WWE Smackdown: Two Title Matches And More Announced For April 21 Episode
In more updates, Xero News has declared that WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio will be in action on WWE Raw against Solo Sikoa. Rey is expected to appear in a confrontation featuring The Judgment Day and The Bloodline to set this match up. Given Sikoa’s protected status on WWE TV, Rey is likely to put over The Samoan Dynasty member by digesting a loss.
Two weeks ago, during the WWE Raw after Wrestlemania 39 episode, a segment featuring Seth Rollins was canceled at the very last minute. Once the show went off the air, former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. claimed on his podcast that Seth walked out of that episode following that sudden change.
Then Seth was also a no-show during last week’s April 10 episode of WWE Raw which fueled up rumors about the top superstar possibly leaving the WWE. WRKD Wrestling dismissed any kind of such rumors and the possible reason behind that absence was due to some of the WWE talents facing travel issues.
In more update, Xero News has now confirmed Seth’s presence on the April 17 episode set to emanate from the Simmons Bank Arena in Little Rock, Arkansas. Plus, the multi-time world champion is also scheduled to feature in a match against The Miz.
