Both shows are expected to have seven matches. We don't know exactly what day each match is going to be on, but here's what the current plan is:</p><p> </p><p> For RAW:</p><p> -Roman Reigns vs Big E (Night Two) and Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre (Night One), both for the WWE Universal/WWE Championships</p><p> -Becky Lynch vs Bianca Belair for the RAW Women's Championship</p><p> -Randy Orton vs Riddle</p><p> -Brock Lesnar vs Kevin Owens or Seth Rollins (maybe even both, hasn't been finalized)</p><p> -Edge vs Bobby Lashley</p><p> -Damien Priest vs Pete Dunne for the United States Championship</p><p> </p><p> For Smackdown:</p><p> -Drew McIntyre and a partner tbd (current two guesses are either Goldberg or John Cena) vs The Usos (Night Two)</p><p> -Charlotte Flair vs Raquel Gonzalez vs Bayley (who hasn't officially returned yet) for the Smackdown Women's Championship</p><p> -Sasha Banks vs Lita</p><p> -The New Day vs Sami Zayn & Mustafa Ali for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship</p><p> -Shinsuke Nakamura vs Tommaso Ciampa for the Intercontinental Championship</p><p> </p><p> Of course there's also the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royale, the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match, and there is some talk of some sort of NXT match, but that's 50/50 on whether that will happen.</p></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="53911" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="37kLadP.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/37kLadP.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><p> AEW is looking to counteract Wrestlemania weekend with a special on TNT. They announced on their most recent episode of Rampage that they'd hold an AEW event the same day as night one of Wrestlemania. It's currently planned to be an hour long and feature three different title matches. No word on who's penciled in, but according to sources they are going to go full force against Wrestlemania (a la Clash of the Champions against Wrestlemania IV back in 1988).</p></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="53911" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="Djk47aj.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Djk47aj.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><p> Finally (in regards to Wrestlemania weekend), WWE is testing the waters for NXT to start touring again. They have been reaching out to venues in the Dallas-Fort Worth area to check availability for the Thursday before Wrestlemania. This could mean a return to NXT Takeovers, we'll see if they mention anything on TV about it though.</p></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="53911" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="uroiOTp.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/uroiOTp.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="SNXq6VW.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/SNXq6VW.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><p> Ortiz & Santana officially left AEW and joined NXT. They were written off of AEW by announcing that they were quitting the Inner Circle and were just never seen from again. They later showed up at NXT: Vengeance Day, helping Grayson Waller win his match against Johnny Gargano. The plan is for them to be in some sort of stable together, though they are looking for a fourth man to round it out. Word is that the higher-ups in NXT 2.0 like Shawn Michaels and Shane McMahon have been really impressed by Grayson Waller, so they're looking to build around him. Adding Ortiz & Santana to him seems to be a good indicator of that.</p></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="53911" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="ijzOlLO.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ijzOlLO.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><p> NJPW made a bit of news this week when IWGP Champion Will Ospreay announced that he was adding a new member of United Empire, an ex-WWE wrestler to be precise. Ospreay announced he'd be joining the group at the New Japan Cup final in March and speculation has run rampant since. I'm hearing it's one of four people: Keith Lee, Buddy Matthews, JONAH, or Kyle O'Reilly. I think it's going to be O'Reilly, who actually hasn't wrestled since his WWE contract ran out in December. AEW never picked him up because of a contract dispute. Decent chance it's Buddy though, him and Ospreay are pretty good friends and he's been talking about going to Japan (though NOAH have also offered him a contract).</p></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote>
