’t help but wonder what’s next for AEW and WWE.
