Ever since leaving Impact Wrestling a few weeks ago, numerous reports have confirmed that Ethan Carter III is on his way to WWE. He was reportedly spotted at the Performance Center recently, then he was pulled from an independent event scheduled on the same day as the Royal Rumble event. As if that was not enough evidence, Squared Circle Sirens’ Casey Michael recently revealed that the NXT Twitter account just started following Carter. It is unclear if EC3 will begin working on the main roster or in NXT, but several different reports (including one from the Wrestling Observer) have stated that Carter will be officially announced as a WWE roster member very soon.

Before Anthem Sports & Entertainment took TNA Wrestling and renamed it Impact Wrestling, Dixie Carter served as the chairwoman of TNA for several years. Since her departure, she has appeared on Kurt Angle’s WWE 24 documentary on the WWE Network, but a fan in attendance for Ring of Honor’s ‘Music City Excellence’ tapings spotted her at the event. The fan claimed that ROH COO Joe Koff was showing Dixie around the area during the show. Dixie remains a minority stakeholder at the moment, so it is unlikely that she will be sticking around in ROH, but the meeting is still interesting due to rumors suggesting that Impact is currently working on building a relationship with Ring of Honor.

Even more interesting…I saw @ringofhonor’s Joe Koff showing @TNADixie around at tonight’s taping in #Nashville, explaining what they’re doing @davemeltzerWON @thewadekeller

One of the potentially biggest stories that could be taking place over the next few days is the relaunch of the XFL. Vince McMahon’s defunct football league could be on the way back as soon as January 25th, and he has launched his own Alpha Entertainment company in order to do so. Triple H was recently asked about his father in law bringing back the XFL during an interview with ABC News. Triple H commented on the matter by stating. “I don’t think there’s any sense of change. If anybody thinks they’re going to push him out or take this thing, there’s going to be a hell of a fight.” It will be interesting to see what happens with the XFL and what it means as far as McMahon continuing to run WWE is concerned.
