WRESTLING RECAP: Playtime Williams breaks down WWE Raw from 03/16/15


(www.PlaytimeCares.com) - Like any American man, I love wrestling. Every week, I'm going to give a recap of what's new in the sport. I''m a busy guy so I ain't got time to make it pretty but I'll definiately make it worth your while to check back every week. I gotta warn you though, I've got some strong opinion and when it comes to wrestling, I'm not gonna hold back. Ya'll ready? Let's go!

RECAP: Week of March 16, 2015 took place in Des Moines, Iowa and the commentators were JBL, Micheal Cole and Booker T.

This was a pretty lackluster Raw.  You have to come to expect such a thing because Wrestlemania 31 (W31) is 13 days away, and they can not afford to have a major star injure himself before the super bowl of Wrestling.  Here are the highlights of the night:
