WWE Women’s Revolution Hots up Live on DStv

Wrestling fans in Nigeria will on Monday have an opportunity of watching history being made as the first-ever WWE pay-per-view event featuring women superstars will be exclusively live on DStv.

The event, scheduled to take place in New York with all four women’s championship belts on the line, will be live on SuperSport 8 (channel 228) at Tuesday midnight and repeated in the evening at 6p.m. on SuperSport 9 (channel 229). GOtv viewers can catch the special event on Friday 2 November at 7:30p.m. on SuperSport Select 3 (channel 33).

The most anticipated bout of the night is between the Raw women’s champion, Ronda Rousey, as she takes on Nikki Bella, who is threatening a “Bellalution”.

The two combatants, who were once allies, would square-up in what will be a grudge bout, with Bella threatening her more prominent opponent.

Also on the card, SmackDown women’s champion, Becky Lynch, will defend her title against Charlotte Flair in a last woman standing match.

The “Irish Lass Kicker” and Flair heiress will do battle in the first-ever Last Woman Standing match at the historic event. This will be the third encounter between both fighters, with Flair winning the first when Lynch got herself intentionally disqualified, and the second ended in a brawl.

Nigeria manager Gernot Rohr has admitted that he was surprised by the decision of Chelsea winger Victor Moses who decided to quit the national team less than two months after he represented the country at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

One of the reasons why the Blues number 15 decided to quit the Super Eagles was to concentrate on his career with the Premier League side, however, he has found playing opportunities hard to come by this season.

Bordeaux summer signing Samuel Kalu has struggled to replicate the performances of Moses after three matches for the Super Eagles in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

‘’I have to admit that it did come as a surprise, but we had to accept it. He wanted to focus more on his family and club,’’ said Rohr to Kick Off Magazine.

‘’Unfortunately, he is now not playing regularly at Chelsea. He is only 27 and it really was a bit surprising, but we have to live with it.

‘’We tried to find a replacement for him and found Kalu from Bordeaux, who has done well so far.’’

Moses was one of the stars when Nigeria won the Africa Cup of Nations in 2013 and scored 12 goals in 38 appearances for the Super Eagles.
