  • Charlotte vs. Natalya added to WWE Roadblock

    Another match has been added to Saturday’s WWE Roadblock Network special with Charlotte defending the Divas title against Natalya.

    The two reportedly had a strong match in Montreal last night.

    The two turned a lot of people around on the prospect of women’s wrestling on the main roster with their May 2014 match at TakeOver in Orlando. However, the two have not been put together for a high profile long match since Charlotte won the championship.

    Nattie posted the following on her Instagram page:  “As I make my way to Toronto for #WWERoadBlock, I’m dedicating my match to Bret Hart. His fight against cancer has inspired me to fight even harder in my own life. @Charlottewwe is going to have her hands full AND I can’t wait.#RoadtoWrestleMania#WWENetwork“.

    Here’s the full card for tonight’s show (at least everything that’s been announced for TV):

    • WWE Champion HHH vs. Dean Ambrose
    • Brock Lesnar vs. Bray Wyatt
    • Divas Champion Charlotte vs. Natalya
    • WWE Tag Team Champions New Day vs Sheamus & King Barrett
    • NXT Champions Dash Wilder & Scott  Dawson vs. Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady

    Also scheduled for the show are Sheamus, Chris Jericho and Sami Zayn. The show will air at 8 PM EST/5 PM PST. Our Bryan Rose will have your coverage tonight.

  • Brock Lesnar vs. Bray Wyatt booked for WWE Roadblock

    On this week’s edition of Smackdown that aired in Canada Wednesday and in the U.S. Thursday, WWE announced that Brock Lesnar will wrestle Bray Wyatt at the Network exclusive special on March 12th, emanating from Toronto, ON.

    This was discussed in recent Wrestling Observer Newsletters and on Wednesday’s Wrestling Observer Radio.

    This match was originally scheduled for this year’s WrestleMania, but Dean Ambrose was moved into the Wyatt spot prior to the Fastlane PPV. Wyatt does not have a WrestleMania opponent as of yet, but it’s expected that he and the rest of the Wyatt Family will compete in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.

    This follows an announcement Tuesday that Triple H will defend the WWE title in the main event of Roadblock. In addition, NXT Tag Team Champions The Revival (Dash Wilder/Scott Dawson) will defend those titles against Enzo Amore and Colin Cassidy in a match made official on Wednesday’s NXT broadcast. 

    Lesnar has been a fixture of these Network specials, competing against Kofi Kingston and Big Show on recent shows.
