Rumor Roundup (May 28, 2025)

On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that people within WWE have actually suggested asking fans not to swear during TV shows. He would later add, however, that he doesn’t expect it will actually happen.

Jonathan Coachman is claiming on Behind the Turnbuckle that he is hearing Travis Scott “flaked” on doing the tag team match with John Cena at Money in the Bank and he hasn’t been training with Booker T.

Per Fightful Select, there were creative discussions regarding Asuka at the beginning of the year but that was considered too early and it’s still uncertain when she’ll be cleared to return.

The Observer notes that there are a lot of “banged up” wrestlers in AEW coming out of Double or Nothing, including both the Young Bucks.

PW Insider claims the decision on who should win the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament Final between Will Ospreay and Hangman Page wasn’t finalized until hours before the show. They apparently went back-and-forth on it quite a bit before settling on Page. Fightful adds that the two wrestlers themselves pushed for the other to win.

For what it’s worth, Mick Foley told The Wrestling Classic that he had a secret meeting with MJF about a retirement match last year that never came to fruition. Foley said he loved the ideas MJF had for what would have been a six-week program.
