WWE/NXT Live Event Reports, March 23-27: Last Stops On Road To WrestleMania

The last set of live events before WrestleMania is in the books. 

On the Raw shows, the biggest highlight came at the March 24 event in Montreal was headlined by a Street Fight between the two Quebec natives on the Raw roster, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens. After defeating Owens, Zayn cut an emotional promo about his and Owens' road to this stage that brought Owens to tears:

Raw's loop also featured a series of non-title matches between Austin Aries and Neville, as those two prepare to square off for Neville's Cruiserweight Title at WrestleMania. Meanwhile, Dana Brooke worked her first matches on Raw as a babyface, all in tag matches. Triple H made another appearance at the March 26 event in White Plains, teaming with Owens and Samoa Joe against Zayn, Finn Balor and Chris Jericho in the main event.

Asuka continued to work with the Smackdown crew, participating in a series of six-woman tag matches at all three live events. NXT made another loop of Florida before the next Takeover event on April 1 in Orlando, and Hideo Itami had his first matches since suffering a neck injury last fall.

Here are all the results.
