Probably Reigns vs. Cena.

This mania does have the possibility of being a quite well stacked card, doesn't it? Provided that the WWE play their cards right, of course.

Reigns vs Cena(WWE WHC)
Sting vs HHH
Undertaker vs Bray Wyatt
Orton vs Rollins
Ambrose vs Lesnar

AtG Battle Royal

and hopefully, we could get: Ziggler(IC) vs Rusev(US), with the latter still unbeaten going into Mania.


Thoughts?

I still don't see the need for Undertaker vs. Wyatt.

I'm not too bothered if it happens or not,tbh. But the rumours are there regarding a possible feud between the 2 of them.

If Reigns does win the Rumble then how the hell is WWE gonna stop Heyman from destroying him on the mic?

I have zero idea why.

THere are ways around him. Basically just don't let Heyman do much talking.

I was doing some reading on reddit and someone there made an argument for Roman Reigns:

RR acting like a one man shield does define his character. There are so many good, interesting things being said about him as a man.

He believes in justice, right-and-wrong, and family. To RR, the Shield is necessary and always will be. Dean and Seth are his brothers and always will be. For now, he'll be The Shield alone but he believes his brothers will come back and he will welcome them with open arms when they do.

He's the ultimate good guy. His character is displaying incredible loyalty and focus.

I wish I could find it but there's a match where he says to Rollins, "You're still my brother!" and it was a very touching moment that showed a lot about his character. I couldn't care less about Ambrose wanting to beat up Rollins for revenge - I care a lot about Roman wanting to know why his brother betrayed him but loving him regardless.

Thoughts?

Also, is it just me or should have Cesaro gotten the babyface rocket-push post-Wrestlemania while Reigns continued to slow-burn a little more against Orton and Hunter?

 

[klunderbunker]

Fine, except how is he Shield on his own? I don't get that.

He could hvae but you don't want too many rocket pushes around.

 

[MrHashasheen]

Discussion was about whether or not Reigns needed to get rid of his Shield gear, entrance, music, etc... like Ambrose and Rollins, with some saying he still had it to keep the goodwill from the Shield run with the fans.

We both know that's not gonna happen. Reigns is gonna be exposed big time if he wins the Rumble. It's gonna be fun.

If Reigns is poised to be poised into the top spot do you seeing him end up like 2004 Randy Orton. Getting a run with the top belt before dropping it and finding something else to do for a year or two??

 

[L@RISANO]

Any reason why people are referencing the 'boring' chants during the Big Show-Reigns match, but none of them talk about the same 'boring' chants during the Main Event between Bray Wyatt and Dean Ambrose(who has definitely cooled off since HiaC,lMO)?

Bear in mind that Reigns feuding with Big Show is the biggest pile of Shit if the WWE is serious about his huge push. Why not pair him with someone like Cesaro who can actually get a good match out of him and make him look vulnerable in the process...

Yeah pretty much. I see him like Batista: wins some titles, but winds up being the gladiator that lets his fighting do the talking.

He'll have issues yeah.

Because sometimes you have to ignore the crowd. Look at the Cena vs. Orton match at the RUmble last year. The match is actually decent, but the fans just did not want to see it. Those are two very different things.

So, I actually bothered to watch that shit again...any idea why the WWE thought people would actually be interested in that match? Roman should've squashed Big Show in quick fashion(and put him Off of my TV) and get someone else who can actually help him in the ring,lMO. Indeed the reaction of the crowd means that he was below expectation, but even I'd have booed that match given Big Show was in it .

Hell, they should have had him squash Fandango. I mean Fandango gets in no offense at all kind of squash. Or any offense gets no-selled at the least. Instead they give Reigns "babyface in peril" moments. In a match against comedy jobber FANDANGO? Really?!?! I'm sorry but Fandango is NEVER going to smell even the upper mid-card. He shouldn't be shown as belonging anywhere near the ring with someone who's supposed to be getting a serious main-event push.

What mid carder in the attitude era do you think shouldve gotten a push to the main event?

WWE actually thinks people care about Big Show. I don't get it either.

Test, especially in late 1999. Give him a one day title reign and give Big Show the belt later.

 

[DontshowfearBunny]

Are there any current babyface/heel wrestlers who you think just dont have that type of face that matches their moral persona.

For example, I don't think Randy Orton has that good guy type of face.

 

[L@RISANO]

Rollins gets pinned for 2 SmackDown shows in a row(Ryback and Big Show)...is that an indication that WWE doesn't think their audience follows the show and thus the booking decisions on it doesn't matter?

 

[The Fabulous Rougeau's]

If (and I know it's a big if) Bryan is ready to compete and returns to the active roster in time for the Rumble does he win the event, or is there nothing that can stop Reigns in the Rumble?

Not off the top of my head.

Either that or they don't think wins/losses matter. I can accept that line of thinking, but when you have the announcers CONSTANTLY bringing up results, it kind of defeats the purpose.

If (and I know it's a big if) Bryan is ready to compete and returns to the active roster in time for the Rumble does he win the event, or is there nothing that can stop Reigns in the Rumble?

There's something that can. I just don't think it does.

 

[Hard Hit Prince]

If you had to give a babyface turn to The Wyatt Family, in what moment of the year, would you've done it?

 

[klunderbunker]

Right before the split in October or so.

 

[Vageena Hertz]

Did Matt Hardy and Edge ever make up?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not that I know of but I've never heard of any more bad blood between them.

 

[L@RISANO]

Are people going overboard with their reactions on hearing about a "mighty mouse" gimmick for Adrien Neville?
I can see something like him being an Underdog like Daniel Bryan rather than what people are thinking, that he will be in a mask/cape and tights...
