The road to Wrestlemania 40 has begun. One match that has been booked is Bayley facing Iyo Skye for the Smackdown Women’s Title
Seth has opened the show, and Cody has joined him in the ring. Cody was about to give his decision when Drew came out. Needless to say, it didn’t end well.
D.I.Y won the fatal 4 way for the right to face Pete Dunn/Tyler Bate for the right to go to Elimination Chamber to face Balor/Priest for the tag team belts (those belts really need split)
Becky Lynch faced off against Shayna Baszler for the right to enter the Women’s Elimination Chamber match in Perth. Becky won, (she has never taken part in the Elimination Chamber) (Rumor is that Becky will win that match but don’t count Liv Morgan out either)
Rhea Ripley will defend the Raw Women’s title against Nia Jax at Elimination Chamber. (Somehow Rhea will manage to win, so there won’t be a title change on the road, and there is no need for the belt to change hands at this point unless Creative have gotten a stupid idea)
Jey Uso will face Gunther for the Intercontentional title next week.
Cody faced Shinsuke in a bull rope match. Cody wins despite the mist. (Hubby Phil called it on the mist) It is always a tough match. Drew couldn’t keep his nose out of it, Cody had no time to celebrate.
**NXT — Fallout from Venganance Day. This will be interesting just because of the heel turn of Carmel Hayes. Guess who just walked out carrying a chair. You can’t hear the Universe booing. The announcers didn’t even try to say anything cause it was so loud. Melo said “Not Yet” and walked out of the ring.
Braun Brekker/Baron Corbin are out chatting about their Dusty Rhodes Cup win.
Ilja was out talking about his match with Trick this past Sunday. Ilja gave Trick credit for the level of the match they had. It was the match of the night in my book. Ilja calls Melo out about what he did, and Melo has returned to the ring. Melo was pissed that Trick went after what he felt was rightfully his. Melo admitted to attacking Trick behind his back. Melo is saying that Trick will always just be his hype man and nothing more.
Ilja facing Dijak after their confrontation from earlier. No title on the line. With a little help from Joe Gacy, Ilja with the win but Melo clipped Ilja, all Melop wants is the NXT men’s title back.
**Smackdown — There is fallout from the launch of Wrestlemania 40 from Vegas this past Thursday. I read that Triple H will be on Smackdown to talk more about what happened. Also, read that the winner of the Men’s Elimination Chamber will be facing Seth at Wrestlemania 40. (Nick has confirmed on Smackdown) Qualification starts tonight on Smackdown. Those invited to take part in qualifying are, Randy Orton, Bronson Reed, Kevin Owens, Logan Paul, A.J Styles, The Miz, Bobby Lashley, Ivar, Drew McIntyre, Sami Zayn, Don Mysteryo, L.A Knight (6 matches over 3 events)
Triple H is in the ring, he is the one with the answers, only him. Triple H has made the Roman/Cody match official.
Drew facing A.J. Styles for the right to the Elimination Chamber. (Drew Wins)
Michin facing Bianca to head to the Elimination Chamber. (Bianca Wins)
Bayley is in the ring but here is a question for you — Where is Dakota Kai in all of this?
Tyler Bate/Pete Dunn facing D.I.Y for the right to head to Perth, facing Judgement Day for the Tag Titles. (Tyler/Pete win)
Randy facing Sami Zayn — this match can go either way. I have no clue what to think about this. Sami made Randy earn this win.
