By As the Most Stupendous Two-Day WrestleMania in WWE history approaches, this week saw a revenge tour from the champions of SmackDown and Raw, with Brock Lesnar, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch each eyeing their opponents following fiery moments in recent weeks.
On Raw, after Stone Cold Steve Austin accepted the challenge from Kevin Owens for a colossal clash at WrestleMania 38, and declared his first return in 19 years since his last WrestleMania match, things took an interesting turn with Owens leaving his mark on a bystanding camera man as a warning to the WWE Hall of Famer ahead of their upcoming encounter.
Elsewhere, revenge was firmly on Becky Lynch’s mind, as the Raw Women’s Champion emerged to break up Bianca Belair’s celebrations with a brutal attack on her WrestleMania opponent. Belair, stunned following her victory over Doudrop just moments prior, was left with significant damage while Lynch walked away satisfied with her payback on the broken Belair.
On SmackDown, it was an evening of out-of-ring madness as Charlotte Flair made her move against WrestleMania 38 opponent, Ronda Rousey. The SmackDown Women’s Champion, reeling after her devasting injury at the hands of Rousey in recent weeks, picked her moment to ambush her challenger with a shocking attack in the parking garage to close out the evening’s action.
While Flair got her revenge, WWE Champion Brock Lesnar was left enraged as his challenge for a straight match-up with Roman Reigns was met with silence from the Universal Champion, with a nervous Paul Heyman delivering the news.
With the build-up to the Most Stupendous Two-Day WrestleMania in history well underway, fans can keep up with the latest match announcements and all the action from SmackDown and Raw online on WWE.com and through the WWE Network.
