Backstage, Athena wants to say that she is excited t, but she is disrespected and disgearded despite her accomplishments as a champion. Athena then says that she will have a ROH Women's Championship Proving Ground match against Janai Kai, who did not last even three minutes against her in their last meeting, and that when it comes to being champion, it is about maintaining her dominance.

Before the next match, "Smart" Mark Sterling says that he is the most famous professional wrestling lawyer, and tonight, he represents Beef. Sterling says that Beef may be "more of a freezer burned Hamburger Helper" than a choice cut, but he is a world class chef and that he will make him into more of a choice meal that the fans will say "bon appetit" too. He then has the fans say "Athletes rule" only to be told they suck.
Beef beats "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard after Tony Nese and Ariya Daviari attack Menard behind the referee's back. After the match, Nese and Daviari attack Menard and demand Beef join in, which Beef does after Daivari slaps him.

Taven says it is Matthew and Michael now, then says they have plateaued and that they need an upper hand in the form of an intelligence that cannot be found on Earth: artificial intelligence. Bennett is convinced that AI will make them so much money that it is ridiculous as it becomes apparent that The Kingdom have delegated so many decisions to it and used it to make so many things apparently easier, including writing prompts for T-shirt idea. Taven says that they are now "a computerized Kingdom," and Bennett says that they are being enhanced, not replaced, by AI.
Before the next match, Tehuti Miles asks the fans if they have considered taking part in the wrestling business, saying that the fans try hard to get noticed while he is "the most sought-out talent in pro wrestling history. He says the fans chase opportunity while opportunity chases him and ends up in his hands while every room he enters changes, then says the fans chant for people who look, think and fail like them, then says the fans will never be him because he is too pretty for mercy and too perfect for defeat, and that all of this is just too easy.
Tehuti Miles beats Dante Casanova. After the match, Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, "Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty, "The Captain" Shawn Dean, "Bad News and Tattoos" Carlie Bravo, Anthony Ogogo, Trish Adora, Christyana XO) shows up, and Tehuti Miles joins them.

Action Andretti beats LJ Cleary.
Backstage, we hear from Eddie Kingston, Ortiz and Mance Warner. Mance says that if RPG Vice (Rocky "Azucar" Romero and Trent Beretta) want violence, they will get violence. Ortiz says they will go back to a place he does not want to go back to, dust off his cargo pants, put on his Timberlands and stick his foot up their asses. Eddie Kingston mentions the eighteen months that he was out of action and how his fingers went numb after he was dropped on his head and how he thought about surgery until he stooped. He says that if RPG Vice want to take from him, he will take from them. He warns RPG Vice not to play this game, as they know what he can do, and if they do then, then they can team up with another member of The Don Callis Family, stating that if they take from him, the three of them will take from RPG Vice.
Serpentico and The Colons (Eddie and Orlando Colon) beat Brandon Cutler, Terry Yaki and Jay Lucas in a six-man tag match.

Sterling announces that the newest action figure in Jazwares' AEW line is Sterling himself, which releases on August 7th. Dalton Castle and The Outrunners think about what they could do with the action figure before walking off with it, much to Sterling's chagrin.
MxM Collection (Mansoor and Mason Madden) beat Aaron Solo and Nick Comoroto. After the match, Ian Riccaboni interviews MxM Collection in the ring. Mason Madden says it is great to be back where he played professional football, as he would later move south to Orlando. Mansoor says that MxM Collection has proved that ROH stands for "Runway of Honor" and that as the most fabulous tag team in ROH, they look forward to winning the most fashionable accessory of them all: the ROH World Tag Team Championships.
Backstage, we hear from Action Andretti, who says that it is another night and another win for him and why he is called "The Sight to See."

After the match, Garrison turns on Vance by hitting him with a discus forearm before blaming him for The Frat House not winning in over a year, then says The Frat House is sick of boozing, losing and Vance himself.

Dexter Lumis beats Tehuti Miles with the Anaconda Vice.
We hear from Adam Cole, who tells Velveteen Dream that he does not deserve a shot at the NXT Championship and that he is only concerned about reality, as there is nobody who deserves a shot at the title.

Velveteen Dream shows up. He says it is typical of Adam Cole to no-show him tonight, and says that Cole fancies himself as a mastermind and a leader when he knows him as the last remaining champion in The Undisputed Era and the greatest NXT Champion of all time.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for April 13, 2020
Drew McIntyre shows up to start tonight's show. Drew thanks the fans for allowing him and the rest of the WWE Superstars into their living room as well as their support, as the Internet can sometimes be pretty negative; however, it has been so positive since he became WWE Champion and it has been "surreal." He also goes on to say that his match with Lesnar where he won the WWE Championship was also "surreal," as was his match twenty minutes later against Big Show. He says that these back-to-back victories set the tone of him being a fighting champion, and if anyone deserves an opportunity at the title, they will get it. Suddenly, Andrade shows up. Zelina Vega, who is also with him, introduces Andrade as "the real champion of Raw." McIntyre says he knows who Andrade is, then Zelina congratulates McIntyre on having two WrestleMania moments in the same night. She then says that Andrade had an injury that robbed him of his, and says it would be a shame if someone injured McIntyre and took the WWE Championship from him. McIntyre says he remembers what happened last time they clashed, and if Andrade wants a match, he's got it. Andrade says that last time, he took his title and took him out, and tonight, "no more Senor nice guy."
Drew McIntyre vs. Andrade is made official for later tonight.

Becky Lynch shows up. Becky says it has been a couple of weeks since she beat "The Queen of Spades" Shayna Baszler, and says that their battle was a battle of the mind, as the more Baszler tore through the women's roster, the sillier she became. She says that the only person who can get close enough to the queen is the joker, as the joker poses no threat. She says that a person born to bully will never beat a person born to survive everything, then addresses the Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match, says she always has a plan and that she will shock the world one more time against the winner.
Backstage, Charly Caruso interviews Andrade and Zelina Vega. Zelina Vega says that Andrade has had a dominant title run against some of the best WWE has had to offer, and that Andrade dethroned Drew McIntyre in their last battle.

Rey says that 2010 is a year in his career that stands out due to his World Heavyweight Championship reign, which was ended when Kane cashed in his Money In The Bank contract on him. He knows how dangerous the contract is, and in order to get it, he must defeat Murphy first. He admits Murphy is a good opponent, but says that Murphy doesn't want it as badly as he does and that he will be the one cashing in the contract.

Generation NXT - NXT recap for March 25, 2020
Tonight's show has no crowd and has essential personnel only. It is also announced that NXT TakeOver: Tampa Bay has officially been cancelled and that the show's matches will take place in the coming weeks.
Tyler Breeze beats Austin Theory when Theory gets too cocky and records himself going for a big move on Breeze's smartphone in an effort to send a message to Breeze's future kids. As Theory has Breeze up for a move, Breeze breaks free and hits the Beauty Shot for the win, then tells his future kids in the video message that he's still got it.
Killian Dain beats the debuting Tehuti Miles.
Cameron Grimes beats "The Premier Athlete" Tony Nese.
Before the next match, it is revealed that Xia Li has been attacked backstage. Xia Li is then officially replaced by a returning Io Shirai as per General Manager William Regal.

We see a vignette for Dexter Lumis.
Keith Lee shows up. Lee says that he is now aware that Damien Priest attacked him, but he assumed that Dominik Dijakovic attacked him and mocked him by holding the North American Championship. As he states that he owes Dijakovic an apology, Dijakovic shows up. Dijakovic says he does not give a damn about his apology; only his North American Championship, and while he has more respect for him than Priest does, he took food off his family's plate. Damian Priest shows up and says that his eyes are on the North American title because it will give him more money, more women, more fame and more legacy, and for his name to live forever, he must win the title. Lee tells Priest says that who he attacked means he does not live forever, and he is standing right here. Priest then pulls out a baton and says that she shouldn't be standing anymore. Dijakovic goes after Priest, but Lee pulls Dijakovic away and attacks Priest himself. Dijakovic takes out both men with a swanton over the top rope.
We hear from Adam Cole, who is currently on vacation. He says that he has been thinking about his altercation with Velveteen Dream, then says there is no reason for him to be flustered after what he has done in NXT. He says that Velveteen Dream has done nothing to earn a shot at him and the NXT Championship and that The Undisputed Era wants a piece of him, especially Bobby Fish, and says that it is "dream over" for Velveteen Dream when Fish is done with him.
Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch beat Shane Thorne and Brendan Vink with a crossface from Burch to Vink as Lorcan puts Thorne in a knee bar.
Candice LeRae beats Kayden Carter with the Garga-No Escape to qualify for the NXT Women's Championship #1 Contender's Ladder Match.
Matt Riddle beats Roderick Strong. After the match, two indentical-looking men lay Riddle out. All of a sudden, a man named Malcolm Bivens shows up and says he has taken advantage of Riddle being alone to introduce the future of the tag team division. (Bivens is best known for his time in Ring of Honor as Stokely Hathaway.)
Next week: Velveteen Dream vs. Boby Fish! A Second Chance Gauntlet Match for the NXT Women's Championship #1 Contender's Ladder Match! Dominik Dijakovic vs. Damian Priest vs. Keith Lee for the NXT North American Championship!
Triple H is in the ring. He states that there has never been a more intense rivalry in NXT than between Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano. Not long afterwards, Tommaso Ciampa shows up. Ciampa says he has been in NXT for five years, and that everything that can be said and done has been said and done. After Ciampa demands that Gargano come to the ring, Triple H says that there will be no physicality tonight. Gargano shows up and says he will not get into the ring with Ciampa after he attacked him last week, and says that it is all Ciampa's fault the Performance Center was damaged. Triple H brings up Gargano superkicking the referee, and says if it weren't for him, they would be fire. Triple H brings up Gargano superkicking the referee, and says if it weren't for him, they would be fired. He then demands Gargano get in the ring, which he does, after Triple H tells Ciampa not to touch him. Triple H says that Ciampa and Gargano's rivalry has gone far enough, and while there will come a point where everything will be put aside and both men will realize there is more to life than what's in the ring, he gets what is going on and how it all should end. Gargano says it should have all ended last year, but Ciampa broke his neck and he was not the one to break it. Ciampa says bigger things are happening in his own world and while he broke his neck, he agrees that this must end. Triple H says that this must end on the biggest stage, but Gargano disagrees, saying all they need is a referee and a ring. After Gargano says he will make Ciampa realize what kind of monster he is, Triple H asks when they can end it. Triple H says that in two weeks, he will find an empty building, put a ring in it, and have a referee in there to say it is over, and when it is over, it is over and it is done. He says that if it continues, neither man will be in NXT. Both men argue over who NXT will carry on without and who will win in two weeks, then the vignette with the clocks, ruined buildings and vultures appears on the TitanTron. Killer Kross' face is seen on the vignette this time. This ends the show.
