I watched it with a chat and we all agreed we all saw the Rollins' cash in coming AFTER the match.

It happening during the match threw us all off and was perfect.

I heard his music and it still took me several seconds to put together it was Rollins' music and what was going on

For those of you who are excited because that was a really good wrestlemania, may I remind you last years was also really good and the product sucked rear end for a literal year straight afterward

Yeah Raw will probably be good tomorrow and then I dont anticipate anything good on TV

Can I just say I think Reigns deserves some props for his part in the main? I'm pretty sure some of that was at least quasi-shoot (dude lost a tooth, wrecked Brock's eye, and Brock ragdolled the gently caress out of him for like 15 minutes), and Reigns did that for ostensibly nothing, and I bet he was the first one to hug Seth in the back.

But yeah IMO the visual of him SMILING at Lesnar even as he was getting murdered was the coolest thing he's done in ages, and I honestly hope the Roman hate dies down some now that he took that beating and didn't win.

I think a lot of that stuff "didnt work" because Reigns was sort of forced into a heel role with the crowd not liking him but he was doing totally babyface things. So groggily laughing things off was a good thing to do overall. I thought he did a good job of coming back from crazy poo poo while not no-selling or doing like wink-at-the-camera stuff. It goes a long way to reversing his fan reaction but I think he really needs some sort of shift in his character, at the very least get your own song and a gear change or something. All the other guys in the shield changed so it strikes me as weird

It would go a long way if Reigns was put in a position to pull out more offensive stuff. He worked in the Shield because he only had like two minutes of his signature spots and he worked tonight because thats all the offense Lesnar let him have anyway. When he has to have an overly offensive match with Big Show or whatever poo poo doesnt work

What do people think DB's future is now? I thought they might keep the title on Brock and elevate the IC as a stand-in top belt, but now I have no idea.

Best case scenario, have solid matches with good midcard guys. Worst and probable case, lose a lot

I feel like the only reason Big Show won was because they wanted to have his name on the Andre trophy before he retires.

That trophy should get destroyed every year or there is no justice

I'm having a hard time thinking of the last time WWE had a conniving sneaky heel at all. Usually its just pricks who lose a lot, or last year pricks who beat Daniel Bryan with the help of corporate owner heels

Like it is cool classic booking to have a dude who gets beat in a straight match but uses lackeys and DQs and tricks to worm his way into title reigns and then takes a long time to get his comeuppance. I have no idea why they don't use it as often

I was honestly disappointed by Bray/Taker and I wonder how much of it was Bray's injury. The pace just seemed interminably slow.

Taker really cannot go anymore. He was selling everything like death because he was visibly gassed

Am I the only one who felt the HHH/Rousey bit lasted a thousand years? It was worse than the Undertaker match, which never got off the blocks, but it felt like they paused 40 seconds after every sentence.

I think it was played off like the ending to it would be surprising even though you could see everything coming from a mile away. Also I really hate when WWE talk about "making a wrestlemania moment" like its the loving MTV Awards and theyre just forcing all their "surprises"

I originally thought they should group Roman and Rollins for a little while but keep Ambrose face. After this though probably not but it would be best to get Roman heel again

Sigma posted:

Look at Brock Lesnar early-2000s versus Lesnar today. He went from a dozen power moves and a half dozen kinds of suplexes to two power moves, two suplexes, and his finisher. That is the current main event style, like it or not.

Brock doesnt need a moveset because he legit kills people. Roman doesnt do anything but his three moves and punches and stuff. Brock throws people like ragdolls

I thought it was cool how Rollins didn't go for the pin on Lesnar after the first curbstomp. Like he just knew it wouldn't work. He had to do another.

Yeah and even then "uhhhh should I pin him? it probably still wouldnt work Ill pin the other guy"

Oh and not to bring this one up again but since I mentioned it - I agree that Big Show won a meaningless battle royal. But I think him winning it kind of defines it as meaningless y'know? Like, if Mizdow had won, it would've been a nice burst of momentum and a cool moment that the crowd really really wanted. Instead...the Big Show won, so, .

I dont mind Mizdow not winning because in a way the crowd gets behind him more. But man I wish Kane and Big Show were gone years ago

He should have gotten a Mania match against Miz. Wouldn't have needed to be long or anything, but for all the great work he's done he deserved a real match on the main card.

I really hope they have their match at Extreme Rules because theyll probably drag it out long enough just on TV as it is

Does anyone else wonder if Roman told Brock he wanted to work stiff in order to make it look better? It really felt like they were close to legit brawling in the beginning and I could see it being Roman's idea because I buy him being a prideful dude who'd be willing to take an rear end-beating for the sake of the show.

Agreed 100%, I've said this to multiple people. WWE really did book everything about that main flawlessly. I seriously think I heard some cheers for him by the end and I don't think it was just the mic'ing.

Its very clear Brock can take liberties with certain guys based on an understanding (Cena, Reigns) and not others (Trips)

Probably just the fact that his colleagues got murdered and hes working with permanent Owen voice Byron then.

I get the overall impression with WWE that the PPVs have been mostly great or good due to the fact that Lesnar is in them and Heyman has sway on the booking. For example TLC was trash and had no Lesnar but Survivor series was awesome. rumble had that awesome main event and a horrible rumble. And the TV typically blows except for Lesnar (and Bryan making diamonds out of poo poo). Is there any chance of this at all
