WWE's stiffest wrestlers revealed, update on the Wyatts, WWE Hall of famer set to train outside the WWE
- Big E was interviewed recently by the Sports Illustrated’s ‘Extra Mustard site recently and among the many things they discussed, Big E offered his take on the ‘stiffest’ wrestlers he has had to face in his time in the WWE.
For the uninitiated, the term ‘stiff’ is used to describe someone who works stronger than the others and has a more physical style. Over the years, that style has slowed down as the product has become more PG and the awareness of the risks associated with wrestling such a style on a consistent basis has become evident.
However, certain individuals are bound to work more snug than the others, and Big E brought up two names. Sheamus, unsurprisingly, was one of them and the other one, to a bit of surprise, was Titus O’Neil. This is what the New Day member had to say:
“Sheamus has a reputation for being a little stiff. I’d say Sheamus and Titus O’Neil. Titus O’Neil can mess you up! You gotta protect yourself with Titus!”
- We reported on Luke Harper missing WWE RAW & SmackDown this week, sparking doubts whether Rowan replacing Harper is a permanent move. However, it isn’t the case, as Harper was reportedly missing in action this week owing to a family issue.
Since the Shield vs Wyatts main event was already booked and Rowan was available to make the booking, the WWE office decided to make the switch from Harper to Rowan unannounced.
- On the recent edition of the Adam Carrola show, WWE Hall of famer Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts was the guest and he mentioned about being a part of a new wrestling promotion starting up in Las Vegas, as a trainer.
Along with Jake, legendary wrestling names such as Terry Funk, Shane Douglas and Tommy Dreamer are also said to be a part of this promotion, where the focus would be on training wrestlers the ‘old-school’ style.
While Douglas was in talks for a long time about starting up with a promotion such as this, it wasn’t until now that something has materialised. Roberts on the other hand, is expected to have a hip surgery soon before relocating to Las Vegas to work with the upcoming promotion.
