A-Train To Return To WWE As ‘Lord Tensai’

20 March 2012 9:34 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

Despite Matt Bloom denying the reports on twitter, several sources are reporting that the “Lord Tensai” teaser that aired during Monday Night Raw last night will eventually be revealed as Bloom’s return to the company.

Bloom, who wrestled under the gimmicks Prince Albert, Albert and A-Train in the WWE between 1999 and 2004, recently signed a contract to return to the WWE after WrestleMania 28.

His gimmick upon return will be as a new henchman for John Laurinaitis and that he will be “pushed right to the top”, according to F4WOnline.com. And from the looks of things Albert will be pushed with a reference to his time in Japan (where he has wrestled as ‘Giant Bernard’) with the Lord Tensai promo clearly referring to his time in Asia and seemingly suggesting his new ring name will be ‘Lord Tensai”.

Jr Says The Undertaker vs John Cena After WWE WrestleMania 28 Is Likely

19 March 2012 6:55 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has filed his latest blog on his official website jrsbarbq.com and has revealed that a John Cena vs The Undertaker match after WWE WrestleMania 28 is likely.

There are some in the WWE who believe that The Undertaker’s forthcoming Hell in a Cell match at WrestleMania against Triple H will be Taker’s retirement farewell at the company and an awful lot of fans believe this too, though Jr seems to suggest that “The Dead Man” has more life left in him yet.

When asked who he would like to see in Taker’s last match, Jr replied with;

“Depends on when it will be and who’s hot. I don’t see that happening for a while but a Cena vs. Undertaker bout down the road is likely.”

Could a John Cena vs The Undertaker match headline WrestleMania 29? Interesting to consider, no? »

However, four WWE sources have claimed in the past week that Bloom is retuning to the company and that talks have been happening for the past two months. Indeed, several WWE performers were talking about Albert’s pending return at the live event in Montreal, Quebec, Canada after being informed by management of Bloom’s return.

Sources suggest Bloom is to get a “big push” when he returns to WWE programming next month as »
