While in the ring when Jinder said he will talk to his people in Punjabi. He said “At Backlash he will defeat Randy Orton and everyone will fall to his feet and worship him.”

Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns was backstage at Raw on Monday, according to PWInsider, despite not appearing on the show.

WWE.com also did an interview with him where they equated his brother’s death with Braun Strowman beating him up, I guess.

Reigns: “Physically, I’m as beat up as I am emotionally. This has been two of the roughest weeks of my professional career and life. I’ve never experienced a loss this close since it’s my only blood brother, but I’ve also never experienced a beatdown like Braun Strowman gave me.”

Kane

Today, April 26, is Kane’s 50th birthday.

NXT Departure

Andrea D’Marco (real name Andrea Ocampo), who worked as a ring announcer at NXT live events, has “departed” from WWE, according to PWInsider. She signed with NXT in May 2016.

She responded to a fan on Twitter who said “gutted you were released,” so it appears that WWE released her.
