Yeah I'm fine with this one personally. My only complaint will be that it'll end up a thirty minute "epic" Triple H match and he always has better matches with smaller guys than with meatheads (Jericho, Angle, Benoit, Bryan, etc)
-Triple H vs Batista needs to be no more than 15 minutes. - Kofi vs Daniel Bryan needs to be 20+ Minutes - Becky vs Charlotte vs Rond needs to be 20+ Minutes
15 min in ring? Because 15 minutes will probably be HHH’s Schwarzenegger movie inspired intro in itself
Man I hope everyone is pumped for the Beth/Natalya vs Tamina/Nia match at Mania!!! That shit better be on the preshow at least.
The Saudis are seriously considering allowing the women to wrestle at their events this year which is why nothing has been mentioned of a 2nd Evolution ppv surprised they haven't made this an annual event after its success last year
lol at thinking a HHH mania match will go under 15 minutes. HHH and Dave will go between 25 and 30 minutes. Kofi is a good story but his solo in ring stuff is pedestrian. Give me a hot 10-15 minutes, get Kofi that pop and have him drop the belt the following Smackdown or PPV. I mean in one promo she can articulate the story that on screen WWE has fucked up. I have no doubt in my mind that we are going to see Stephanie align with Ronda ala Stone Cold/Vince from WM 17 and screw Becky because Vince has no fucking clue how to book new original and entertaining story lines anymore. I'm sure in the next few weeks Stephanie will make herself special guest referee to get us where she can screw over becky during the match to help ronda. They should've never removed Paige. Smackdown was fine and people who tuned in have been loving the show. Getting Corbin off RAW was smart.. People are tired of the authority heel figure and all they did was just make Vince, Steph and soon Shane that on both shows now. I was cool with the triple threat up to the last RAW and Fastlane... Its now pure trash. Bryan was ice cold as a returning baby face. People where more into the chant vs him and that was because they hadn't seen him in the ring. He was away for way to long. I'm fine with the change in direction. You can still do the match down the road when both eventually turn again. Daniel is going to be a crazy baby face at the end of his heel run. Not saying you do but I read people who fucking love wrestle kingdom thats 5+ hours long but turn around and shit on Mania for being the same length. Its long yes but I hate the idea of splitting it into two nights. I get why its long as they want to put everyone on the card because without question the most eyes on the product in a single night is Mania. Plus the payday for the wrestlers but still if you hate the length just skip the preshow most of the time there isn't jack shit on it worth watching anyways. My guess is Lita and Trish turned down the match. I would assume Beth is taking the role of "past legend" and we will see a Smackdown tag team or a NXT tag team added to a fatal four way for the Tag Team Titles.
With all the Cena/R-Truth stuff + Joe inserting Cena in his promo past tile win I would expect this to be our Mania match. I did see someone float a Cena vs Roman match... Not thrilled with it and I want Dean to turn on Roman tonight and let that be the match for those two. Dean's leaving so he will do the job. Roman avenges the shit stuff Dean has done so it cleans up that story and Roman gets his return moment in the middle of the card.
Good to see Shelton Benjamin back on tv even though he lost EDIT: guess they’re back to burying Finn Balor again, smh
Uhmm why are they cutting to people cheering and showing kids holding Ronda signs as she comes out? Isnt she supposed to be a heel who hates the fans?
Heel Ronda, I love it. EDIT: Dana Brooke is still on tv 2X EDIT: gotta respect Dana for speaking the real
Dana Brooke....where did she come from? Her face looks different. Not sure if a ton of makeup or if shes had some work done
Something about she’s not gonna let Ronda sit back and disrespect the business, the women of the locker room and the wwe universe. Even admitted that even though she’s not on tv and doesn’t receive very many matches, she’s proud to have worked her ass off to get here (WWE)
That looked so bad. Crowd doesnt care about this at all. Nia may be my least favorite wrestler in WWE. She is so bad at everything
Top like 5 buttons unbuttoned on the shirt, a glitter jacket over it, nose ring and sunglasses inside....Batista really has the heel look down
I'm not saying you did, but weren't we just discussing in this thread that WWE needs to use jobbers or jobbers to the stars more often, to avoid having the same matches every week?
Whew boy this is bad. Give me what I want. No. Give it to me. No. You know what I want. Give it it to me. No. Give it to me. Okay.
I was thinking about this while watching some random old pay per view recently but I miss when the wrestling matches were, well wrestling matches. Feels like now most of the big time matches have turned into giant spots for just crazy bumps. Never much cared for Brett Hart but rewatching him work on a leg so he could put them in a sharpshooter was great. I don’t need to see anybody else go through the barricade again.
Dana has always looked way different in press/Arnold Classic stuff. She definitely looked like she had less of the ridiculous caked on WWE makeup, but she also looked she was thinner. Probably in a cut for the Arnold Classic? I'm not sure when that is but would make sense.
It’s kind of crazy to think about how Roman beat cancer and came back in half the time it takes people to come back from ACLs and shit
It’s taken me a long time to come to terms with this and it’s tough to admit but I’m attracted to Dana Brooke. There I’ve said it, bring on the jokes
It’s good to know that Renee remains an objective sports journalist when her husband is getting stabbed in the face by pencils meer feet away
