Wrestling Observer Live: Jay Briscoe, The Rock & WrestleMania, WWE Royal Rumble preview

It’s Sunday and that means it’s time for another edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, available on YouTube or by clicking below.

The wrestling world was rocked this week with the tragic passing of Jay Briscoe. I talk about how the entire wrestling community came together to show support for his family — even though WBD didn’t want any kind of tribute on this past week’s AEW Dynamite.

Word came out this week that The Rock may not be ready for a match at WrestleMania. Is this an elaborate work or does it simply mean he will do something else on the show?

During the NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 17 show in Yokohama featuring NOAH, Okada got into what appeared to be a shoot fight with Kaito Kiyomiya that set up what will be a very anticipated singles match. We discuss.

Plus, I talk front office changes in WWE, an early WWE Royal Rumble preview, The Great Muta’s last match, and more.
