The concept of the Forbidden Door is certainly one of the most engaging things about the world of professional wrestling right now. For a long time, many fans wondered whether AEW and WWE will ever work together as well.
Long time WWE employee Mark Carrano became a huge topic of discussion last year after it was revealed that he was responsible for sending Mickie James back her wrestling gear in a trash bag. Mark Carrano was subsequently fired from his position as a result of his unprofessional and hurtful actions. Mickie James took to Twitter and revealed the entire ordeal as it sparked a lot of controversy on social media. WWE Superstar Lana also sent a bold message to Mickie James previously.
This week’s episode of Friday Night Smackdown featured a huge announcement as it was revealed that Impact Knockouts Champion Mickie James will be taking part in the Women’s Royal Rumble match this year. WWE also acknowledged she is the Impact Knockouts Champion, in a move that most definitely shocked fans all over the world as it marked the first time WWE acknowledged a title from the promotion, also formerly known as TNA.
“Had more than 1 source this weekend, w/o me directly asking, state they believe WWE will try for an “unexpected” forbidden door entrant for the Men’s Royal Rumble. Personally I’m skeptical it happens, but I can confirm WWE is at least open to the idea. Which is exciting enough.”
Former Impact Women’s World Champion Deonna Purazzo has turned down a Royal Rumble debut.
