NXT has started to change a bit now as it has a big show coming up next month. That is something they have been needing, though again I can’t imagine it makes much of a difference around here. This is the same dumping ground for lower level NXT stars who need to be in the ring and that isn’t exactly exciting stuff. Let’s get to it.
Opening sequence.
Dante Chen vs. Javier Bernal A lockup goes nowhere to start as they roll away from each other before Bernal grabs a headscissors on the mat. Back up and Chen slips out of an abdominal stretch attempt but gets rolled up for two. A belly to back suplex gets Chen out of trouble but his chinlock doesn’t last long. Bernal comes back with a crossbody for two, only to have Chen roll him up for the pin at 3:26.
Result: Dante Chen b. Javier Bernal – Rollup (3:26)
Respect is shown post match.

It’s a special show as we have Roadblock, because this company likes to hit you over the head with the Road To Wrestlemania, or in this case Stand & Deliver, idea. The main event is a triple threat for the NXT Title between champion Bron Breakker, Dolph Ziggler and Tommaso Ciampa, but we are also going to get more of the women’s Dusty Classic. Let’s get to it.

He’s kind of important. There are a lot of people involved in the wrestling world but there is only one Vince McMahon. Like him or not, McMahon is the most powerful person in the wrestling industry and has been for decades. Anything he does can make a rather large difference in the industry and it can be an even bigger deal when he appears on television. That will likely be the case at WrestleMania 38 and now we know a bit more about it.
One of the matches announced for WrestleMania 38 will see Pat McAfee vs. Austin Theory. The match was originally announced during McMahon’s appearance on McAfee’s podcast, with Theory, who has been mentored by McMahon on WWE TV, being announced as the opponent the following day. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, McMahon is scheduled to be part of the match in some way, with the focus being on McMahon vs. McAfee. There is no word on how that will be set up, but an angle of some sort will be shot before WrestleMania.
Opinion: This is something tha..

It keeps getting bigger. We are rapidly approaching WrestleMania 38 and that means things are starting to get more interesting in WWE. There are a lot of plans that need to be made before we get to the show, but some of those changes have nothing to do with WrestleMania itself. Some other things take place over the course of the weekend and now we might know something else about one of them.
According to Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men Podcast, Sycho Sid will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2022. Sid wrestled for WWE in multiple stints and is a two time WWE Champion, last wrestling for the company in 2012. Should he be inducted, Sid would join Vader and Undertaker, the latter of whom Sid faced for the WWE Title in the main event of WrestleMania 13.
Opinion: Sid is another name that might not have had the biggest demand to get in, but once you hear his name added, it makes sense. He has a certain level of charisma to him that makes you want to see what he is going to do ne..

That’s a unique one. There are all kinds of ways for a wrestler to get injured and some of them can happen out of nowhere. Those injuries are often worse as there is such little warning that they have a bigger impact. On top of that, it can be even stranger if the injury is not something you hear about very often. That is the case again and it happened to one of the biggest stars in WWE.
Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch was not present at this week’s Monday Night Raw, with commentary mentioning an incident with Bianca Belair over the weekend. Lynch posted to Instagram, showing herself in a hospital bed and saying that she suffered a fractured voice box in a match against Belair in Allentown, Pennsylvania on Sunday night. According to PWInsider.com, Lynch’s injury is legitimate and she will be out of action for about two weeks, which will put her back in time for her title defense against Belair at WrestleMania 38.

Welcome to KB’s Old School (and New School) Reviews. I’ve been reviewing wrestling shows for over twelve years now and have reviewed over 6,000 shows. Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I’ll be posting a new review here on Wrestlingrumors.net. It could be anything from modern WWE to old school to indies to anything in between. Note that I rate using letters instead of stars and I don’t rate matches under three minutes as really, how good or bad can something that short be?

This is the month’s Impact Plus special and the card is looking decent. There are a ton of title matches, capped off by Heath of all people getting the World Title shot. If that isn’t your thing, there are three Women’s Title matches, plus a hoss fight between Jonah and PCO. Let’s get to it.
Note that I was in attendance for the show, sitting in the balcony. That being said, I barely saw ..

There’s your answer. WrestleMania is on the horizon and that means it is time for WWE to find something to make the show feel as important as possible. That is often easier said than done but now the company seems to be putting together some of their bigger ideas. They still need a few more major concepts though and that is what they seem to have set up this week.
This week’s edition of WWE Monday Night Raw opened with Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens failing to win the Raw Tag Team Titles. As a result, the two did not have a path to WrestleMania, but Owens said he had an idea. At the end of the show, Owens said that he wanted to put on the biggest Kevin Owens Show of all time at WrestleMania. Owens issued a challenge to Steve Austin to be his guest. This comes after rumors of Austin wrestling another match at the event, with Owens insulting Austin’s home state of Texas for several weeks. There is no word on if Austin will appear before WrestleMania.
Opinion: As much fun as it would have..

You never want to see what. There are all kinds of matches in wrestling and some of them can be incredibly dangerous. While a wrestler can be hurt in any kind of match, there are certain matches that crank up the risk even higher. That can lead to a variety of injuries and now it seems that one such match might have led to an injury that could put a star on the shelf.
Last weekend’s AEW Revolution pay per view included the Face of the Revolution ladder match, which included six competitors. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Orange Cassidy suffered a shoulder injury when he was tossed over the ring and landed on a pile of wrestlers. There is no word on the severity of his injury or how long he might be out of action as a result, though he was described as the only “serious” injury of the night.
Opinion: That is never good to hear and hopefully Cassidy’s injury is nothing serious and he will be back in action sooner rather than later. A match like that is going to have all kinds o..

There’s room for more. We are less than a month away from WrestleMania 38 and the question is starting to become how to get as many people onto the show as possible. There are only so many places to put all of these people and that can make for some issues. WWE has a few ways to add people to the lineup and that is what they have done again as a title match has grown.
This week on Monday Night Raw, Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley defeated WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Queen Zelina and Carmella in a non-title match. As a result, Morgan and Ripley have been added to the Women’s Tag Team Title match at WrestleMania 38, where Vega and Carmella are scheduled to defend against Sasha Banks and Naomi. The match is scheduled to take place on Sunday April 3.
Opinion: I’m not wild on this kind of addition as it feels like a way to cram in everyone that can be placed into a match. What makes it worse is that these aren’t regular teams. They’re just women being thrown together and being given a title..

History has been made! We are on the way to WrestleMania 38 and you can see most of the matches coming from here. There are going to be several title matches on the card but WWE still needs to officially set some of those matches. That might mean some titles changing hands, which was the case this week as some former champions got their hands on the gold again.
This week on Monday Night Raw, RKBro (Randy Orton/Riddle) defeated Raw Tag Team Champions Alpha Academy and SethR ollins/Kevin Owens in a triple threat match to win the titles. The win marks RKBro’s second reign as champions after they lost the championships to Alpha Academy in January. Commentary suggested that the win would send RKBro to WrestleMania 38 as champions.
Opinion: This is a bit of a surprise and makes me wonder how necessary the initial title change was. At least there is something for RKBro to do at WrestleMania, as I was starting to think they might split the team up. Owens and Rollins can go on to do whatever ..

We are less than a month away from Wrestlemania and that means we are probably going to start some of the harder pushes to the show this week. In theory we should be getting some more matches set for the show, as probably about half of it has been set. There is also a Tag Team Title match this week so let’s get to it.

She would know best. There are all kinds of reasons for a wrestler to be kept out of the ring and some of them can be quite serious. Sometimes you are going to see a wrestler get hurt and kept on the shelf for a very long time, which can make for a very long wait as they get back to full health. That is the case for a popular WWE star, but it seems that she might be out longer than expected.
In recent weeks, reports have begun to pop up saying that WWE’s Asuka is ready to return to the ring after a several month layoff. However, Asuka has replied to some of the reports on Twitter, saying that she is not yet medically cleared. Asuka has not wrestled since Money in the Bank 2021 and there is no word on when she will be back in the ring or what she will be doing.
Opinion: This is the kind of thing that is going to happen occasionally and that is not the biggest surprise. Asuka has been out of action for the better part of a year now and it is going to lead to speculation that she is cle..
