For weeks, there have been rumors that Christian Cage would be making his WWE return at the Royal Rumble.
After speaking with a source who is currently backstage at the Joe Louis Arena, there is no sign of Christian. The rest of the WWE crew has been at the arena for hours already and unless he’s hiding under the ring or at an undisclosed location, his return may not occur tonight.
That said, there is a rumor going around that Matt Hardy will turn heel on his brother Jeff tonight. If that does happen, expect for Matt to be the person (or one of the people) behind the ongoing “who attacked Jeff Hardy” storyline. I EXCLUSIVELY reported this about a month ago on WZR Radio but I was never able to confirm it.
After the Survivor Series beatdown, the roadside hit-and-run and last week’s pyro accident on SmackDown, it looks like WWE could be building towards a Matt Hardy vs. Jeff Hardy showdown at Wrestlemania XXV.
I can also confirm to you that the Royal Rumble ‘under-card’ was completely re-written as of last Thursday. They edited SD! heavily and had the announcers re-do a ton of stuff involving Triple H.
We’ll have more on this story and the road to WrestleMania later tonight!!
