WWE Holds Dark Match During Bobby Lashley Interview
May 08, 2018 (03:30) [ Indexed from WrestlingNewsWorld ]
During a televised and pre-recordedBobby Lashley interview conducted byRenee Young, fans in the audience were instead treated to something else: a squash match in whichAuthors of Pain defeated two local talents. The interview was not well-received as Lashley came across as cheesy and the whole thing was seen as very antithetical to his character. This may have been a way for WWE to offset any negative crowd reaction to the promo as they may have known that it would not be received well especially so soon after the ultra-negative crowd reactions they got at last night'sBacklash.

May 06, 2018 (16:00) [ Indexed from WrestlingNewsWorld ]
This is not 100% confirmed but afterJerry Lawler hinted on his very own podcast that the female superstars would be paid forThe Greatest Royal Rumble despite being banned to compete due to the conservative government of Saudi Arabia, it appears that WWE did just that.
