How about an hour and a half, then?

Eh not a fan of the half hour thing.

Chances of Roode & Young debuting at TakeOver: Dallas?

Low I hope. I really don't need to see either of them there.

John Cena, Randy Orton and Seth Rollins are all injured. Add in Dean Ambrose and Brock Lesnar, alongwith AJ Styles and Cesaro(who is also injured)... All of those mentioned are currently babyface acts for the WWE, or will return as babyfaces due to long layoffs.


Coming out of Mania, nothing makes more sense than Heel Roman Reigns with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship around his waist and him feuding with each and every guy mentioned above. I sincerely hope that WWE recognizes this because I really feel that a healthy WWE roster post-Mania will mean that the Main Event scene will finally shape up for once.


Your thoughts?

Pretty much yeah. It's a good idea but not something they probably want to go with.

HHH(C) w/Stephanie McMahon vs Dean Ambrose

the Undertaker w/Shane McMahon vs Roman Reigns w/Vince McMahon

Brock Lesnar w/Paul Heyman vs the Wyatt Family


This Mania would have looked better had the matches above been the Top 3 Matches for Mania32, and also possibly resulted in the younger guys being elevated through some smart booking. Also we, the fans would have had alot to look forward to going forward.

Pity, pity...

Yep.

That Brock/Wyatt Family match would have been dog shit, especially since Harper & Bray are both hurt right now. Who the fuck wants Brock vs. Rowan &/or Braun with Bray at ringside unable to get involved?

 

[klunderbunker]

No one. That was actually a lucky injury.

 

[Da Prophet]

"So this is maybe nitpicking and stupid but does it bother anyone else that the first ever WWE women's champion was won with help from a man?"

Max Landis tweeted that out a few hours ago. Valid point or nitpicking?

 

[A11oftheLights]

Do you think there is any chance that Roman is booked as an underdog that takes a beating before rallying with a late charge is because every time roman begins to mount any kind of attack the smarks begin launching the boos?

 

[Khalifa]

Did Stephanies attire just make up and happily make you watch all the opening raw promos she has done and will ever do? She did a number on me.

That's nitpicking. It's a bad angle because I'm sick of Flair and Sasha should have won but no I didn't think anything of that.

Nah. They just don't know how to book him.

Lsat night not so much. That hair and the screeching was offputting. Her on Raw in the simple top and jeans worked VERY well.

Can you think of any time where someone's brought their family out with them during an entrance and won? I'm thinking Bulldog's dying sister, Shane's kids etc.

 

[L@RISANO]

What did you make of Reigns being a No Talk, Just Action for 2 straight weeks on Mania, and then being booked as the usual Babyface Underdog in the actual face that shit on the storyline as a whole?
lMO, the Main Event fell flat because there was no sensible storyline told that could have at least pulled the crowd in as the match went on(Last year's ME match did that perfectly).

Junkyard Dog at the first Saturday Night's Main Event.

It felt like it was HHH trying to be epic and failing as usual.

 

[L@RISANO]

I know many hate the current commentary, but I thought it was interesting how JBL said that Reigns was "neither a good guy or bad guy, but just a guy who wants to be on the Top of the Mountain. Pretty much The Guy."


I really feel that Vince and Co aren't bothered about the boos any longer. Thus, I actually look forward to seeing the likes of Cena, Orton, Lesnar and Rollins, amongst others, go up against WWE WHC Roman Reigns in the coming months. I just hope this feud with HHH is over quickly(as early as tonight, if possible).

How many times did you scratch your head at booking decisions last night?

On a scale of DB winning at WM30 to Undertaker losing at WM30, how surprised were you that Zack Ryder won last night?

I stand by what I said in the LD last night. Vince booked Mania 32 as an "F-U to the Hardcore fanbase". Each and every result went against what was expected/ wanted by the majority of 'smarks' and I am sure that was on Vince "showing who's boss, morethananything.



Apologies to KB for giving my opinion on last night's booking.

They aren't because they sold 100,000 tickets to the show for 17 million dollars.

At least three or four.

Somewhere around a Bray Wyatt losing to John Cena.

Don't make a habit of it.

 

[L@RISANO]

I take it, Neville would have been IC Champion coming out of Mania if he was fit, right?


On that note; How long does Zack Ryder hold onto the IC title?

 

[klunderbunker]

He'd have been in the running.

Probably less than a month.

 

[Shocky]

Shit, I wouldn't be surprised if Corbin beats him tonight.

 

[klunderbunker]

Works for me.

 

[Hollywood Naitch]

Miz as Intercontental Champion? Can you tell me why they've put the belt on him?

 

[klunderbunker]

He's good, he has a hot wife, and because Ryder was supposed to be Neville.

 

[justinsayne]

How was it sitting in AT&T stadium for a 7 hour (I'm including pre-shows) event. Was there a sense of fans getting burned out before the main event even started?

 

[klunderbunker]

Kind of but I've seen worse. There were some young (as in like 3-4 years old) kids next to us falling asleep after Rock left. People wanted it to end but when Rock comes out and has a match then Cena comes out to help him, it's kind of hard to be bored.

 

[Lee]

Is David Otunga now JTG/Yoshi Tatsu levels of why the hell is he still hired?

 

[klunderbunker]

He was at Axxess twice that I saw, one time replacing AJ Styles. I've never seen a line evaporate so quickly.

 

[Lee]

Was checking on OWW and he apparently was in the Andre the Giant battle royale in 2014 and before that his last regular TV run was 2013.
