In a match that has been expected for nearly a year, Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar for the WWE Universal Championship is now officially confirmed for this year’s WrestleMania 34 event.

Reigns defeated John Cena, Finn Balor, Seth Rollins, Elias, Braun Strowman and The Miz in the men’s Elimination Chamber match at last night’s WWE pay-per-view event at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. With the win, as advertised, Reigns advances on to challenge Lesnar for the Universal Title at the biggest show of the year. It’s worth noting that the show ended last night with Strowman standing tall after attacking Reigns after the match.

As noted prior to last night’s show via Paul Heyman, Lesnar will be appearing on tonight’s edition of RAW to go face-to-face with the winner of the Elimination Chamber match, which ended up being Reigns. With that said, expect a face-to-face confrontation between Lesnar and Reigns on tonight’s show to begin the official build up to their title match at WrestleMania 34.

WrestleMania 34 is scheduled to take place at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana on Sunday, April 8th.

  • Update: Lesnar & McMahon Get Into Argument After WrestleMania 34

Lewis Hamilton was critical of Pirelli’s 2021-spec tyre that drivers put to the test on Friday in Bahrain, insisting the new rubber was “worse” than its current specification.

Each driver was allocated two sets of the experimental 2021 tyre to sample in either FP1 or FP2.

Ahead of setting the fastest time of the day, Hamilton put the rubber to the task in the evening session, but the Briton’s feedback was anything put positive.

“We’ve got a team here from Pirelli and I have the utmost respect for the guys that load our tyres up, come here and keep us safe and they do an amazing job,” said Hamilton.

“Unfortunately, we’ve had the same tyre for the last two years.

“At the end of 2019 they brought a new tyre, which they normally do, and it was quite a bit worse. So then they said ‘well, we’ll just keep the tyre from last year’.

“They’ve had two years now to develop a better tyre and we’ve arrived with a tyre that’s three kilos heavier and is like a second worse per lap.”

Hamilton admitted to being baffled – and worried – by the result of Pirelli’s efforts.

“I know for the fans that doesn’t really make a difference but from a driving point of view we’re working with brands and partners who are at the forefront of technology and elevating and moving forwards.

“And if you’re going back, after two years of development, then I don’t know what’s happening.

“It definitely doesn’t feel good out there and it’s a worry.

“I’d prefer to just stay on these tyres. If that’s all they’ve got and that’s the best they can do, which clearly it is, then it’d be better just to stay with this tyre.”

Hamilton previously took a keen interest in Pirelli’s work to produce a better tyre, attending an FIA meeting in Paris as the representative of the GPDA to help guide F1’s exclusive tyre supplier and define the ‘target letter’ intended to determine the characteristics of Pirelli’s range of compounds.

“The previous target letter we weren’t involved in and they hadn’t listened to a single word we’ve said in previous years,” said a visibly frustrated Hamilton.

“We delivered lots of emails going back and forth to help them. And it’s still no better.

“So I wouldn’t say that we can do any more. Ultimately it’s technology. I don’t know if we’re at the limit of technology or it’s just their limit.”

At the end of Friday’s running, Hamilton wasn’t the only one left unimpressed by Pirelli’s 2021 product.

Red Bull’s Max Verstappen said: “We were a bit all over the place on grip and balance”. An verdict echoed by team mate Alex Albon before his massive crash: “They’re slow and they’re not very grippy. I reckon they were over a second off what we have now.”

And McLaren’s Lando Norris commented that the tyre was “a little bit trickier to drive, not a big difference”.

Adam Cole recently spoke with Benjamin Raven of MLive.com to promote tonight’s NXT live event near the Detroit, Michigan area. Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview.

On describing his first year with WWE as “just wild”: “I always think back to that first night in Brooklyn, where I debuted, and it was this total surprise. I just remember thinking, ‘I hope they care, I hope they remember me.’ The way they embraced me that night, I knew it was the start of something special.”

On support from Kevin Owens: “Kevin has always gone above and beyond in being supportive of me in my journey. To have him there to support me was awesome. Talk about another friendship that will never go away.”

On believing in the NXT brand and not going straight to the WWE main roster as part of the RAW or SmackDown Live brands: “NXT is something I really believe in and still do. This is made up of young passionate people that want to make a name for themselves. I wanted to be a part of WWE, and part of NXT first as if I went to Raw or SmackDown right away I would always wonder what NXT would have been like. The coaches, the team and hands-on approach is really cool and I will be able to look back see how happy I was to be a part of this.”

Report by: Jason Powell, prowrestling.net

The broadcast team of Michael Cole, Beth Phoenix, and Corey Graves welcomed viewers to the show and played up MMC as the most interactive show anywhere… Ring introductions for the match took place…

Pre-taped promos aired. In a shocking twist, Roode stated that beating Rusev and Lana would be glorious. Rusev told Lana that she would crush Charlotte. Lana told him he would destroy Bob Roode…

1. Bobby Roode and Charlotte vs. Rusev and Lana. Before the match, Charlotte shoved Rusev. Lana got upset. She tried to slap Charlotte, but ended up hitting Roode instead. A few minutes into the match, Lana performed a facebuster for a two count. Cole laid it on thick about being impressed by Lana. Charlotte performed a fallaway slam and the women tagged out.

Roode performed a blockbuster on Rusev for a two count. Roode went for his finisher, but Rusev avoided it and caught Roode with a kick for a two count. Shinsuke Nakamura and Natalya were shown chatting on their phones with fans. They said Charlotte and Roode were tan and tall. Rusev worked over Roode and yelled, “Lana is the best, Lana number one.” Lana scolded the crowd for booing her. Rusev connected with another kick to the shoulder of Roode. Rusev went to the middle rope and played to the crowd. He went for a headbutt, but Roode avoided it and made the tag.

Charlotte caught Lana with a big boot and then went for her finisher, but Rusev dragged Lana to the ropes. Charlotte walked over and slapped Rusev. Lana rolled up Charlotte for a two count and then made the tag. However, Roode was still down selling at ringside. Rusev smiled as he looked at Charlotte. Cole said the referee needed to make a decision. Apparently, counting out Roode was not an option. Charlotte chopped Rusev, who put his hands behind his back. Roode returned to the ring, kicked Rusev, and then hit the Glorious DDT for the win…

Bobby Roode and Charlotte defeated Rusev and Lana in 11:00 to advance to the semifinals.
