Wrestling Roundup: March 5, 2020

The Wrestling Roundup is here to bring you all the news and rumors you need to know in one place.

AEW Dynamite Results

It was the fallout show from AEW Revolution which was one of the best shows we’ve seen in quite some time. With the next pay-per-view not until May with Double or Nothing, AEW had quite a bit of time to build. What was the fallout? Just like last week, Kaden will have an in-depth review posted later today. Here are the match results:

• Colt Cabana & SCU def. The Dark Order
• Big Swole def. Leva Bates
• PAC def. Chuck Taylor
• Jake Hager def. QT Marshall
• Chris Jericho & Sammy Guevara def. Jon Moxley & Darby Allin

NXT Results

The march to TakeOver: Tampa is on. Two cage matches book-ended Wednesday’s action on the black and yellow brand. Did Roderick Strong or Dakota Kai get comeuppance? Find out in the match results below:

• Dakota Kai def. Tegan Nox in a cage match
• Chelsea Green def. Shotzi Blackheart to earn a spot in the NXT Women’s Championship #1 Contender’s Ladder Match
• Undisputed Era def. Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch
• Austin Theory def. Isaiah Swerve Scott
• Roderick Strong def. Velveteen Dream in a cage match

NXT Takeaways

Velveteen Champ is coming sooner rather than later. In his cage match against Roderick Strong, Dream pushed Strong out of the cage door in order to get a shot at Adam Cole inside the cage. Dream took Cole to the woodshed, hitting him and the rest of Undisputed Era with a kendo stick. The NXT faithful chanted Dream’s name to end the show as he posed with the NXT Championship. It definitely feels like Dream is the next man up to challenge Cole for the gold.

Johnny Gargano is a certified dick now. He scared Mauro Ranallo off in a sit down interview and says next week he and Tommaso are going to do things “his way”. Even if it was jarring to see Gargano this way, I couldn’t help but laugh when he taunts Mauro for not having any “Mamma Mia’s” now.

The intensity from @JohnnyGargano is off the charts when talking about @NXTCiampa!#JohnnyWrestling can't wait for next week on #WWENXT… pic.twitter.com/q0V34KcRZo

A week after two cage matches, NXT will have two title matches. Cameron Grimes stepped up to Keith Lee this week and will get a shot at the “Limitless One” next week. Also next week the Undisputed Era will get their rematch against the Broserweights, but the Grizzled Young Veterans are lurking.

NEXT WEEK will see TWO championship matches from the @WWEPC!

Matt Hardy Meets With The Bucks Of Youth

“Bucks of Youth! I knew you’d come!” In the latest Free The Delete episode, Matt Hardy is visited by Matt and Nick Jackson. Let the speculation of his impending arrival to AEW ramp up.

One for the Road:

Jake Roberts is managing a “new client” in AEW. The promo he cut on Cody Rhodes is exactly what he can bring to the company: a unique and talented storytelling ability.
