Not gonna happen any time soon. Vince has decreed Roman is Cena's replacement as the King of Make A Wish. There's no way in hell the turn him unless crowds start leaving the building when his matches start or something.

remember when roman got a dying kid boo'd the gently caress out of the building

I thought there were stories awhile back that WWE had lost faith in roman being the new guy for the future. Does anyone those or am I making stuff up?

there was supposedly a rumor that WM33 was his last chance to get over and then it turns out they're already booking yet another coronation at 34

Im glad there is a big Ladder Match at Mania but now but I am a little worried about it since Cass has already taken Sheamus to like 0.4 Mercury in a promo segment. He is not very good.

Fans should chant "LOVE AND HIP HOP" because it's the better show and what they should be at home watching instead.

Also I find it funny how at first when they moved Enzo and Cass to the main roster, people were fretting about them splitting the pair because they loved Cass' size and Enzo was going to be pushed aside into the abyss. Now people realize they both suck and everything is okay.

If I recall right Vince got SUPER high on AJ and was considering giving him Roman's mega push, which turned out to be pretty close to true honestly.

I didn't hear the "last chance" thing, I think it was Meltzer saying something to the effect of if Roman manages to gently caress up two main events of two Manias he couldn't imagine Vince keeping op for him.

That's right. I get those mixed up. I don't remember anything about Rey vs Matt Hardy.

I just watched 19 the other day and Rey/Matt was pretty fun despite going only 5 minutes. It's like they found out in gorilla that their match got cut in half and were like "OK let's get ALL OUR poo poo IN."

Enzo, the bad wrestler who loves chicken in inappropriate ways.
Cass, the bad wrestler who hides one nipple only.

Together, they steal screentime from the good wrestlers.

Yeah I think I saw on Twitter that he was doing all of his Wrestlemania week appearances, which I have to imagine will be good/healthy for him.

What people close to JR will tell you is he never really "clocked out" of WWE. Still works like he's still on "WWE time" and gives the same level of effort to stuff as he did as a high ranking WWE office employee. Along with being around old friends I do believe it is the right place for him.

Has WWE put out an official statement regarding the death of Jan Ross? I don't think I've seen them express their condolences anywhere as an official company statement. poo poo even TNA has enough of their poo poo together to put out something on their official twitter feed.

LOTS of former wrestlers and valets are being brought in. WWE 2K18 are scanning them. 2008 is the anniversary of the Divas title is the theory.

That's some false logic in the sense that what should be gauged is the quality of the Raw matches if they are bearable between the Smackdown matches that are almost a given going to be leaps and bounds better than the Raw matches.
