WWE
Last night’s NXT Roadblock event ended with an angle where Roxanne Perez collapsed after retaining her NXT Women’s Championship against Meiko Satomura. After Perez was taken out in an ambulance, WWE posted the following storyline update: “Roxanne Perez will be kept overnight in the hospital for observation and continued testing. #WWENXT.” The angle appears to be a callback to a 1995 storyline where Shawn Michaels fainted during a match against Owen Hart.Johnny Gargano tweeted about facing Grayson Waller at NXT Stand & Deliver: “Because of you.. my story in @WWENXT ended on a cliffhanger 15 months ago. You took my moment from me and I never forgot that. I waited patiently for the right time & place..April 1st.. Wrestlemania Weekend.. I shut you up & close the book my way. #JohnnyTakeOver #OneMoreTime”Gargano shared video of Candice LeRae and their son Quill at the Performance Center watching Gargano’s appearance on NXT last night.Trish Stratus, Lita, and Liv Morgan appeared on WWE’s The Bump this afternoon.Morgan became a meme on Twitter after being shown attending last night’s New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden with WWE senior vice president of live events Justin Scalise.
