WWE News: Dean Ambrose’s Busy Week, Matches For This Week’s NXT, More
– Dean Ambrose wrestled for WWE on Saturday in Boston, then flew to Florida to open a live event in Jacksonville (against Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens) before being rushed to Orlando (two hours away with no traffic) for a main event against Seth Rollins. He will next appear on RAW and Smackdown before flying to shows in Hawaii and Japan.
– WWE will air RAW tonight from Tampa, Florida. This will be the first RAW after Roman Reigns’ suspension, so it remains to be seen how they address his absence. So far, the company appears to be going ahead with Reigns vs. Ambrose vs. Rollins at Battleground, as it happens after the 30-day suspension is up.
– WWE will also tape Superstars tonight. They will then tape Smackdown and Main Event tomorrow at the American Airlines Arena in Miami, Florida.
– Here are the matches for this week’s NXT:
* Alexa Bliss vs. Carmella
* Andrades Cien Almas vs. Noah Potjes
* Johnny Gargano and Tomasso Ciampa vs. The Hype Bros.
* Also appearing are WWE NXT Tag Team champions The Revolution, American Alpha and more.
– A match between Samoa Joe and Oney Lorcan was taped, but it’s unknown if it was filmed for this episode or as a dark/DVD match.
– Tucker Knight got married over the weekend.
