Lead Rumor: WrestleMania date We know WrestleMania will be held in Saudi Arabia next year, for better or worse, but we still don’t have an official date. Why is that? The word from Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio is that “it’s the same reason why we didn’t have a Royal Rumble date until a couple days ago. It’s all political jockeying.” He would go on to say that everyone expects Tony Khan to do something head-to-head and WWE is under no pressure to announce the date far ahead of time because ticket demand won’t be the same on a global scale because of where the event is being held. Having said all this, he did say it’s probably going to end up being April 10 & 11. Other rumors floating around False Finish claims the real reason Crown Jewel aired on a 10-15 minute tape deals was because they had a minimal production crew there. They also say the promos on the post-show from the likes of Cody Rhodes, Tiffany Stratton, Penta, and Je’Von Evans were taped while the show was still ongoing. Only Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn were exceptions. Rich Swann’s contract with TNA will expire at the end of the year, says Fightful Select. They also say Rosemary, who is out of action right now with a torn ACL, is still working behind-the-scenes with TNA as an agent/producer/coach. You heard anything? Share it!
