WHO TAKES THE TITLE FROM HHH...

[the_peoples_adam]

Last Monday night on RAW during the opening segment Stephanie said that her husband is not just ' The Man' but he is more than The Man..I personally felt that as a straight jab against Seth Rollins..
HHH went on to say that he is not giving away the title unless everyone learns to respect The Authority..I think that Roman is not going to go through HHH at WM32 but it will be a returning SETH ROLLINS that will defeat HHH maybe at Summerslam which is what id personally love to see..
So whats your thoughts..Do Roman overcome all odds and beat HHH at WM32 or is it going to be The Architect who returns as a top babyface who beats HHH somewhere down the road..Or is it going to be someone else..Share..

Seth Rollins returning at Wrestle Mania? Won't happen, he's going to be out till around July/August this year so he MIGHT be back for Summerslam.

I do beleive HHH will put Reigns over at Mania though.

 

[BestIntheWWE]

Roman Reigns will beat HHH at Wrestlemania for the WWEWHC, that's just how its going to go. It makes the most sense that the storyline between them ends at the biggest event of the year, and theres no way that HHH walks out of this program with the belt over Reigns.

I do think that HHH will face Seth Rollins at Summerslam, but it won't have the title on the line, just a returning Rollins looking for revenge against the authority.

 

[Greg4WWE]

It's already obvious Roman goes over at Wrestlemania. But I guess Daniel Bryan winning at WM was pretty obvious as well a few years back.

 

[YatesA]

Although Reigns isn't nearly as over as Punk was at the time. we don't want another Punk 2.0, Punk handled it as he was so over but if Triple H beats Reigns clean then whatever stock he has may just fade.

 

[laodaron]

I can't see anyone taking the belt from HHH, maybe even until Summerslam. I'm pretty sure that most of the brass were happy with Lesnar having the belt and not fighting every PPV, so maybe they're trying that on another guy, to see if that method is transferable.

Eventually, I think I'd like to see Rollins take the belt as a babyface at Summerslam, and then turn that into a babyface Rollins v. heel AJ Styles feud.

The only reason "Mr Overrated" himself, aka Phil "CM Punk" Brooks was so over is because the IWC has a man crush on him, take that away and he'd be a nobody.

And truthfully, he never really was that over. They gave him EVERYTHING, and he couldn't ever turn it into raw "overness".

That's possible, but it's something I hope we don't have to see. I didn't like the idea of Brock (contractually) taking the world title belt into cold storage.....and even more, I didn't think other fans would like that concept. Apparently, I was wrong; there are fans who think the belt is defended too much. Live & learn, I suppose.

Meanwhile, I can't see Triple H performing in the ring past WM32. I think he loses the belt.....and returns to the front office. If the plan is for him to have a couple of title defenses before WM32 in which he keeps the belt due to self-enforced political directives, his reign still ends for good in April.

Who will take the title? Well, I've been advocating that an evil John Cena wins it, either from Triple H or Roman Reigns. If Cena isn't part of it, either Roman Reigns wins.......or a returning Seth Rollins gets it done......as a face.

Then, the field will be left for Reigns and Rollins to feud, hopefully with Roman turning bad. With both reversing their long-standing attitudes, the war would be on.

 

[MWRedskins]

this is actually quite easy to predict to me....as much as i would love to see a returning Seth Rollins (whenever he comes back) winning the championship or for Dean Ambrose to go to WM and beat Triple H, i just can't see anyone but Roman Reigns winning the championship. the major story is Roman vs. Triple H and has been since the day that Reigns injured Triple H. if Triple H beats Reigns, i will be shocked and it will do more harm than good for Reigns.

 

[Dead-Angel]

Well I have a wild prediction HHH run continues till Summerslam where he loses it to returning Seth Rollins

 

[R@J]

this is my thought; or rather how i will book WWEWHC match at wrestlemania:
At fastlane i think wwe would have ambrose turn/back stab reigns so he would get more over with the fans because so far both ambrose and lesnar are way more over than reigns.
however, i would actually have ambrose pin reigns in that mach thereby picking up the win at fastlane and go onto wrestlemania to challenge HHH.
At wrestlemania reigns would screw ambrose and allow HHH to retain, setting up a feud between ambrose and reigns for summerslam and aligning reigns with the authority.
the next night on RAW during HHH celebration, seth Rollins interrupt and attacks HHH, setting up a match between those two at summerslam for the championship with rollins walking out the champion.
however the flaw is that reigns and lesnar would be left without a 'date' at wrestlemania...so we know taker will make a return for wrestlemania, i will have taker return at fastlane after the match and take reigns with him saying that reigns will be his next victim.
for lesnar well i will have ????? (didnt think of him as yet)

 

[Woodstuff]

And truthfully, he never really was that over. They gave him EVERYTHING, and he couldn't ever turn it into raw "overness".

Are you trolling, or just incredibly stupid? Punk was and still is THE most over wrestler of the past 10 years. D.Bryan is a close second, sure. But Punk was reaching SCSA/The Rock level over before they turned him heel.

On topic, obviously Reigns is winning at 'mania. HHH winning would be too big of a curve ball, considering it would make 0 sense for him to keep the strap heading into the new wrestling year.

 

[justinept]

And truthfully, he never really was that over. They gave him EVERYTHING, and he couldn't ever turn it into raw "overness".

So tired of this claim. Punk's original following had a ton to do with the niche audience that adores the Indy guys. The same can be said for a number of guys such as Daniel Bryan, Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, AJ Styles and a number of the NXT guys...

But in the case of Punk - as well as Bryan (and Ambrose to a lesser degree) - their popularity with the niche audience grew to the mainstream level. No one can deny that Punk was the hottest figure in pro wrestling in the weeks following the 'pipe bomb' promo. At that point, a niche audience of fans weren't cheering for Punk because of his indy background. The vast majority of the fans were cheering him because he brought an electricity to MNR that hadn't been seen much since the Attitude Era. That promo reminded people that wrestling could be edgy at times, that the WWE was willing to bring a certain amount of reality back into its program.

But then what happened? They took everything people loved about Punk and used it to build up other guys. For example:

1) He got thrown into a program with Triple H and Kevin Nash. During the course of that program, he was beaten by Triple H... and laid out multiple times by Kevin Nash. The payoff? Triple H defeated Kevin Nash in a ladder match. Seriously... they took the most over guy on their roster and used it to build a feud between a 42-year old executive and his 52-year old best friend. And in case we weren't throwing enough cold water on Punk during this time, Punk - who had essentially ascended to mainstream status by calling the entire McMahon family (including Triple H) a bunch of morons - went on MNR and told Triple H that he considered him a friend. Hell, they had a tag team match together - which they lost...

2) Punk got over by saying and doing things that went against the authority. But with Punk basically siding with Triple H, the WWE needed a new anti-authority figure. Enter Miz and R-Truth. Two loose canons who ran roughshod on the WWE during these months. Not only did they defeat Triple H and Punk in a tag-team match during this period, but they also laid out CM Punk during his WWE Championship rematch. Did Punk ever get retribution on these guys? Nope... that was left to John Cena and The Rock who squashed them at Survivor Series.

3) With Triple H being fired by the board of directors, due to the Awesome Truth angle, and a new heel authority figure in place ... Punk was finally in place to challenge the authority as a face. From December through February, John Laurinaitis tried to screw Punk out of the title. While this wasn't the primary program in early 2012 --- Cena vs Kane headlined the two events prior to 'Mania --- it did have a good place on the card. The payoff? Well, once Cena was done wrestling main events against Kane, The Rock and Lesnar - he finally came to Punk's aid, standing up for him and taking down John Laurinaitis in the main event of Over the Limit.... Actually, cross that - Laurinaitis won with the help of the Big Show, which set-up the main event for No Way Out where Cena defeated Show to get Laurinaitis fired.

People just want to look at Punk's long title reign as evidence that the WWE was behind him, but were they? People wanted to see Punk take down Triple H, but instead Triple H went over on Punk - and not only that, but Punk became friends with him immediately after. Then people wanted to see Punk take down Nash, but instead, that job fell to Triple H. Then people wanted to see Punk take down Laurinaitis, but that job fell to Cena. The first half of his title run was a complete let down because the WWE refused to actually give the fans what they wanted. Triple H refused to play the villain and they refused to take Cena from the main event. That's why his heel run was necessary - because wrestling against Cena (and later, The Rock) - was the only way the WWE was going to let him defend the title in the main event.


But as for the original thread of this post --- Reigns is going over at WrestleMania. The WWE isn't going to put this guy in back-to-back main events and not let him go over at either. That would completely kill any chance he has of ever getting over. Legitimately, the only way he doesn't go over at 'Mania is if he's not in the main event. And since they spent the past 6 weeks building Triple H and Roman Reigns - and since Triple H has the WWE Title - it's just not plausible for the WWE go to with any other main event outside Triple H vs Reigns for the title.

 

[The Samoan Heritage]

I hope Triple H wins at Wrestlemania. Yes, Reigns winning is the most logical decision, but no. That is rid one seem to realise that if Reigns wins at Wrestlemania, it will be his 3rd title reign in the last 6 monthsiculous. He just had his first world title win in November and possibly five months later will have his third one.
- Reigns Winning the title at Wrestlemania wouldn't be horrible but wwe could do better. I personally think he's done great. He isn't the next "face" of the company wwe had hoped for, but they've solidified him as a main eventer, something wwe has desperately needed for a while.(now they need to keep creating main eventers and not stop on Reigns and Rollins).
- Ambrose is the dark horse and probably the most over guy on the roster, but i'm far from being sold on him as a main eventer. Heck, I can barely take him serious as the IC champion.
- Lesnar...been there, done that, and am over it. Tired of him being booked as superior to everyone else on the roster. Sheamus, Rusev, and even Big E should've been booked as more of a threat to Lesnar than they were during their encounters with him. They aren't 3mb, stop treating your current superstars as jobbers to feed to Lesnar.
- SETH ROLLINS! this is who I feel should take the title off of Triple H. It can go either way with Rollins when he returns though. Wwe needs a top face and they need a top heel, Rollins can fit in both categories. But I would much rather see Triple H(c) vs Rollins than Reigns(c) vs Rollins at any PPV.
But overall who takes the title off of Triple h depends on what direction they are going to go. There are others that aren't even being mentioned such as Owens, Wyatt, and Aj Styles that may have a hand in the future of the WWE World heavyweight championship.

I'm sorry for any one that tried to figure that out. My 1st paragraph some how got jumbled up when posting. Basically, Its ridiculous that Reigns will win his 3rd World title in a span of 6 months of winning his 1st.

 

[BestSportsEntertainer]

It was a probably a hint towards a Seth Rollins vs. Triple H feud. That was the plan before Rollins' injury.

It won't be for the WWE Championship though. I could also see it being heel vs. heel at first with Rollins slowly turning face in the proccess.

Regardless, it should be a great feud and a nice rub for Rollins for when he returns around SummerSlam.

 

[Hyorinmaru]

Well this question is a bit silly.

The answer is Roman Reigns, there is no other answer. Everything that's been done has lead to Triple H vs Roman Reigns at WrestleMania. Reigns has done everything except get that defining WrestleMania moment. There's no need for Triple H to have the title post WrestleMania and giving Reigns his moment isn't a bad thing at all.

 

[Azane]

Roman Reigns is winning it, 3 time world champion BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! as loud as possible, as not even the combined Triple H and Vince McMahon heat can get him over.

Roman Reigns, you know, the Underdog, that gets beat up for 20 minutes, then does 2 moves and pins the guy, Roman Reigns, who almost overcame the odds and almost won the Royal Rumble, while napping for 30 minutes in the middle.

They want him over, and damnit, they'll get him over, even if the RAW Ratings are almost dipping under 3 million when Roman Reigns is on screen.

Triple H Vs Seth Rollins was in the works for almost a year, Roman Reign's stepped in when Seth got injured, We predicted that Rollins vs HHH for the Title was happening at Mania, and it's happening with the understudy.

 

[WorstWrestlingExcrement]

It's already obvious Roman goes over at Wrestlemania. But I guess Daniel Bryan winning at WM was pretty obvious as well a few years back.

Purple reign is not going over HHH put it through your mind ! HHH is keeping it and will lose it to Seth Rollins@ SS 2016 which makes more sense a full circle indeed !

 

[rmp0012002]

Reigns is taking the belt back from HHH at WM. Winning the belt from Sheamus didn't make him Vince's next superstar like they planned so they're hoping that beating HHH does. You either have "it" or you don't and Reigns doesn't.

 

[laodaron]

Not that it isn't possible, but I just don't see the WWE giving Reigns the belt at WrestleMania. I think HHH wins, I think that the story out of WrestleMania is Roman v. Ambrose, I think that Cena returns and challenges HHH for the belt at some point, maybe MitB. Cena jobs out to HHH, and when the show is going off the air, Rollins' music hits, and he stands on the ramp looking out at HHH.

I couldn't see Roman losing to HHH at Mania. It would be a huge waste of all the adversity they put Roman through.

 

[midgensa]

Roman HAS to win the strap at WrestleMania. Otherwise, that is three years of investment into a character gone.

They can easily turn him heel after by having him turn on Ambrose to keep the title or something. Have a returning Rollins be a face and go after him around SummerSlam.

There are a lot of options, but Reigns FAILING at WrestleMania AGAIN is not one of them. Does not make any sense, no matter what you think of Reigns.

As much as I love Rollins ... Reigns LOOKED GOOD against Lesnar last year and I think they had a chance to really push him with a straight-up win over the Beast. They missed it and think HHH is as good.

He isn't.
