• WWE Is Interested In Signing 3 AEW Wrestlers
WWE appears to be setting its sights on some fresh talent from AEW, as new reports suggest the company is interested in bringing in Danhausen and the tag team Private Party (Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen). According to BodySlam, WWE is keeping close tabs on all three performers, whose current AEW contracts are believed to be nearing their end. While no official deals have been announced, sources indicate that a potential move to WWE could happen sooner rather than later.
Danhausen, known for his unique blend of comedy and dark persona, has gained a cult following in the wrestling world. Meanwhile, Private Party has been a standout tag team since arriving in AEW’s early days. They won the AEW World Tag Team Championship last year by defeating The Young Bucks, and went on to drop the titles to The Hurt Syndicate (Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin) earlier this year in January.
If WWE successfully signs them, it could signal another significant talent shift between wrestling’s two major promotions, continuing the ongoing competition for star power and fan interest.
• The Rock Had Tight Control Over His Upcoming WWE Documentary Appearance
The Rock continues to be one of WWE’s biggest stars – even when he’s not in the ring – and it turns out he plays a significant role in how he’s portrayed across the company’s media platforms. According to Post Wrestling, Rock’s team has been actively involved in shaping his appearances for the upcoming WWE Unreal documentary. His representatives have reportedly provided notes and feedback on the episodes where he appears, ensuring that both his portrayal and any related storylines align with his standards.
Further details from WrestleVotes reveal that Rock’s influence extends well beyond the documentary. For the past several years, his team has held final approval over any WWE media content featuring him. Whether it’s a social media post, video clip, or other promotional material, nothing goes public without first being reviewed and cleared by The Final Boss’ representatives.
This level of oversight shows the Attitude Era Legend’s commitment to carefully managing his image, both as a global entertainment icon and as part of WWE’s storied history. As WWE continues to produce new content featuring The Rock, fans can be sure his appearances will reflect his personal vision and brand. The Great One last appeared on WWE programming at Elimination Chamber on March 1st, where John Cena turned heel.
• Roman Reigns Welcomes His 6th Child
According to WrestleVotes, Roman Reigns and his wife, Galina Becker, welcomed their 6th child recently. This explains Roman’s prolonged absence from WWE programming. The Tribal Chief also took time off in 2020 to help out his wife, who gave birth to twins at the time, and not take any risk at the time of COVID (which is why he missed WrestleMania 36). He was last seen on WWE programming on the RAW after WrestleMania 41, where he was attacked by Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker.
Behind the scenes, WWE has started laying the groundwork for Reigns’ highly anticipated comeback. WrestleVotes recently reported that new merchandise and marketing materials are already in development, signaling that the company is getting serious about bringing The OTC back into the spotlight. While there had been talks about involving Reigns at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia, plans shifted. The focus is now firmly on his return ahead of SummerSlam, where he’s expected to play a major role.
Interestingly, WWE is also exploring variations of the “Tribal Chief” moniker, hinting at a possible refresh or evolution of his character when he resurfaces.

• Cody Rhodes & Roman Reigns Will Be In The Same Movie
The Hollywood Reporter recently confirmed that Roman Reigns will play the role of Akuma in the live-action “Street Fighter” movie. Now, Cody Rhodes is expected to be in this movie as well. Nexus Point News is reporting that The American Nightmare is currently in negotiations to join the cast of this upcoming Street Fighter film.
The role Rhodes is pursuing is none other than Guile, a fan-favorite fighter who’s been part of the franchise since Street Fighter II launched in 1991. Guile, known for his signature flat-top haircut and devastating “Sonic Boom” attack, has become one of the most recognizable characters in the series.
Beyond his combat prowess, Guile’s story has deep roots in military honor and personal loss. As a high-ranking officer in the U.S. Air Force, he’s driven by the mission to take down the villainous M. Bison and the Shadaloo organization, seeking justice for the death of his close friend. Yet despite his tough exterior and duty-bound mindset, he remains devoted to his family, striving to balance his military obligations with life at home alongside his wife and daughter.
If Rhodes lands the part, he’ll be following in the footsteps of action legend Jean-Claude Van Damme, who famously played Guile in the 1994 Street Fighter film adaptation.
Shooting for this movie will begin in August and it will take place in Australia.
