It’s “Wrestlemania Weekend” at the moment, but you might as well call it “Wrestling Weekend” as not only World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) are presenting its premier top-tier wrestling event known as Wrestlemania, in its 39th year, but there are so many other wrestling companies out there putting on shows, special events, meet and greets, and so much more (A great list is available here). But for those of you who are sitting at home and can’t attend one of the many events live, or you live outside of the United States, we’ve compiled some of the best shows that you can find available to watch via FiteTV (ROH/AEW International), Bleacher Report (ROH United States), Peacock (WWE United States), WWE Network (WWE United Kingdom), or Foxtel/Kayo/Binge (WWE Australia).
As an added bonus, we’ll even predict the winners of each night’s events. Comment below your picks and see how you do against our pro-wrestling experts.
Note: ROH Supercard of Honor and AEW Rampage will be going head-to-head with WWE Smackdown and WWE Hall of Fame.
Ring of Honor (ROH): Supercard of Honor
Start time: March 31, 2023 @ 7 p.m. ET (United States) | March 31, 2023 @ 11 p.m. GMT (United Kingdom) | April 1, 2023 @ 10 a.m. AEST (Australia)
Ring of Honor (ROH) has recently returned to the airwaves with ROH on HonorClub thanks to Tony Khan buying the Ring of Honor (ROH) brand near the end of 2022. ROH on HonorClub began at the start of March, with only 4 shows under its belt to build the main storylines leading up to Supercard of Honor. While some Ring of Honor (ROH) champions and wrestlers also appear on All Elite Wrestling (AEW) programs, only a few like Eddie Kingston have become 100% loyal to the brand. Ring of Honor (ROH) is more about the in-ring product, putting the technicality of the wrestling matches over storytelling, and characters. While it might not be some people’s cup of tea, Ring of Honor (ROH) is the best brand out there when it comes to pure professional wrestling. A great card features from top to bottom and is well worth the money no matter where you buy it.

Predicted Winner: Top Flight (Dante Martin and Darius Martin)
Predicted Winner: The Embassy (Brian Cage, KAUN, and Toa Liona)

Expect a lot of the wrestlers featured on the two-night show like Charlotte Flair, GUNTHER, Roman Reigns, and others to show up to cut promos and wrestle in matches in order to show what they have before heading to the biggest stage. A highlight of this week’s Smackdown will be the Andre the Giant Battle Royal, an over-the-top-rope elimination match that used to take place on the Wrestlemania pre-show, but is now relegated to the Smackdown before Wrestlemania.

Night one of “The Grandest Stage of them all” Wrestlemania begins for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). Night one will begin with the WWE United States title match between the champion, Austin Theory, and the legendary meme himself, John Cena. This upstart versus legend matchup has been brewing on RAW for the last couple of weeks, with Theory claiming he will be the one to make John Cena leave World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) forever. Night one seems to be packed with amazing feature matches like Australian Rhea Ripley (aka Mami) taking on Smackdown Women’s champion Charlotte Flair, a Father versus Son match between Rey and Dominic Mysterio, YouTube sensation Logan Paul taking on Seth Rollins, and capping off the night will be the WWE Undisputed Tag Team Titles with The Usos versus Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn in a matchup that has been the center point of most of the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) storylines for the past 6 months thanks to Sami Zayn’s popularity in his involvement with The Bloodline.

Night two of Wrestlemania might look a little thinner when it comes to matches, but the steaks are much higher. You’ll have super-heavyweights Brock Lesnar versus Omos, a Hell in the Cell match that might see The Demon side of Finn Balor bring out the dangerous Brood side of Edge, GUNTHER chopping some color into both Sheamus and Drew McIntyre, the RAW Women’s title on the line with Bianca Belair going up against Akusa (Who seems to be invoking her demented “Kana” persona from Japan), and topping it all off… We’re going to “Finish the story” with Royal Rumble winner Cody Rhodes taking on the Undisputed WWE champion, the Head of the Table, Roman Reigns! (We Acknowledge the Tribal Chief!). Wrestlemania night two looks to be a huge showstopper to end the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) storylines for 2022/2023 with possibly a new champion to usher in a new era of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).
