It's funny that "Reigns beats Brock at Mania" has been more or less set in stone for almost a full year but they don't appear to have a plan for after Reigns is actually champ.

Dave's speculating that Cena/Rusev at Mania could be an I Quit match ![]() gently caress, I hope he's wrong. I know Cena's going to win, and that's fine, but please no more Cena matches with that stip.

I'd actually really want to see Cena/Rusev as a LMS. "I Quit", not so much, but it'd make sense with that finish.

I just hope it's the modified I Quit match I suggested for Rusev/Swagger at SummerSlam where to win, Cena or Rusev must make the other say that America or Russia, respectively, is the best.

It feels sometimes that the WWE is Vince's personal fanfiction with the guy getting the biggest push being his Mary Sue. Cena is getting too old and broken to play with, Vince needs a new self-insert. Also I re-watched the Shield documentary on the Network, its pretty hilarious how everyone is falling over themselves complimenting Reigns. Ambrose and Rollins eh, they're ok, but REIGNS. Wow. Dude is THE NEXT BIG THING. He has IT.

A novel idea would be for Rusev to continue his streak rather than be fed to the all consuming Cena regardless of the stip.

Sigma posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IW2GVQlTdBg I can't help but read a good bit of frustration with his booking in that promo. Also lol @ Tom saying that Dean won by DQ Also it is completely fine for Rusev to have his streak broken by Cena at mania, they just need to not do that thing they always do with heels once Cena has vanquished them and that's drop them down the card like a stone and stop giving them poo poo to do.

Last night I honestly thought they were starting a subtle referee angle with the BNB/Ambrose DQ finish, the Dust Bros. finish, and the 10-count in the main event But no, everything is just dumb

However, you realize that if they do that, then the only one left to beat him is Reigns. I would rather take the Cena loss. Just make it work like Cena/Umaga http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x17acl1_royal-rumble-2007-john-cena-vs-umaga-last-man-standing-match-for-on-wwe-championship-match_sport Perfect Monster vs Babyface feud where the Monster still looks like a murderous beast

In theory a Cena/Rusev I Quit match makes a lot of sense. In execution, however, it would be the typical WWE I Quit match where Rusev punches Cena once and then immediately runs over to grab a mic, then asks Cena if he quits, Cena goes,"no ![]()

Rusev wins by never being able to say "I quit" in English clearly enough for the ref to call it.

Has Vince Russo posted some rewrite of Fast Lane that is somehow worse than what actually happened last night? I can only hope.

DEAR RICHARD posted:Rusev can quit and still be undefeated. Well he can't, because that's a submission (he's already been defeated by Roman Reigns, he just hasn't been pinned or submitted yet) but that's not the issue my post is making - I'm saying that WWE's I Quit matches are generally terrible because they destroy the flow of the match with the way they halt every 5 seconds to ask whether the guy quits yet or not. Same problem they have with Last Man Standing matches, where every move is considered a potential 10 count.

An I quit match would be terrible. Not only is at an automatic LOL CENA WINZ, but actually hurts Rusev more than taking a pinball. This is, unless Cena literally is rolling over him with an eighteen wheeler. Also Roman Reigns sucks and has the gas tank of an RC car.

Easy answer for I Quit match: Rusev passes out (Mirroring Cena passing out at Fast lane) and can't say I quit and therefore didn't really lose. Plus it sets up a neat story beat where Cena echoes Rusevs victories back on him oh crap why am I fantasy booking arrrgh....

Or better yet, Rusev beats Cena clean in a match without any silly stipulations, and then becomes Hoss Supreme. But that's crazy talk. Rapadoo will clearly prevail in the Bay Area.

Same problem they have with Last Man Standing matches, where every move is considered a potential 10 count. It's a shame too, because the 1999 Royal Rumble "I Quit" match is so good because The Rock and Mankind used those pauses to just ceaselessly trash-talk each other. If you can get past the barrage of unprotected chairshots at the end, it's a really entertaining match. With them scripting everything now, I doubt they'd let any of their wrestlers get away with that.

Because you know ways to get out of this feud with both dudes looking good. there are a lot of ways, but you know the WWE'll do it in a way to gently caress it all up, even though the WWE has done it right in the past.

It would take some new level of stupidity for this to be an actual finish on a WM match but I'd love to see it.

Cena will make Rusev quit, Bryan will lose the curtain jerker, Reigns will beat Brock and Rollins, Goldust will retire, Stang will win, Kane and Show will co-win the Andre Battle Royal and win the tag belts too, and the post-Mania Raw will be the least-watched Raw in history I'm excited for it all personally

I feel a bit bad for Reigns actually... dude's hosed now, when he's booed out of Wrestlemania, and on the Raw after, it's gonna be held against him, He's being Luger/Warrior'd.

Cena got bigger boos at WM in 2006 than Reigns will probably get, and they stuck with him. Without the threat of something like WCW I don't think they are going to waver from "their guy" unless things become absolutely dire.
