A listener calls in to open today’s show, saying he’s really looking forward to watching Backlash this weekend. The caller also hopes that the United States Title match between Kevin Owens and A.J. Styles main events the show. Taz says that he can understand that opinion, because those two guys can potentially steal the show, however he thinks Randy Orton and Jinder Mahal are going to have a great match as well.

Taz says that he didn’t like WWE’s utilization of Kevin Owens last night. He doesn’t believe that Owens should be stealing Chris Jericho’s gimmicks, and he thinks that Owens should be standing on his own because he’s better than this. Taz assumes that Jericho will be returning sooner than later and these two guys will revisit their feud, but Taz wonders how long WWE can drag out this program. It has already been ongoing for multiple months, and it doesn’t appear to be ending anytime soon.

A listener calls into the show and says that reforming The Shield is the only way that Roman Reigns is going to get over as a babyface with the WWE Universe. Taz disagrees and says reforming The Shield right now would be admitting defeat and would be a step back for Reigns and the company as a whole. He believes that turning Reigns full heel for a year or more would eventually result in the audience getting on Reigns’ side, then the company can flip him back to babyface.

Dave Meltzer reported in the latest edition of ‘The Wrestling Observer Newsletter‘ that ”The Architect” Seth Rollins may be out of in-ring action for around 8 weeks after tearing his ACL during his segment with ”The Destroyer” Samoa Joe on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW. It seems that it is possible for Rollins to make the show, where he is scheduled to face ”The Cerebral Assassin” Triple H.

WrestleMania 32 had 11 matches in total (minus the impromptu 11-second bout b/w The Rock and Eric Rowan), with 3 of those being on the pre-show, while WrestleMania 31 had 9 total bouts and WrestleMania XXX only had 8.

The following is the rumored WWE WrestleMania 33 Match Card:-

Singles Match for the WWE Universal Championship:
”The Icon” Goldberg (c) vs. ”The Beast” Brock Lesnar

Singles Match for the WWE Championship:
”The Eater of Worlds” Bray Wyatt (c) vs. ”The Viper” Randy Orton

Fatal-4-Way Match for the RAW Women’s Championship:
”The Queen” Charlotte (c) vs. Bayley vs. ”The Boss” Sasha Banks vs. Nia Jax

Singles Match:
”The Big Dog” Roman Reigns vs. ”The Deadman” The Undertaker

The competitors for the WWE Championship are

  • John Cena (C)
  • Dean Ambrose
  • The Miz
  • Bray Wyatt
  • Baron Corbin
  • AJ Styles

Now remember this is not going to be AJ Styles rematch for the gold as he made it clear to the Smackdown live commissioner Shane Mcmahon. Randy Orton is not a part of the list as he is guaranteed to main event Wrestlemania 33.

A lot of hush hush there on part of the creatives but they can’t help it but to do it that way as their boss is not so wise.

]]> WWE News and Rumors: Shawn Michaels comments on Dream Match versus A.J. Styles /wwe-news-and-rumors-shawn-michaels-comments-on-dream-match-versus-a-j-styles/ Mon, 23 Jan 2017 08:58:46 +0000 /?p=2475 Read more]]> ”The Heart Break Kid” Shawn Michaels recently gave an interview to ESPN to promote his upcoming flick, The Resurrection of Gavin Stone. During the interview, he gave his thoughts on the topic of WWE Champion ”The Phenomenal” A.J. Styles wanting a dream match with him.

Styles has spoken on numerous occasions about ‘’H-B-Shizzle’’ being one of his all-time favorites and his intention to compete in the squared circle with him.

Last year in October, ‘’The Phenomenal One’’ had also tweeted out a fan-made poster which featured him and Shawn Michaels squaring off at the 2017 Royal Rumble:-

https://twitter.com/AJStylesOrg/status/789193575737073668
Asked about his reaction to the tweet, ”The WWE Hall of Famer” said that the reigning WWE Champion is not only a talented chap but also knows their work goes beyond that as well.

This is what Shawn Michaels had to say:

“My reaction was that he’s a bright young man. I think he’s not only gifted in the ring, but he understands that the work doesn’t stop there. It’s about creating talk and constantly being the topic of conversation. He understands that.”

Michaels also tried to explain why the match between him and A.J. Styles is not possible by pitting an example of Michael Jordan and LeBron James, two NBA stars from different eras, were unable to play against each other despite wanting to do so.

‘Mr WrestleMania’ was quoted as saying this:

“I have no doubt that LeBron James would’ve loved to have played against Michael Jordan, but that simply is not going to happen. But I’ve got to tell you that I appreciate the free press. I’m a guy that has absolutely no problem flying under the radar and not being talked about. My name has been out there for the last three months thanks to him doing that.”

]]> WWE News and Rumors: Kenny Omega confirms he’s a free agent; is he WWE bound? /wwe-news-and-rumors-kenny-omega-confirms-hes-a-free-agent-is-he-wwe-bound/ Thu, 19 Jan 2017 08:43:33 +0000 /?p=2429 Read more]]> SO, KENNY OMEGA IS THE HOTTEST FREE AGENT IN PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING!

”The Cleaner” Kenny Omega appeared on the Taz Show yesterday and revealed that he’s a free-agent. He said that his New Japan contract runs out at the end of January and he is now evaluating his future. The former IWGP Intercontinental Champion further added that although he wasn’t actively talking to promotions, he was accepting feelers from other wrestling promotions/companies before taking the next step. Omega said that it wasn’t necessarily the money that would sway his mind because what he really wants to do is change the business of professional wrestling (aka sports-entertainment) in his own way.

According to Omega’s own words, it seemed like WWE have been among the promotions who have contacted him for a deal.

The Elite and Bullet Club member Kenny Omega was/is on WWE’s radar for quite awhile as per various reports from the past couple of years. It’s a well known fact.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5pfdz0ECag

In the main event of Wrestle Kingdom 11, Kenny Omega went toe-to-toe against ”The Rainmaker” Kazuchika Okada in an attempt to dethrone Okada and capture the IWGP Heavyweight Championship in a match that got appreciated by wrestling fans and critics across the globe and was rated 6 stars out of 5 by Dave Meltzer. Omega after ending up on the losing end, he tweeted out a few days later that he was leaving ‘The Land of the Rising Sun’ Japan and is considering his future options, which sent WWE and Wrestling fans alike in a frenzy and immediately rumors surfaced across social media platforms and beyond of a possible Royal Rumble appearance.

During the interview, Kenny Omega added that WWE would be more accepting of a talent like himself and they would now use him to his full potential, while in the past this may not have been the notion. Omega further said that he doesn’t want to sign with WWE for a payday but, he wanted to do things that made wrestling fans happy and bring new fans into the world of pro wrestling. Finally, he signed off saying that if WWE felt the same way about him and his vision, he would seriously consider an offer from WWE.

WWE Hall of Famer ”JR” Jim Ross was asked on Twitter about the possibility of inducting Kurt Angle into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2017. JR mentioned that he will be open to do it if asked, but also noted that it is a long shot.

The 1996 Olympic Gold Medalist is a TNA Hall of Famer, now he’ll be rightfully enshrined in the WWE Hall of Fame this year.

Rusev has portrayed the anti-American persona on WWE TV since his debut, with rivalries against the likes of John Cena, Roman Reigns and Jack Swagger.

Kurt Angle is an Olympic Gold Medalist, former WWE Champion, former World Heavyweight Champion, Intercontinental Champion, and King of the Ring.

A Possible showdown at Mania 33?

Kurt Angle will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame the night before WrestleMania, and Rusev is not locked up in a fued against anyone at the moment, so, this banter could set up a possible match between the two superstars at the grandest stage of them all, WrestleMania 33.
