– The War Raiders duo of Erik and Ivar are now listed internally in WWE as a babyface tag-team. The former duo known as The Viking Raiders were long-considered a heel tandem.
– In similar news, WWE has changed The New Day duo of Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods from the babyface side of things to the heel side internally. This is obviously following the two having a big heel turn segment on Big E. during The New Day 10th Anniversary Celebration on the December 2 episode of WWE Raw.
– As noted, following Katana Chance’s victory over Alba Fyre on the December 4 episode of WWE Speed on X to advance to the quarterfinals of the ongoing WWE Speed Women’s No. 1 Contender Tournament, Michin vs. Ivy Nile will take place on the December 11 episode to determine her opponent in the quarterfinals. On the December 18 episode of WWE Speed on X, Natalya vs. Zelina Vega in the first of two quarterfinal matches in the aforementioned tourney will take place.
