As noted, Rusev is out with either a broken foot or ankle, and he has been removed from all WWE events through July.

The injury took place when he took a bump over the top ropes in a Smackdown match against Ryback.

What is the Likelihood of AJ Styles Signing With WWE?

As noted, WWE has changed its tune regarding former TNA Champion AJ Styles and is interested in signing him, although nothing is likely to happen on that front as Styles is under contract with New Japan until the end of the year.

Tyler Breeze noted during an appearance on AfterBuzz TV that his Tyler Breeze character was inspired by Ben Stiller’s character in the movie “Dodgeball.” Breeze also credited Xavier Woods.
