Below are some top WWE & AEW news stories of the day:
– Former WWE Champion Bray Wyatt was scheduled to face Bobby Lashley at WrestleMania 39. However, due to an unknown illness, the match got canceled and Wyatt missed the biggest show of the year.
Ever since his return to WWE at last year’s Extreme Rules premium live event, Wyatt only wrestled one televised match, where he defeated LA Knight in a Mountain Dew Pitch Black Match at Royal Rumble 2023.
According to Fightful Select, the illness that Wyatt is actively recovering from was both career and life threatening.
As noted before, Fightful reported that Wyatt could be back in the ring by next month if he’s fully recovered and cleared by the doctors. Ideas for his return have been pitched by Creative in WWE recently.
