The Wrestling Roundup is here to bring you all the news and rumors you need to know in one place.
WWE Raw Results
For the last time for the foreseeable future, WWE gave us a live Raw on Monday night. The weirdest-ever build to Wrestlemania continued, but how? Here are the results and happenings from the latest Raw to emanate from the Performance Center:
- Andrade Cien Almas & Angel Garza def. Ricochet & Cedric Alexander
- Street Profits def. Brendan Vink & Shane Thorne
- Aleister Black def. Leon Ruff
WWE also aired:
- Brock Lesnar (c) def. Seth Rollins and John Cena to retain the WWE Championship from Royal Rumble 2015
- Charlotte Flair (c) def. Asuka to retain the SmackDown Women’s Championship from Wrestlemania 34
WWE has announced two more matches for the two-night Wrestlemania card. In one, Aleister Black & Bobby Lashley will collide for the first time ever. Black had a match tonight, and you can see how creepy-cool it was below.

The second announced match is a Raw Tag Team Championship match between Street Profits and the team of Angel Garza & Andrade. Both teams were in action Monday night, and the newly formed team of Zelina Vega’s clients was impressive in their victory. This could be a sneaky good match for Wrestlemania.

A.J. Styles cut a promo on the Undertaker, and challenged him to a Boneyard Match. From what we can tell, that appears to be a Buried Alive match in a graveyard. Will a more gimmicky match and setting help mask the Undertaker’s declining abilities? Yes, yes it probably will.
Shayna Baszler had a sit down interview in a pitch black arena, so of course she was attacked by Becky Lynch. Good to see these two get physical once again heading into what is meant to be one of the top matches on Wrestlemania weekend.

WWE Network Has Lots Of Free Content Now
If you’re looking for some wrestling content to pass the time, WWE Network currently has a pretty sweet hook-up for you.

This includes access to every Wrestlemania, Royal Rumble, Summerslam, Survivor Series, and NXT & NXT UK TakeOver. It also includes The Monday Night War & Ruthless Aggression Series, WWE 24, and recent episodes of Raw & SmackDown. People are in need of some wrestling content to watch, and WWE are happy to provide it.
Dana Brooke Pulled From Wrestlemania Match
When WWE first announced the SmackDown Women’s Championship match for Wrestlemania weekend, it was a six-woman match. Now it appears that Dana Brooke has been pulled from the contest. WWE quickly pulled a preview for the six woman match, and are now advertising it as a five way elimination match between Bayley, Sasha Banks, Tamina, Naomi, and Lacey Evans (h/t Fightful). No word has come yet as to why Brooke has been pulled from the match, but it is worth monitoring.
So why is @DanaBrookeWWE no longer being advertised in the #WrestleMania title match? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/W4VdmRzz9Z
