New WWE Theme Song For Paige Revealed?

We’ve noted how Paige has been training for her return to action for WWE and there’s now speculation on a new theme song for the former Women’s Champion. Jorge Hernandez, manager for singer Shayla, posted a preview for a remixed version of Paige’s theme song and thanked WWE for the opportunity. It’s also possible that the song could be used in the WWE Studios’ movie based on Paige and her wrestling family that comes out in the near future. Shayla appears to be a relatively new singer.

WWE Investing In ESports Company (Cloud9)

ESPN reports that WWE is investing in eSports organization Cloud9, which was formed in 2013. The company recently raised $25 million in Series A financing from WWE, the Beverly Hills Sports Council, MLB veteran Hunter Pence and others.

“We just looked around the space, looked at all the players and did our own evaluation of who we thought would be successful in the long term,” WWE Chief Strategy and Financial Officer George Barrios told ESPN. “We just thought that the Cloud9 team had developed lots of expertise and we’re just really, really impressed with Jack [Etienne, the Cloud9 CEO] and the rest of the staff; how professional they were, how organized and how much infrastructure they had built for a small organization. We thought they were on their way. We looked at a lot of players, and they were the ones we put in the top tier.”

SmackDown Attacks RAW (Video)

Last night on RAW, just as Kurt Angle was about to announce RAW’s men’s Survivor Series team, Shane McMahon’s music hit. Shane came down through the crowd leading a big group of SmackDown Live Superstars, men and women.

Shane said under siege, referring back to what he told Angle earlier in a backstage segment. Angle left the ring and up the ramp to the back and Shane ordered his SmackDown stars to “go get ’em” and SmackDown went to the back and laid waste to every RAW star they came across, then they brought Angle back to the ring. Shane said he wants Angle to bring his gold medal, what’s left of the RAW roster because they’re going to finish what they started. It’s true, it’s damn true.

News On When Roman Reigns And Bray Wyatt Will Be Re-evaluated

As the WWE tries to recover from a tumultuous few days that saw multiple superstars get sick from a viral infection, many are wondering what the timetable is for a return to normalcy.

On Friday, WrestlingInc.com owner Raj Giri broke the news that the WWE was testing RAW superstars for the mumps. Roman Reigns, Bray Wyatt and Bo Dallas were among those infected, and Reigns and Wyatt were removed from TLC due to the illness, causing major changes to Sunday’s pay-per-view. In a response to our report, the WWE released a statement confirming that three superstars were diagnosed with a viral infection. On the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer offered an update for when those superstars could possibly return to action.

Meltzer noted that Reigns has the mumps and said he and the other infected superstars will be re-evaluated next week on Monday. The rest of the locker room got their shots on Thursday to prevent further spreading of the infection, but Meltzer said there is still a fear within the company that more superstars could contract the illness.

WWE had initially tested some talent for viral meningitis, and discovered that the illness is believed to be the mumps. Mumps symptoms usually take 16-18 days to appear and then the infection usually takes several days to a week to disappear. It is unclear how much time is needed to completely recover from an illness like that in order to be deemed fit to compete in the ring. It is also unknown if any SmackDown superstars were tested for the infection or if the virus was solely spread in the RAW locker room.

At TLC on Sunday, Kurt Angle replaced Reigns in the main event and teamed with Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose to defeat the team of Braun Strowman, The Miz, Sheamus and Cesaro, and Kane in a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match. AJ Styles replaced Wyatt in a match against “The Demon” Finn Balor, in what was an instant fan favorite won by Balor.
