NXT Star Works Smackdown
NXT Superstar Tyler Breeze wrestled a dark match at tonight’s WWE Smackdown and Main Event television taping, losing to Fandango. Breeze will be in action in a #1 contender’s match at NXT Takeover next week, originally scheduled to face Finn Balor and Hideo Itami in triple threat action. We are still awaiting news on Itami’s status following a recent injury.
Goldust Post-Surgery Update
Goldust posted the following post-surgery photo on Twitter earlier today. As we’ve been reported, the WWE Superstar had work down on his shoulder, and is expected to be out of action for 2-4 months. It’s unknown what the company’s plans are for him, if any at all, once he has been cleared to compete.
Yep, #BenjaminButton fixed. Thanks for all your prayers pic.twitter.com/byo1NZOJGP

There have been rumors for quite some time that Goldust’s time as a full-time competitor has come to an end, following the 46-year-old veteran’s successful tag team run with brother Cody Rhodes (aka Stardust). Should his in-ring career come to an end, it’s likely WWE would like to keep him on in a backstage role.
