One last show before we can get back on the road to WrestleMania. The go-home episode for WWE Super Showdown was live from Winnipeg for the first time in 15 years. What would the show have in store? A contract signing and one fantastic interview. What would Shayna Baszler do next? Here are the highlights.

Charley Caruso sat down with the 2020 Men’s Royal Rumble winner, Drew McIntyre, to discuss his upcoming main event match at WrestleMania. McIntyre made it very clear that he does not care who he faces, as long as he is in the main event and he walks out of the WWE Champion. He discussed being “The Chosen One” 11 years ago and even being a member of 3MB. This was as real as it gets, making it a must-see for McIntyre fans and simply all wrestling fans. The man is more determined than ever to complete his one-time destiny.
Women’s Elimination Chamber Contract Signing Leads To Chaos
All six women were supposed to be in the ring for the Women’s Elimination Chamber contract signing. Shayna Baszler was the only woman not out there and Asuka made it loud and clear that she wanted to know where she is. Jerry Lawler, who was running the signing, told everyone to sign the contract. For those who do not know, Liv Morgan, Natalya, Ruby Riott, Sarah Logan, Asuka, and Baszler make up the field. The chaos eventually ensued when Morgan got up and stared down Ruby Riott as she handed her the contract. Ruby signed then rose to her feet. They both sat back down but chaos was close enough.
“The Submission Magician” faked everyone out as her music hit but she instead came through the crowd. The former two-time NXT Women’s Champion made her presence felt almost immediately by signing the contract then staring each of her opponents down. Natalya was the one she stopped at and the staredown was on. Asuka began yelling on the crowd and got in the face of Baszler no problem at this moment, NXT’s most dominant were ready to square off. Somehow, Shayna Baszler managed to be the only one standing and not even touched. She watched on with a smile on her face. But a receipt needed to be paid and out came “The Man.” Finally, the two squared off and had to be pulled apart. This is a WrestleMania match, people. “Let them fight” chants roared through the arena.
Kevin Owens Stuns Seth Rollins’ Referee Disciple
Kevin Owens faced Randy Orton in the main event of Raw and Seth Rollins had his hands all over it. Randy Orton hit a spike DDT after Rollins got the attention of Owens, and the referee proceeded to do a quick three count, making Owens lose. Rollins acted as though he had no clue what had happened, yet he wanted a con-chair-to on the head of Owens via Orton. When Owens managed to get to his feet, Orton backed off but the referee paid the price. He would get stunned by Owens after revealing the Seth Rollins shirt he had on underneath. Then for a final measure, he hit a swift powerbomb on the poor ref. But better yet, it was through a table. Let these two have their blowoff already.
Beth Phoenix returns next week to give an update on Edge.
