• Update On Released WWE Wrestler’s Status After TNA Return

At the Turning Point event on Friday night, recently released WWE NXT wrestler Wes Lee returned to TNA as Dezmond Xavier.

He teamed up with his partners in The Rascalz (Trey Miguel, Myron Reed, and Zachary Wentz) to defeat The System (Brian Myers, Eddie Edwards, JDC, and Moose).

According to Fightful Select, Xavier is currently not signed to a TNA contract, though the company still has creative plans for him alongside his teammates.

Additionally, sources noted that Zachary Wentz’s contract with TNA expires at the end of the year. Once that happens, the group intends to explore their next moves, with indications that outside promotions are showing interest in The Rascalz.

• Randy Orton’s Potential Return Date Revealed

Randy Orton hasn’t appeared on WWE programming since the October 3th episode of SmackDown, where he came to Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes’ aid against The Vision.

That night, Orton teamed with Rhodes to face Bron Breakker and “Big” Bronson Reed, but the duo came up short after Reed pinned Orton following interference from Seth Rollins in the main event.

The former WWE Champion is currently advertised for the post-Survivor Series episode of SmackDown on December 5th in Austin, Texas. This doesn’t necessarily confirm that he will return that night – he could return earlier – but his next listed appearance on WWE’s website is for that episode.

The Viper was recently in Belize, where he celebrated his tenth anniversary with his wife, Kim Orton.

• Randy Orton Shoots Down John Cena’s Claim About Most RAW Matches

John Cena will make his final RAW appearance at Madison Square Garden in New York this Monday. The 17-time World Champion recently took to X to announce that he will wrestle on the show. He tweeted:

“Over 23 years you’ve allowed me to have 544 matches on #WWERaw. The most in WWE history. My favorite match.. is my next one! Which will be our LAST ONE! Don’t miss our last chance to grace @TheGarden ring as we say farewell to RAW live, Monday night on @netflix at 8pm ET!”

The GOAT also claimed in his tweet that he is the wrestler with the most number of matches on RAW. However, that is not the case.

The wrestler with the most matches on the red brand is Cena’s long-time rival Randy Orton, who has wrestled 457 times on RAW. Cena, on the other hand, has actually competed in 383 matches on the flagship show.

Randy Orton took to X today to correct Cena in a joking manner. He quoted his tweet with a GIF saying:

“Are you sure about that?”
