Steve-O says he was originally set to make an appearance at the 2022 WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view event. Johnny Knoxville appeared in the 2022 men’s Royal Rumble match and was eliminated by Sami Zayn, which led to a match between the two at WrestleMania 38.
During the latest edition of his “Steve-O’s Wild Ride” podcast, the Jackass star revealed that he came down with COVID-19 and wasn’t able to appear. He said,
“I ended up testing positive for COVID and was unable to participate in the Royal Rumble. I was going to be a henchman kind of thing. It was basically walking Knoxville out to the ring.”
AJ Styles lost to LA Knight at WrestleMania 40 (Night Two), and he recently spoke with Sportskeeda to discuss what’s next for him. He said,
“We’ll see. I’m not exactly sure what’s in the cards for me, but a championship maybe.”
And finally, Fit Finlay took to Twitter today to hype up NXT’s Uriah Conners. Connors (Brogan Finlay) will be appearing on tonight’s episode of NXT Level Up. The proud father wrote,
