The Wrestling Roundup is here to bring you all the news and rumors you need to know in one place.
Maria Kanellis Pregnancy Update
Monday’s Raw had a very strange segment between Seth Rollins & Becky Lynch and Maria & Mike Kanellis. During the mixed tag match, Maria claimed to be pregnant. She then said her husband Mike was not man enough to get her pregnant, and claimed Becky Lynch was the only “Man” in the ring. The whole weird segment is here:
Wrestling Observer Radio gave some updates on if the pregnancy is kayfabe or real. According to Dave Meltzer (h/t WrestlingInc) Maria is indeed pregnant. After recently re-signing with WWE alongside her husband Mike, Maria told WWE officials of her pregnancy. Maria & Mike already have one child together, Freddie Moon Bennett. She was born in 2018.
Will Ospreay & Seth Rollins Squash Twitter Beef
The Twitter drama that captivated the wrestling world is seemingly closed. Last week, Seth Rollins went on Twitter to proclaim WWE as the best wrestling in the world. It lead to a back and forth with Will Ospreay, the talented NJPW wrestler and winner of the 2019 Best of the Super Juniors champion. Today, Rollins apologized for his earlier tweets.
After a few days to sit on it, I’d like to apologize to @WillOspreay for the tweet I sent his way about comparing bank accounts. It was dumb of me & not in line with my values. The moment I pressed the send button I knew it was trash, but I’m too stubborn for my own good.

I stand firm in my sentiments that @WWE is the best pro wrestling on the planet and that I’m the best of the best doing it right now. After a helluva week of travel, our crew didn’t waver for a second. Top level humans busting their asses for the love of the game.

Ospreay took to Twitter as well to respond.

That seemingly marks the end of wrestling Twitter’s latest beef. It will certainly not be the last.
