Is there any truth to the rumor going around that Rock is “99%” going to wrestle — not just appear — at Mania?

Given what happened previously you'd have thought it was Rousey and Rock vs. Steph and HHH if Rock was wrestling.

LU Ultima Lucha 4

Matanza lost a sacrifice match to Johnny Mundo and disappeared. If LU returns for a season 5, it won't be with Cobb, whose contract is up after season 4 finishes airing

Night one, Jack Strong (Jack Swagger) won Gift of the Gods

Night two, Pentagon Dark beat Marty the Moth to regain the LU title. Post-match Vampiro attacked Pentagon, with the help of Vampiro's master, AAA wrestler Australian Suicide. Jack Strong came out after, cashed in, and won the LU title to close season 4

It's amazing how efficiently this show has gone about killing any interest I had in it these last couple of seasons

I'd be shocked if he did, but given that they haven't really interacted I'd mark the hell out for Sami and Owens to take out Shane before the match (as well as they can without really messing him up due to his current health issues) and then Bryan comes out with new tag team partner THE ROCK and Sami and Owens poo poo their pants. It would also be a Wrestlemania surprise and I can't think of anything else surprising that would be good, and traditionally the surprises have involved celebrities anyway so why not.

Still, having the Rock in a match and not advertising it would be incredibly dumb from a business standpoint, so no way it's happening.

I does make me smile that I got accused of cock teasing with a cool Rock thing that'll 100% never happen, and now I feel exactly the same about this cool Rock thing that will 99% never happen.

Rocky's got half a dozen movies in preproduction right now, no way in hell his insurance lets him risk being hurt for weeks again just to get a cheap pop for Vince.

They might let him do something like the squash with Rowan. Maybe he pins Hawkins in like 10 seconds or something?

On a different note, do we have any buzz on who's getting the NXT NA title? I'd assume Cole, because there's literally no reason to have him pull double duty otherwise. Just throw in Ohno or one of the UK lads into the ladder match instead if you NEED 6 guys (you don't)

What possible reason would they have for a *surprise* Rock match? That's the kind of thing you advertise.

My guess is Rock's done with WWE for the foreseeable future. I seriously doubt they can afford his appearances any more

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



Not to mention that it’s super risky for him from a potential injury perspective when he’s making like 6 movies a year. Just not worth it.

So apparently the WWE App accidentally spoiled that Mallet Muchahcos/New Day/Usos is a TLC match. Some kind of ladder-y match at Mania has kinda become a tradition and looking at the card, if you wanna put a big TLC spotfest in, that's probably the match to do it.

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.



Having Harper and Rowan just throw people through things does sound pretty good

Field's still leading. It's one of the least predictable matches on the card, essentially. Numerous paths they could choose to take, the most interesting is obviously the one where Miz retains and during the Shakeup winds up on the same show with Bryan again, finally resulting in a match between them

But they already have a perfectly serviceable mid card title on Smackdown and Bryan vs AJ/Nakamura would probably keep fans quiet for awhile
