That matches are being booked and then re-booked due to all the uncertainty around the coronavirus situation in Florida? If…

The fallout of the Covid-19 strain of coronavirus is hitting the wrestling world hard, with events around the world being canceled by the hour it seems.

Yesterday, March 1, Matt Hardy’s WWE contract expired. And with the expiration of his contract, he himself announced that he would be leaving WWE and entering free agency. Could he be headed to AEW? He spoke in his YouTube “Thoughts From The Throne” series about his decision – “As of this current time, I have decided to let my contract with WWE expire.

Last night, before the AEW Revolution PPV, All Elite Wrestling held The Buy-In pre-show. The match on The Buy-In was The Dark Order vs SCU. During that match, wrestling veteran (and Chicago native) Colt Cabana made a surprise appearance to help SCU in their battle against The Dark Order.

WWE RAW last night took place from the Bell MTS Place in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Many of you may have been wondering just who was that referee on RAW? In the main event of Randy Orton vs Kevin Owens, the referee of the match was EVOLVE and Absolute Intense Wrestling referee Jake Clemons. https://twitter.com/LocalCompWWE/status/1232175502154240000 During the match, it was revealed that Clemons could possibly have been a disciple of “The Monday Night Messiah” Seth Rollins.  “The Messiah” was ringside as Clemons gave Randy a screwy victory as seen in the video below.
