Below are a couple of top WWE news stories of the day, featuring Ricochet and Gigi Dolin.
• In anticipation of Ricochet’s exit from WWE, the company has already started implementing creative changes. According to a recent report from Fightful Select, these moves are designed to facilitate his departure smoothly.
One significant step was seen after Friday’s SmackDown, where Ricochet lost the WWE Speed Championship to Andrade. This title change is just the beginning, as WWE is reportedly considering additional strategies to write Ricochet off television if necessary.
Among the proposals being discussed is a storyline on RAW where Bron Breakker would incapacitate Ricochet, providing a decisive exit for the high-flying star.

• NXT wrestler Gigi Dolin is currently sidelined due to a significant knee injury. After working some recent segments alongside Arianna Grace, Dolin’s storyline took an unexpected turn as Grace moved into new angles on NXT television.
This sudden shift was confirmed by Fightful Select, who linked it to Dolin’s knee injury. The injury speculation began when Dolin was seen wearing a knee brace, prompting concerns among fans.
As a result, Dolin’s program with Grace has been dropped. Despite this setback, Dolin remains with the company. There had been ongoing discussions about Dolin’s potential transition to the main roster, especially given her appearances on WWE’s Main Event. She notably appeared on two episodes of SmackDown in 2022 and three episodes of Main Event between December 2023 and January 2024.
Dolin has been absent backstage at several tapings, instead filming her segments with Grace outside the WWE Performance Center. This strategy was reportedly used to maintain her TV presence during her injury hiatus.
Since her loss to Grace on the March 12th edition of NXT, Dolin has not competed in the ring and underwent a makeover at the hands of her adversary.
