The latest round of WWE rumors deals with Brock Lesnar, WrestleMania 31, Samoa Joe, Sami Zayn, Adrian Neville, Finn Balor, and Charlotte, so let's get right to it. As always, these are just rumors, so please treat them as such.
Those within WWE are apparently quite confident the company can re-sign Brock Lesnar, the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, and prevent him from leaving the company to go to UFC, Bellator, or some other mixed martial arts promotion. If so, then this would affect the booking going forward through WrestleMania 31 and beyond.
Triple H is also reportedly interested in Samoa Joe, who recently left TNA. The thought process is apparently that Samoa Joe could be a major factor in NXT right away. Doubts are circulating, however, that he could ever be a major player in WWE because Vince McMahon may not be as sold on him. Samoe Joe could also choose to just work the independent circuit because it would be more lucrative and beneficial to him than what NXT would offer.
Reports also say the next round of NXT call ups to the main roster would likely happen just after WrestleMania 31. The top candidates are Sami Zayn, Adrian Neville, Finn Balor, and Charlotte. Zayn just lost the NXT Championship to Kevin Owens at NXT Takeover: Rival just two months after winning the belt from Neville. The Man Who Gravity Forgot also lost in the finals of the No. 1 Contender tournament to Balor at that live special. Charlotte lost her NXT Women's Championship to Sasha Banks, while Balor is currently the No. 1 Contender to Owens' title.
