Preview and Predictions for WWE Wrestlemania 32

On April 3rd, 2016 the Super Bowl, World Series and Stanley Cup of Pro Wrestling will take place. WWE's Wrestlemania will be airing for the 32nd time. It will take place at AT&T Stadium in Dallas Texas. The other two Wrestlemania's to take place in Texas were Wrestlemania 17 and 25 both of which were out of this world. This years Wrestlemania is a little different. The roster is injured and depleted. The man who is suppose to be the top face gets booed everywhere he goes. To top it all off the prodigal son returns home to take back what he feels what is rightfully his. It all goes down on April 3rd. This pay-per-view has the potential to silence the critics and be absolutely great or it will prove the fans that have been calling for change right. Here is why I think it will be great.

Team Total Divas vs. Team BAD and Blonde

I do like that they are giving the other Divas a chance to at-least work on the card whether it be on the main card or not. I believe this will be Lana's coming out party of what she can really do. However in the end Brie BelEla will get the win since there is a chance this will be her final match in WWE. I am sure it will be a highly emotional match because these women have worked so hard together to get more attention and get more time in the ring. The Bella Twins will be missed but it gives a chance for some one else to step up and be a major player in the Divas Division

United States Championship: Kalisto(c) vs. Ryback 

I do love the whole David vs.Goliath concept in this match because Kalisto is one hell of a performer and Ryback has changed his look and style. His ring work is slowly picking up and he's becoming the guy I always thought he could be. Even though it looks like it would be an easy win for Ryback I got to go with Kalisto to continue his United States run. He's exciting, and fun to watch in the ring. Ever since his performance at TLC in December he has gained a lot of momentum and popularity with the crowds. Don't fix what's not broken. Keep the momentum going to Kalisto

The Uso's vs. The Dudley Boyz

I feel like that these two teams being on the preshow is a slap in the face. The Dudleyz are legendary and The Uso's will eventually become legendary. It's about passing the torch and I believe The Uso's deserve that torch. I do think when it's all said and done that The Dudleyz deserve one more tag team title run before their time is done. I think by giving The Uso's the rub and spotlight The Dudley Boyz they will show they can go with any team that WWE currently has on their roster. I think this will be a great tag team encounter for the ages with The Uso's coming out on top. 

Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal

So far the participants include Heath Slater, Curtis Axel, Adam Rose, Bo Dallas, Big Show, Kane, Tyler Breeze, Mark Henry, Jack Swagger, Fandango, Damien Sandow, Darren Young, Konnor, Viktor, Goldust, R-Truth. There are four more spots in the Battle Royal and I think whoever the four are will probably be one of the individuals who win the Battle Royal and get their name put next to Cesaro and Big Show on the Andre the Giant trophy. I just don't see any of the other participants winning and gaining momentum out of it. Hopefully whoever does win this match gets a well deserved push over the next year. 

The New Day vs. League of Nations

I was really excited about this match at first because originally the tag titles were suppose to be on the line. I thought what a way for the four best international performers to get some recognition by their faction wining the tag titles. For some reason the titles are not on the line and I think they did that so New Day still gets over even if they decide to have League of Nations win. It's a weird situation but I think when the final bell rings The New Day will be dancing in the ring at the biggest stage of them all. 

Intercontental Championship Ladder Match: Kevin Owens(c) vs. Zack Ryder vs. Stardust vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Sami Zayn vs. Sin Cara vs, The Miz

It's nice to see some talent like Sin Cara and Ryder getting some spotlight. All seven of the these men are talented in their own right. Some get the spotlight and some don't. I think this match will shock a lot of people. My bold prediction for this match is either Kevin Owens retaining or Sami Zayn winning. I think WWE realizes that's the money feud and people want to see this feud continue where it left off in NXT and Ring of Honor. Either way it comes out both Zayn and Owens will be the highlight of this match.

AJ Styles vs. Chris Jericho

I am so excited to see AJ Styles on the greatest stage there is in wrestling. He carried the TNA banner for so long and was one of the stars in Japan, He is now where I believe he belongs and that's working on the biggest wrestling show there is. Chris Jericho has always been about giving back and helping pave the way for future stars. I think this will be Styles and Jericho best match yet. They are going to bring it all to the ring and leave everything that they have for us to be amazed and inspired. I am giving the nod to AJ Styles who win at his Wrestlemania 32.

Divas Championship: Charlotte vs. Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch

This will be a match for the ages. I have doubts that this will set the bar for women's matches at Wrestlemania for years to come. Sasha Banks already set the bar high back in August with her match against Bayley but she will be looking to set the bar higher with the entire world watching. I think Charlotte has had a great run as Divas Champion but I believe it Sasha Banks time to carry the belt and be the leader of the Women's Division in WWE. The Boss will be the champ when Wrestlemania is over with.

No Hold Barred Street Fight: Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar

The Lunatic Fringe vs. The Beast will be one of the most fierce, barbaric and brutal matches in the history of Wrestlemania and WWE history. I look for Lesnar to dominate from a physical specimen standpoint but when it comes to taking chances and doing whatever it takes I got to give the edge to Ambrose. It's hard predicting a winner for this match but considering Dean has gotten the blessings from Mick Foley and Terry Funk I have to give the match to Dean Ambrose. 

Hell in a Cell: Shane McMahon vs. The Undertaker (If Shane wins he gets control of Raw, while if The Undertaker loses he will no longer be able to compete at Wrestlemania

This is the match we will be talking about for many years. I don't think The Undertaker should have ever lost two years ago but he did. I think that puts an entire different perspective on the match. If Undertaker has already lost then what difference does it make if  he loses again. I truly believe his career is coming to an end and if it is then it should be in his home state of Texas. I think Shane's return is great for television and great for the actual business of WWE. I have this gut feeling that some way Shane McMahon will defeat the legendary Undertaker at Wrestlemania to gain control of Raw

WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Triple H(c) vs. Roman Reigns

This match should be and could be one of the best matches of this generation if the WWE fans would stop hijacking Roman Reigns progress and career. I do believe Reigns will walk out of Dallas with the gold but it won't be a very friendly reception. They need to do to Roman is turn him heel like they did The Rock and let him voice his opinions about his feelings towards the crowd. Then and only then will they get off of his back and let him have the success he deserves. I am glad that Triple H is recognizing the future and that the future is now. Hopefully the WWE Universe is ready for that future. 

It's the grandaddy of them all, the showcase of the immortals, the grandest stage of them all. It's Wrestlemania and this year will determine a lot about what the future is going to be like. Sit back, relax and enjoy the biggest show of the year.

How to Fix NASCAR's Xfinity Series

The NASCAR Xfinity Series has always been home to the stars of the future. I remember when the Xfinity Series was as competitive of the Sprint Cup Series. The Xfinity Series has given starts to some of the greatest drivers such as Bobby Labonte, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kevin Harvick, Greg Biffle, Carl Edwards, Martin Truex Jr., Clint Bowyer, Brad Keselowski, and Kyle Busch. All of these drivers had great success in the Xfinity Series and it translated into them having great success in the Sprint Cup Series. Over the last few years things have changed in NASCAR and one of them is that drivers can only compete for championship. Drivers can no longer earn points in both the Sprint Cup and Xfinity Series. In the view of some people this has caused a lot of issues in the XFinity Series more so then it has in the Sprint Cup Series. 

There are a lot of drivers from the Sprint Cup who drive in the Xfinity Series and sometimes dominate an entire race. When a Sprint Cup driver wins a race in the XFinity Series they do not earn any points which in a way really messes up the points system for the series. Many have suggested that Sprint Cup drivers should not be allowed to drive in the XFinity Series due to having this problem. The big problem with that idea is how are you going to tell a team owner who they can and can't put in their car? If NASCAR tried to dictate they would lose a lot sponsorships and star power which is something they struggle to begin with. Another idea I heard is if they are not racing for points then they shouldn't win any money that comes with racing in the series. That creates another problem because why would an owner spend money to be in a race when they won't get something in return. They would be losing money which mean eventually a team and it's employees would cease to exist. NASCAR needs a solution but these ideas aren't the answer

I think NASCAR should keep allowing Sprint Cup drivers to race in the XFinity Series but here's the new rule. If you're not racing for points then you automatically start in the back. This way you still have the sponsors, the star power and you make it more intriguing to see if the veterans can come from the back. Let's make it a challenge for these drivers. If they want the win and the money make them really earn it. I think it would be a lot more competitive for everyone involved. I also believe keeping the Sprint Cup drivers in the XFinity Series gives a chance for the younger drivers to learn and know how certain drivers operate on the racetrack. In recent years Austin Dillon and Chase Elliot were very successful in the XFinity Series and they are starting to come into their own in the Sprint Cup Series. One of the main reasons is because they races against some very tough competition and had to find a way to beat them. NASCAR should keep the Sprint Cup Drivers, shake up the rules and keep everyone happy. I think it's beneficial for the long term success of the XFinity Series. 

I don't think these issues will be resolved overnight but when they do it's going to either help the sport or hurt it to a degree where people lose interest. I don't think the XFinity Series would survive without a handful of Sprint Cup Drivers competing in it every weekend. Hopefully NASCAR understands this and doesn't do any irrational. I have my own ideas of how NASCAR should be fixed but that's another topic for another day. For now lets see how the XFinity Series progresses or regresses.  

Road to WWE Wrestlemania 32: Week 9

For being the biggest show of the year and the show rapidly approaching this week seemed very quiet and didn't have much of an impact. There were a couple of more matches made for the biggest show of the year and there were some good matches but nothing really epic happened. The two things that stand out in my mind was seeing Terry Funk pass the torch to Dean Ambrose much like Mick Foley did the week before. Then you had Vince McMahon announce that if the The Undertaker does not beat Shane McMahon then he will no longer be able to compete at Wrestlemania. These were honestly the only two things that really stuck in my head this week. With that being said here is what went down this week in the world of WWE:

Monday Night Raw

Kevin Owens defeated AJ Styles

Big E defeated Rusev

Chris Jericho defeated Fandango

Sin Cara, Stardust, and Zack Ryder 

Charlotte defeated Natalya 

Bubba Ray Dudley defeated R-Truth

Braun Strowman defeated Dean Ambrose

WWE NXT

Johnny Gargano defeated Elias Samson

Finn Balor defeated Rich Swann

Alexa Bliss defeated Sarah Dobson

Asuka defeated Emma

Thursday Night Smackdown

Sasha Banks defeated Charlotte

Sheamus defeated Kofi Kingston

The Uso's defeated The Ascension 

Dolph Ziggler/Sami Zayn defeated Kevin Owens/The Miz

Bubba Ray defeated Roman Reigns

AJ Styles defeated Tyler Breeze

As I said before it felt like a really quiet week in the WWE. This upcoming week should be intense and epic because next weekend is Wrestlemania 32. Things usually get wild and crazy during the go home show before the big event. In the meantime here is the current card for Wrestlemania 32:

WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Triple H(c) vs. Roman Reigns

Hell in a Cell: Shane McMahon vs. The Undertaker (If Shane wins and The Undertaker loses Shane gets full control of Raw and The Undertaker is banned from competing at Wrestlemania)

No Holds Barred Street Fight: Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar

Divas Championship: Charlotte(c) vs. Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch 

The New Day vs. League of Nations 

Intercontental Championship Ladder Match: Kevin Owens(c) vs. Zack Ryder vs. Stardust vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Sami Zayn vs. Sin Cara vs. The Miz

United States Championship: Kalisto(c) vs, Ryback 

The Uso's vs. The Dudley Boyz 

Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal

Previewing and Predicting NXT Takeover Dallas

Next Friday kicks off Wrestlemania weekend and it's going be a great kickoff to the weekend with NXT Takeover Dallas. Last time there was an NXT event on the weekend of a major pay-per-view the NXT show out shined and out did what the main roster did. Since then I like many others had been wondering if Triple H would have a NXT special on Wrestlemania weekend. The question had been answered and the card has been set. I have a feeling that this NXT Takeover special is going to put a lot of pressure on Wrestlemania. With that being said here is the card for NXT Takeover Dallas:

NXT Championship: Finn Balor(c) vs. Samoa Joe

Finn Balor has been NXT Champion since July 4, 2015 and has taken on all comers. With all the rumors of Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows coming to WWE to reunite New Japan's "Bullet Club" I believe it is the perfect time for a new NXT Champion to be crowned. I think Balor has been more then ready for the main roster for awhile now but there has been an internal struggle between Triple H and Vince McMahon. The internal struggle is that Vince wants Balor on the main roster while Triple H is afraid that Balor will end up like Tyler Breeze if he's brought up. I think Vince gets his way and Balor comes up which means Samoa Joe becomes the new NXT Champion

NXT Women's Championship: Bayley(c) vs. Asuka 

This is another case of another talent being ready to come up to the main roster. Bayley is the last of the Four Horsewomen down in NXT. I can picture the night after Wrestlemania and seeing Bayley walk to the ring and challenge the Diva's Champion. I think Asuka is going to be the new leader of the Women's Division in NXT and help out the next group of Divas to come up. Bayley has hit her peak in NXT and there's nothing left for her to accomplish or prove down there. She will have a great match with Asuka but the title will be changing hands in Dallas.

NXT Tag Team Championship: The Revival (c) vs. American Alpha

I am torn on this match for personal reasons because I enjoy both teams. The Revival reminds me of the Brainbusters and the Anderson's while American Alpha reminds me of Team Angle. Gable and Jordan have been on fire and so has their reaction from the crowd for them. I believe that both teams are main roster ready and have the capabilities of shaking up the tag team division. I am going with American Alpha to win the titles and to start a short feud with The Revival over the next few months. 

Sami Zayn vs. Shinsuke Nakamura

Even the outcome is so obvious on this match I believe this has the capability of being the best match of the entire weekend. Both Zayn and Nakamura are extremely talented but the "King of Strongstyle" is making his debut and there is no way he loses his debut match. Nakamura will impress the NXT crowds and be an immediate contender to the NXT Title.

Austin Aries vs. Baron Corbin 

I love what Austin Aries has done in his career. He's a former Ring of Honor and TNA Heavyweight Champion that's been in the ring with the absolute best. Baron Corbin may be stronger, bigger and mean but Austin Aries knows how to break an opponent down. I think Aries is another one that is going to be warmly received by the NXT crowds. Aries gets the win and The Greatest Man Alive will be another immediate contender to the NXT Title. 

Apollo Crews vs. Elias Samson 

This is a good match to calm the crowds down with all the excitement that's going to be taking place on this show. I have no interest in the Elias Samson character because it's one of those characters that's not very believable. The only two people whoever pulled the guitar gimmick off are Honky Tonk Man and Jeff Jarrett. You need to have the right kind of charisma to carry a guitar and he doesn't have it. I hope Apollo Crews wins and gets some momentum going again. I feel like he hasn't had the momentum that he once did when he first started. I look Crews to win and get back in the hunt for the NXT Title.

I am super excited for this show. With the all the injuries and a rumor of a brand split the names I could see coming the main roster are Finn Balor, Bayley, Enzo Amore Colin Cassasy and Carmella. All of them have worked on the main roster and all of them have spent significant time in NXT. This would take a little bit out of NXT but NXT's roster is deeper then the main roster so it wouldn't be to bad of a blow for the NXT brand. NXT is taking over Dallas on April 1st and you would be a fool to miss such a great event. Check back for the results and review of the show. 

Stan Hansen to be Inducted into the 2016 WWE Hall of Fame

When you think of tough men from Texas you always think of the Rhodes and the Funks. Most men from Texas don't make a living being successful in Japan. For the majority of his 28 year career Stan "the Lariat" Hansen wrestled in Japan. He was trained by the Funk family which explains the craziness and the toughness of this man. His cowboy hat, tobacco chewing and bull-rope carrying ways was enough to intimidate any opponent. Early on his career he had runs in WWE and AWA. He won the AWA World Heavyweight Championship but then decided not defend it. His actions of running over the AWA Championship with his truck and sending it back to Verne Gagne is one of the things that made him legendary. He also spent some time in WCW feuding with Lex Luger, Terry Gordy and Steve Williams.

His legend grew even further when he and Vader fought in 1990. All Japan and New Japan had a dream card show where Vader and Hansen had a brutal match which resulted in Vader's eye being heavily damaged by Hansen's use of his thumb. He never worked for New Japan again. He spent his time in All Japan teaming with Bruiser Brody, Terry Gordy,Ted DiBiase, Genichiro Tenryu, Dan Spivey, and Bobby Duncum, Jr. He also feuded with some of his partners from time to time because he was that crazy. Hansen also body-slammed Andre the Giant, feuded with Giant Baba and headlined in Japan with Hulk Hogan. In my opinion, he was the first American to be successful in the Japanese Wrestling Culture. 

When I think about the impact that Stan Hansen, I think to myself that if it weren't for him there would be no such thing as the Bullet Club. Hansen paved the way for wrestlers in North America and Europe to be successful. He paved the way for guys like Finn Balor, AJ Styles, Karl Anderson, and Matt Bloom. He has also influenced guys like John Bradshaw Layfield, and Luke Harper. In his career we won 39 championships with the majority coming in Japan. He is very well deserving of this honor and his legacy of what he did in Japan will be forever remembered. Congratulations to Stan Hansen on becoming a member of the 2016 WWE Hall of Fame. 

Road to WWE Wrestlemania 32: Week 8

This week's Road to Wrestlemania had some twists and turns that are really setting the tone for Wrestlemania 32. The first thing that comes to mind is Neville ended up getting injured on Raw and is now out for Wrestlemania. He's just another name in the long list of injuries in WWE. He was rumored to be involved in a multi-man Intercontinental Title Match with Kevin Owens and Kevin Owens. The other big thing this week is Shane McMahon and The Undertaker came face to face which resulted in Shane getting choke-slammed to end Raw. The Wrestlemania card is now officially in place and with two weeks left there might be one or two more matches added to the biggest show of the year. Before I talk about the Wrestlemania card here is how things went down in WWE this week:

Monday Night Raw

The New Day defeated Alberto Del Rio/Rusev

Ryback defeated Sin Cara

Sami Zayn defeated The Miz

Naomi/Tamina defeated Alica Fox/Brie Bella

The Uso's defeated Bo Dallas/Adam Rose

Triple H defeated Dolph Ziggler 

Neville defeated Chris Jericho

WWE NXT

The Hype Bros defeated Angelo Dawkins/Kenneth Crawford

Emma defeated Deonna Purrazzo

Tommaso Ciampa defeated Jesse Sorenson

Bayley/Asuka defeated Eva Marie/Nia Jax

American Alpha defeated The Vaudevillians 

Thursday Night Smackdown

Dolph Ziggler defeated The Miz

Bubba Ray Dudley defeated Goldust

Kofi Kingston defeated Wade Barrett

Kevin Owens defeated AJ Styles

I must say that the Owens-Styles match on Smackdown was very fun to watch. I think if given 30 minutes or more they would tear the house down. Even if Styles is not involved with Intercontinental Title match I see him and Owens feuding post Wrestlemania. Speaking of the Intercontinental Title, it has been rumored that Dolph Ziggler would be involved with Kevin Owens and the Intercontinental title match, Ziggler competed on Raw against Triple H in what I would consider a match of the year candidate. A lot of people are complaining that Triple H officially "buried" Ziggler once and for all. I have to ask, are you kidding me? This very well could have been the last match Triple H ever wrestles on Monday Night Raw. He gave Ziggler atleast a good 20 minutes and made Ziggler look great. For someone who buries talent he sure took one of heck of a beating from Roman Reigns. I've come to the conclusion that you're not going to make all the wrestling fans happy. With that being said here is the current Wrestlemania Card:

 WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Triple H (c) vs. Roman Reigns  

Hell in a Cell: Shane McMahon vs. The Undertaker (If Shane wins he gets control of Monday Night Raw)

Street Fight: Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar

The New Day vs, League of Nations

Divas Championship: Charlotte(c) vs. Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch

The Uso's vs. Dudley Boys

United States Championship: Kalisto(c) vs. Ryback

Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal

Wrestlemania is just two short weeks away and I am sure the next two weeks of television should be intriguing and intense. Check back next week for more on the Road to Wrestlemania as well as my NXT Takeover Preview and Predictions. 

Adam LaRoche vs. Kenny Williams: The War Within the White Sox

Adam LaRoche has been playing in Major League Baseball now for 12 years and has always been an upstanding guy with good credentials. Earlier this week it was revealed that LaRoche decided to retire because White Sox President Kenny Willliams told LaRoche he had to limit how much he brings his son into the clubhouse. Williams position was solidified by him saying "name one job in the country were you can bring your child to work everyday." LaRoche walked away from 13 millions dollars citing that his family was more important. Since then players like Chris Sale have confront Kenny Williams while the entire team threatened to boycott because LaRoche is very well liked. It took Manager Robin Ventura to step in and tell his players that they need to play the game despite that bad blood with team executives. I think this all have could been avoided all together if there was some kind of understanding, not just a demand. 

I could see if the White Sox were in the middle of a Division Race and fighting for a playoff spot and having a 14 year old kid around was too distracting. I could also understand if other players in the White Sox organization had a problem with it but they didn't. Drake LaRoche became apart of the team to the point that they set up a locker for him next his dad. This isn't the first time Kenny Williams has been in the spotlight for something negative. In 2006, he lashed out against Hall of Fame First Basemen Frank Thomas due to Thomas' remarks about Williams and White Sox leadership. Thomas always felt insulted that Williams called him an idiot and said that no one in the White Sox organization would miss him. Thomas was also upset that Williams low-balled him on one of his last contracts stating that Thomas' skills were diminishing. Frank Thomas was a legend during his time as a Chicago White Sox so for Kenny Williams to treat anyone any better would be a surprise. To my knowledge Major League Baseball doesn't have any rules or regulations about who can be in the clubhouse and who can't be. If there are no rules and regulations against bringing your kid to the clubhouse then Williams should have left it alone and let Adam LaRoche spend quality time with his son Drake while playing the game he loves.

More times then I care to count we see athletes not being responsible, not being a good role-model and not doing right by family and friends.I applaud Adam LaRoche for wanting his son to spend time with him. Athletes do sacrifice a lot of time they could spend with their families and if LaRoche made arrangements to spend time with his son then people should be happy for them. I really hope that another team picks up LaRoche and doesn't give him grief about letting his son hangout with him. I also hope that White Sox players continue to voice their frustration and take a stand on LaRoche's behalf. Chris Sale was already very vocal in telling Kenny Williams to get out of the locker-room and stay out. This whole thing could completely come back to haunt Kenny Williams especially if LaRoche is allowed to file a grievance against Williams and the White Sox. Both sides are standing firm and haven't budged on the situation. I have a feeling that this story is far from over. Keep checking back on the Hollywood's World of Sports Facebook Page for more updates on this story. 

Jacqueline Moore to be Inducted into the 2016 WWE Hall of Fame

When I think of Miss Jackie and almost 20 year career I think of a woman who was tough, gifted in the ring and never backed down from anyone whether it be male or female. My first real memories of Jacqueline is during the infamous feud between Chris Benoit and Kevin Sullivan. Kevin's ex-wife Nancy (known as Woman) was in a relationship with Benoit and accompanied him to the ring. This led to Sullivan acquiring the help of Jackie. Her time in WCW was brief but she also feuded the Disco Inferno and at one point managed the Harlem Heat.

It was in WWE where people took notice. She was involved in a storyline with Marc Mero and Sable. Mero and Sable were married in real life but they had issues on screen because of Mero's jealousy. Jackie came into aid Marc Mero to try and rid the WWE of Sable. After 6 months with Mero they eventually split and she became apart of Pretty Mean Sisters with Terri Runnels. In 2004, she made history by becoming only the third woman to win the Cruiserweight Championship.  The other two women were Daffney and Madusa in WCW. One of the other things that stand out is that Jackie was a trainer of the first Tough Enough. Her career in WWE had a lot of great highlights and she helped paved the way for future women that would come after her.

After her tenure in WWE, Jacqueline went to TNA Impact Wrestling. She spent her time there doing everything from wrestling, refereeing and managing. She managed James Storm and feuded with Gail Kim. Her time in TNA Impact Wrestling was memorable and she really helped the women of the Knockout's Division. Before her time in WCW, WWE, and TNA she was a UWF Women's Champions and a 14 time USWA Women's Champion. She has experience in kickboxing, boxing and a third degree black belt in taekwondo.

What an honor for Jacqueline Moore to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Miss Jackie will only be the ninth women inducted into the Hall of Fame and she goes in with some pretty great company. Congratulations to Jacqueline Moore on being the latest inductee in to the WWE Hall of Fame.

Review of WWE NXT Greatest Matches Vol. 1

Results, Review, Recap of WWE Roadblock 2016

In years past after the Royal Rumble fans would have one pay per view between the Rumble and Wrestlemania. It was either No Way Out, Elimination Chamber or Fastlane. This is the first time WWE aired a major show three weeks before their biggest show. Before I begin my thoughts on Roadblock here are the results of tonight's monumental show:

-The New Day defeated The League of Nations(Sheamus/Barrett) to retain the WWE Tag Team Championships.
-Chris Jericho defeated Jack Swagger
-The Revival defeated Enzo Amore/Colin Cassidy to retain the NXT Tag Titles
-Charlotte defeated Natalya to retain the WWE Divas Championship
-Brock Lesnar defeated Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper in a Handicap Match.
-Sami Zayn defeated Stardust
-Triple H defeated Dean Ambrose to retain the WWE World Heavyweight Championship

This in my opinion was a very big waste of time. I really thought this show was going to really shake some things up heading into Wrestlemania. Instead of guys like Owens and Styles on the show you use Jack Swagger and Stardust who aren't even involved in a major storyline at the moment. It's nice to see these guys get some airtime but how did it fit into the Wrestlemania plans? It didn't whatsoever. I also didn't like the fact that there was four title matches announced and not one of them changed hands to shake things up for Wrestlemania.

WWE better get it together in the next three weeks because right now the undercard of Wrestlemania does not look all the impressive. If you really think about it there is not even an under card to speak of. You can definitely tell that this was a Vince McMahon produced show and not a Triple H produced show. Triple H's NXT wouldn't have put on this horrible of a show leading up to the big event. With Wrestlemania three weeks away the main roster better step it up and so better the people running the show. The fact that the NXT Takeover show is two nights before Wrestlemania should scare the crap out of everyone on the main roster. Look at how great the last NXT Takeover was on the weekend of a major pay-per-view.

I am not even going to rate this show because you really can't consider at a typical WWE pay-per-view. I will say I am disappointed, dissatisfied, and dejected after that waste of two and half hours. Speaking of time. The show was scheduled for three hours and it cut out 30 minutes early. Another piss poor example of time wasted and mismanagement. April 3rd is rapidly approaching. I hope that they don't disappoint in Dallas and hope they don't disappoint everyone in the WWE Universe. Until then we march on to the Road to Wrestlemania.

Road to WWE Wrestlemania 32: Week 7

This week on the Road to Wrestlemania partnerships were destroyed and rivalries were renewed. There were some really great matches and great stories leading up to to WWE Roadblock on Saturday and Wrestlemania just a few weeks away. Here is what went down this week in the WWE Universe:

Monday Night Raw

Kevin Owens defeated Neville

Summer Rae defeated Brie Bella

League of Nations defeated Dolph Ziggler

Becky Lynch/Sasha Banks defeated Naomi/Tamina

The New Day defeated AJ Styles/Chris Jericho

Kalisto defeated Tyler Breeze

Ryback defeated Curtis Axel

Dean Ambrose defeated Bray Wyatt

WWE NXT

Samoa Joe defeated Sami Zayn in two out of three falls

Thursday Night Smackdown

Sami Zayn/Neville defeated The Miz/Kevin Owens

Brie Bella defeated Summer Rae

Sheamus/King Barrett defeated Lucha Dragons

Dean Ambrose/Dolph Ziggler/The Uso's defeated The Wyatt Family

There have been so many rumors of matches taking place at Wrestlemania. I still think even with three weeks left that so many things are up in the air. The roster still isn't as strong as it should be so maybe the utilization of one or two more NXT stars would be beneficial for things to go well. I think at this point guys like Finn Balor, Samoa Joe, and a few other seasoned veterans deserve a spot on a Wrestlemania card. Maybe we'll see some NXT guys show up at Roadblock. This Saturday at WWE Roadblock I suspect one or two shocking things are going to happen to shake things up. Here are the current cards for WWE Roadblock and Wrestlemania.

WWE Roadblock Card

WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Triple H(c) vs. Dean Ambrose

Brock Lesnar vs. Bray Wyatt

WWE Tag Team Championship: King Barrett/Sheamus vs. The New Day (c)

NXT Tag Team Championship: The Revival (c) vs. Enzo Amore/Colin Cassidy


Wrestlemania 32 Card

WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Triple H(c) vs. Roman Reigns

Hell in a Cell: Shane McMahon vs. The Undertaker (If Shane wins he gets control of Monday Night Raw)

No Holds Barred Street Fight: Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar

WWE Divas Championship: Charlotte(c) vs. Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch
