Eddie Edwards Wins ROH World Title at Manhattan Mayham IV

Manhattan Mayham IV

Eddie Edwards last night defeated Roderick Strong at Manhattan Mayhem IV to become the new ROH World Champion. Edwards is now the first ever ROH Triple Crown Champion, having also been a former Tag Team and Television Champion during his time with the company. 

Eddie is now expected to make his first title defence against Christopher Daniels on April 1, before reuniting the American Wolves team with Davey Richards on April 2. 

Honor Takes Center Stage, April 1st & 2nd

Head over to Pro Wrestling Ponderings for all of the results from the Deny Or Defy and Manhattan Mayham IV ROH shows from this past weekend. 

WrestleMania XXVII Card (Including Spoilers)

Just over two weeks ago, the full card for this year's WrestleMania show appeared on the Internet. Moreover, it was revealed on the weekly wrestling podcast Smart Wrestling Fan after a listener had found a shredded copy of all the matches set to be booked for the biggest wrestling weekend of the year. So without further a do. . . 

FULL 'Mania Card!

1. WWE Championship: The Miz (c) vs. John Cena 
2. World Heavyweight Championship: Edge (c) vs. Alberto Del Rio (w/ Ricardo Rodriguez) 
3. The Undertaker vs. Triple H 
4. Randy Orton vs. CM Punk 
5. Rey Mysterio vs. Cody Rhodes 
6. Jerry 'The King' Lawler vs. Michael Cole (w/ Jack Swagger). Special Guest Referee: Stone Cold Steve Austin 
7. Daniel Bryan & Gail Kim vs. King Sheamus & The Bella Twins* 
8. Divas Contest TBD* 
9. Dolph Ziggler & LayCool vs. John Morrison, Trish Stratus & TBD* 
10. The Corre (Wade Barrett, Justin Gabriel, Heath Slater & Ezekiel Jackson) vs. Kane, Kofi Kingston, Christian & Big Show* 

The one thing that screams out at you when you read this list is that there is no Money In The Bank Ladder Match, which is understandable when you consider that there will be a pay per view dedicated to the match later in the year. We hardly need three MITB contests in the one year. 

I have to use this entry to apologise for my very apparent lack of content over on Pro Wrestling Ponderings recently. Jerome Cusson and the crew have been very patient with me, and they are composing some great stuff over there. Hopefully I will get the chance to write more for the website in the weeks leading up to WrestleMania. 

*Yet to be booked. 

Subject to change.
