The World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is known as one of the most premier pro-wrestling companies in the world, delivering weekly programming for decades, which brings about a lot of rumors on a regular
basis online. While there might be some merit to the rumors, whether in WWE or other sports, they are far from factual information until proven right.
This is the reason why the fans of WWE should check them out, but not believe in them outright, especially at the expense of diluting their experience of watching the weekly programming. Regardless, SportsTiger will look back at the top WWE rumors of the week below for the fans to get their teeth in.
