WWE Moving On From Major Program, Bella Twins Returning, Tony Khan Made Tough Call, WWE/COVID-19 Update

Is WWE already moving on from Bayley vs. Sasha Banks?

WWE is finished with Bayley vs. Sasha Banks for now. The company teased a breakup for months, only for Bayley to finally turn on Banks a couple of months ago. Banks went on to beat Bayley for the SmackDown Women’s title at Hell in a Cell and retain in a rematch on SmackDown. There is always a chance WWE picks back up on it but for now, it will be interesting to see if Bayley qualifies for the Women’s Team SmackDown for Survivor Series. Banks is penciled in for a program with Carmella. Given the amount of time WWE spent teasing the split, I thought they would extend out the program but that is not the case.

Now that they have both have their babies, is there is any chance The Bella Twins return to WWE?

The Bell Twins teased recently on Access Hollywood they are interested in returning to challenge for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship. Sure, it could be kayfabe but I would not be surprised if they end up returning at some point.

What went in to the decision to put The Young Bucks over FTR for the AEW World Tag Team Championship at Full Gear?

Tony Khan felt it was time to change the titles and ultimately made the call to put The Young Bucks over against FTR at Full Gear. They wanted to wait, according to comments they made on the record after the pay-per-view. FTR end up with the shortest tag title reign in the early history of the titles at 63 days. Generally AEW likes longer title reigns to help establish prestige to the new belts.

Are WWE talent tested every week for COVID-19?

The current protocol calls for WWE superstars to be tested for COVID-19 the day before TV. Immediately after getting tested, a Superstar is to quarantine until they work. The hope is to have the results before they are scheduled to work. This is something that has improved from the early days of the pandemic.
