WWE is putting the final touches on the Wrestlemania 37 card, with two new matches announced during this week’s go-home edition of Monday Night RAW.

According to Wrestlevotes, WWE originally pitched a Women’s Battle Royal to take place on night one of Wrestlemania, with the final 2 participants forming a team to challenge for the Women’s Tag Team Championship the next night. That idea was ultimately replaced with a Tag Team Turmoil match.

“Original idea prior to the Women’s Tag Team Turmoil match being decided on was to have the annual Women’s Battle Royal where the final 2 would be “winners” & form a tag team the next night. Much like the WM 15 Battle Royal that Test & D’Lo won, then lost later to Owen & Jarrett.”
