April Week 3, Year 1

NXT
Match 1. Brock Lesnar vs. Zack Ryder

Match 2. Paige vs. Brie Bella

Match 3. Cesaro and Tyson Kidd vs. Lucha Dragons
Kalisto hit Cesaro with a big splash and standing moonsault. Kalisto got a couple of near falls on Kidd. The Dragons landed a powerbomb/spinning corkscrew elbow on Kidd. Cesaro landed a double underhook powerbomb and a Very European uppercut, but got a two count. Cesaro later hit a double back stabber and won.

Great win by Kidd and (mostly) Cesaro. Can they be the NXT Tag champs next month?

Match 4. X-Pac w/ Billy Gunn vs. Fandango

Match 5. Cactus Jack vs. Bad News Barrett
A clash of styles here. Barrett caught Cactus with a sit-out spine buster. He then hit a sit-out powerbomb. Barrett kicked Jack's head into the steel post. He later connected with the Bull Hammer to win.

Impressive win for Barrett. He's found new life in NXT.

Match 6. Randy Orton vs. Kevin Owens vs. Rusev
Our first time seeing Orton and Owens. Orton brought Owens to the outside and Rusev followed. Orton cracked Rusev in the back with a chair. Back in the ring, Owens hit Orton with a pop-up powerbomb, but Rusev broke up the pin. Orton took out Rusev with a turning back suplex. Owens took advantage and hit Orton with a tilt-a-whirl sidewalk slam to win.

Owens is atop the power rankings.

WWF
Match 1. Naomi vs. Nikki Bella
The first Divas match. Naomi focused on the left arm of Nikki. Nikki landed the Alabama Slam and got a near fall. After taking a beating on the outside, Naomi landed a split-legged moonsault. She hit a second one, but got another two count. Nikki hit a snapmare and face smash to win.

Nikki got lucky in this one.

Match 2. Elimination - The New Day vs. Gold and Stardust

Match 3. Tyler Breeze vs. Neville
Neville caught Breeze off the ropes with a super kick and standing moonsault. He later hit a standing corkscrew splash. Breeze hit a snap DDT, but missed the Supermodel Kick. Neville hit a DDT on the apron. He later hit a super release German suplex. Breeze came back with his own super back suplex. Neville won by spiking Breeze on his head with a reverse hurricanrana.

Great match. Breeze didn't fall much in the loss.

Match 4. Kane vs. Diamond Dallas Page

Match 5. John Cena vs. Ryback

Match 6. Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins and Triple H
No, I don't have The Authority as a team. Triple H hit Ambrose with a running high knee. Dean came back with a big powerbomb. Rollins tagged H back in after wearing down Ambrose. Triple H landed the spine buster. Rollins took out Reigns on the outside. Triple H then hit the Pedigree to win.

Rollins and Triple H used underhanded tactics to get the win. Reigns and Ambrose will get their revenge.

Recap: Some movements were made in the rankings as there is one week left in the first month.
