Big Bill is leaving AEW

Fightful Select reported earlier this year that Big Bill’s AEW contract was coming up during the Summer. Fightful Select has confirmed that his deal is up over the next week. In addition to that, Bill officially gave his notice to All Elite Wrestling.

Big Bill is poised to return to WWE, where he performed as Big Cass for a number of years. In addition, plans call for Enzo Amore to be signed by the company, though he wasn’t officially inked to a deal as of mid-June. The word from within WWE was that the company wanted to make sure to wait until Big Bill was free and clear and sign both wrestlers.

WWE reportedly chose NOT to have Oba Femi challenge for a World Title at SummerSlam for one major reason

Despite winning the 2026 Men’s King of the Ring Tournament, WWE is reportedly building toward a gigantic showdown between Oba Femi and Roman Reigns and wants to hold off until the moment feels as big as possible

Internally, there is reportedly a strong belief that Oba Femi is “The Guy” and the company’s next breakout megastar that will lead them into the future

It was also noted that WrestleMania 43 in Saudi Arabia has been discussed as a potential stage for The Ruler Vs The Tribal Chief

Ok bigger stage cool. But umma rumma...what does that say about RR and EC and the winners for that?

B/c if Oba's win at KotR is an automatic lock for a title shot...what does that mean for RR and RC?

Dude just disappeared with no explanation.

So what was the point of him winning KOTR?

It’s not outta the realm of possibility that they face each other before hand and he takes a L. Rather that happens then they try to pull that shit at Mania. If Oba gets the title shot at say Money in the Bank, and him getting screwed leads to a program that keeps him busy until he wins the Rumble or Elimination Chamber than it’s not the end of the world.

They do gotta address the title shot shit sooner than later and not forget about it.

I think Oba and Reigns gonna clash before mania and then he'll just earn the shot again for mania

They aren’t gonna blow this match off at any PLE that isn’t Mania. They would have just done it here for SummerSlam if that was the case.

They’re gonna have to come up with some mental gymnastics as to why Oba is gonna wait it out

That’s why I said they do it at Money in the Bank.

Do it at Survivor Series

If they view Oba the way they claim they do than that’s not a match you have at MITB either. Plus ain’t that shit taking place at the Smoothie King Arena? Lol

Weren't they doing it in the Superdome?

Eww, it is at Smoothe King. Yea do that shit at Survivor Series there ain’t been a world title match there in years

 

[Iceberg_Taylor]

Weren't they doing it in the Superdome?

Eww, it is at Smoothe King. Yea do that shit at Survivor Series there ain’t been a world title match there in years

Nah they were gonna do Mania initially at the Superdome before decided on doing Vegas again. Once they changed it up & gave Nawlins MITB they decided on Smoothie King

Trash.

With that said I kinda hope they do Survivor Series in another stadium. They still haven’t put out a location for that yet.

 

[PhenomTheMac]

Combo breaker

 

[PhenomTheMac]

Oba beats Brock. Tries to spin the block on Roman.

Roman of course aint feeling that, sics the bloodline on him that takes us through the Fall.

Oba wins the Rumble re-gains his right to challenge for the title and there you are.

Maybe not but they could get desperate

I could see them throwing obstacles in his way to keep the match from happening tho to buy time till mania

I never had a issue w/ it happening at mania cause Oba and Reigns both had hinted at that being the play on this past manias panel anyway. It didnt seem like they were rushing to it but like u said they should of had Brock screw him over in the KOTR instead of going all around the world like they always do.

Rollins could of won the tourney and earned his shot at Reigns that way

Lesnar costing Oba could of set up the HIAC & Lesnars retirement if that's what its gone be

Then we could of got Oba winning the Rumble or EC to get to Reigns at mania

 

[TonyDubbz]

At the end of the day im not tripping about none of this shit and how it unfolds so far tho.. cus it all has Oba WINNING and they stacking shit on this niggas resume its bout damn time we had a nigga up top getting that kinda treatment so I ain't gone complaiin

Now he about to put Lesnar down for a second time inside HIAC and possibly retire him again
