I've got some new watchers coming over, does anyone know of some decent videos or podcasts that give people a decent primer on the show tonight?

If they don't have any objections to reading a lengthy-ish blog post, this might help: http://offtherecordglobe.areavoices.com/2016/03/30/an-idiots-guide-to-wrestlemania-32/

To be fair, they have made a fair amount of progress regarding the IC belt from last year's "R-Truth has literally stolen the Intercontinental Title! Oh no!" shenanigans.

Now, arguably that's been done while they've simultaneously utterly buried the US Title, but WWE gonna WWE.

The WO podcast today is talking about a bunch of surprising results or surprising people tonight. Hopefully it turns out to be a fun show regardless of the title match.

It's the heel turn I tells ya! I definitely won't be groaning as a face Reigns goes clean over Triple H even after the latter pulls out every dirty trick in the book.

Guys do you think any of the moments at Wrestlemania could be Wrestlemania moments I wonder if any of these Wrestlemania moments will be Wrestlemania moments if only someone could point them out when they occur
