The Tampa Bay Lightning will get a big boost to their lineup in their first game since the Olympic break.

Forward Brayden Point will return to the ice for Wednesday’s game against the Toronto Maple Leafs (Sportsnet, Sportsnet+, 7:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. PT), the team announced.

Point missed the team’s past 11 games prior to the break with a lower-body injury he suffered on Jan. 12 against the Philadelphia Flyers.

The injury also forced Point to miss representing Canada at the Winter Olympics after he was named to the initial roster. He was replaced by Carolina Hurricanes forward Seth Jarvis.

A popular WWE Superstar made a massive claim about his real-life relationship. He compared his relationship to that of Seth Rollins & Becky Lynch and CM Punk & AJ Lee.

The star in question is former WWE NXT Champion Trick Williams. He is engaged to fellow SmackDown star Lash Legend. The couple recently made an appearance on Wake Up Barstool.

The host asked the duo what it would take for them to be the number one power couple in professional wrestling, with the likes of Seth Rollins & Becky Lynch and CM Punk & AJ Lee already being there. Trick Williams came up with a cheeky response claiming that he and Lash Legend were like an upgraded version of the other WWE couples.

“Shout out to [CM] Punk, AJ [Lee], Seth [Rollins], Becky [Lynch]. But you ever put your phone down on the nightstand, and that thing updates overnight, and then you pull it out the next day, and you’re like, ‘Whoa, I didn’t know that my phone could do all this. Look at all these upgrades. Wow, this phone is better today than it was yesterday.’ That’s what happens when you get Trick and Lash,” Williams said.

WWE Superstar Trick Williams recalled the time Lash Legend friend-zoned him

During a recent interview with SPORTbible, Trick Williams opened up about a hilarious conversation he had with Lash Legend back in the day when they were not dating.

The Anointed One recalled how he got nervous while approaching Lash Legend and forgot what he had planned to say to her. However, he still told her that they could be together. Williams added how Legend turned him down and friend-zoned him instead.

“So, I see her. She’s getting out of her Mercedes-Benz and everything. So I walk up and say, I don’t know what happens, like, as soon as I got to her, I had, like, this great promo in my head that I was gonna drop on her, but as soon as the moment of truth happened, like, no words was coming out. I was like, ‘So, yo Lash, I don’t know if everybody else saying it, but you and me together good.’ And then she friend-zoned me so quick. She was like, ‘Yeah, I heard people saying that, but nah you my homie for real,’” Williams said.

Both Trick Williams and Lash Legend have already impressed fans with their impressive performances on WWE’s main roster. It will be interesting to see what the future holds for the beloved wrestling couple.
