Did WWE bench Omos after a successful stint in Pro Wrestling NOAH?
Back in January, Omos had a very promising month as a member of the Pro Wrestling NOAH roster. He even captured the GHC Tag Team Titles with Jack Morris.

However, after a successful title defense on January 25, Omos got on the microphone and announced that he was heading back to WWE and handed his title over to Daga. Despite this, Omos hasn't been seen on WWE programming since.
As a matter of fact, Omos hasn't competed inside a WWE ring since last April. Leaving him seemingly benched by the company without any rhyme or reason. So what's going on with the big man?
According to Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp (via Fightful Select), Omos isn't injured and is ready to work and perform for the company when called upon. Despite that, he hasn't been brought up recently in any creative discussions.
A source from NOAH whom Sapp spoke with said Omos made a good impression there, and they believe the company would be happy to have him back if the opportunity arose.

Seth Rollins comes up with a new nickname for Jacob Fatu
Tonight's (June 6) episode of SmackDown kicked off with Seth Rollins cutting a promo in the ring (accompanied by Bronson Reed, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman) where he said he will take full control of WWE when he wins the Money in the Bank ladder match this weekend. Rollins spent some time early on addressing Roman Reigns' latest absence from WWE, perhaps foreshadowing an imminent return for the OTC. But the meat of the segment involved Solo Sikoa, JC Mateo, and Jacob Fatu coming out to confront Seth and his crew after Rollins said nobody can stand up to them. Advertisement Solo picked apart Seth's new stable as Bloodline wannabes, going so far as to say Bronson Reed must be their Honorary Uce. Rollins fired back by leaning into the current tension between Solo and Jacob. He wondered why Jacob was so quiet, and said maybe his 'Samoan Werewolf' nickname should be replaced by a more accurate one: 'Solo's bitch.' Those are fightin' words, and it quickly led to another staredown between Fatu and Breakker. Seth pulled Bron out of there before things could escalate, but you know that's a major match that's happening sometime down the line.

Ricky Saints Confirms Current NXT Star Is Also Working As A Coach In WWE
Ricky Saints is learning quite a bit in NXT. WrestleZone Managing Editor Bill Pritchard spoke with Saints at WrestleMania Media Day about his journey to NXT. Saints may be new to WWE. However, he has more than a decade of experience in the wrestling business, including stops in the NWA and AEW. When asked if there's a match that gives WWE fans a good idea of who he is as a performer, he had two in mind. Advertisement 'Maybe the one in NXT would be when I won the [NXT North American] title [from Shawn Spears in April 2025]. That'd be a top one,' Saints said. 'Anything beyond that, me versus Bryan Danielson for sure.' Saints, as Ricky Starks, competed in two singles matches against Bryan Danielson in AEW. They first squared off in a No Disqualification Strap Match at All Out 2023, and later had a brutal Texas Death Match on the September 23, 2023, episode of AEW Collision. Ricky Saints confirms Shawn Spears is coaching in NXT Ricky Saints was also asked if there was anyone in WWE that became a positive influence that he perhaps wasn't expecting to learn from. Saints disagreed with the sentiment and said everyone he's worked with has taught him a lot, including Shawn Spears. Advertisement 'No, because I feel like that discredits them,' Saints explained. 'Every person that has come to me and talked to me — Terry Taylor, Fit Finlay, Matt Bloom — have been nothing but a wealth of knowledge. Shawn Spears also is a coach there and is very knowledgeable once you listen. For all his faults, he does have some good knowledge as well.' Saints agreed that Spears might be underappreciated by some. Fans have gotten a better look at what Spears offers in his return to NXT. Spears continues to wrestle in NXT too, as a member of The Culling stable. His last match was a six-man tag team match at WWE Battleground 2025.

Back in the day, I had done an interview, which I remember talking to Naomi about this a long, long time ago. I was like, it'd be really cool to get, cause I had known her prior for a while. 'So it was like, to get into, like, a thing with her. Like, hopefully we can get into something and WWE. Like, my brain was, I need to get to WWE any way possible. She's one of the top girls. I want to get in the ring with her she's dope, I want to do this. She was cool with it. People use that clip as, like, oh, my God, they've had beef for forever, blah, blah, blah, and I'm like, I love that I convinced you all of that. I love that for me. 'But no none of us have ever had any beef. It's so funny to me that I'm the common denominator between all of the beef, apparently. I'm just like, well. She trains with my cousin. Like, what? They're trying to find any little thing. Like, if I genuinely hated somebody, do you think I'd be cool with that?'
