Update On Rumors Of SmackDown Stars Having Backstage Heat

You never know who might return to WWE and last year Hit Row ended up making their way back to the company. Since returning to WWE the members of Hit Row haven’t really been featured regularly and they’re often on the losing end of the matches that they compete in.

It was recently reported that WWE doesn’t have any creative plans for Hit Row beyond what they’ve been doing, but it seems that there are no issues with the group as far as WWE management is concerned.

Fightful Select reports that despite there being no significant creative plans for Hit Row there’s nothing out of the ordinary regarding how the group is viewed by WWE management. A source near WWE creative noted that acts like Hit Row were brought back to add depth to the roster in order to prevent shows from becoming rematch-heavy.

Originally the members of Hit Row were released from WWE in November of 2021. Swerve Strickland made his way to All Elite Wrestling a few months after the release while B-Fab, Top Dolla and Ashante “Thee” Adonis were all brought back in August of 2022.
