Is this the biggest upgrade from on-paper quality to in-action quality? Because at lunch today this was going to be the worst PPV.

I think that makes Cena and Undertaker look more chumpish than Lesnar. Roman just took more than both of them combined and was still in the running.

they want you to think roman is very good.

I really wish Sting had not lost to HHH in a DX vs NWO match. There was so much wrong with that entire scene, I don't even understand it. Sting getting raised up by his buddies from... the NWO, then shaking hands with H at the end. What alternate universe did I stumble into??

Kawalimus: Jan 17, 2008; Better Living Through Birding And Pessimism

I complained in the WWE thread this past week about nothing feeling natural. Well I will commend them on that end part because they really made it feel like that! I totally was ready for Reigns to just win it right there and wasn't just thinking "aaaand in comes Rollins. Aaaand in comes Rollins". Even though I had said just earlier that I thought there was a decent chance of that since he had lost his match. So good on them. That's how it's done.

It could but it could at any point in time it just requires basic competence in booking and writing and poo poo which you shouldn't get your hopes up for long term.

tbh i would have preferred a double turn because heel Roman would be cool but that was almost as good

With that ending, I have a feeling Vince is digging his heels in with Reigns being The Guy.

Vince actually found a way to write his way out of Reigns being as over as a wet fart and still protect Lesnar. God bless that old bastard.

It wouldn't surprise me if Vince was forced to make that call from like Hunter and Steph seeing and hearing Mania boos probably helped that decision.
