Report: WWE Grooming Three Talents To Be Their Future Headliners
WWE already knows who they want their headliners to be at some point in the future. The passing of the torch is something that's been a focal point of professional wrestling for the last several decades. As popular as WWE is right now, they understand people like Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and Becky Lynch can't be on top forever. Eventually, these names will move on from the company and will be seen on a much more limited basis. If you want to get technical, it feels like Reigns is already in that transition period. Luckily, WWE is planning for the future and is already in the process of grooming who they want to be their future headliners of the company. According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the company is currently grooming Bron Breakker, Jacob Fatu, and Rhea Ripley to interact with the company's current headliners with the idea that they will eventually be in those positions themselves. Stay tuned to WrestleZone for more information as it becomes available. READ MORE: TKO Makes Major Change To WWE Severance Packages, Hurts Company Morale What do you make of this report?

Report: John Cena's Final Scheduled WWE Opponent Revealed
Who will John Cena face in his final WWE match? Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena doesn't have many appearances left on his retirement tour. With this career winding down in the months ahead, it won't be long until we reach December, where Cena will have his final wrestling match. Several potential names have been brought up over the past year about who Cena's final opponent might be. But a new report has shed light on who Cena's final opponent is scheduled to be. According to WRKD Wrestling, Gunther is currently scheduled to be Cena's final opponent. Tweeting out the following message following Saturday Night's Main Event this evening: 'Goldberg isn't the last person that Gunther hopes to retire. Gunther is currently planned as John Cena's final opponent,' WRKD Wrestling said in a post. Reports have suggested that Cena's final match will take place in Boston. This would be very similar to Goldberg's final match taking place tonight in Atlanta. The common thread of Gunther being the one to retire both men is certainly an interesting angle. We'll see how this plays out in the months ahead. Stay tuned to WrestleZone for more information as it becomes available.

Who Came Up With Roman Reigns' New ‘OTC1' Nickname?
Roman Reigns made his WWE return last night with a twist on his old nickname.

Many fans noticed that The Tribal Chief was sporting a new shirt with the letters 'OTC1' on it.

WWE Confirms Paul Heyman's New Nickname
It looks like Paul Heyman's run as 'The Wiseman' is officially over as the WWE Hall of Famer kicks off a new chapter in his illustrious career. Heyman is now officially going by his new nickname, 'The Oracle,' as announced on WWE RAW last night. The company filed to trademark the nickname last week. Heyman was first addressed as 'The Oracle' by Seth Rollins on the final RAW broadcast of June. He was called The Wiseman during the opening promo this week, but it looks like that name is being phased out. Advertisement For those unaware, Paul Heyman aligned with Seth Rollins during the closing moments of the triple threat match at WrestleMania 41 Night 1. The Wiseman betrayed both CM Punk and Roman Reigns before handing over the chair to Rollins to finish the job. Paul Heyman watched as LA Knight took out Seth Rollins on WWE RAW Paul Heyman accompanied Seth Rollins for the main event match with Penta last night on WWE RAW. Rollins picked up the win after a solid back-and-forth match with Penta. However, Rollins' celebration was cut short after LA Knight planted The Visionary with a B.F.T. Rollins versus Knight is set for this Saturday Night's Main Event this weekend. Elsewhere on the card, Gunther will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Goldberg in another match featuring superstars from Monday Night RAW.
