History
The American
In July that year, WWE reintroduced the brand extension where they again split their roster between the Raw and SmackDown brands where wrestlers were exclusively assigned to perform. Brand-exclusive pay-per-views (PPV) also returned. The Roadblock name was in turn reused for the Raw-exclusive December PPV and WWE Network event. It was titled Roadblock: End of the Line due to it being the final PPV of the year.[3][4] This would also be the final event to carry the Roadblock name as Roadblock was quietly discontinued with no event scheduled for 2017.[5]
The Roadblock name was revived for a special episode of WWE NXT on March 8, 2022, as "NXT Roadblock"; this event served as a lead-in to Stand & Deliver, NXT's WrestleMania weekend show in Dallas.[6][7]
