- According to Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net, WWE is adding two more months to Dash Wilder of The Revival’s contract due to the time that Wilder was injured. Haynes wrote:

"The two months of injury time that have been added to Dash’s contract are from back in 2017 when Wilder had to miss time after suffering a broken jaw. We can now officially confirm that Dash Wilder’s current WWE contract will now expire in June 2020, instead of April."

- It appears that The Singh Brothers have been moved to the 205 Live brand from Smackdown. The team lost to Lince Dorado and Gran Metalik in their first match on the brand.

In addition to that, Killian Dain is reportedly being moved to the NXT brand now that Sanity have broken up.
 
So supposedly he wants to retire from wwe at Wrestlemania 36. What you bet it’s against Reigns for the title which means they’ll probably put the title on Lesnar again and Reigns beats him for it

- According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com, Vince McMahon outright told Luke Harper in writing that he would not grant Harper a release. Meltzer noted that Harper was regularly pitching ideas when he was injured but WWE turned them all down. Meltzer added that "Vince said that he didn’t ‘get him’ and complained that he couldn’t even do a Southern accent (that was from them wanting him to do a Southern accent four years ago)."

When plans for a feud with Sami Zayn were dropped after Wrestlemania, Harper was told he wasn’t needed but then was brought to Smackdown to work a dark match with EC3. Vince McMahon apparently didn’t like the match (specifically the manager spots that involved Drake Maverick) and that led to Harper not being assigned to a brand. At that point, Harper decided to ask for his release.
 
In an interview with Fightful.com, Lio Rush addressed his issues with WWE...

"My issue has never been with Bobby (Lashley)," Lio told Fightful. "Being with Bobby has helped the both of us out tremendously. It’s given me speaking confidence I didn’t know i had. I never was a promo guy on the indies. But being with Bobby made me a promo guy. My issue isn’t with my on screen role. My issue is the fact that I haven’t been on meet & greets with Bobby, haven’t been getting paid for merchandise for us that has my catchphrases on them. (I) have been sent to live shows and TVs and forced to pay for my own rental for 5 days as well as hotel while not making enough money to do so. Walking around broke in the biggest sports entertainmentindustry that there is while having two kids and a wife to support."

Rush also addressed the report that he wasn't "paying his dues" with the veteran talents behind the scenes:

"It’s not about race and it has never been, but public perception is important to me and when we have fans that travel all over the globe and watch us get off of buses and into hotels, the LOOK of a black kid carrying waters and bags for other wrestlers is just not a good look, especially when I’m trying to portray myself as a superstar as well."

He's right, the hell people gotta carry other people's shit for. After seeing shit like this how can anyone wanna sign with this dumb ass company.
 
Daniel Bryan was backstage for the WWE SmackDown tapings in Columbus, OH this week and has been medically cleared to return to action, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

Bryan will be written back into the storylines soon, possibly as early as next week.

As we’ve noted, Bryan suffered some sort of injury in the WWE Title loss to Kofi Kingston at WrestleMania 35. His situation was being closely guarded by the company, but there’s still no word yet on what the issue was.

Bryan is currently scheduled to face Kofi and Kevin Owens in Triple Threat matches on the upcoming WWE European tour.
