Part of watching WWE's weekly shows are the thrill of speculating future outcomes or events. Some scour the worldwide web's rumor mills for fun, while others imagine their own wrestling scenarios for the sake of creativity.

This week, highlights - and lowlights - feature comebacks, flaks, and of course, Sting.

As always, fans should take all of these with a grain of salt.

The Return... or lack thereof?

Two months after Brock Lesnar brutalized his ankle using the steel ring step, followed by a Rollins attack, Kane is anticipated to be back between the ropes next week. According to PW Insider, The Devil's Favorite Demon-slash-Director of Operations looks to be present at WWE tapings, though it's still unclear whether he'll grace the television broadcast.

As continuously said by some wrestling insiders, Hulk Hogan's WWE release is still a foregone conclusion. Maybe he'll still continue doing public apology rounds on different media platforms.

Pants on Fire

Following an impactful appearance at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn - when she managed The Vaudevillains as they snag the tag team titles from Blake and Murphy - it seems like Blue Pants is on the receiving end of a lot of heat from colleagues, backstage.

Sources say that other NXT Superstars are not happy about Blue Pants' arrival for a couple of reasons:

First is the fact that she isn't under an NXT deal, which means that Blue Pants gets 100-percent of the profits from her merchandises.

Second, Blue Pants, reportedly, makes more money compared to her NXT counterparts because she's been able to increase her booking fees in the independent circuit.

Sting Fever Continues

Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Sting looks to be headed to Stone Cold Steve Austin's podcast this October. This may just make up for his absence on next week's WWE Monday Night Raw in Baltimore, Maryland.
