WrestleMania Week 2024 is jam packed with way more live events to count and tons of matches on those cards. Since our attention here at eWrestlingNews is more on the WWE and AEW side of things, though, we’ll be focusing much more on ROH Supercard of Honor, NXT Stand & Deliver, and both nights of WrestleMania XL.
That means it’s time to bring back the EWN Round Table with an edition of EWN Staff Picks!
Each member of the team was given the same form to fill out with all the matches for these four shows. If they weren’t feeling confident enough to toss out a prediction for whatever reason, there was an “opt out” choice this year to show where people’s minds are at (in particular, regarding those who might not have been paying attention to ROH and NXT).
We’ve all put down our picks of who we think will win, and these are the results!
