Below are a couple of top WWE news stories of the day.
• Former AEW Star’s WWE Return Has Been Confirmed
After pulling an autographed Rusev wrestling card at Fanatics Live Signing, Big E confirmed that former AEW star Miro is indeed returning to WWE.
Here’s what the former New Day member said:
“Someone who has just been announced to return. I actually reached out to him and he confirmed that the news is indeed true. I don’t know when he’ll be back. A blast from the past and now very topical because he just announced he is returning to the squared circle in World Wrestling Entertainment.”

• Triple H Addresses Fans Who Criticize Jey Uso’s Wrestling Skills
Some fans have criticized Jey Uso’s in-ring ability ahead of his World Heavyweight Championship match against “The Ring General” Gunther at WrestleMania 41.
During an interview with Peter Rosenberg, Triple H explained how in-ring ability doesn’t make someone a successful top guy in WWE, and why Jey is a top guy:
“Because people made it happen. Sometimes things happen organically along the way that get you to where you wanna be. And Jey through The Bloodline saga was sort of a linch-pin in that story, then goes off on his own.
Jey, when he had the opportunities (post-Bloodline), would click on the moments and at the end of the day, our business is about moments.
Jey has great athletic ability and the things he does in the ring, he does well. Is he the most technical guy? No. Is he the greatest performer in-ring? No. But he has a charisma and likability that lets people in and they wanna see him succeed.
Make me a list of the greatest performers in this business and that list will be two thirds people that were worse than majority of the list of great workers that didn’t get to the top.
When you walk into a building with 10-30-60,000 and he walks out and that whole place is doing his entrance, hanging on everything he does — that’s what it takes to be a top guy, it’s about box office, and Jey is proving he’s ‘Main Event’ Jey Uso — win, lose, or draw at WrestleMania, that connection with the crowd will be his moment.”
As we noted earlier, WrestleVotes reported that Gunther vs. Jey Uso for the World Title will be the opening match of WrestleMania 41 – Night 1.
