WWE kept the momentum rolling on the Road to WrestleMania with a thrilling house show in Oakland, California, on Saturday, February 17, 2024. Featuring a star-studded lineup from both RAW and SmackDown, the event delivered high-octane action and a headline-worthy title clash.
The evening commenced with Solo Sikoa locking horns with LA Knight, reigniting their ongoing feud with The Bloodline. Despite Sikoa’s earlier victory over John Cena, his luck didn’t turn around as The Megastar triumphed once more, extending Sikoa’s unfortunate losing streak.
Meanwhile, Nia Jax showcased her dominance with a decisive victory over Maxxine Dupri, setting the tone for her upcoming title bout against Rhea Ripley at Elimination Chamber 2024. Making a remarkable return to singles competition, Carlito secured a win against Austin Theory, thanks in part to a timely assist from R-Truth.
The spotlight intensified as Gunther defended his Intercontinental Championship against Chad Gable in the only title match of the night. Despite Gable’s valiant effort, Imperium’s interference led to a disqualification, allowing Gunther to retain his title. However, a subsequent six-man tag team match ensued, with Xavier Woods, Kofi Kingston, and Gable emerging victorious.
In other notable matchups, Omos asserted his dominance by defeating Akira Tozawa, while Asuka clinched a hard-fought victory over Michin.
The event culminated in a riveting Street Fight between Cody Rhodes and Shinsuke Nakamura, with The American Nightmare prevailing in an electrifying showdown.
