WrestleMania 31:

WWE have confirmed the main event of WrestleMania 31 will be Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns for the WWE Championship.

WWE also started the John Cena vs Rusev feud during a post show interview.

Here is the first promo for the event...

Anti WWE social media campaign:

#CancelWWENetwork has been trending since last night's Royal Rumble. Fans, not just those in attendance, have railed against WWE's handling of the Royal Rumble match, many furious over the choice of winner. One fan said the chants on screen paled into obscurity compared to the anger in the arena, particularly after Daniel Bryan's elimination. Despite this WWE officials have confirmed that they will not be repeating last year, and bowing to fan pressure to include Daniel Bryan in the WrestleMania main event.

Fans are now joining together, planning to punish WWE for the event by leaving their Network, in the hopes of sending WWE a message. And it is working, the take up for the campaign was so strong last night that the WWE Network cancellation page crashed, due to the amount of people trying to give up their subscriptions.

All of this followed what was described as an ugly scene outside the arena last night. A large group of livid fans blocked the exit to the arena, refusing to allow talent to leave the building. One incident of note was one of the Uso's angrily getting out of his car to challenge some of the crowd, a fan watching the situation, but, he says, not involved in it, said he ''Went off'' at the group.

Raw:

WWE are expecting major issues with their programming this week due to a severe snow storm in the USA. The governor of Connecticut said a travel ban would be implemented, meaning fans would not be able to travel to or from the event, and the roster would not be able to travel on to Boston for tomorrows shows.

He seemed unimpressed by reporters asking about the event...

"As important to the world economy as wrestling is, public safety tops it."

Not just problems for tonight, TD, hosts of tomorrows TV's say they expect the WWE SmackDown and Main Event tapings to be cancelled due to the storm.

WWE have just confirmed cancelling both tonight and tomorrows shows, but say they will have a live Raw from their own studios in Stamford.

Here is tonight's tease...

• Does Daniel Bryan have what it takes to make it back to WrestleMania?
• Seth Rollins will get right back on his horse to the top
• Will Rusev have more words for John Cena?
• Could another WWE Legend besides The Rock stand up to The Authority?
• Will Roman Reigns get past Big Show to make it to WrestleMania 31?
