AEW Rampage results: Rey Fenix tries to dethrone Powerhouse Hobbs

Get quick AEW Rampage results for March 17, 2023, as Rey Fenix challenges Powerhouse Hobbs for the TNT Championship.

AEW Rampage is usually on at 10 p.m. ET on Friday nights. Sometimes it airs at other times, or occasionally on other days, because TNT is showing sports. This week? We’re staying up late, baby!

That’s because arguably the biggest sporting event that TNT airs is the first few rounds of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. You might also know it as March Madness. Please don’t sue us for using it here, we’re doing it for non-commercial purposes.

In any case, Rampage might be worth waiting for, if you like Rey Fenix. As we do. He’ll try to take the TNT Championship from a man who just won it and isn’t likely to release his hold on it easily, Powerhouse Hobbs.

Taya Valkyrie made some waves when she showed up on Dynamite, and she’ll make her in-ring AEW debut on this show too. Let’s see how she looks and what else is in store now that hoops is finally over … until tomorrow.
