We all love a good rumor right? Something to discuss over the water cooler at work.

Well in the WWE, there are plenty of rumors abound, as the company and its fans barrel forward on the road to WrestleMania 35.

With the Elimination Chamber pay per view now behind us, the WWE Universe looks forward to Fastlane, the final pit-stop on the road to the Showcase of the Immortals.

Some huge title matches have already been announced, including a huge SmackDown Tag Team Championship rematch, as well as the New Day's Kofi Kingston getting his shot at the WWE Championship against the new Daniel Bryan.

But with Fastlane and WrestleMania on the horizon, there are plenty of rumors going around right now.

Here are five WWE Rumors from this week that you simply can't afford to miss:

#5: Happy in NXT

Former NXT Champion Aleister Black made his presence known on RAW last week.

Since its relaunch in 2012, NXT has become arguably the most popular aspect of WWE programming.

Once a reality show, NXT has now become WWE's developmental brand, a feeder to the main roster, with its own subsequent spin-off: NXT UK.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter this week though, many stars of the WWE's third brand are happy where they are.

Whilst the report didn't give exact names, "a lot of top NXT stars" would rather stay in the yellow brand, and one top NXT star "dreads the idea of being called up to either RAW or SmackDown Live".

The same report also states that others can't wait to be called up though, so who knows which star of NXT will be the next one to make their presence known on the main roster.
