• WWE Tag Team Expected To Return Soon
According to Post Wrestling, Akam has been cleared to return to in-ring action and this means that former RAW Tag Team Champions AOP (Akam & Rezar) are expected to return to WWE programming soon.
WWE officials are now figuring out a storyline for AOP’s return.
