Independent group EVOLVE had the honour of hosting the first wrestling show on WrestleMania weekend, with a Friday evening event at Eddie Deen’s Ranch – a venue that the WWNlive promotions took over for the weekend. Fortunately, I’d ordered the live show plus the “on demand” offering for all of WWNlive’s events this weekend; as we’ll cover in another article, the group had a lot of issues streaming, leading to the group offering freebies as a make-good.

WrestleMania weekend officially starts in the ring tonight, and BackBodyDrop.com – in conjunction with Wrestling-Online.com – brought you live coverage of an early candidate for show-of-the-year: NXT Takeover in Dallas, TX.
With the majority of the wrestling world watching in Texas, New Japan continued their track to next weekend’s Invasion Attack special with another show from Korakuen Hall.

With WrestleMania only a matter of days away now, it’s only fitting that this week’s Random Reviews takes a look at some of the lesser-remembered matches that have taken place on the “Showcase of the Immortals”.
With WrestleMania only hours away, we should probably go back through the history of WrestleMania and pluck out some of the main events and more memorable matches from the prior 31 events. Of course, all of these are currently available on the WWE Network, so there’ll be no YouTube links here!
Whilst the Western Wrestling World is focussed on next weekend’s WrestleMania, New Japan is building up to their own spring special, with April’s Invasion Attack event. As with pretty much every New Japan show, they have a road to get there… and Sunday March 27 was no different, as they returned to Korakuen Hall.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ll know that it’s WrestleMania Season. In the past decade, WrestleMania Weekend has become something of a magnet for independent promotions to “piggyback” on the biggest show of the year.
