WWE: Max Durpi Update, New White Rabbit Teaser, New Creative Hiring

Max Durpi Status Update

As noted before, this past Friday’s SmackDown show in Winnipeg, Canada featured several backstage segments involving the Maximum Male Models attempting to break the world record for longest pose held. The final segment featured Max Durpri being very frustrated with the group over his issues with their goofing off antics in recent weeks and left the group as a result.

PWInsider’s Mike Johnson reported that his sources stated that WWE officials recently gave Dupri a new ring name change based on a recent internal roster list. Durpri reportedly will now be going under his former NXT ring name of LA Knight going forward in the company.

In regards to the Maximum Male Models, Johnson reported that WWE officials currently have plans for the group to continue with Maxxine Durpri as its leader.


New White Rabbit Cryptic Teaser Aired During Monday’s RAW Show

As noted before, WWE has recently been airing cryptic teases for a mysterious “White Rabbit” character at their recent television and house shows. These teases are currently rumored to be for Bray Wyatt’s return to the company, which could take place as early as this Saturday’s Extreme Rules 2022 event.

Monday’s WWE RAW show featured a new White Rabbit cryptic QR code teaser that aired during a backstage segment involving Candice LeRae, Bianca Belair, Asuka, and Alexa Bliss.

This new teaser featured a painting of Samson and Delilah from the bible. Fightful’s Skylar Russell reported that this image is similar to a photo Bray Wyatt tweeted the day after Alexa Bliss had turned against The Fiend at WrestleMania 37 in 2001.

This teaser also included the partial coordinates for the Wells Fargo Center, which is the host venue for this Saturday’s Extreme Rules 2022 event in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

This teaser also included a binary code that spells out “Gacy” and a message of ” Before me things created were none, save things. Eternal, and eternal I endure” which is written in the same language as the Predator film series and referenced in past Firefly Fun House segments in WWE.


New WWE Creative Writer Hiring

WWE reportedly recently hired Rob Fee to a high-level executive position in the company, according to Fightful Select.

It was reported that their sources stated that Fee was recently hired to become the Director of Longterm Creative for the company.

Prior to his hiring, Fee reportedly had once pitched a The Field-related film to WWE, which was dropped following Bray Wyatt’s departure from the company. Fee reportedly has also been involved with the production of the QR coded messages for the mystery “White Rabbit” character in recent weeks.

Prior to his hiring, Fee had worked for Marvel as a horror writer for the company and had been the head writer for several Disney shows.
