Also who is this we, I don't necessarily believe that, at least not to the extent you're making it sound. Chris James 2 posted:Yeah, I am in no way implying (nor do I think Alain is) that HHH is responsible for Reigns' reaction or booking Okay then we're talking different things. I'd 100% buy HHH is loving this poo poo but I don't think he engineered it either.

If he actually creates a product good enough to warrant that rep I could not give a gently caress less about his motivations.

Shane McMahon's knees still work so he should have no problem defeating The Undertaker at WrestleMania. That may just be his Dunks, however.

I also enjoyed Shane basically bringing in Crusader Kings II and that WWE has had Agnatic Gavelkind succession all along, so he and his MALE children are the rightful heirs to the throne.

It's OK in this case because it's extremely funny to me HHH puts over Daniel Bryan at Mania in a ridiculously hot program, gets cheered rapturously two years later for beating down the guy they've had earmarked as the next Cena since FCW. Amazing.

SamuraiFoochs posted:The Dean/Brock stuff was also fukken great IMHO You are correct, that was good too! I am more excited for Mania now honestly. Shane/Taker is so bizarre but it's gonna be cool and I really can't think of anyone that would be better. Also I agree with the Triple H 5-dimensional chess conspiracy theory, except I've been actively rooting for Roman's failure for a year+ so the concept is more awesome than objectionable, to me.

Seems weird that KO had no role tonight and while Y2AJ was neat, I sure hope that was a one-off. I'm fine with a ridiculous Shane/Undertaker match, but the stipulation seems to guarantee that Shane wins - and even though Shane is well-loved, him pinning Undertaker at WM does not strike me as a way to keep the fans on his side. Roman could be salvaged by coming back in a week or two and beating down HHH into an even bloodier mess, I think, but I doubt that's the direction WWE will go.

Might have to keep that dude only on Smackdowns because Julio Cruz posted:The crowds are only gonna get worse for Roman too. The last 4 Raws before Mania are Chicago, Pittsburgh, Philly and Brooklyn This dude is going to get eaten the gently caress alive.

I wonder if they even know what they're doing with the New Day for WM. They're the champs, but they're not really feuding with anyone right now, and the only two tag teams I can think of that could challenge for their titles at WM are currently feuding with each other.

The only way to salvage Roman is for him to turn heel by winning the title with a fingerpoke

The way to salvage Roman is to have him win at Wrestlemania clean and actually commit to the guy instead of flip-flopping on what the gently caress they want from him like they have seemingly every week since he came back from injury in 2014.

Yeah. Honestly if he's going to sink or if he's going to swim, it no longer matters if you don't actually go through with something at this point. And you can't take the chance on getting another indy scrub killed, we've already lost one for good and another for 4 more months because you keep refusing to make a decision either way. Pushing it off isn't helpful, temporarily replacing it is ruining people's careers. Either do it now, or never do it, but you have to make the call by Mania this time and you can't go back on it.

If he doesn't win, he's Lex Luger post-Yokozuna, and nobody is going to believe in him as a top guy ever, even if he does get over.
