Remember that "weird place" I mentioned WWE being in? Well the root cause of that is they always have a bigger eye on the next show than the current one, and nowhere is that better illustrated in this rumour from Sportskeeda. Quick note for any aspiring journalists reading: that's called a narrative thread. Get on my level.

Yes, with Survivor Series on the horizon WWE want to start getting all their pieces in place for that. Despite the temptation to sell it as another Raw vs. SmackDown affair, talk is they're considering doing a battle for control of Raw between Baron Corbin and the returning Kurt Angle.

On team Kurt will be himself, The Shield, and one other. For Corbin, himself, the Dogs of War (if indeed we're calling them that) and also one other. One of those mystery two opponents will likely be Finn Bálor, and he'll ingratiate himself with his future teammates by saving them after a run-in costs them their shot at the tag titles. That sets him up as a member of the Hounds of Justice for the next few weeks. Truly, truly bizarre that one.

Rumour rating: If you had those abs, would you wear a flak jacket?
