Raw tonight was supposed to be in the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, Pa... but with the Kung Flu now running amok across the US and large gatherings being cancelled quicker than G The Tiger Fan's date night plans... it'll now happen at a crowd-less WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Fla.

Only 2 segments are scheduled for tonight's show...

Stone Cold to come on and celebrate #316Day (since it's March 16... see what they did there?)

Undertaker & AJ Styles are set to sign their Wrestlemania (that's still a thing?) match contract... which I'm sure will be done gentlemanly and end with nothing more than an elbow bump (since no handshakes)

seems like all WWE shows for the time being will be held like this... while AEW Dynamite will be held in Jacksonville in much the same manner until this pandemic finally ends

British wrestling publication Wrestletalk held a "No Fans Monday" event earlier today to raise funds for those involved in independent wrestling who are undoubtedly losing events/bookings left and right b/c of the Kung Flu... and while you may not know the vast majority of the wrestlers/people involved in this show... it was a fun little event

You can watch it Free on YouTube

main event did have 2 names you probably do know... a good ole fashioned match based around domestic violence as real-life BF/GF Will Ospreay & Bea Priestly battled each other in the final match of the event (Ospreay was 1 of the driving forces behind the event happening in the 1st place)

oh... and I went down a YouTube rabbit hole the other night... Joe Hendry (you may know him if you watch Impact) has videos of all the special entrance themes he sang mocking his opponents... some were pretty funny (most were covers of popular songs)... Hendry is a Scottish wrestler and the videos of his entrances all came from the Scottish promotion ICW which Finn Balor spent time growing up in and Drew McIntyre was a champion of

Austin 3:16 says stay inside and wash your hands!

Edge tweeted he’s en route to the show yesterday so there might be a segment with Orton.

WWE should have taken the bag from the Arabs.

Supposedly Raw is showing the entire men's Rumble match so that's gonna be about an hour of the show. I guess we will have to get used to empty studio wrestling because its gonna be like this for a while now. I expect Raw to show more ppv matches as well.

I will enjoy the men's rumble match replay MUCH, MUCH more than the tag team Elimination Chamber match that was replayed on SD

this year's Rumble match was pretty epic

They should do a countdown or best Mania matches and show two or three of them on these empty studio shows every night until WM.


I’d love to see a Monster’s Ball replay or TLC from WM17

and his grand total of 1 match in NXT (vs. Tyler Breeze)


although he did do a number of matches in WCW when WCW & NJPW had a good working relationship

heck... there were "WCW Japanese Supershows" on PPV back in the day... which was all from the precursor of what is nowaday Wrestle Kingdom

Sadly I will be late to our 3:16 party but be rest assured that the trucks of Natty are in place and as we spray it everywhere it will sanitize the Saloon Platoon’s clubhouse!

They are lined up out the backdoor!

But don’t worry, due to concerns about the plague more than 3 ring rats are not allowed in a room at once! Safety first!!

Triple H not giving a frick while shitting on Cole, Rullo, and Graves on commentary was amazing. Him being super serious at the beginning of the show and near the end was so funny compared to him trolling on commentary.

I genuinely do feel bad for Bray and Drew though. Worked all those years to finally have their first big WM moments and then some a-hole in China fricks a bar and now the biggest moment of your career takes place in front of 5 cameramen and 3 lighting guys.

Bray challenged Cena to a bar deathmatch if WM doesn't happen. I hope WWE figures out a way to do that.
