WWE Wrestlemania XXVII Live Discussion

[LamaNamaneumi]

Doc with another top shelf LD.

I will be at my sisters tomorrow watching with the kids, I might make a post from my phone if the moment strikes.

Looking forward to the event, and over eating.

 

[The Man They Call WMD]

Honestly, the intro is so well done, it makes one wonder how you don't do that professionally. Well done

 

[Uncle Sam]

It makes the banner I made for another site pale in comparison. I made it on the basis that they don't like Michael Cole or - quelle surprise - John Cena:

 

[The Doctor]

Nah, yours is better, mine's loaded with stupid mistakes and things I should have done better.

I appreciate all the compliments, though, especially coming from you.

 

[Daniel]

A 'Mania without Money in the Bank. It just won't be the same.

 

[justinsayne]

Or it will be like it was before they had MITB every year, ya know like the first 20 Wrestlemanias

 

[Shocky]

A mania without MITB will probably be more watchable.

 

[justinsayne]

If MITB didn't have it's own PPV then I could see people having an issue with it, but the fact that we get two MITB matches in one PPV in July kinda makes having one on WM a bit overkill, it's completely unneeded here

 

[Benoit4ever]

Am i the only one that really hopes the has been kid is nowhere to be found on the wm ppv, i can't stand him in fact i hate him please just die already and let Trips carry the match like we all know he can and should

 

[ZeroVX]

I was originally going to watch this at the local theatre, but it turns out it's actually cheaper to get the PPV. So, I guess I'll be here after all.

 

[Fizzy]

Anybody else pissed we have to wait until Monday to see the HOF Ceremony? Don't know about you guys, but I fucking enjoy those. Some years I enjoy them more than Wrestlemania itself.

 

[X]

I'm with you Fizzy, they should totally do it live on USA, it would get good ratings and would be awesome to see instead of the highlight show before RAW. Oh well, the HOF ceremony this year sounded awesome so I can only hope the full version pops up online soon enough.

 

[justinsayne]

I'm pissed as well, watching the HoF the night before WM has become tradition, and now this year I'm going to miss it cause the highlight show is on while I'm at work Mon., if USA didn't want to air it tonight, then I don't see why WWE couldn't have just have streamed it on WWE.com then they still coulda done the highlight show Mon.

 

[Fizzy]

I agree. They used to stream one of the hours on WWE.com, and the other hour on USA. Even if USA didn't want to have it on tonight it isn't like the WWE is out of options. I highly doubt Sci-Fi had anything important going on tonight. They dropped the ball on this one.

 

[justinsayne]

What really sucks is with HBk and the Road Warriors this is one of the best HoF classes ever too, massive fucking failure on WWE's part

 

[Fizzy]

I have honestly been waiting for years for the Road Warriors to get in. They were the first wrestlers I ever saw. My dad showed me a video of them when I was young, and I was hooked. Every fucking year i'd say to him "Road Warriors better get in this year." It finally happens, and I can't watch it live? Bullshit...

 

[X]

At this point I think Vince and company should just start up a fund for their own television channel. Seriously. It doesn't have to even be a wrestling-themed channel (though it would obviously feature wrestling), they have SO MUCH archived footage and new content and it's not like they couldn't go out and easily buy some syndication rights as well, seriously, they need to hurry up and do that, because I think it could work. They know how to market, whether it be for wrestling or movies or whatever, I think it could work.

Okay, random as fuck wrestling channel rant over.

 

[Jay Sherman]

Still fucking struggling to to get this day off. I would pay for a fucking texting service for a short play by play for this one, if I can not get off.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

Will be watching this one on TV live so don't expect me to be here.

Also, Cody Rhodes actually went to the Hall of Fame last night with the face mask on...that's hilarious.

 

[Baller]

Hall of Fame was sick this year. Only one who got no pop was Sunny and Carey got booed.

 

[The Doctor]

Drew Carey is awesome. Haters gonna hate.

Less than twelve hours to go!!!!

 

[The Rob]

Officially pumped now. The wait is so nearly over.

 

[Fizzy]

God I cannot wait...

 

[Turd Ferguson]

No MITB, but regardless, this is a very strong Wrestlemania, and it should be better than last year's where it was basically a three match show. MITB last year was even a clusterfuck with too many people involved.

Looking forward to every match on the card. I bet even Punk will carry Orton to a watchable match that isn't a snoozefest like every Orton match.

 

[Daniel]

If MITB didn't have it's own PPV then I could see people having an issue with it, but the fact that we get two MITB matches in one PPV in July kinda makes having one on WM a bit overkill, it's completely unneeded here

It shouldn't have it's own PPV in July.

It allows midcard guys to get on the card at WrestleMania adding some excitement as to who will (in all likelihood) become a new world champion.

At the PPV, main eventers and upper midcarders are in it, meaning we're more likely to see a former-champion win and making the match lose some excitement.
