I know I am jumping the gun in a big way here, but, after thinking about it:

Roman Reigns vs John Cena & Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar... and either or has to headline WrestleMania 32 & 33, lMO.


Indeed, Roman isn't 'there' yet.
However, the past week has clearly done a lot for his chances to be a 'fixed' Main Event talent going forward. However, given he is 'the Chosen One', those 2 guys are the pinnacle that he has to knock off and I can't see him facing either at PPVs other than WrestleMania. WWE has some work to do if they are to make it happen, however.

Oh a few.

Care to list any of those 'changes' you have noticed?

Unless Undertaker vs. Cena happens, probably.

We have something to cheer for.

What's the odds of The Hardys returning to WWE??

Will Samoa Joe ever join the main roster??

 

[BestSportsEntertainer]

I could see it going either way, though it would be Reigns doing the turn.

When he finally gets 100% cheers... from Philly?

Seems counterproductive to me, though I do doubt his reactions will remain that positive.

Why not turn Cena heel? Are they not 100% confident in Reigns as face of the company, or is it some other reason?

What is the appeal in Reigns vs. Lesnar at WM32? It seems repetitive to me.

How did Rock vs. Hogan at No Way Out 2003 go? Does it rank anywhere close to their match from WM18?

Pretty strong at some point.

Yeah he will.

Short version: Reigns got cheered once. There's no proof that it's going to last long term.

What is the appeal in Reigns vs. Lesnar at WM32? It seems repetitive to me.

Great match, inconclusive ending, the one that got away for Lesnar vs. the ultimate challenge for Reigns.

How did Rock vs. Hogan at No Way Out 2003 go? Does it rank anywhere close to their match from WM18?

Nothing great and not even close.

What's going on with your website?

 

[klunderbunker]

I'm not sure but I'm looking into it.

 

[Omaj_Zonez]

is your website down?

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah it is. I'm working on it.

 

[#MrScissorsKick]

Homie, what's up with your site? Come on man!!!

 

[klunderbunker]

I'm working on it.

If you were a wrestler yourself KB, what would your finisher be?

 

[klunderbunker]

In OCW it was an impaler but that's done to death. I've always been fond of the TKO.

Just finished watching the Raw from the end of 96 where the Gunn's Main eventer against each other. Did Billy hurt his neck on that stun gun Bart gave him? Or was it already hurt and they used that spot to explain the injury?

 

[OYDK]

Did you get more personal entertainment out of TNA or WWE in 2015?

I ask because, for all the flack that TNA gets, I thought they had a pretty solid year of programming.

My guess is the former.

They were watchable but just so dull most of the time.

WWE had solid pay per views more often than not which made up for them. It felt like the shows actually mattered.

In the Brain's thread about him starting to watch NXT, someone brought up a very interesting topic: Finn Balor debuting on the main roster.

How do you debut him? Make it a surprise the night after Wrestlemania in front of a crowd that knows exactly who he is? Do you show demon vignettes to hype him up? Do you actually debut him as the demon to immediately hook in the casual fans?

 

[klunderbunker]

I think the first but not as the Demon. When you start with that and then go to normal Balor, it's a bit of a step down.

If the roster was at full strength, would you even consider a Bray Wyatt/Wyatt family vs Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania? I personally don't think the Wyatt family need wins to look strong as I think their gimmick does enough to the casual fan to see that they could beat anyone, but I read a lot of things that people write about how they need wins to compliment their gimmick or talent or whatever. What better person than to have them go over Brock. Would be believable as you have 3 big guys to counter Brocks strength and 'mob' him giving Wyatt the win and not making Lesnar look weak.

 

[klunderbunker]

Not until Wyatt has been completely rehabilitated.

So this new year will bring about a full 10 years since I started watching again. One thing I've noticed since even back then is that Slammy shows are pretty consistently bad. Reading the LD (I didn't plan on missing last night, but it happened) from last night, it sounds like this one wasn't too bad. What's the highest you've ever rated a Slammy show?

 

[klunderbunker]

2012 got a B+.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

I was there live!! in a luxury suite no less!


I went to sleep at the start of the cage match, anything cool happen in the final segment?

 

[L@RISANO]

So we gonna get Cena & Reigns vs LoN & the Authority starting next week, aren't we? Does that mean we are moving towards an eventual match between the 2 WWE Supermen at WrestleMania 32 or will one of them be sidetracked?
