News update from Monday
Bryan and I will be back with Wrestling Observer Radio tonight. You can now watch it live on video by subscribing to our video site. We’ll be talking about Steve Austin, Raw and breaking news. You can also ask questions live during the show.
In terms of Steve Austin and WrestleMania, there’s smoke in that fire and discussion going on. How they will turn out is unknown, Austin looks in great shape at the moment.
Raw is in Louisville, KY tonight. Seth Rollins vs. Finn Balor for the US Title has been announced. They announced the match days ago, but today it was announced for the title. Also Matt Riddle vs. Chad Gable. As of this morning, 6,900 tickets have been sold out, so a solid crowd. The last time Raw was in the building was a year ago and the paid show was close to 4k so the situation is stronger. The head-to-head soccer game is the Washington Commanders vs. Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles are the last undefeated team remaining in the NFL, 8-0.
We are looking for reports from Louisville with main event matches and any dark segments to [email protected]
