Eric Young Secretly Working for WWE?


The big wrestling rumour is that Eric Young has been contracted to WWE since November 1, 2022. Fightful Select reports that Paul 'Triple H' Levesque brought Young back to the promotion in a wrestling role last year. 


However, despite the rumors and reports, there has been no word of Young appearing backstage or on television. He wrapped up in Impact last year and was expected to sign with WWE but we hadn’t heard anything until just now. 





Young's return to WWE would certainly be exciting news for fans of the promotion. However, it's important to note that just because Young has been contracted to WWE, it doesn't necessarily mean that he will be appearing on television anytime soon. WWE is known for signing wrestlers to contracts and then keeping them off television until the time is right.


It's also worth noting that while Triple H may have brought Young back to WWE, it's unclear what his role will be within the promotion. WWE has a large and talented roster of wrestlers, and it's possible that Young could be brought in to work behind the scenes rather than as an on-screen talent. It’s possible that with Vince McMahon returning, Young may have to work a backstage role. 




Regardless of what role Young ends up playing in WWE, his return to the promotion is certainly exciting news for wrestling fans. With his years of experience and proven track record as a top-tier wrestler, there's no doubt that he could bring a lot to the table for WWE. We'll just have to wait and see what the future holds for Eric Young and his potential return to WWE.


You may remember when WWE resigned Davey Boy Smith Jr, they did nothing with him. Quietly releasing him in a rash of cuts. Will Eric Young have the same fate?

Book This Episode 1: The Summer of Punk Rebooked Prelude

     Let’s go back to 2011, specifically June of 2011. CM Punk’s contract is expiring soon and he’s getting ready to have the biggest run of his career. On June 27th, 2011 CM Punk would cut a promo that would have the wrestling world buzzing for years to come. In his promo, Punk said that his contract expired next month and that he, the Number One Contender, would be leaving  WWE with the WWE Championship. He’d also go onto take shots at not only his opponent the following month, John Cena but other icons in the history of WWE. Whether employed by the company or not. He’d also tease defending his WWE Championship in Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Essentially he’d be a travelling World Champion, ala the territory days. Well, CM Punk did win the WWE Championship the next month from John Cena at Money in the Bank. However, what would happen after would disappoint wrestling fans more than anything else that’s happened in years.       How t...

If John Cena Beats Cody Rhodes he Technically Becomes an 18-Time World Champion

  John Cena won the Elimination Chamber on Saturday night and secured an Undisputed WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania this April. What followed was a shocking heel turn that fans have wanted for years. That’s not what I’m talking about here. We’re talking about how John Cena will technically become an 18-time World Champion if he beats Cody Rhodes. That would put him two ahead of Ric Flair.  Ever since Roman Reigns beat Brock Lesnar to unify the WWE Championship and the Universal Championship. From that point on, WWE recognized Roman as having two Championship reigns. With the Universal Championship and with the WWE Championship. Same with Cody Rhodes when he beat Reigns for the Undisputed Championship at last year’s WresteMania. If you look at WWE’s website it shows two concurrent reigns for Cody.  If Cena beats Cody it’s always possible that WWE in the future recognizes this as one World Title reign instead of two. There’s a few of Flair’s reign...

Bobby Lashley Issues Warning to Jon Moxley

Bobby Lashley debuted in All Elite Wrestling on October 30th last year, rejoining his former WWE stablemates MVP and Shelton Benjamin, forming The Hurt Syndicate. Lashley and The Hurt Syndicate are one of the hottest acts in AEW right now with Lashley and Benjamin winning the World Tag Team Titles last month. It’s inevitable that Bobby Lashley will get a World Championship shot at some point. He’s very over right now and a legit main event talent.  Lashley gave a warning to AEW World Champion Jon Moxley when speaking to the Sporting Tribune . Lashley said it’s only a matter of time till they face off but he’s focused on his tag team right now. Lashley said that when Jon Moxley sees him in the locker room, he stays clear of him.  Despite being cheered like a babyface, Bobby Lashley is a heel and Jon Moxley is also a heel so I don’t see them facing off soon. But I like the idea of a Moxley/Lashley match whether it’s for the Title or not. Saying that, I’d also be a fan of Bo...
