HHH's entrance was kinda sad. The big goofy trike, the long pause at the top, the wobbly line of cops, the slow tootle around the ring with a big scowl on, the sad revving at the end. Nice to see him tone it down a little as he begins his Centrum Silver years, but that had all the dramatic impact of a flip book. Does Stephanie normally repeatedly overpower top draws with her mighty grip? At least the crowd was completely dead for the mach.

mkay0 posted:Brock/Goldberg was absolutely a classic. The storytelling and execution since Survivor Series has been outstanding. I hated the SS match at the time, loving love it in hindsight. I'd agree if it wasn't leading to a loving year of part-time champ, Suplex City Bullshit culminating in Reigns/Lesnar II in New Orleans a year from now.

So, I'm gonna guess that Randy/Bray got gutted for time and give them a mulligan on that one. And that pretty much leaves me with only one problem and that being the main event sucking. Besides those two things, that Mania ranged from decent to extremely loving good with way more good than bad. Just, please do something, anything different with Roman tomorrow. If he comes out and says "with all due respect" one more loving time, I will throw myself into loving traffic.

mkay0 posted:Maybe it's just a job to Taker? You're extrapolating a great deal onto his real life personality. How much do we know about his actual passion to have good matches? Very little, honestly. Dude is easily the GOAT at keeping his real personality kayfabe. You are absolutely right. I have no idea and am talking out of my rear end. Just trying to make sense of that horrendous match. But hey, as you say he could have walked behind the curtain and yelled "it's partytime bitches!" And started drinking while laughing at .gifs of the match. In fact, thank you. That's how I am going to imagine it now. Art. Jesus I needed to stop drinking two hours before I did.

I don't get the hype for the Hardy's in today's age and I lived through their years so I know they're good. Things will turn on them soon and I hope they stay on RAW. This being said, I watched Mania until Cena-Miz and it sounds like a good choice though I missed Lesnar (YAY CHAMP GO GO GO STILL GREAT) and Smackdown Women's (who won? Alexa? Jack?) Overall snowflakes... Half 1: **** Half 2: ** don't care from the sounds of it, Verdict: My stomach and body hurt from the party feast for one...I'm going to sleep until work tomorrow. Even went out to my favorite bar.

Professor Funk posted:Another thing about that GIF: just look at the complete absence of reaction from the crowd. That THAT spot (or the potential for it, at least) didn't pop the people in the front row is pretty nuts. i mean i had no idea it was supposed to be a tombstone until you guys mentioned it, i wouldnt be surprised if most people thought roman was going for a powerbomb

I think we are both saying the same thing in the sense that the spot should have never been called in 2017

Also Seth/HHH was good but underwhelming and Seth 100% should have sledgehammered Trips into Steph into the Pedigree rather than the superkick. It was good and the right man won but it didn't have the gently caress YOU finality it needed. Curb stomp also would have worked.

I don't disagree, but, the Pedigree Duel and Steph going into a table was so cool and this one could've gone SO, SO, SO badly that I don't think I have it in me to nitpick it. What a tool. Good job letting your three hugest stars run off to WWE immediately after you took over, jackass.

I predict in the year of our lord 2017 to 2018 to next Wrestlemania Reign is going to be gone and they're going to ask Taker back for ONE MORE MATCH...against Finn Balor to retire him. Or Asuka. Asuka makes more sense and is more terrifying.

I would really love to see the prenup Nikki had to sign before Cena agreed to propose. I bet it looks like War and Peace.

The relief that I feel about Seth being presumably hunky-dory is prodigious. Hope he works light for another month or two. Let the returning Finn and/or Shinsuke if he comes up do the heavy face lifting in the meantime. Cass had to hold his hands over his mouth during the Hardys entrance to conceal a gigantic grin.

I don't really watch anymore but hey watching the Mains for free is a deal. I like everything and didn't think it was that bad? Reigns wasn't even terrible. Yeah he's not the right choice for a Taker match at all and I'd rather it have been Cena but whatever. He's gotten way better. The hate feels kinda overboard at this point. If you really watch week to week at this point, in the year 2017, either accept him or go away. It seems dumb to keep this same thing going for years like it will ever change.

The big fear here used to be that Cena would retire Taker, that the good feed would go to the Golden Goose yet again rather than build an up an comer to take Cena's place.
