Lead Rumor: Lil Yachty training Just the other day, word came in from False Finish that Lil Yachty is here to work in WWE “for the foreseeable future” and he’s been at the Performance Center training in preparation for his match with Baron Corbin at Sunday Night’s Main Event. Well, according to Bryan Alvarez, he’s been training for months now. He also revealed who he’s been training with — none other than Ivy Nile and her husband, Ari Levy, who is a fitness instructor.

Something tells me he’ll be just fine.

TRNBCKL and False Finish indicate WWE already has several vignettes filmed for Lola Vice’s call up to the main roster and they are expected to begin airing on Friday Night SmackDown in the coming weeks. Rosemary suffered an injury at a recent Firestar Pro Wrestling event and she is expected to miss significant time, says Fightful. Get in on this, y’all.
