— According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE continues to aggressively target a lot of talent to sign and they are “flagrantly tampering” with wrestlers who are under contract to other promotions. As much as some people claim that “Vince McMahon likes competition”, the truth of the matter is that WWE would like to eliminate any competitors in the industry.
— As noted before, WWE had a storyline in place to have Natalya and Ronda Rousey break-up, but plans were changed when Jim Neidhart passed away making it an inopportune time to turn Natalya. However, it appears enough time has elapsed where WWE may be considering re-aligning the two short-term with an eventual heel turn by Nattie to follow, according to Observer Radio.
