New Japan Pro Wrestling has released the full match card for this weekend’s big Sakura Genesis event at Ryogoku Sumo Hall.

As expected, Kazuchika Okada will put his record-breaking IWGP Heavyweight Championship reign on the line against the winner of the 2018 New Japan Cup, Zack Sabre Jr. This will be the British technical wizard’s first ever attempt at the title, but should Okada retain he will tie Hiroshi Tanahashi’s impressive 11-win record for most successful title defenses in a single run.

Will Ospreay will also defend the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Championship against his arch rival and the man who has had his number for years – “The Villain” Marty Scurll. The old saying goes, “There are three things for certain in this world: death, taxes, and Scurll beats Ospreay.” Will the tradition continue, or can young William overcome his greatest foe to cement himself as one of the all-time great junior heavyweights in New Japan?

Here’s the final match card…

ESPN has published a new interview with Los Angeles Coliseum manager Joe Furin, who discussed WrestleMania 7 taking place at the classic venue. Furin also noted in the interview that he would love to see a future WrestleMania take place at the venue, and had the following to say on the possibility:

“I think it would be great to see WrestleMania 36 or 37 at the Coliseum,” Furin said. “That’s definitely a call we’re going to make. I think I have to update the bid video, but the reasons remain the same. We’ve hosted every big event except for one, and it would be great to finally come full circle and check that box and host WrestleMania.”

“WrestleMania has certainly grown, and the Coliseum has also grown with the city of Los Angeles,” Furin said. “If you have a big event, you want to go somewhere that has hosted big events. There’s sometimes a risk in taking it into a new facility that is still working the bugs out, but you’d like to have it somewhere with a history and a track record of hosting big events, and there’s no stadium in the world with that kind of history and track record of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.”

WWE.com has announced the following:

If you’re passing by the Roderick Artspace Lofts in downtown El Paso, Texas, you may happen upon a familiar face – or, in this case, mask: Sin Cara has been featured on a new mural by Jesus “Cimi” Alvarado, Victor “Mask” Casa and Martin “Blast” Zubia, depicting iconic local artists of Latin heritage.

The International Sensation’s portrait stands among renderings of former Music Director and Conductor of the El Paso Symphony Orchestra, Abraham Chavez; Rosa Guerrero, who founded the International Folklorico Dance Group; and Rocky Star, a fellow luchador from Juarez and a childhood “idol” of the former NXT Tag Team Champion.

“I want to thank all the people and the artists who were part of this project … It was a complete day. I can’t ask for more,” Sin Cara told WWE.com following the unveiling. “I’m very honored that they chose me to be part of it. I think it tells people that within our cities, in our borders, there are a lot of people that have done great things.”

Though he is billed from Mexico City, Sin Cara was born in El Paso and raised in the city’s “Segundo Barrio.” In 1996, the future Superstar mounted an undefeated season as an amateur wrestler in his senior year at Burges High School. The campaign culminated in a state championship and a special vote that declared him the most outstanding grappler of the tournament.

“The meaning of this mural for me, the most important thing and the message that I want kids and young people to understand, is that no matter your dreams, you can achieve anything you want,” he told WWE.com after a tour of his hometown that included a stop in his old wrestling room and a noted local bakery. “Every time they see Sin Cara, they see all these people and these great artists in the mural [who achieved their dreams], they can identify with it … If I can be a little piece of motivation in their hearts and in their minds, I’ll be very grateful. I’m very happy to be part of the history of El Paso.”

Emocionado y muy contento por formar parte de este gran mural con personajes que siempre admiré. Siempre soñé con ser parte de la historia de mis queridas Ciudad Juarez y El Paso 🙏🇲🇽🇺🇸. Pueden leer la nota completa en 👉 https://t.co/9R3TXQrMkq … #SinCara #CiudadJuarez pic.twitter.com/CxBpaWo8QN

The Sun has posted an exclusive video of WWE Superstar, Alicia Fox, getting into an altercation with Ronda Rousey’s husband, Travis Browne.

The argument took place at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in New Orleans with Fox swearing at the UFC star and calling him rude before realizing that she was being filmed and grabbing the camera. You can see the altercation between them below.

It is unknown at this point what started the confrontation or if the issue has been resolved, but this is likely not going to do Fox any favors with WWE management, due to how high the company is on Ronda Rousey.

Fox has been off WWE television since she injured her tailbone when preparing for the first ever female Royal Rumble match and it is unclear when she is expected to return at this moment. We will have more on this story as it breaks down.

Antonio Giovinazzi was unable to capitalize on his good performance in qualifying at Zandvoort, having been forced to undertake an extra stop in last Sunday’s race due to a puncture.

The Alfa Romeo driver lined up an impressive seventh on the Dutch Grand Prix grid after achieving his best result in qualifying year-to-date and equaling his career best in Formula 1.

Giovinazzi took a cautious approach to the race’s opening lap, nevertheless holding his own into the first corner. But a minor contact with Fernando Alonso on the exit of Turn 4 unsettled the Italian who was overtaken by both Alpine’s drivers and McLaren’s Daniel Ricciardo.

“We were in turn three and then on the straight and then I had touch with Fernando,” said the Alfa driver. “That was it.”

Giovinazzi settled into his race inside the top ten and was on course for a one-stop strategy, but six laps after his swap from the soft to the medium compound, he was forced back into the pitlane.

“We had a puncture on the rear-right, but we don’t know why,” he explained.

“I think after that, the race was over because we’d done one stop more than the others and then it was just difficult.”

The 27-year-old, whose future with Alfa and in F1 is still up in the air, reckons a top-10 finish was on the cards without the setback which pushed him down the order.

“We were in the points at that moment,” he said. “So tricky to say, but up until that moment, we were in the points.

“It had been a really good weekend until then but that bad luck during the race means we didn’t score any points.

“Now we focus fully on Monza, my home race. I’m looking forward to giving a good show to all the Tifosi.”

David Starr Gives Tips

Popular independent wrestler, David Starr has given some tips and advice to wrestling fans who will be at meet and greets over WrestleMania weekend.

Starr has asked fans not to unfold a wrestlers display shirt at their table and reminded them that conversation is welcome, but not if they are lingering and holding up a line for people wishing to purchase something.

ATTN wrestling fans who approach merch tables:

1) DO NOT UNFOLD OUR DISPLAY SHIRTS.

2) Conversation is fine & welcomed, but please do not hold up a queue by lingering.

Kthnxbye.

WWE star and Executive Triple H recently spoke with FOX News ahead of WrestleMania 34, and below are some interview highlights:

On Ronda Rousey WWE signing possibly opening the door for other top athletes to sign with WWE:

“I do, you know the performance center and our recruiting efforts have sort of changed that perception outside of our world anyway. There’s been a lot of, whether it be NFL players or soccer globally or anything else that have had a desire maybe to try and want to do this but never had that pathway in front of them. The pathway is now there, I say it all the time: What I’m doing internationally with all these other markets is I’m trying to create pathways. I’m bringing a recruiting team there trying to create an environment where if somebody says “Man, I love that, and I’d like to try and do that,” there’s a way for them to do that. Ronda took that path that wasn’t there before. We created that path, she came to us; she approached us probably about the same time we approached her, but the pathway was there and I think now she will open a lot of eyeballs of athletes around the world to say “Well, why can’t I?””

On the importance of women in WWE being featured more prominently in a male-dominated profession:

“I think the word male dominated is changing, right? And I think that’s the great thing. I have said it since the beginning of me getting involved with the development of talent… I don’t see the difference [between men and women], I just see talent. It doesn’t matter to me, male, female, doesn’t matter; where they’re from in the world, doesn’t matter. I just want the best. I want the best athletes, most personality, people that fans are going to be captivated by their personalities and their personas and want to see them perform. And then knowing that as athletes they’ll be able to put on a show like no one else can. That is the goal. For me, I think it is phenomenal, but I’m happy that I feel like soon we’ll be getting to a point where it’s no longer a big deal because it just is. It’s not a male dominated anything… It’s WWE, and it’s for anybody.”

Ricochet Reflects On His Journey

WWE NXT star, Ricochet has been reflecting on his career journey after seeing his WWE theme on iTunes. Ricochet talked about how he has gone from packing his own t-shirts to sell at shows to having one on WWEShop.com, thanking everyone who has helped him out.

Not too long ago I had to fold and pack my own shirts and bring them to every show. Along with selling my own 8×10’s I had to get printed. Which I didn’t mind cause it was a way for me to make a couple extra dollars plus gave me a chance to meet and talk with the fans! Which is always a fun experience. – – To go from that to now having my own shirt which you can now get at WWEShop.com to having my official #NXT entrance theme available on @itunes AND @spotify is completely insane to me. Just wanted to say thank you to everyone, you all are the best fans, friends, family I could ask for. If not for you I wouldn’t be where I’m at. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
