Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for April 8, 2026

A brawl between Will Ospreay and Jon Moxley turns into a beatdown for The Death Riders (Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, PAC, Daniel Garcia, "The Problem" Marina Shafir) only for Alex Windsor (Will Ospreay's real life fiancée) and members of United Empire (Francisco Akira, Great-O-Khan, Callum Newman, Henare) to show up from out of a black SUV to make it a five-on-five brawl. The brawl makes its way to the ring, where Callum Newman brawls with until Marina Shafir gets to him and chokes him out. Great-O-Khan, Henare and Francisco Akira soon make it to the ring, and after United Empire gets the upper hand, Moxley and Ospreay go at it again. Moxley gets Ospreay in a sleeper hold, but Ospreay rolls out and Callum Neuman hits Moxley with a double foot stomp from the top rope. The Death Riders retreat through the crowd. Ospreay tells Moxley that he used his head like he told him to, then says that they are not done and that in twenty minutes, they will create some chaos in Canada when United Empire faces The Death Riders.

Backstage, we hear from Don Callis, who says that "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher is injured and out of action, which has thrown a wrench in his family's plans for the TNT Championship, which is now vacated and will now be up for grabs in a Casino Gauntlet Match at Dynasty. He says that his plans for the title are now off as a result, but he has a pivot that will blow everyone's minds. As for "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada and "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita and when they will fight, he admits he enjoys when people do not get along, but states that he calls the shots before mentioning that Takeshita will be in action with Andrade el Idolo and Mark Davis against Darby Allin, Bandido and "Jungle" Jack Perry. He hopes that his family wins so he can take the money and go out on the town and party like it is 1984.

The Don Callis Family ("The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita, Andrade el Idolo, Mark Davis) beat Darby Allin, Bandido and "Jungle" Jack Perry in a trios match. (Bandido replaces Brody King, who was originally scheduled for the match but is replaced due to personal reasons.) Early in the match, Andrade heads to the back, and Darby Allin grabs the microphone and calls him out, telling him to get back here, stop playing games, and stop being "Don Callis' little bitch." Andrade comes back with Don Callis, who guests on commentary for the rest of the match. After the match, Takeshita and Andrade stomp on Jack Perry. Bandido also gets stomped on, and Andrade points at a poster for Dynasty while confronting Darby before kicking him in the groin. Don Callis then gouges Jack Perry's eyes before The Young Bucks show up and give Davis and Takeshita a beatdown. Don Callis then gouges Jack Perry's eyes before The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) show up and give Davis and Takeshita a beatdown. El Clon, Hechicero and Lance Archer rush into the ring, but they get easily dispatched by The Young Bucks before they hit the EVP-Trigger on Mark Davis. "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada shows up before The Young Bucks can hit the Meltzer Driver on Davis and stops the move cold, then he and Takeshita stomp The Young Bucks before confronting and shoving each other. This soon leads to the both of them exchanging blows, and the entire Don Callis Family has to break up the brawl. The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz, Dezmond Xavier, Myron Reed) soon show up and dive over the top rope to take out the entire family, save for Okada, who just points and laughs at Takeshita. The Rascalz and The Young Bucks get the last word when Myron Reed leaps over the top rope and takes out Okada.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Doc Samson. Doc Samson says that MJF is getting into Kenny Omega's head and mentions Kenny Omega's diverticulitis and surgery, then says Kenny Omega is cleared by him and his surgeon and is in the best shape of his life.

Willow Nightingale retains the TBS Championship against Queen Aminata (returning from a 161-day injury absence). Hikaru Shida is seen watching from the crowd during the match.

We see a video package for MJF in anticipation of Kenny Omega vs. MJF for the AEW World Championship at Dynasty.

Chris Jericho heads to the ring. In his hands in a black clipboard with a purple AEW logo on the back, with purple sides. Jericho says he meant it when he said he was home, then says he will make it official by signing his new AEW contract in the ring, just 100 miles away from where he made his professional wrestling debut at the Moose Hall in Ponoka, Alberta in 1990. He says that he and All Elite Wrestling have made history since 2019 and that he has taken risks since he became part of it - some of them more successful than others - and that all he cares about is building AEW because he loves pro wrestling and he loves the company. Before Jericho can sign the contract, however, The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona) suddenly shows up. Ricochet announces that "Canada freakin' sucks" before stating that The Demand come in peace, and that Bishop Kaun would have already pulled the trigger if they did not. He then tells Ricochet to do them a favor and "just don't," telling him not to sign the contract as he has been rusty after being gone and signing with Fozzy for a year, which he says is "probably how [Jericho] got his abs back." Ricochet admits that Jericho has made history in AEW and has accomplished much, then says that AEW's attendance and ratings are up because of "the rise of Ricochet." He then says he is here to tell Jericho all of this because of how he respects him, and that he is speaking for everyone here when he says that nobody wants him in AEW. He then tells Jericho to pack it up, get out of his ring, get back on his cruise ship and never come back before he gets himself hurt, poking his hat into Jericho's chest on the last request. Jericho says "Wow...you really are bald," then says he respects Ricochet before stating "I really don't give a shit what you think." He signs the contract, which lets him pick his return opponent for Dynasty, and Jericho admits that while he could choose anybody, he has some things to do and decisions to make, which is all done in a second. He then removes the black part of the clipboard to reveal the word "Jericho," then says Ricochet made the list for being bald, coming out in a fancy sweatsuit and being around when he is in need of an opponent. Ricochet then becomes Jericho's opponent at Dynasty.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews The Don Callis Family. Don Callis announces that at Dynasty, Andrade el Idolo will not just beat Darby Allin, but put him in the dirt and earn a World title shot. He says that with "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher hurt, he has an even bigger match: The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) against "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita and "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada. Takeshita does not want to do this, but Don Callis says he is the only coach here and that they need to come together for Fletcher and beat The Young Bucks. Takeshita agrees on the condition that he gets a match with Okada for the International Championship. Callis says that match will happen at Double or Nothing if they can work together for one night, get along like Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, and beat The Young Bucks. As Takeshita and Okada shake hands at Callis' behest, Okada says he is Jordan while Takeshita is Pippen, and this almost starts a brawl.

Tommaso Ciampa beats Mascara Dorada to enter the Casino Gauntlet Match for the TNT Championship at Dynasty at #1.

Backstage, we hear from The Dogs (Gabe Kidd, Clark Connors, David Finlay). David Finlay says they may have lost last week on Collision, but they did not get beaten, and we see Clark Connors attacking Orange Cassidy and Roderick Strong. Connors says there were only two of them last week, but the gang is back together now. Gabe Kidd says that The Conglomeration will be taken out and that they will come for Mistico and JetSpeed ("The Jet" Kevin Knight and "Speedball" Mike Bailey) as well as their gold.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews "The Toxic Spider" Thekla. Thekla says she does not want to hear about Jamie Hayter being champion one more time - threatening to take Lexy for a nice seafood dinner before dragging her to a strip club and breaking all of her fingers if she does - then tells Hayter that the game has changed. She says that Hayter was only champion because she was not here, and that as long as she is AEW Women's World Champion, she will never be champion again. Thekla says she took Hayter out first because she was the easiest, and that Hayter is coming back because she is "the dumbest bitch alive." He then says at Dynasty, Hayter will be "the dumbest bitch dead."

Adam Copeland and Christian Cage head to the ring. Copeland says their feud with FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) started all over pettiness, with FTR saying that were in his shadow and were nothing more than "glorified henchmen" for him. Copeland says this is the hand of reality slapping their faces. Copeland says he will not shrink himself to fit into FTR's world and that FTR are not big enough for his, and that he and Christian will reclaim their place at the top of the mountain and become the fans' AEW World Tag Team Champions. Christian tells FTR to sit down and shut their mouths wherever they are so he can conduct his business. He says FTR has been busy as they have not only pissed off Copeland, but the entire country of Canada. He says that as "everybody's favorite father figure," FTR have been so naughty that he has been forced to pay a visit to both of their mothers, and by that, he means that he "banged them both." He also says that he will visit Stokely Hathaway's mother as well, and when he does, he will do it as one-half of the tag team champions. FTR and Stokely Hathaway show up, but all of a sudden, Christian and Copeland are attacked from behind by RPG Vice (Rocky "Azucar" Romero and Trent Beretta) , who have come out of the crowd. This leads to a 4-on-2 beatdown. Christian Cage briefly gets the upper hand, but he gets shoved by Cash Wheeler into one of the tag team titles, which is held by Stokely. Meanwhile, RPG Vice drive a metal folding chair into Copeland's head. Dax then wraps a chair around Christian's left hand, and Stokely steals Christian's Rolex before Cash stomps the chair from the top rope, injuring Christian's left arm.

Backstage, Darby Allin says that despite seemingly caring about nothing, he cares too much, and says that he has to win the big one and be AEW World Champion. He says that Andrade el Idolo does not truly understand what he has gotten himself into, and that he needs this win more than anything in a world that says he is not enough when he has always been enough.

United Empire (Will Ospreay, Francisco Akira, Callum Newman, Henare) beat The Death Riders (Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, PAC, Daniel Garcia) in Chaos in Canada. After the match, Will Ospreay goes after Jon Moxley to try to end his career, but the rest of The Death Riders save Moxley.

We see a video package for Kenny Omega in anticipation of Kenny Omega vs. MJF for the AEW World Championship at Dynasty.

Tony Schiavone introduces Kenny Omega to the ring. Kenny Omega talks about how he drove a car 14 hours from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to take part in the city's independent scene 25 years ago. He also mentions that "Speedball" Mike Bailey stopped him from playing into MJF's hands and ruining their World Championship match, and says that his nicknames are not just words, but things people have said about him. He considers those nicknames a responsibility and a weight upon his shoulders when he wrestles, and says that MJF runs his mouth but cannot deliver while he himself takes wrestling and recreates its image. It should have been MJF, not him, who should have gotten mad because all MJF can do is talk, because he cannot do what Omega and a few others can do, but he was the one who lost his cool. Omega says it was all on him to save the legacy of AEW of being where the best can wrestle the best, then says it is not his responsibility and legacy alone and that it belongs to the fans as well. He says that the fans deserve a champion who wears the World Championship with pride and goes down as one of the greatest of all time, and that it will not be MJF if he feels as good as he is and turns his weaknesses into strengths. Omega says it has gone from getting better and recovering to getting stronger, and Omega promises that he will take the World Championship and right the wrongs that MJF has committed in AEW. MJF shows up and takes Omega's words as thought that he is better than him, saying it makes sense for Omega and the fans to talk himself up, because deep down, they are all "scared shitless" that this might be Omega's last shot at the AEW World Championship. MJF says it will be Omega's last shot and that the clock is ticking on Omega's career, then brings up Omega saying he lost in their last match because he was at 75%. He wants to know what Omega's excuse will be when he beats him again. MJF admits he loves more than anything that in their match at Dynasty, Omega will find out that he is not on his level and that the fans' god will fall while the devil will rise to the throne where he belongs. Omega says he learns a little more about MJF every week that they speak like this, and that the AEW World Championship means a lot to MJF to the point that he would shake the challenger's hand, as this is the last time they can meet respectfully like men. Kenny Omega offers to shake MJF's hand and let bygones be bygones before an incredible main event, and MJF tosses the microphone away only to refuse, turn around and go for a cheap shot and eat a knee before he can land it. Omega then removes the Dynamite Diamond Ring from MJF's ring finger and says he saw this coming a mile away, then says that their match will not be like it was up until now and that it will end with him bidding the fans adieu.

Generation NXT - NXT recap for April 7, 2026

Tony D'Angelo heads to the ring to start tonight's show. D'Angelo says a lot of the fans have been with him since the beginning, and that he barely recognize the kid he was when he began. He now says he is not just a man, but the man, and he is now NXT Champion. He also says that he is the very first Grand Slam Champion in NXT history and that he has wanted this since he walked through the door, and while some choices have been better than others, he would not change a thing. D'Angelo then says his hands have an iron grip on the NXT title and not even "All Ego" Ethan Page, Ricky Saints or Joe Hendry can take it from him. Joe Hendry shows up and heads to the ring. Hendry gives credit where credit is due to D'Angelo and proclaims him to be the better man, then says it was on one night where they both had to deal with Ethan and Saints, and ponders if D'Angelo would still be champion if not for them. Ethan shows up and says that if anyone deserved a one-on-one title shot, it was him, and that if it were one-on-one, he would have beaten Hendry; instead, D'Angelo is champion. Saints then makes his way out to the ring. Saints reminds Ethan that he attacked him first and tells Ethan not to blame his shortcomings on him, and says that if Ethan had put his ego to the side, he would be two-time champion. D'Angelo tells all three men to get in line and that the result will be the same as it was Saturday. Suddenly, DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin) shows up from out of the crowd and attack all four men in the ring while security rushes in as the show goes to a commercial break. (During the break, the announce table gets destroyed, and it also takes all the referees and the locker room to break up the brawl.)

Backstage, after the break, General Manager Robert Stone puts Tony D'Angelo, Joe Hendry, "All Ego" Ethan Page and Ricky Saints in an eight-man match with DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin) later in the night. Sol Ruca then heads to the ring for the next match.

Izzi Dame beats Sol Ruca after Niko Vance saves Izzi Dame on the outside while Zaria hits Sol Ruca with a Spear as Shawn Spears distracts the referee. After the match, Zaria tells Sol Ruca that she says when this ends between them.

In backstage footage from earlier today, The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake) meet with Blake Monroe and gift Blake her very own custom NXT Women's North American Championship. General Manager Robert Stone says Blake cannot self-proclaim to be champion, then puts Blake Monroe and a Vanity Project member of her choice in a mixed tag match with Tatum Paxley and Shiloh Hill. Blake picks Jackson Drake as her tag partner.

Backstage, Dorian Van Dux, Elio LaFleur, "Super" Sean Legacy and Elio LaFleur are in the locker room. LaFleur mentions that Dorian Van Dux and EK Prosper will be in the WWE Speed Championship tournament. Dorian Van Dux says he has been waiting for this moment, but EK Proposer says he is ready for the tournament and that he will be watching tonight's tournament match.

Keanu Carver beats Josh Briggs and Jasper Troy in a Triple Threat Match.

Backstage, Tatum Paxley tells Shiloh Hill that she thought she would be done with Blake Monroe after Saturday, but Blake just cannot stop. Shiloh Hill looks forward to punching Jackson Drake in the face. Ricky Saints shows up and mocks them for laughing during their conversation, but Shiloh Hill tells him to concentrate on his match with DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin), as they already gave him a beating earlier tonight.

Joe Hendry, Tony D'Angelo, Ricky Saints and "All Ego" Ethan Page beat DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, Osiris Griffin). At the end of the match, D'Angelo takes out Saquon Shugars, but Ethan hits D'Angelo with a pump kick to get the pin and the win. After the match, D'Angelo takes Ethan out.

On NXT Focus, we hear from Jaida Parker, who talks about how she beat Kelani Jordan at Stand & Deliver only for Kelani to attack her backstage afterwards. Jaida says she is who she says she is, and brags about how she has made Kelani's life a living hell with a brawl at the Performance Center and a confrontation at Kelani's car before their match next week.

Lexis King beats Chazz "Starboy" Hall to advance in the WWE Speed Championship Tournament. (Chazz "Starboy" Hall is formerly known as Starboy Charlie, and is the current men's WWE ID Champion.)

Backstage, General Manager Robert Stone meets with Myles Borne when Tony D'Angelo shows up. Borne leaves, and D'Angelo says he wants "All Ego" Ethan Page. Stone says he can make that happen, then D'Angelo has a staredown with Keanu Carver.

Jackson Drake and Blake Monroe beat Tatum Paxley and Shiloh Hill after Tatum goes to counter the Glamour Shot with Cemetery Drive only to hit Drake with a spinning wheel kick. That allows Blake Monroe to hit the Glamour Shot for the pin and the win.

Backstage, Sarah Schreiber interviews General Manager Robert Stone. Stone announces that the two-week special NXT Revenge starts next week. Tony D'Angelo will defend the NXT Championship against "All Ego" Ethan Page, Sol Ruca and Zaria will square off in a Last Woman Standing Match, Joe Hendry will be in concert, Kali Armstrong will make her NXT debut, and there will be a new WWE Speed Champion.

We see a vignette for Kali Armstrong's NXT debut.

Lola Vice heads to the ring for a championship celebration. Lola Vice talks about she became the first Cuban-American champion in WWE history and how she has waited so long to become champion. She also talks about how she was the biggest signing of 2022 and how WWE gave her a media tour. She talks about how she thought she was ready to become champion and expected to go straight to the top only to get humbled, and how she headed to AAA to get even more experience and take "Vice City" worldwide. Lola Vice says that she is undeniable and that earning something means more than having something handed to her, then Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, Lainey Reid) shows up. Jacy Jayne congratulates Lola before telling her to enjoy this moment, as it is the last win she will ever get off of her. She says that Lola has only set her up to become a record-breaking three-time champion. Jacy says Lola was only at Stand & Deliver on a technicality, then says she ran the women's division for almost ten months. General Manager Robert Stone shows up and gives Jacy her championship rematch at NXT Revenge. Lola tells Jacy that she will knock her out again, then Lainey and Fallon attack her from behind. Lola fights back and sends Fatal Influence running to end the show.

Here are the highlights from tonight's show!

Raw Deal - Raw recap for April 6, 2026

CM Punk makes his way to the ring to start tonight's show. Punk says he has a history of things that happened and things that should have happened in the building. He mentions Paul Boesch and states that he loves to hear about "the old-timers" and how they would operate in times like this. Punk mentions that Roman Reigns is not here tonight, and talks about how Roman powerbombed him through the announce table with the help of The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) and strutted out like the king of the world, and he hoped to get his revenge and he got his receipt. He mentions that he put Roman through the announce table before mentioning that Roman hates him, which means that he has Roman where he wants him to be. Punk says being hated by losers is the price to pay for not being one of them. Punk says he gets why Roman hates him, then says the feeling is mutual as he states that they have the tools to reach the top. He then says his tools are self-made and sharpened to a point due to the work he has done while Roman's tools are store-bought, hand-delivered and plastic. He says he used to be too young to understand, but he is now too hold to give a damn, and says TKO has Roman represent WWE in the ring because he is fake, manufactured and saccharine while he is dangerous. Punk says he can do numerous TV appearances and still make it to the show while Roman uses them as a crutch and an excuse not to show up, and when he does show up, he shows up late and leaves early with his chest puffed up like he is The Rock. Punk says that The Rock was a Hollywood superstar just like Roman was a champion, but that dream is over because this is wrestling and not cinema. Punk says he does not have a cousin on the board of directors and a bunch of yes men who shield him from the truth, and that he has earned everything he was worked for while Roman ate dog food from a weird old man. He says that weird old man treated him like a dog for years, but he had "F-U money" and walked out on him, and he cannot be controlled. Punk says Roman can brag about how many times he has been at WrestleMania, yet if anyone talked about how Roman sucked at the first eight of them. Punk says he cannot be blackballed, because he can blow up a bridge and survive because he knows how to swim. Punk says that "everyone is getting it tonight," and even calls out Pat McAfee for thinking he can come to his business and run his mouth when he cashed a check that his narrow ass cannot cash. He tells McAfee to tell his agent who shoehorned him into the show to lower the ticket prices, as he will be damned if someone who kicked a football for a living talked to him about selling tickets and putting asses in seats, as McAfee has a receipt coming to him. Punk then demands the ticket prices be lowered so that whole families can see him standing on Roman Reigns' throat at WrestleMania. Afterwards, Punk spends some time with the first four rows opposite the hard cam.

We see footage of LA Knight showing up unexpectedly on iShowSpeed's recent livestream and attacking him. We then see iShowSpeed backstage looking for Danhausen, and he soon finds him. iShowSpeed begs for Danhausen to lift the curse, and Danhausen wants his mountain as payment for undoing the curse. When General Manager Adam Pearce shows up, Danhausen disappears, and Pearce tells iShowSpeed he should go home and let The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) and The Vision (Logan Paul and Austin Theory) hash things out. The Vision shows up, and Theory tells iShowSpeed to listen to them instead. iShowSpeed is about to leave, but Logan tells him that the only safe space is with them, and The Vision bring iShowSpeed to the ring as Pearce says this is a terrible idea.

Austin Theory beats LA Knight after Knight goes after iShowSpeed when Logan Paul shoves iShowSpeed into him. iShowSpeed runs away from Knight only for The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) to show up. iShowSpeed jumps over Knight and tries to run away, but gets caught. Logan Paul distracts Knight, and when Knight knocks Logan Paul off the apron, Theory pins Knight with a schoolkid pin for the win. After the match, LA Knight and The Usos confronts iShowSpeed, then The Usos go for the 1D on iShowSpeed only for Logan Paul to make the save. LA Knight calls for General Manager Adam Pearce before The Vision (Logan Paul and Austin Theory) and iShowSpeed can leave, and proposes a six-man tag match between the team of himself and The Usos and the team of iShowSpeed and The Vision. Pearce tells iShowSpeed he should have stayed home, but now he is going to WrestleMania, and it is official.

Grayson Waller and Kofi Kingston are seen arguing in the background as Finn Balor makes his way to the ring for the next match.

Finn Balor vs. JD McDonagh ends before it begins thanks to a cheap shot from behind by "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio. Finn Balor is able to fend them off, but Dominik blasts Finn Balor with the AAA Mega Championship before attacking him with a metal folding chair.

We see a brief video package for AJ Lee. We then see Michael Cole's interview with AJ Lee from earlier today. As AJ Lee says it is surreal to be back at WrestleMania, however, Becky Lynch interrupts the interview to insult Michael Cole. Michael says he does not need this and leaves, and this becomes a confrontation between AJ Lee and Becky. Becky says she remembered AJ Lee's final WrestleMania, and mentioned that AJ Lee came off as fake and saw her as her replacement. She tells AJ Lee that she will not have home field advantage at WrestleMania, because WrestleMania is her home. AJ Lee dares Becky to keep underestimating her, then says she is proud of Becky Lynch and everything she has done for the locker room. She then says that none of it happened without her, because she shattered the glass ceiling and knocked the walls down for her. She says that WWE kept calling her and that the fans never forgot her, then says she is not only her favorite wrestler's favorite wrestler, but also her daughter's favorite wrestler. Becky is angry after AJ Lee says she will see her at WrestleMania and leaves.

Bayley beats Lash Legend. During the match, Nia Jax trips Bayley on the outside, and when Nia slams Lyra Valkyria into the apron when Lyra goes after her, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss show up and attack Nia. Nia takes Charlotte, Alexa and Nia out with a splash to the outside, but Lash Legend catches up with Bayley when Bayley heads back to the top rope. Lash hits a Superplex, but Lyra grabs Lash by the feet and keep them held down so that Bayley can get the pin and the win.

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans, rapper Bun B, and WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry are seen in the crowd.

We see a preview of Hulk Hogan: Real American, a brand-new documentary about Hulk Hogan coming to Netflix on April 22nd.

Seth "Freakin'" Rollins heads to the ring. Rollins says he has been gone for six months and has been waiting to hear the fans again, and the fans sing his theme before Rollins declares that he is back. He then talks about his match with Gunther at WrestleMania, admitting that there is no long history or personal issue between the two of them before concluding that Gunther has entered a business relationship with "The Oracle" Paul Heyman. Rollins says he has two missions: take back the World Heavyweight Championship, and kill The Vision ("The Oracle" Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, "Big" Bronson Reed, Logan Paul, Austin Theory). He mentions Logan Paul and Austin Theory's blood feud with The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso), saying it will not end well, then mentions that Bron Breakker and "Big" Bronson Reed are on the shelf and that Brock Lesnar is on a silver platter for Oba Femi to Heyman's chagrin thanks to him. Rollins says that if Gunther is acting as a business partner and a shield for Heyman, then it has become business for Gunther and personal for him. All of a sudden, Gunther gets in the ring, but Rollins counters Gunther's sleeper with one of his own. Gunther avoids The Stomp, but throws Rollins over the announce table only for Rollins to hit him with the ground and pound. Officials have to separate both men, and that allows Gunther to boot Rollins in the face before he is forced to the back. Backstage, Gunther notices Heyman and smiles. Heyman says he does not know why Gunther did what he did at Madison Square Garden, as there is nothing personal between him and Rollins, then says he owes him a very big "thank you." Gunther says he is glad it is personal for Rollins, as it is also personal for him for the reasons he is thinking of. Gunther and Heyman then shake hands, then Gunther says Heyman owes him so much more than a very big "thank you."

We hear from Stephanie Vaquer, who says that Liv Morgan is not as clever as she thinks she is. She then says that if Liv Morgan wants to play dirty, she will play dirty. Vaquer says Liv talks a lot but says nothing, claims to run Raw, and handles her daddy issues with a pathetic excuse of a man who is jealous of his own father's success. Vaquer says she inspires girls everywhere to forge their own paths. She says that if Liv says it is on sight, then Liv will not see her coming, and at WrestleMania, she will not get her hands on the Women's World Championship, as she will take Liv where nobody can follow.

We see a brief scene of what looks like young dancers on chairs, similar to a music video. It only lasts a few seconds before we see Je'Von Evans' entrance.

Penta, Dragon Lee and Je'Von Evans beat Los Americanos (El Grande Americano II, Rayo Americano, Bravo Americano) in a six-man tag match. After the match, Rey Mysterio heads to the ring and says it is an honor to see Penta's career take off as WWE Intercontinental Championship, stating that his ladder match in WrestleMania has the potential to be one of the best in history. He says that he missed last year's WrestleMania due to injury, then says that he has spoken with General Manager Adam Pearce regarding this year's WrestleMania. He says that the ladder match is missing one more person: himself. Penta then says to Rey Mysterio "Let's make history."

We hear from Asuka. She says that she and Iyo Sky were once a family, but Iyo tried to take everything rom her. She says that Iyo destroyed what they had and tore their family apart even after everything she did for her and Kairi Sane. She never expected Iyo to thank her, as she did everything for her out of love. Now she realizes she loved Iyo too much, as she took advantage of her kindness and used her, and now, she must pay. Asuka says she will always be Iyo's senpai, and as senpai, she will teach her one last painful lesson in the ring and take everything from her.

Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky beat "Michin" Mia Yim and B-Fab after Iyo pins B-Fab with a surprise victory roll. After the match, Michin and B-Fab gang up on Iyo Sky as Jade Cargill directs traffic, and Rhea Ripley shows up as Michin gets in the ring with a shinai and cleans house only to be laid out with a pump kick by Cargill. Michin and B-Fab hold Rhea down in the corner, and Rhea dares Cargill to hit her before Cargill grabs the shinai and striking Iyo Sky instead while Rhea is forced to watch. Cargill then hits Iyo Sky with Jaded before she, Michin and B-Fab leave.

We hear from Finn Balor. He says that he brought the beating from earlier tonight on himself, and hoped that he would do things the easy way. Unfortunately, he taught "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh how to play dirty, then says playtime is over and that Dominik is about to see a side of him that he thought he would never come back. He says that side of him is back, and at WrestleMania, it is coming for Dominik. Backstage, The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, JD McDonagh, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, Raquel Rodriguez) briefly talk about Finn Balor before mentioning their plans to bring new championship gold to the faction. Dominik and McDonagh leave, then Roxanne Perez meets up with Liv and Raquel. Raquel leaves, then Liv thanks Roxanne for her help before stating there is an elephant in the room with Roxanne joining at Finn Balor's behest. As Liv said that what happened to Finn Balor had to be done, she is suddenly shoved into Roxanne and thrown into the nearby television by Stephanie Vaquer.

WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque and General Manager Adam Pearce head to the ring for the contract signing between Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar for their WrestleMania match. After the commercial break, Pearce says that the match will be a true clash between two titans before Paul Heyman suddenly shows up and hypes the match up as "one of the most anticipated WrestleMania matches in decades, if not ever." Heyman then introduces Brock Lesnar as "the conqueror of the ruler," stating that the ruler cannot measure up. Heyman and Lesnar then head to the ring, then Oba Femi is introduced. Oba Femi then makes his way to the ring. Oba stares down Lesnar from the apron, and Lesnar charges at Oba as he enters the ring. This leads to a brawl on the outside, and Pearce quickly calls for security as both men brawl. Both men are separated in opposite corners, and security has to go through hell to separate both men again as one keeps lunging at the other with a splash in the corner.

Championship Gold - Championship Wrestling recap for April 5, 2026

Zeda Zhang introduces The OXP. The OXP hypes the crowd up, then gets interrupted by Jordan Cruz and The Epic. Jordan Cruz says that he is glad The OXP is here, as Championship Wrestling needs stars, then says that everyone actually came to see him, not The OXP, because he is the main attraction and hot commodity and this is his house. Cruz then demands that The OXP wipe his feet at the door and show him respects, and while he can be a giving star, he can take, and if The OXP even so much as thinks of taking his title, he will stomp that idea until it is dust and ash. The OXP takes this as an opportunity to face Jordan Cruz for the UWN World Championship, as nothing would make him happier than to see him go back home and cry after ending up flat on his back looking at the lights. Cruz tosses his title at The OXP, but The OXP ducks the clothesline and nearly kicks Jordan Cruz's head off. Cruz immediately retreats, and The Epic ends up being the only thing between The OXP and Jordan Cruz.

Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for April 3, 2026

Randy Orton heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Orton asks the fans what they want to talk about, much like "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes, then says that it is no secret that St. Louis, Missouri is his hometown and has been for years, and that the next time he is here, he will be world champion. Orton then says he is becoming world champion again for him and for his family, who he considers his real home, and that Cody Rhodes will be heading home from WrestleMania empty-handed. He says that Cody gave him his blessing and told him that he needed to be "The Viper" and be the best version of himself, then says that the voices are talking to Cody and that Stephanie McMahon was right when she said Cody cannot beat him. He says that Cody is not a killer that and that there is no putting back to bed what Cody has awoken. Suddenly, Cody Rhodes shows up and heads to the ring. Cody and Orton brawl, and Cody quickly gets the momentum. All of a sudden, Pat McAfee gets in the ring and kicks Cody in the groin, revealing himself to be the one that Orton talked to on the phone. Orton then grabs a chair and hits Cody with it, then McAfee makes fun of the local sports team as General Manager Nick Aldis shows up with officials and states that it is a tough night for St. Louis. McAfee says that a month ago, he was asked when he would return WWE, and he said that he thought the business passed him by and that it was "absolute shit." He says Orton called him and told him it went in a direction that some people did not like. He says that the older fans who put WWE on their back to take it where it is now feel forgotten about as Orton chokes Cody with the chair, and says he has to watch two 5'5" guys wrestle each other in 45-minute Iron Man Matches for ten weeks straight for no rhyme or reason while Randy Orton is around. He says that gorilla positions keeps circlejerking themselves, that tickets are WrestleMania are somehow still available, and SmackDown has a puppet for a champion after its worst-rated episode of the year while Orton is around, and tells Orton to kick Cody's ass. Orton attacks Cody as McAfee says he has been the one on the phone telling Orton to kill everything, as the business Cody is leading is terrible and that Orton is going to "save the fucking business." Randy places the Undisputed WWE Championship on Cody before whispering into Cody's ear and leaving with Pat McAfee. Officials check on Cody.

Backstage, Matt Cardona is met by Aleister Black and Zelina Vega. Aleister says that Randy Orton went back to being himself and that the universe is right again, and Zelina says that Cardona cannot accept that.

Solo says he is okay with this, then tells him not to mess this up.

Backstage, Rhea Ripley tells Iyo Sky that she owes her one before Cathy Kelley interviews her. Rhea says that Jade Cargill has proven that she cannot do this one on her own, and that she did not know she had a back-up plan. She says Cargill has followers while she has friends, and Iyo tells Rhea she will always have her back. Rhea says she will always have Iyo's back and that she will walk out of WrestleMania as champion.

Uncle Howdy beats Tama Tonga when Solo Sikoa shows up and almost hits Uncle Howdy with the lantern only to get caught by the referee. This leads to Solo arguing with Tama followed by Uncle Howdy hitting Tama Tonga for the win. After the match, Solo and Tama argue, and Tama takes the lantern, saying that Solo does not need this. He lets Howdy take the lantern and holds Solo back, telling Solo to let the lantern go.

Backstage, Kit Wilson and The Miz - the latter looking sweaty and having had a rough day - are worried about Danhausen's curse when they run into R-Truth, who is setting up a new clubhouse. Miz says R-Truth takes nothing seriously and challenges R-Truth to inspire someone, saying he has never earned anything in WWE. R-Truth takes this as a challenge for the WWE tag team championships and goes to talk to General Manager Nick Aldis.

We hear from Jacob Fatu, who says that is just him and Drew McIntyre one-on-one in an unsanctioned match at WrestleMania. He says his life has been one big rollercoaster, and one is forced into the gutter, one is forced to be part of the environmental and that it all comes down to survival. He says that every decision he made and every day he was locked up brought him to this moment, and in this match, there are no rules, no one to stop him, no one to break it up and no one to tell him what to do. Jacob says that at WrestleMania, McIntyre is in his world, and he will see if McIntyre can make it out.

Backstage, Sami Zayn meets with General Manager Nick Aldis. He finds out that he has pyro, then apologizes for last week. Aldis says it is not necessary, saying that Sami did what he had to, then tells him to go out to the ring and talk to the fans before Trick Williams' theme plays. Rapper Lil Yachty accompanies Trick to the ring, and Trick celebrates having his first WrestleMania match before stating that since the guests are rolling out, it was only right to bring out Lil Yachty. Lil Yachty says that WrestleMania is for legends in the making like Trick, and Trick mentions that the two of them have history before stating that he will do what it takes to win the United States title and that he will "take no lip from no Gingerbread Man." He then says to hit Sami Zayn's pyro, because Trick Williams runs SmackDown. Sami Zayn shows up and says Trick Williams is celebrating before he has won and that pageantry has never really been his thing. He says that he is focused on winning, then says that 50,000 signs will be pointed at the ring at WrestleMania and that all the presentation, pageantry and celebration will not save him from one of the best to ever do it in the ring. Sami tells Trick that he will "humble [his] ass" at WrestleMania, and Trick tells Lil Yachty that "Ginger Snap is pretty upset" and fails to realize that he only has the United States Championship and is going to WrestleMania because of him. Carmelo Hayes shows up and heads to the ring and says he cannot sit back and watch things go down like this, then mentions his history with Trick, saying that he will spin the block and give Trick his receipt. Carmelo says that the end of their match does not sit well with him and that he carried the United States Championship on his back only for Sami to win it in the fashion that he did, and that the fans want him, not Sami, at WrestleMania. Carmelo tells Sami to listen to the fans and give him his rematch. Sami agrees with Carmelo and that he deserves a rematch and does not want to take anything from him, and that while he is sorry that this happened at his expense, he will have to wait until after WrestleMania. Sami acknowledges that Trick Williams got involved in their match, and says the same thing happened to him regarding Cody Rhodes. He says this may have worked in his favor this time around, but he is not happy about it. Carmelo tells Sami to do the right thing. Sami tells Carmelo that he has his rematch tonight. If Carmelo wins, he gets Trick Williams; if he wins, he gets Trick, and this is the last he hears of this. Carmelo accepts and heads to the back. Trick laughs and thanks Sami for finally saving some time, and Sami clotheslines Trick out of the ring.

Backstage, Solo Sikoa confronts Tama Tonga for returning the lantern to Uncle Howdy. Tama says the lantern tore them apart and that it is time to get back to business and take all the titles. Solo agrees, then says that once they finish The Wyatt Sicks (Uncle Howdy, Erick Rowan, Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis, Nikki Cross), they will get back to business. Tama looks at the MFT's (Tonga Loa, Talla Tonga, JC Mateo) while Solo looks at Tama with a side eye.

Aleister Black beats Matt Cardona.

Backstage, Cathy Kelley interviews Bayley and Lyra Valkyria. Bayley says that losing last year's opportunity sucked, but she has made a career out of fighting with her back against the wall, and they will win the women's tag titles on Monday after Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss get a taste of what will happen at WrestleMania. Lyra Valkyria says that if Charlotte and Alexa had gone through what they did, they would not be a team. Lyra says this is more than about friendship or championship gold, but about making it iup to Bayley and making the last year worth it.

Backstage, R-Truth speaks with Candice LeRae and Johnny Gargano. R-Truth admits that he thought Gargano was dead when he found him on the floor, but Gargano says that he is still alive and about to win the North American Championship before he and Candice leave. Damian Priest then shows up wanting to know why they are facing The Miz and Kit Wilson with their titles on the line, but R-Truth says that Asuka cursed them. Priest reminds him that he is really talking about Danhausen, but R-Truth insists that it is Asuka who did it and that it will not only be like taking candy from a baby, but that St. Louis, Missouri gets to see that it "It's 'Wepa' Time."

We hear from Drew McIntyre. He says that his family was about to see him walk out as Undisputed WWE Champion, but the title was stolen from him again, this time by Jacob Fatu. He says that Jacob has made excuses, justifications and lies as well as a criminal and a thief who has the potential to change but never will because he is a convict. He says Jacob's family made his life hell and that Jacob is the worst of all to the point that he cannot outrun his past. McIntyre says he will prove Jacob "guilty as charged" and show who Jacob really is.

It is announced that Nikki Bella has suffered an ankle injury last week and that she will hopefully get better by WrestleMania 42.

Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss beat Bayley and Lyra Valkyria. After the match, both teams are laid out by The Irresistible Forces (Nia Jax and Lash Legend).

Danhausen shows up with his jar of teeth, and offers to accompany them to the ring to show them how to be him. Kit Wilson calls Danhausen toxic, but Danhausen offers to undo the curse. The Miz tells Danhausen to stay away from the ring, then Danhausen disappears the moment Miz looks away.

Rapper Sexxy Red is seen in the crowd.

Damian Priest and R-Truth retain the WWE Tag Team Championships against Kit Wilson and The Miz. During the match, Danhausen shows up and tries to tag out The Miz, but both the referee and The Miz are having none of it. R-Truth tags in Danhausen, and The Miz tells Danhausen to get out. Danhausen tries to curse The Miz, but The Miz uses referee Dan Engler as a human shield and Engler gets cursed instead. The Miz is able to hit R-Truth with a Skull Crushing Finale soon after, but Engler's wrist suddenly hurts as he makes the three count. This allows Priest to tag in and hit South of Heaven on the Miz to retain, with referee Dan Engler making the count with his other hand. After the match, "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes suddenly shows up, hits Kit Wilson with a Cross Rhodes, then addresses Pat McAfee. He says this is like The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) talking about the third man, except it was Disco Inferno instead of Hulk Hogan. Rhodes says that McAfee will get his receipt and that he and everyone who represents him can kiss his ass, saying that firing him "went well the last time," then mentions everyone telling him he must go to a dark place and become a bad guy to beat Randy Orton. Cody admits he does not know if he can do it anymore, as he has two children and his dream job, and says that while he was wrestling current greats in WWE, they were also wrestling him. He says that he is finally hearing those voices in his head, then says that the fans do not want to hear what they have to say.

Trick Williams and rapper Lil Yachty show up to watch the next match from ringside.

Eddie states that when he becomes a three-time TNA World Champion, The System will run TNA, and Santana tells Eddie that he does not believe his own words and that if he did, he would fight him in the ring right now. Cedric tells Santana to take a breath and take solace in the fact that he will not be the only person losing a championship at Rebellion, then proclaims that he will beat Leon Slater to become X-Division Champion. Leon Slater heads to the ring and tells Cedric that beating him will not be that easy, as he beat him once nearly nine months ago and he can beat him again. Cedric says that was then, and this is now. Cedric says he no longer cares about making the fans happy and that he only cares about The System, who will soon take the World and X-Division titles and will soon have all the gold. Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, John Skyler, Jason Hotch, Tasha Steelz, Special Agent Zero) shows up, and Mustafa Ali mentions that so many promises are being thrown around before stating that Rebellion will also be Order 4's night when he becomes the next International Champion.

The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) head to the ring. Matt Hardy says that Sacrifice was a revelation and a realization, as The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) betrayed them exactly as they predicted they would do. He says they would have been great friends and a great faction and made money under different circumstances. As Matt Hardy describes Dutch's bashing the back of his head against the wall, he almost turns into "Broken" Matt Hardy before stating that The Hardys will snuff The Righteous out. Jeff Hardy says The Righteous made a mistake and that the talk of respect and brotherhood is over, and Matt says that all they will talk about now is apocalyptic consequences. The Righteous show up, and Vincent says they are still a great team as well as family, and insists that what they did was not to them, but for them, and that they removed what was in the way. He says love requires sacrifice, and Dutch states that they do not cling to the kind and gentle. Dutch says that Matt Hardy is stronger than death, and that The Hardys are not a sacrifice, but an offering. Matt Hardy offers to kick The Righteous' asses right now, and Vincent says that the pressure in Matt's chest is not pain or anger, but Matt's old self trying to survive something greater. Vincent says The Hardys are running away from themselves and have something they want, which is not money, not the tag titles, but something forgotten yet still breathing. As Matt Hardy dares The Righteous to get in the ring and fight them right now, Vincent says that is a good idea, but not tonight. He then states the calendar has many ways of aligning, and Matt wants The Hardys vs. The Righteous next week. Dutch loves the idea, but requests that this must be done "Hardy style" and "in the way of extreme." Jeff Hardy likes the idea, and says it will not just be a tag team title match, but also a tag team tables match.

He says that Santana's "bruised little ego" is in control and not Santana himself, but Santana says Eddie is talking tough for somebody on the other side of the guardrail and dares Eddie to get in the ring and say those words to him like a man. Eddie teases doing that, but then decides not to, saying he has already beaten Santana once tonight and that he will do it again at Rebellion and walk out as World Champion while Santana is known as the man who could not hold it together on the biggest night of his life.

Jon Moxley and Will Ospreay are suddenly seen brawling backstage. Wheeler Yuta pulls Ospreay off Moxley only to get attacked, too, and security has to get involved while Marina Shafir checks on Moxley.

MJF and Kenny Omega head to the ring for their contract signing. MJF signs the contract first, then passes it off to Kenny Omega, who does the same. MJF compliments Omega's signature, then Omega stops him, saying that he knows what MJF is going to do and that it will not work this time and go the way that he has planned. Omega says that everyone is here to watch the best wrestle, not to see MJF, and that everyone stood behind him because they wanted to see something better than MJF. He also admits he may be the god of professional wrestler if he is the antithesis to MJF and that he will be the one to strike MJF and ensure he never becomes World Champion again. MJF says he could sit and talk about how Omega's bones are aging as fast as Canadian bagged milk or how Kota Ibushi is one strong gust away from retirement, but that would be too easy, and he wants to talk about what Omega doesn't: Omega's sudden want for the world title. MJF mentions that Omega's diverticulitis is to the point that Omega's organs can explode any time, any point, anywhere. He says that Omega's time is on a fast, winding clock to cement his legacy, and when he is done, his fans will be embarassed of him. MJF says that Omega's fans will realize that Omega is nothing more than a false idol who is better off dead. Omega topples the table, then "Speedball" Mike Bailey stops Omega and says MJF is trying to get Omega to strike him to get out of defending the AEW World Championship. He calls MJF a coward and says he should be thanking Omega, stating that with no Omega, there is no MJF. Speedball says that respect is earned and that Omega is a respectable living legend while MJF is only a living legend in his own mind, and that some of MJF's ego would be lessened if he kicked him in the head in the finest country of Earth. Omega says that while his organs are not what they used to be and while he is missing 24 inches of intestines, he would rather miss those than miss his balls. MJF accepts Speedball's challenge, but warns Speedball that he will make an example out of him before calling Canada a dump and proclaiming that the United States is all that matters. He tells Speedball that he is not wrestling the usual MJF, but an American hero.

Kenny Omega, Brody King and "Jungle" Jack Perry beat The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona) in a trios match.

Backstage, Renee Paquette announces that Adam Copeland and Christian Cage are arriving.

Christian almost hits Renee, but Copeland stops him.

Backstage, Adam Copeland and Christian Cage find FTR's (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) locker room, but find Trent Beretta and Rocky "Azcuar" Romero instead.

Will Ospreay beats PAC after pinning PAC while still in the Brutalizer while PAC is rolling him away from the ropes. After the match, PAC attacks Ospreay, but Ospreay hits Hidden Blade. Daniel Garcia and Wheeler Yuta get in the ring and stomp Ospreay while Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir show up with a metal folding chair. Claudio Castagnoli shows up to wrap the chair around Ospreay's head, and Moxley stops Claudio from stomping the chair to speak to Ospreay. Moxley asks Ospreay how he thought this would go, and asks if either he of Ospreay put Ospreay in this position before advising Ospreay to use his head next time or lose it permanently. Moxley says this is not personal for him, and tells Ospreay not to make it personal.

The Brawling Birds (Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor) and Mina Shirakawa beat Triangle of Madness (Julia Hart, Skye Blue, "The Toxic Spider" Thekla) after Jamie Hayter stops Thekla from using brass knuckles during the match.

Darby Allin heads to the ring and calls out MJF. He says that MJF is playing games with The Don Callis Family because he is scared and knows that he is willing to die for the AEW World Championship. He says that he does not care who beats MJF as long as someone ends his world title run. Darby calls out MJF, but gets The Don Callis Family, and Callis says MJF has paid his family a lot of money and has asked him to deliver a message. MJF has stated that if Darby can defeat a hand-picked member of The Don Callis Family, he will grant Darby a title shot after he beats Kenny Omega. Callis picks Andrade to face Darby, then sics his family on Darby, saying MJF paid him to do that as well. Lance Archer gets smacked with a skateboard, and Brody King and "Jungle" Jack Perry show up to help Darby out. All three men then stare each other down, then Kenny Omega shows up. Darby says something to Omega on his way out, then Omega high-fives the fans in the front row before guesting on commentary for the next match.

MJF beats "Speedball" Mike Bailey with a Tombstone Piledriver on the apron followed by the Heatseeker. After the match, MJF attacks Speedball, but Omega quickly gets in the ring, causing MJF to quickly retreat. Speedball is able to get back to his feet.
