WWE Offers Deal To Ric Flair, Has Daniel Bryan Peaked?

There has been a lot of talk within WWE about where Daniel Bryan will be in the next few months. Some higher-ups feel that Bryan isn’t over, it’s the “yes!” chant that is over. They feel that Bryan peaked at WrestleMania XXX with the WWE World Heavyweight Title win.
It’s said that a lot of top guys argue with officials about how they’re booked or portrayed but Bryan doesn’t. There’s not a lot of ego with how Bryan carries himself backstage and in how he deals with creative.

There are many people waiting to see if Bryan cools off and gets moved out of his current position or if he gets hotter and stays there.

WWE reportedly has an offer on the table for Ric Flair to come back on a much more regular basis but he has to “dot his I’s, cross his T’s and get his house in order.” It’s not clear what exactly that refers to but it could mean that Flair needs to tie up some loose ends in his personal life before going back on the road with WWE.

It was said that if Flair gets his stuff in order, don’t be surprised if he’s more involved with guys like Triple H and Randy Orton going forward.

Batista Turns Down Proposed PPV Match; Finishing Up This Weekend

As noted, Batista isn’t booked for any WWE shows after tomorrow’s Extreme Rules pay-per-view. His last night for the time being is scheduled to be the pay-per-view or RAW on Monday night.

We knew that Batista would be taking some time off to promote Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy but nobody expected it to come this quick. Word is that WWE wanted to do Batista vs. Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Heavyweight Title at June’s Payback pay-per-view but Batista turned it down. Batista felt that him losing to someone smaller than him, after he tapped out to him at WrestleMania XXX and right before he’s going to appear in a big summer blockbuster movie, wouldn’t be a good fit for him and would not be a good way for fans to remember him until he returns again.

The plan was for Batista to work through Payback and then take some time off but since he turned it down, he’s finishing up early because it was said that WWE has nothing else for him. No word yet on what this means for Evolution. Batista is still expected back for SummerSlam.
