2017 Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal (Kickoff Match)

2017 Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal (Kickoff Match)



RESULT: Mojo Rawley wins by last eliminating Jinder Mahal
THOUGHTS: Who the hell would have thought Big Show and Braun Stowman would be eliminated so fast and this would come down to Killian Dain, Jinder Mahal and Mojo Rawley of all people?
The Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal returns to WrestleMania for the fourth straight year tomorrow, during the second hour of the WrestleMania Kickoff, which can be seen live on WWE Network, USA Network, WWE.com and more platforms. A multitude of WWE Superstars from both Raw and SmackDown LIVE will collide to see who will claim the contest’s coveted trophy.

The annual Battle Royal was introduced at WrestleMania 30 in honour of the late WWE Hall of Famer, Andre the Giant. Since then, the over-the-top-rope extravaganza has become an opportunity for the winner to carve out his very own WrestleMania moment while catapulting his career to new heights.

In the match’s inaugural showing, Cesaro walked out the winner after bringing 75,000-plus WWE fans in New Orleans to their feet as he hoisted Big Show over the top rope for the victory. Since then, The World’s Largest Athlete has joined the winner’s circle along with Baron Corbin. Which Superstar will join this still a very elusive group in Orlando?

Universal Champion Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar

Universal Champion Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar RESULT : After 4:46, Brock Lesnar wins the title. THOUGHTS : This was better than I expected. As if the long-awaited mega rematch between Goldberg and Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 33 wasn’t already big enough, the stakes have been heightened following Goldberg’s triumph at WWE Fastlane. Now, The Beast Incarnate is out for not only redemption tonight, but also Goldberg’s newly won Universal Championship. Despite his world-beater bona fides, The Conqueror has never defeated his decorated opponent. Indeed, Goldberg has had Lesnar’s number since the first time they locked horns, at WrestleMania XX. After more than a decade away from WWE, Goldberg returned last fall and destroyed Lesnar in shocking fashion at Survivor Series, thrashing The Conqueror in one minute and 26 seconds. Lesnar’s advocate, Paul Heyman, chalked up the loss to The Beast taking Goldberg too lightly and nothing more. Yet at Royal Rumble, Goldberg enjoye...

SmackDown Women’s Championship Match

SmackDown Women’s Championship Match SmackDown Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss is in for the title defence of her life tomorrow at WrestleMania. WWE’s Wicked Witch will face Becky Lynch, Natalya, Mickie James, Carmella and, now, Naomi. The gigantic title bout came together after General Manager Daniel Bryan, in an effort to demonstrate that Team Blue is WWE’s true land of opportunity, ruled that any woman on the SmackDown LIVE roster who is available to compete would be eligible to vie for the division’s crown. Naomi, who forfeited the SmackDown Women’s Title as a result of an injury, became the latest competitor added to the match when she returned to surprise on the March 28 edition of SmackDown LIVE. Now that she’s back in action and determined to regain the title, will Naomi make the rest of her opponents “feel the glow” tonight in her hometown of Orlando? Even though this probably isn’t the WrestleMania dance card she hoped for, the fiery champion wo...
