WWE Top Five Rumors of the week and Analysis: 29 May, 2016

The rumor mill had a lot to buzz about this week thanks to the announcement of WWE’s brand split. There have been a lot of rumors about the same long back, but WWE dropped the news all of a sudden and it shocked the fans big time. Along with it, there has been a string of rumors poking around about the Money in the Bank which is just weeks away.

The returning John Cena also gave us a hot topic to talk about. So in short, the past week was nothing short of epic if you are a rumor junkie. With that said, we are going to look at the top rumors from this past week and how they could affect the WWE product.

Ric Flair to have a new role?

WWE dropped a big change in direction on Raw when they decided to split Charlotte and Ric Flair. Charlotte had a meaty heel promo and cut her ties with Flair. The same leaves Flair without much to do in the main roster, but WWE could come up with something for him. An experienced star like Flair would come in handy during the brand split, and WWE is apparently planning to use him without Charlotte.

As for Charlotte, WWE is high on Dana Brooke and although Dana is still developing as a wrestler, she could be lined up for a feud with Charlotte in the future after a turn from either of the superstars.
