It is no secret that WWE currently has plenty of different championships for their roster members to compete for. Even titles that are not on the main roster, such as the NXT Championship, NXT Tag Team Championships, North American Championship, and United Kingdom Championship, have all become sought-after prizes in the company that several wrestlers aspire to win. With the WrestleMania card already stacked from top to bottom this year, not every championship will have the time to be defended on the show, but the company has just confirmed that each of their titles will indeed still be defended by the titleholders over the weekend in New Orleans, Louisiana.
WWE has just announced that four different championship tournaments will be taking place in New Orleans this weekend. The Fan Axxess convention will feature stars from NXT, 205 Live, and WWE’s UK division, as well as competitors from independent wrestling promotions such as PROGRESS and EVOLVE competing in these four tournaments. The tournaments will each help determine contenders for the UK Championship, North American Championship, NXT Tag Team Championships, and NXT Women’s Championship. Matches for the WWN Championship, PROGRESS Women’s Championship, PROGRESS Championship, and PROGRESS Tag Team Championships will also take place at the event.
Yo. This NXT Women’s Invitational tournament looks interesting ?? let’s do the damn thing. I can’t wait to see you all at #Axxess !! #TEAMKICK #WeAreNXT @WWENXT https://t.co/ARypg30yUK

Cody Rhodes announced last week that he is planning on changing the logo currently used for the Bullet Club faction. The gang’s logo has become one of the most iconic images in the professional wrestling industry in recent years, so the decision to change the logo was met with some skepticism from fans. The group’s top merchandise distributor, One Hour Tees, has just informed fans that the logo currently being used for the faction will actually not be changing after all. Rhodes later confirmed that the group will continue to use the current logo for the group for the foreseeable future. The possibility of changing the logo was also featured on the most recent edition of the Being the Elite YouTube series.
Due to the overwhelming response to Cody’s proposed logo change. Matt & Nick Jackson, with the support of the Bullet Club, have opted to NOT change the logo. pic.twitter.com/7J400yakp3

Ultimately I felt it was in the best interest of the Bullet Club and the fans, to maintain the current logo. I hope the viewers are pleased with my decision. https://t.co/IvPOn8alKr
