-- Main Event:
- EC3 vs. Breeze:
WOWWWWW. I like Tyler and all, but damn. I expected more for EC3.
- LHP vs. Jinder/Singhs:
Basically a showcase for LHP.
LHP did well for the time they had. I'm sure they'd rather be doing more than this silliness.
Cody applied to trademark the name Dusty Rhodes. I would think WWE would have something to say about that.
Conrad Thompson has applied to trademark Jim Crockett Promotions and 10 Pounds of Gold. The latter refers to the NWA World Championship. We'll see how far he gets with those ideas.
NXT UK's Mark Andrews has been pulled from an Ontario wrestling event on March 24. Wolfgang will be replacing him. It's unknown why the change was made.
Smackdown Live will begin with Kofi Kingston's gauntlet match. I have feeling that match is going to be a really long performance for Kofi to show he's got the endurance and perseverance to be a major player.
- Also, The Miz will respond to Shane McMahon on the show.
Andy Kaufman and Arn Anderson now have Pro Wrestling Tees stores. Kaufman's store is authorized by his estate. That's pretty cool.
The Young Bucks won the AAA Tag Team Championship over the Lucha Bros in a surprise challenge to close Rey de Reyes 2019. The Lucha Bros had just won the championship in the previous match. I like AEW's tactic of popping up at other events to build hype for Double or Nothing.
- Jeff Jarrett competed at the event as well, teaming with Killer Kross and La Mascara in a loss to Psycho Clown, Mamba, and Maximo inside a cage. So, Jarrett is still wrestling with his current capacity in WWE Creative. It could be a case of him finishing up what he's already been booked for.
At NXT's March 16 Florida live event:
- Kacy Catanzaro lost to Deonna Purrazzo in Kacy's first live event appearance since Royal Rumble AXXESS.
- Sam Shaw debuted in a loss to Fabian Aichner.
- Saurav Gurjar lost to Mansoor Al-Shehail in Gurjar's first live event appearance since January 19.
At OTT Scrappermania 5 in Ireland:
- NXT UK's Zack Gibson teamed with Charlie Sterling and Sha Samuels in a loss to More Than Hype
- Hurricane Helms teamed with The Angel Cruzers to defeat Justy, Sammy D, and Team Prick .So Helms can still wrestle outside of WWE, too.
- British Strong Style of Pete Dunne, Trent Seven, and Tyler Bate won the promotion's tag team title in a losers leave town match, so they'll presumably continue wrestling there on top of NXT UK.
- NXT UK's Jordan Devlin defeated WALTER to become the new OTT World Champion. We'll see if that means anything for WALTER's future there.
At Smackdown Live's March 16 Iowa live event:
- Nikki Cross defeated Sonya Deville by DQ, leading to Nikki Cross and Carmella defeating Sonya Deville and Lacey Evans. So Nikki and Lacey are on Smackdown Live this weekend, and those pairings are being tested out. Mandy Rose lost to Asuka later in the show, so she didn't team with Deville here.
- Alexander Wolfe competed at his first WWE live event since February 4, teaming with Eric Young in a loss to New Day's Big E and Kofi Kingston. SAnitY has been working Smackdown Live dark matches, and Young has teamed with Dain on live events lately, but Wolfe hasn't wrestled on live events in that time period.
At EVOLVE 124 in New York:
- NXT's Adrian Jaoude defeated Wheeler Yuta
- Velveteen Dream and the Street Profits defeated Shane Strickland, Eddie Kingston, and Joe Gacy
