So is that 9 matches + the rumble announced for the oil baron mania?


This shows gonna be 10 hours long

The rumble has to be a solid hour on its own, right?

It should be shorter than Mania either way without the grand entrances, and I guess there's still an hour pre-show for them to exile the Cruiserweights. Either way, my wife is off so this is a fine excuse for me to take off and it sounds better than work.

30-man Rumbles are already an hour long, this one will last at least two.

I'm happy they remixed it so it goes from F_A_B_U, etc. straight to the track. When she first debuted there was this dead couple of seconds that succeeded in showing off that she was getting zero heat from the crowd. (They should do the same thing to the Revival's song, IMO)

I feel like Becky just suffers from there being too many women on the roster for the amount of time they get and being a face on the show that only has 2 hours to fill.

Also nepotism

I came here to chew bubblegum and quote 'They Live', and I'm... at an impasse.
Go back to coming down to the ring, picture in picture promos. They already did those for old-school wrong and they do a great job of getting the home audience and the live audience something different.

I keep telling myself that but I'm also worried they'll turn him heel. I know a lot of people here would fap over it but I like having a face I relate to. I adore Seth and Finn and Braun but for some loving reason I cannot explain, I've been watching since November 1998 when I was 11, almost 12, and I've never had as genuine of a desire to see a wrestler succeed and get adulation as Dean. Punk was close. But I wish I understood it. :shobon:


I'm with you, I dipped out on WWE For a bit and the whole Shield/Bryan/Punk timeframe got me back interested and Dean became my guy, I was a Piper fan as amid so maybe that's it, but I could never really explain it either.
