Possible Reason For WWE Worlds Collide Change, Rhea Ripley Mocks Toni Storm Support, Carmella Praise

By Marc Middleton

- As Raj noted earlier, WWE NXT Superstar Humberto Carrillo (Ultimo Ninja) was removed from the announcement on the "Worlds Collide" tournament that will take place at Royal Rumble Axxess later this month. WWE removed Carrillo within two hours of making the original announcement, which had him listed as a WWE 205 Live Superstar. The announcement now says that a Superstar to be named will get the final 205 Live roster spot in the tournament.

The speculation is that Carrillo was removed because he will be making his 205 Live debut on next Wednesday's show. As noted, that show will feature WWE Cruiserweight Champion Buddy Murphy issuing a non-title open challenge. It's believed that Carrillo may answer that open challenge, making his official 205 Live debut.
