#2. Hope true: Zilla Fatu Bloodline story major update
For a long time, Zilla Fatu has been expected to make his debut in the Stamford-based promotion. Recent reports have confirmed that the real-life Bloodline member is on his way to appearing in WWE soon.
Amid this, sources revealed that he was recently at the WWE Performance Center, and the company could kickstart his journey on the NXT brand before eventually adding him to the Bloodline saga.
“When he was at the Performance Center, they were talking about him starting in NXT before making the leap into the Bloodline story,” he reported.
We hope the rumor turns out to be true. WWE should utilize Zilla in the developmental brand. This will be similar to how Solo Sikoa made his main roster debut after spending some months in NXT.
#1. Hope true: CM Punk SummerSlam 2026 opponent
CM Punk is the new Undisputed Champion. The Second City Saint defeated Sami Zayn on RAW this week to capture the title. Now, Punk is heading into the Biggest Party of the Summer as champion.
As for his opponent, it appears that WWE is not planning a Punk vs. Zayn rematch at the premium live event. Instead, reports indicate that a match between Cody Rhodes and the Second City Saint is currently planned.
The Triple H-led creative regime first teased this feud on RAW after WrestleMania 42, and we hope the rumor proves true. This showdown would add another blockbuster match to the card, especially for a massive event like SummerSlam.
#3. Hope not true: Another beloved star departed
Since TKO merged with World Wrestling Entertainment, the group has made several major decisions. One of the most controversial developments is the restructuring of contracts. Reports claimed that TKO asked several veteran stars to accept pay cuts and restructure their ongoing contracts.
After rejecting the proposed terms, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods reportedly left the Stamford-based promotion in May 2026. More recently, Sheamus has also been rumored to have parted ways with WWE for the same reason.
Details revealed that the Irishman fizzled out during contract negotiations and rejected the offer. The company has also moved The Celtic Warrior to the Alumni section on its official website. We hope this rumor is not true, as the company should retain Sheamus.
He is one of the hardest-working talents on the roster and consistently delivers banger matches every time he steps into the squared circle.
#2. Hope not true: Real reason Sami Zayn lost the WWE title
Sami Zayn is no longer the Undisputed WWE Champion. The former Honorary Uce won the title at Night of Champions 2026, but his reign lasted just nine days. According to reports, the Chief Content Officer does not view Sami as a “money player,” which is believed to be the reason behind his title loss at the red brand.
We hope this rumor is not true. The Canadian star has worked hard and consistently delivered compelling storylines. The sports entertainment juggernaut should consider giving him another push as a main-event star.
#1. Hope not true: Bloodline star never coming back?
Real-life Bloodline member Tamina Snuka has not appeared on WWE television since 2023. Earlier, fans were hoping to see her return as part of the Bloodline saga, but that does not appear to be the case.
Her absence from television for more than three years has sparked speculation that she may never return to TV. Reports have revealed that she was backstage at RAW on one occasion during this period.
However, her name has reportedly not been discussed in the creative for a long time. We hope this rumor turns out to be false. The company should bring Tamina back to television or incorporate her into the Bloodline family drama for one final run before her official retirement.
