Chairshot Wrestling Shuffle: Becky, Ciampa, Ronda and More! (3/1/2019)

Jason shuffles in to your Chairshot Wrestling News Shuffle with commentary on Becky Lynch, Ronda Rousey, Ciampa Injury and more!

Tommaso Ciampa Reportedly Injured

This week on SmackDown Live, Tommaso Ciampa was advertised to wrestle Cesaro, however the match didn’t occur as Ciampa has been dealing with an injury. PWInsider is reporting that the injury appears to be a neck injury which may keep him out for an extended period of time. This could affect the upcoming Dusty Rhodes Classic.

Jason’s Take

PWInsider is usually pretty accurate with their news. Hopefully Ciampa is able to recover soon, because there appears to be big things planned for him since his NXT callup. Don’t forget, he is also the current NXT champion.

Roman Reigns To Wrestle At Fastlane?

Many fans were speculating what Roman Reigns would announce when he returned to RAW on Monday. Many were wondering if he would be returning to action at WrestleMania. Amazingly, it looks like he will be returning at the Fastlane pay per view. The Q Arena in Cleveland, Ohio is advertising Reigns and Seth Rollins vs. Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley in a 2-on-3 handicap match for WWE Fastlane.

Jason’s Take

Wow. In speaking with one of the our daily visitors on Monday, I speculated that Reigns would return to start a foundation to raise money for Leukemia awareness and thought fans should temper their expectations to let the man recover. Never could I have imagined Reigns would be stepping back into the ring so quickly. Regardless of what you think of him as a wrestler, for him, and the fans, this is great news!

Madison Rayne Released From ROH

Long time IMPACT Knockout Madison Rayne has been released from Ring Of Honor. PWInsider reports that she was unhappy with her creative direction, but the split is mutual.

Jason’s Take

If Madison Rayne continues to wrestle, I wouldn’t be surprised if she ended up in AEW. AEW could use her veteran presence on the roster. I know how everyone hates the “XXXXX is going to AEW!” news, but Rayne to AEW would actually make sense.

Jason’s Take

To be honest, I do not watch much if any IMPACT Wrestling. Gasp! From what I have watched recently, her storylines with Allie have been entertaining.

Rousey/Lynch Social Media Feud Continues

Cageside Seats has a breakdown of all of the Tweets issued today between Ronda Rousey and Becky Lynch. They include Lynch insulting Rousey’s husband, and Rousey calling Lynch by her real name, threatening to inflict harm on her the next time they meet.

Jason’s Take

The feud and potential match between Lynch and Rousey will be the biggest female fronted match the WWE has had in it’s history. But let’s be honest, this Twitter feud, whether it is a shoot or a work is a bit much. In all honesty, it is a bit of a turn off for the feud/match itself. If WWE wanted compelling TV, give these two an open mic on a RAW to say whatever it is they wanted to. Scratch that. Rousey would screw that up somehow.
