Something I could actually guarantee for tonight's RAW. John Cena will NOT be there.

 

Def gonna be there now.

 

How much you want to bet? haha

 

thats one way to look at it... but i look of it as the ex wyatt members are champs and the 'leader' is relegated to helping Matt Hardy on the pre show.

 

Isn’t Cena leaving for a bit to do movie stuff?

 

Oh yeah I'm not expecting that, just fantasy booking.

 

the more and more i reflect i think it was a good show overall. Good solid middle of the road mania. There was a lotttttt i absolutely LOVED. So I have to give the mania its props.

 

Watching the broadcast of NXT. Holy hell, Dream and EC3 took so many insane bumps

Super stoked to see how Moon/Bayzler and Gargano/Ciampa played on TV.

 

Yeah this Mania was clearly better than the last two and right up there with 31 IMO

the only thing that really hurt last night was the bad main event and just the overall length of the show

 

This makes the booking make even less sense

 

They've been having those for years, brock wins every time

 

i think the AJ/Nak match is getting a bad wrap. I'm seeing way too many people go overboard and be hyperbolic saying the match didn't deliver or what not, and they'e focusing on the fact the crowd was "dead" as a reason why.

I agree that a hot crowd can make or hurt a match, but I think this is an example of an exception. It's a 7 hour show. At that point of the night the only thing the crowd REACTED to was Nicholas and REigns/Lesnar. IF we're saying its about crowd reaction then fuck, lesnar/reigns was 2nd best match of the night.

The crowd was only super mega hot for the first 2 matches, daniel's entrance, and rouesey.

I think Nak/AJ, while not a 5 star match, was good...especiaally now that we know it's the BEGINNING of the feud.

 

Was Vince mad that Brock cracked open Romans head with elbows? lol

 

what could Brock even be mad about? unless he thought the way the match was put together was bad (it was).

he got to murder the most pushed guy in the company

 

Says there’s a belief Brock went off script towards the end.

Could you imagine working with that mother fucker and he decides he’s gonna do what he wants

 

Brock probably thinking.... fuck, we need to try SOMETHING to get the crowd to care. Blood was desperate mode.

 

Vince/Bork confirmed?

 

Does Brock really bring in that many more viewers?

I have a hard time believing that he does.

 

In wrestling? No. People care about him when he first comes back and then its business as usual.

He is a much bigger draw in MMA than he is for WWE

 

Romans blood was thin as fuck, he was totally in on the bleeding, i'm having a hard time buying any of this

 

Who do you think opens up tonight's show? Roman or Brock/Paul. I feel like they want to do the same thing as last year and have Roman come out and get booed for 32 minutes before speaking.

 

brock was a draw (For the first 2 years) but dear god its just going too far.

Maybe that's the point and Vince now sees he might have a mega heel on his hand again.

 

I'll say Angle/Rousey opens tonight. Talk about the match and then let Kurt layout the show.
