Andrew Zarian returns for another Sunday edition of Wrestling Observer Live to discuss the latest news from the past week. WWE Backlash took place Saturday night, featuring Roman Reigns retaining his title against Jacob Fatu. I discuss that match and the rest of the show, including Asuka’s possible semi-retirement following her bout with IYO SKY. Plus, we look at Danhausen’s mystery partner and more! I also react to AEW Fairway to Hell and its unique venue, questioning whether the promotion could utilize more unconventional locations in the future. The show featured Mark Davis becoming the new National Champion and Darby Allin retaining the AEW Championship. Finally, we cover John Cena’s big announcement, the Gingerbread Man funeral, a preview of AEW Double or Nothing, and more! Grab your Dave Meltzer year books Don't have access to this video?
