The two opened Raw this week and Heyman began by saying Seth Rollins necessitated this appearance by Brock. Heyman then began talking about Brock\u2019s alleged issues with smaller wrestlers that Seth had brought up previously. Heyman then moved on to talk about Seth and why in the world he\u2019d want to fight Drew McIntyre tonight. Drew\u2019s music hit and he walked out on the stage. He said it\u2019s about time he gets the respect he deserves. Drew then told Brock to have his advocate find him a new opponent for WrestleMania because he was going to brutalize Seth and he won\u2019t make it to WM. Seth ran out with a chair and hit Drew with it a number of times, maybe a dozen or more. Seth then turned his attention towards the ring where Brock stood unimpressed. As Seth climbed into the ring, Brock climbed out and Heyman kept talking with Brock to ensure he didn\u2019t enter the ring to face off with Seth. In the Main event, Seth and Drew had a very physical match, as Rollins went for The Stomp, Brock\u2019s music hit distracting Seth. As Seth stared at Lesnar, McIntyre hit him with a Claymore Kick for the win.<\/li>\n<li>Kurt Angle named his WrestleMania opponent tonight. He thanked the McMahon\u2019s for allowing him to pick his opponent for his retirement match, then said he had so many people he\u2019d like to face, but only one he wanted to beat. He then said nothing would make him happier than making Baron Corbin tap out at WrestleMania so he can retire as the happiest man in the world. Kurt then took on Chad Gable in his \u201cretirement tour\u201d of matches on the way to WrestleMania. The fans were not thrilled with Corbin being the announcement, there was no reaction when Kurt said it, and later in the night when Corbin wrestled Apollo Crews, the fans could be heard chanting \u201cWe want Cena.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Smackdown Live<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Kofi Kingston gets tricked by Vince McMahon again. Before the Gauntlet match, Daniel Bryan addressed the crowd to talk about Kofi. He started by questioning the fact that he\u2019s being held back by the McMahons. He said Kofi was chosen for an unearned title shot out of the tag division and he\u2019s a B+ player, which is why the fans like him because B+ is good enough for them. In the Gauntlet match itself, Kofi pinned four of his five known opponents, Rowan actually got himself disqualified very early into his match with Kofi when he grabbed a chair and hit Kofi with it. After Kofi rolled up Randy for the fifth and final win, The New Day came out to celebrate with him. Big E and Xavier Woods, along with a large group of other baby faces on the roster, were shown multiple times throughout the Gauntlet match cheering Kofi on, showing that the locker room is behind him. Vince McMahon interrupted the celebration by The New Day to congratulate Kofi, but also let him know he had one more opponent in the Gauntlet match. Big E and Woods were irate and Daniel Bryan would come out and eventually get the pin after a running knee to defeat Kofi.<\/li>\n<li>Becky and Charlotte face off again, this time on the \u201cKevin Owens Show.\u201d Owens read off multiple examples off the trash talk between Becky, Charlotte, and Ronda from social media, but finished by saying the fans don\u2019t want to hear them talk anymore. As Owens left the ring he said fans want to see them fight. Charlotte made a comment, Owens asked Becky for her response, and Becky punched Charlotte prompting the brawl. Referees and other backstage people struggled to keep them apart, but the brawl continued. As they continued the brawl, the show moved on to the next segment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>\u2022Listen to the latest Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Post-Show \u2013 Smackdown Post-Show<\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">PWTorch editor Wade Keller is joined by Ring Rust Radio&#8217;s Mike Chiari as they discuss WWE Smackdown with live callers first, then an on-site correspondent from Indianapolis, Ind. followed by a mailbag segment.

I couldn\u2019t (and still can\u2019t) believe that WWE is going to make Kurt Angle\u2019s retirement match be against Baron Corbin. No offense to Corbin, but he is not worthy of that spot at all. Sure, he gets booed, but come on, this is just hilarious. On a positive note, I\u2019m glad WWE built in a bathroom break for me; I\u2019m going to need it with this 7+ hour adventure.<\/p>\n<p>Just looking back at some other legends and their last matches, usually they get a premier opponent they finish their careers against &#8211; until now! Shawn Michaels\u2019 last match (before last year) was against Undertaker. Stone Cold Steve Austin\u2019s final match was with The Rock. Ric Flair\u2019s final match was with Shawn Michaels. Kurt Angle\u2019s final match as of now is against Baron Corbin. One clearly does not fit in here.<\/p>\n<p>The disappointment is partially the fans&#8217; fault, but it\u2019s also WWE\u2019s fault for teasing Kurt\u2019s announcement for a week, allowing the fans a chance to let their imaginations run wild. The most popular option I heard was John Cena, and I think that would\u2019ve been great. I guess it\u2019s still possible to do, and I\u2019m as sick of the recent swerves as everyone else, but I\u2019d love Vince to come out and say Corbin isn\u2019t box office enough and announce Cena as Angle\u2019s actual opponent.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not the most rabid Kurt Angle fan in the world, but he was fantastic throughout his career, and I just feel like his final match being against Baron Corbin isn\u2019t the respect he deserves. Is WWE going to allow John Cena\u2019s final match to be against No Way Jose? Absolutely not, and while I know Corbin is a few rungs on the ladder above No Way Jose, I still don\u2019t think he\u2019s at a level to justify him being Angle\u2019s final match in WWE.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; I know that the stories have been told for a few weeks &#8211; even months &#8211; now, but the idea that Vince is just taking away the things people rightfully earn continues to eat away at me.<\/strong> First, he takes away Becky\u2019s (Royal Rumble earned) WrestleMania match because he thinks she has a bad attitude. Then, he takes away Kofi\u2019s match at Fastlane because \u201cit\u2019s his obligation to the fans and stakeholders to provide the biggest box office attraction possible.\u201d He\u2019s completely undermining the idea of this being a sport where people compete and earn title shots. I know he doesn\u2019t like the word wrestling, but &#8220;sports entertainment&#8221; still contains the word &#8220;sports!&#8221; Imagine if Roger Goodell were to take away a Super Bowl appearance because a smaller market team like Kansas City or Indianapolis won their Conference Championship game simply because they weren\u2019t the most profitable matchup. Or what if he took away a team\u2019s Super Bowl appearance because the coach or fans have a bad attitude? It\u2019s just moronic. WWE is showing fans once again that wins and losses don\u2019t matter at all, until the one time a year when they do. Remember, Becky Lynch\u2019s run to the top started with her quietly going on a long winning streak, and before WWE knew it, she\u2019d been undefeated for six months and had more fan support than ever.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s worse than the ridiculousness of him arbitrarily taking away these matches that they both earned is the way that they \u201ctriumphantly\u201d earn back what is rightfully theirs to begin with! Becky Lynch \u201cearned back\u201d her WrestleMania match by having Ronda Rousey interfere and get Charlotte disqualified to give Becky back her already earned opportunity. That\u2019s the triumphant moment for the underdog baby face? Now, we haven\u2019t seen the resolution to Kofi\u2019s quest to WrestleMania, but it\u2019s not going to be a triumphant moment either. How can it be? He earned the opportunity by pinning Daniel Bryan previously and in the past. That\u2019s been enough, but now it isn\u2019t. Kofi may earn back his opportunity, but again, that was already his, so getting back what you\u2019re owed isn&#8217;t triumph; that\u2019s justice.<\/p>\n<p>The other issue I have is in both situations Vince doesn\u2019t get his comeuppance. Just another way the baby face wrestler didn\u2019t triumphantly win. Sure, Becky got her match back, but nothing happened to Vince. Not even a \u201ctake that\u201d type of moment. It\u2019s still possible with Kofi, but highly unlikely. It\u2019s as though Vince just says,\u201coh, okay, fine,\u201d and that\u2019s the glorious triumph. We the fans who \u201care the authority\u201d can actually get what we\u2019ve been rooting for. Take that, Vince!<\/p>\n<p>WWE is trying so hard to keep these stories interesting that they\u2019re falling apart at the last possible moment. The finish is in sight, and it just seems like WWE can\u2019t get out of their own way to cross the finish line. There was no need to have Becky Lynch have her match taken away so arbitrarily, and if you wanted to go that route of her getting her match back, I guess that\u2019s understandable because there\u2019s a ton of time between Royal Rumble and WrestleMania, but why did Vince have to take her match away from her for \u201chaving a bad attitude\u201d when they had the built-in story that she wasn\u2019t a scheduled competitor in the Royal Rumble match? The obvious story that most people thought would be told was completely ignored. Then, if you still want Vince to do that angle with Becky, don\u2019t go do a similar story on the men\u2019s side with him taking away Kofi\u2019s opportunity because he isn\u2019t the biggest star! They\u2019re just overthinking everything. Get back to basics! Tell simple stories, have wins matter, have people go one winning streaks that get them title matches, have someone at the top of the card go through a serious losing streak and have to refocus themselves. Instead, we have stories about people not being big enough stars to main event, tag teams forming because their fathers didn\u2019t tell them they were proud of them as kids, and having someone destroy a sports car that was being held together with a hot glue gun just to sell a toy and to have a few backstage segments at WrestleMania. I hope they can reset after WrestleMania and get back to basics &#8211; because right now they\u2019ve really lost their way and I\u2019m finding it hard to justify watching 5 hours of television every week.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>NOW CHECK OUT OTHER\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/category\/prowrestlingnews\/weekly-overviews\/\">WEEKLY OVERVIEWS HERE<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>OR JUMP TO LAST WEEK\u2019S WWE OVERVIEW:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2019\/03\/14\/weekly-overview-wwe-thru-3-13-top-stories-of-week-major-show-lineups-live-event-results-schedule-of-live-events-noteworthy-social-media-posts-more\/\">WEEKLY OVERVIEW \u2013 WWE (thru 3\/13): Top stories of week, major show lineups, live event results, schedule of live events, noteworthy social media posts, more<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3497366841\"><div id=\"pwtor-337660838\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>The following is the latest in\u00a0a new series of\u00a0weekly in-depth articles\u00a0exclusive to PWTorch which will help put in perspective major wrestling promotions with a weekly overview, looking at news and roster developments, results, future line-ups, <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2019\/03\/22\/weekly-overview-wwe-thru-3-20-top-stories-of-week-major-show-lineups-live-event-results-schedule-of-live-events-noteworthy-social-media-posts-more\/\" title=\"WEEKLY OVERVIEW \u2013 WWE (thru 3\/20): Top stories of week, major show lineups, live event results, schedule of live events, noteworthy social media posts, more\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":56074,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,6075,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-76903","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-prowrestlingnews","category-weekly-overviews","category-news_wwe"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/post\/2018\/03\/WWE-logo-3x2_600.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76903","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76903"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76903\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":76913,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76903\/revisions\/76913"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/56074"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76903"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76903"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76903"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
