Show Recap —
NIGHT TWO – COUNTDOWN SHOW
As with yesterday, the pre-show is three hours long, but stay tuned for updates until the main show begins at 6 pm ET.
The panellists spoke about last night’s WWE Championship match. Highlights were shown in black-and-white because of the blood. Corey Graves acknowledged Pat McAfee’s not-so-fast count.
Jackie Redmond announced that Cody Rhodes is not medically cleared. He needed three sutures to the face and four staples to the back of the head. His eye is still shut after getting punted by Randy Orton, and there is no timetable yet for his return.
Joe Tessitore called last night spectacular and wildly entertaining.
There was a graphic of wrestlers making their WrestleMania debuts this weekend, and Tessitore referred to them as the rookie class. Stephanie Vaquer was among them.
There was a sit-down interview Booker T did with Trick Williams, Lash Legend, and Je’Von Evans. It wasn’t super enlightening, but it was a nice little feature on the NXT stars making their Mania debuts. Evans said he didn’t want to just do flips in tonight’s ladder match because he can—he wanted to win the IC title. This was followed by a quick live interview with Williams on his match tonight.
Vic Joseph interviewed Joe Hendry outside the stadium. They mentioned his debut against Randy Orton last year, but didn’t say what happened in that match.
Some news for the show: Dominik Mysterio vs. Demon Finn Bálor is now a street fight.
