Welcome back to another exciting edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's WWE News Roundup. In today's article, we will look at topics around Roman Reigns and LA Knight, among others.

Also, a former champion has disclosed that he's done with the company and has no interest in returning. Let's check it out along with the Monday Night RAW preview!


#1. WWE RAW preview

Fans will witness the fallout from Money in the Bank on the upcoming edition of Monday Night RAW. Seth Rollins won the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match, and he will be present on the red brand to address his victory. Rollins will also have a chance to cash in the contract, as Jey Uso will be in action against Gunther.

While only one match has been announced for the show so far, there will be some big returns as Nikki Bella and John Cena are advertised for RAW. Also, the WWE King and Queen of the Ring tournaments will begin on tonight's show.


#2. Female superstar takes a shot at Roman Reigns

Piper Niven recently took a shot at Roman Reigns after one of the OTC's fans went too far. The Secret Hervice member was criticized by one of Reigns' fans, to which she replied that she would destroy his favorite pro wrestler in a transgender match.

Roman Reigns is currently away from WWE programming after being taken out by Seth Rollins' group. Many expect the OTC to return to prevent Rollins from cashing in his Money in the Bank.


#3. Pitch made for LA Knight to join Seth Rollins' faction

Seth Rollins has established himself as a force to be reckoned with since aligning with Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. The group has wreaked havoc in WWE since its formation, with The Visionary even winning the Money in the Bank Ladder Match.

While there are currently no speculations of the faction adding another member, Jonathan Coachman said that he would like to see LA Knight join Paul Heyman and Co.

"To be honest, we’ve been discussing who could be the fourth member of that group, and if you say the name, LA Knight, I wouldn’t hate it. You’ve got two enforcers already. Why not have a guy who can talk really well, has charisma, and looks great in a suit? So maybe they could have a segment where Seth Ron [Rollins] said, 'Hey you really impressed me in there. What do you think about this?' Or something like that."

LA Knight was one of the participants in the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match. However, he came up short once again, with Rollins taking home the briefcase.


#4. Former champion says he has no interest in returning to WWE

While many stars often dream of returning to WWE even after being released from the company, that is not the case with Enzo Amore. The former Cruiserweight Champion recently said that he was doing well where he was and wouldn't be returning to the global sports entertainment juggernaut.

“I don’t need to do this sh*t again. If God puts it in my, you know, future—like, I didn’t say I would take it. Right now I got this, okay? I work for f****** Fourth Rope, bro. I work for Westside Gunn, okay? I got my s*** straight. Like, my s*** is tight, bro. Like, we doing all right,” Amore said in a chat with Tim Hann Rivera. [From 7:23 to 7:45]

Amore was a part of the Stamford-based promotion for nearly six years. He was released from the company in 2018 and currently wrestles on the independent circuit.
