WWE house show advertisements are usually a good indicator as to what the storyline plans are leading to upcoming pay-per-view events because many of the matches at the house shows are booked so that wrestlers can get some work together before the big show.
During SmackDown, PostWrestling.com’s John Pollock says that a commercial that aired in Canada lists two of the top matches for the upcoming house show in Toronto.
Pollock stated that the following matches were advertised for the show on 3/27:
– Bobby Lashley vs. Seth Rollins vs. AJ Styles
– Becky Lynch vs Rhea Ripley vs. Bianca Belair
The Lashley vs. Rollins vs. Styles match might not be a title match if the decision is made to have Brock Lesnar win the WWE Championship at Elimination Chamber in Saudi Arabia. There has been talk about the Reigns vs. Lesnar match at Mania being a title vs. title match and Paul Heyman has been mentioning a possible title vs. title match scenario during his promos.
The Lynch vs. Ripley vs. Belair match, if that happens at Mania, would be for the Raw Women’s Championship.
The two matches that have been officially announced so far for WrestleMania 38 are Roman Reigns defending the Universal Championship against Brock Lesnar and Charlotte Flair defending the SmackDown Women’s Championship against Ronda Rousey.
During SmackDown, the following matches were listed for the Toronto house show on 3/27:
*Lashley vs. Rollins vs. Styles
*Becky Lynch vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Bianca Belair
