Coming out of this week's edition of Monday Night RAW, there were reportedly some negative feelings backstage over how the show was executed while there are rumors that Triple H held a meeting with the talent to discuss the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania 31 plans.
According to Wrestlingheadlines.com, the entire script for RAW was re-written at 3 p.m. ET on Monday and a lot of people felt that Vince McMahon had a lot to do with the new version of the show.
There is a belief backstage that the promos cut by Triple H and Stephanie McMahon were crafted by Vince McMahon in his vision and that it wasn't the new voice of Triple H and Stephanie.
Many people were also very unhappy with the show overall, including the way Dolph Ziggler, Ryback and Erick Rowan were "fired" to end it. There is a feeling that all three of the WWE Superstars were left in a bad spot, including Ziggler who had built up a lot of momentum lately.
Reddit user MetsFan4Ever, who has broken factual WWE stories in the past and claims to be a WWE insider, revealed that Triple H had a talent meeting with the Superstars on Monday in Texas to discuss the plans for the future, according to Wrestlingheadlines.com.
It has been expected that Roman Reigns is set for his huge push at WrestleMania 31 and he will win the Royal Rumble on Jan. 25 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia before going on to dethrone WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar at the "Show of Shows."
While Reigns has been rumored to win the bout for several months, Daniel Bryan's return has reportedly led to a locker room divide over who should get the nod.
According to MetsFan4Ever, Triple H held a talent meeting prior to RAW and told the Superstars that the plans for the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania 31 were still up in the air and nothing was set in stone.
Triple H said it wasn't certain who would win the Rumble Match and main event the biggest show of the year and that all talents will be evaluated over the next couple of weeks before a decision is made.
While as always, internet rumors should be taken lightly, Cody Rhodes who tweets out of his Stardust character on @PrinceCGR denied these claims:
I keep hearing about "talent meetings"... Those are near impossible to hold and I haven't seen one in over a year.

MetsFan4Ever then responded on Reddit to Rhodes' claims that the meeting was false.
"Come on Cody. You're better than that," the user wrote per Wrestlingheadlines.com. "You know damn well that talent meetings are not impossible to hold. In my time I witnessed many of them. Both in the arena and in the locker room. In fact there was one time where you all had to watch the WWE Film 'The Day.' That wasn't impossible to get you all together to watch before Raw, was it?"
It remains to be seen what the WWE will do going forward, but there are reports of low morale and a divide in the locker room heading into the most important season of the year.
