<p>Ric Flair shared an update on his Instagram account two days ago to reveal that he was set to undergo surgery, whilst sharing a graphic image of his stomach. The former World Champion asked for prayers and noted that it was &#8220;all fragile.&#8221;</p>



<p>He has since updated his Instagram to thank everyone for keeping him in their prayers and noted that he would be able to overcome his recent health issues. </p>



<p>Flair has had some major health problems in the past and at one point was even put into an induced coma for several days. It seems that the 76-year-old is going through a run of bad health again, but is positive that it&#8217;s something he can fight through. </p>

Ric Flair Shares Heartwarming Message Following Surgery Update


<p>Roman Reigns has been absent from WWE since the RAW After WrestleMania when he was speared by Bron Breakker. The Tribal Chief has unfinished business with Seth Rollins&#8217; new stable, but it seems that there is a personal reason why Roman Reigns is yet to return to WWE. </p>



<p>According to<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3orj_G8BuV8"> WrestleVotes </a>on their recent podcast, Reigns has recently welcomed his sixth child. </p>



<p><em>“By the way, congratulations to Roman Reigns — he just had another baby. Good stuff there</em>.&#8221;</p>



<p>Reigns already has Joelle and two sets of twins with his wife, Galina, but the couple has now changed their tally to six. </p>


Roman Reigns Welcomes Sixth Child Amid WWE Hiatus


<p>This week&#8217;s episode of SmackDown was pre-recorded so that WWE Superstars were allowed to have July 4 off to celebrate with their families. </p>



<p>The show was pre-taped last night following RAW, and there were several surprising returns and angles that set up Evolution on July 13. Triple H would have been aware that one of these surprises was Trish Stratus, but he shared the poster for Evolution earlier today and gave away the fact that the former Women&#8217;s Champion is making her return for the show. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



<p>Trish Stratus and Nikki Bella are the only WWE legends who made the poster, but it&#8217;s unclear who Nikki Bella will now face following Liv Morgan&#8217;s injury. </p>


Triple H Ruins Major WWE Return Ahead of SmackDown


<p>Goldberg returns to WWE for one final match on July 12 in Atlanta, Georgia, for Saturday Night&#8217;s Main Event, where he takes on Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship. It seems that the WCW legend has had quite a struggle to get into shape for the show, something he was recently able to publicly reveal. </p>



<p>Ahead of the match, the former World Champion spoke to <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/33vdLIGiwz1Bu8racwZLaD?si=d91c977bcfb34830&amp;nd=1&amp;dlsi=cabe653b132c4e72" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">CarCast,</a> where he noted that he wouldn&#8217;t have been able to do this if he hadn&#8217;t been able to have stem cell treatment.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>“Every second ticks by and I’m closer and closer. I’ve worked my ass off since January, actually since February because I planned it out. I did the stem cells. I knew I had a number of weeks off. Let’s be perfectly honest, if BioXcellerator didn’t hook me up with the stem cells, I don’t think I’d be able to be doing this.”</p>
</blockquote>


Goldberg Reveals That He Needed Stem Cells to be Able to Make WWE Comeback


<p>Chad Gable appeared on the June 30 episode of WWE RAW, as Adam Pearce announced that he would need shoulder surgery. El Grande Americano was then seemingly taken over by Ludwig Kaiser, whilst Gable said his goodbyes to American Made. </p>



<p>Following the show, Gable has now taken to Instagram to share a message following successful surgery, claiming that he will be back sooner than you can say gracias. </p>



<p>Gable is expected to remain sidelined for the rest of 2025, but American Made appear to have RAW plans in his absence. </p>

Chad Gable Undergoes Successful Shoulder Surgery


<p>WWE Evolution 2025 may feature a surprising alliance as bitter rivals Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair are reportedly set to team up for a high-profile Women’s Tag Team match.</p>



<p> According to <em>BodySlam.net</em>, the two former champions will represent SmackDown at the all-women’s premium live event on July 13 in Atlanta. Though not officially confirmed, WWE is expected to announce the pairing soon as part of its effort to stack the Evolution 2 card with major star power and “dream match potential.” </p>



<p>Bliss and Flair’s unexpected union could add serious intrigue to an already anticipated show.</p>


Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair Reportedly Set to Form Alliance for WWE Evolution 2


<p>Former Divas Champion Paige has addressed rumors of a WWE return, confirming that no discussions have taken place.</p>



<p>Speaking to the <em>Orlando Sentinel</em>, Paige said she still loves WWE but hasn’t had any conversations about coming back. Fan speculation has ramped up with Evolution 2 approaching on July 13, but Paige dismissed the buzz, noting she gets tagged in return rumors constantly.</p>



<p>Since her AEW exit earlier in 2025, Paige (real name &#8211; Saraya) has remained out of the ring and is currently focused on personal wellness and exploring life beyond wrestling.</p>


Paige Clarifies WWE Status Amid Return Speculation


<p>WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash has firmly dismissed speculation about a potential in-ring return. </p>



<p>Speaking on the latest episode of <a href="https://youtu.be/uUUGZx0sod4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast</a>, the 65-year-old declared, “Don’t f–king worry,” making it clear he has no desire to revisit wrestling. Known for his runs as Diesel in WWE and a founding nWo member in WCW, Nash has become a frequent target of nostalgia-driven fan theories. </p>



<p>Now fully focused on podcasting and personal appearances, Nash emphasized that his wrestling legacy is complete and he has no plans to step back between the ropes. His statement decisively ends any lingering return rumors.</p>


Kevin Nash Shuts Down Return Rumors, Confirms He’s Done Wrestling


<p>Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis were on WWE RAW this week to announce that there would be a huge stakes match at Evolution 2 next weekend, with the winner going on to face a Women&#8217;s Champion of their choice at Clash in Paris. </p>



<p>The Women&#8217;s number one contenders battle royal doesn&#8217;t appear to have a number limit and could include some returning legends as well as several underutilized female wrestlers.</p>



<p>Ivy Nile and Stephanie Vaquer already made it clear that they wanted to be a part of the match this week on RAW. </p>

Women’s No.1 Contenders Battle Royal Announced for WWE Evolution 2


<p>LA Knight invaded WWE RAW on June 30 to take out Seth Rollins, and after their recent issues, WWE decided to finally allow the two men to step in the ring.</p>



<p>LA Knight vs Seth Rollins was officially added to Saturday Night&#8217;s Main Event on July 12, becoming the second match on the card after Goldberg vs Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship. </p>



<p>CM Punk was clearly upset that LA Knight had been handed the match after Seth Rollins cost him the WWE Championship at Night of Champions and felt he had a legitimate claim for a match. </p>
