The Undisputed Era is on top in NXT at the moment as Roderick Strong and Kyle O’Reilly are the NXT Tag Team Champions while Adam Cole just recently became the first-ever North American Champion. Cole has had a few successful title defenses so far, but it was recently announced that Cole will be putting his title on the line against an opponent outside of the NXT roster when he competes in EVOLVE Wrestling during the promotion’s EVOLVE 107 event. It has just been announced that WALTER will be facing Cole for his championship during the show. The two of them will be competing against each other during the upcoming EVOLVE 107 show on June 24th.

A slew of WWE Superstars who have been forced to miss months of in-ring action are all reportedly set to return to television very soon. Jason Jordan has been backstage for medical testing during the past several editions of Monday Night Raw, and cruiserweight star Noam Dar is also now reported to be returning to the ring again within just a matter of time. One other superstar who has not been able to compete since January may be on her way back. According to a report from PWInsider, Alicia Fox is backstage at tonight’s Raw show in Little Rock, Arkansas. Fox has been out of action with a broken tailbone for months now, but she too is now expected to be wrestling once again soon.
It has mostly been a positive couple of months for Smackdown couple Rusev and Lana. Rusev remains one of the most popular stars on Smackdown due to his partnership with Aiden English, and his wife Lana has seemingly been added to the group. Rusev will be competing in the men’s Money in the Bank ladder match this Sunday while “The Ravishing Russian” also fights in the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match. Unfortunately, it appears that the two of them have run into a bit of bad luck as “The Bulgarian Brute” just insinuated through a message on Twitter that he had his money stolen while Lana’s camera was also taken during their recent stay in Memphis.
Thank you @sheratonhotels Memphis for “cleaning” the room and stealing my wife camera and my money from my wallet
