honestly if a dece ten minute match with AJ is what it takes for Taker to be satisfied with his career and go the gently caress away it's worth the sacrifice

Taker will come back for every single Saudi show until he dies.

I get the idea but geez when was the last time AJ had a good match, especially on a PPV? Cena?

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

He just announced on his Twitter he is moving to HW. He is in that position where he is visually bigger than the junior HWs in njpw. He looks ridiculous next to Robbie.

Brock/Drew eh maybe good
Reigns/Fiend kill me
Charlotte/Rhea bleh
Shayna/Becky gently caress off
Edge/Orton good story, match can gently caress off
Styles/Taker retire.
Cena/Elias loving lol
Naomi/Bayley bleh x2

There is literally zero possible tag team arrangements on either brand that excites me.
Nobody I care about winning either battle royal
Braun is poo poo
Andrade rey humberto angel should be a tlc or something
Ko seth joe blah blah loving blah
And I'm still convinced we get at least 35 minutes of HHH.


This sounds like death.

I'm half convinced they're deliberately booking the blandest and most boring event possible so that the crowd won't have any energy left to poo poo on Reigns beating the Fiend with a single spear

Also something something 300-man roster but definitely need minimum 8 1-on-1 matches on the one show where everyone wants a spot

Like yeah the days of a billion multiman clusterfucks sucked, but as a thing to get everyone booked on the show that you at least pretended mattered, it at least made sense. Now you have more people than ever, aka it's the one time to specifically not get rid of that habit, you would think

Spear him so hard the mask comes off

Brock/Drew should be a good hoss-off. Shayna and Becky has potential. Edge and Orton will be good though their storytelling, maybe not so much wrestling quality.

The rest though. Eesh.

This will be lucky to reach an average of #BO on the #BOOTY scale, though Naomi/Bayley is near #JOJO on average, but not for workrate.

If we get "actually giving a poo poo" Randy Orton it should be a good match, 'cause he's a really good wrestler if he wants to be, but if we get the other Randy Orton, yeah, it's gonna suck too. I worry about Shayna and Becky not meshing well for some reason, and I also am afraid they won't really pull the trigger on Drew.

Naomi's entrance is literally the only thing out of the 8 hours of that Wrestlemania that I'd go out of my way to watch. And it'll probably happen in broad daylight on the preshow.

What would be the HHH match this year? Gargano or something?

I'm more confident in Orton being able to deliver than a 46 year old Edge who hasn't had a real match in 9 years.

This is my worry. I think making it some sort of no DQ match would help mask some of Edge's rustiness. But I think those two can put on a really good storytelling match.

Goldberg/Reigns would mean that they made a smart(er) choice, and also that they decided against making a WCW guy look like a geek again, which is why I'm coming around to the idea it's not happening
