A WWE RAW roster member is seemingly getting closer to a return from a major injury.
In mid September of 2024, Ilja Dragunov suffered a torn ACL and has been out of action since. The injury came at a tough time for Dragunov as he looked to build momentum on the main roster. However, his return could be ‘sooner rather than later.
Fightful Select’s Corey Brennan has learned that Ilja Dragunov has been spotted at the WWE Performance Center training for his in ring return. It was noted to Brennan that Dragunov was not at the PC for rehab, as he was taking part in traditional training ahead of his in ring return and was not wearing any support gear for his injury.
Upon announcement of his injury, it was projected that Dragunov would be on the shelf for six to nine months, having sat out the last four months of in ring action.
We have not heard of any immediate creative plans for Dragunov’s return as of this writing, or if he will be returning in the immediate future.

Closest ima get plus New Orleans got amazing food so I'm def IN.
Jordynne Grace is expected at the WWE Performance Center this week, PWInsiderElite.com has confirmed with WWE sources.
Grace is now free and clear of TNA and as we reported last night, she was expected to be WWE-bound. Whether she appears on NXT programming this week remains to be seen.
Grace made a surprise WWE appearance in the 2024 Women's Royal Rumble match, an idea hatched by WWE Producer TJ Wilson.
That appearance helped pave the way for the current WWE x TNA talent partnership, which was officially signed as a multi-year deal last week.

With news of the TNA x WWE partnership, we've heard from WWE creative sources there has already been a pitch for a top TNA star to be in the Men's Royal Rumble match on 2/1. My hunch is new TNA Champion Joe Hendry.
Since we have gotten a ton of emails about this, we are told there are no plans for Corey Graves to be at tomorrow's WWE NXT.
Jade Cargill is expected back at the WWE Performance Center this week, which would be the third week in a row she's been in the ring working out ahead of her return to WWE television.
Lince Dorado has been hired to work as a NXT Coach. We have not heard if he is back with the company full-time as of this writing.

I think she was supposed to be the face in the feud…
Corey Graves has had a tumultuous last couple of weeks, returning to the NXT announce desk at NXT New Year’s Evil. However, he would miss the next week’s after a series of tweets voicing his displeasure at the move.
Earlier on Tuesday, PWInsider reported that Corey Graves would not be present at tonight’s edition of NXT. However, Fightful Select’s Corey Brennan has now learned that Corey Graves is listed for commentary on tonight’s edition of NXT, and is expected at the WWE PC for rehearsals for the show.
For those who have asked, there has been no indication from Graves or those close to him that this situation is a work.

What is people's beef with Brit? She is an AEW OG and probably their first nobody to make themselves a somebody. She has had some great matches in AEW as well. I'm legit confused on how fans and Tony Khan are having issues now. Sounds like Brit is being overlooked for what she has done for the AEW brand.
She sucks and think she's more than what she is. The backstage politics against Thunder Rosa doesn't help her. If everyone has a problem with her then maybe she's the issue
