    This is a good main event.

    The predictable outcome...

    In the middle of the triple threat the Wyatt's take out Brock Lesner, leaving a match between Roman and Dean that Roman inevitably wins.

    Hope they don't go with this, since it goes against the "Anyone but you Roman" mentality the Wyatts have taken.

    I think though we may get a Dean turn but it won't be at fastlane. It'll be at Mania and probably because of the Fastlane match...

    Or hey, maybe they'll surprise us. Maybe Dean will be the one winning at fastlane and maybe Roman will be the one that turns. I feel one of them will, or at least should.

    I'm good with the main event but the way they got there is pretty stupid.


    Start of show
    Hey Roman look at us we got the belt off of you! We're the best you don't have respect you don't deserve the title!

    End of show
    Ok here you go we'll put you right back into a #1 contender's match the next ppv without you asking or you even doing something to trick us into it.

    I'd say beating Sheamus & Rusev and then destroying Rusev was asking, tricking, earning, etc a spot. But I guess you gotta be a c unt about everything

    I actually agree with you. It didn't make sense. All of this talk about impressing the Authority all night, and then they picked Lesnar... who did nothing.

    I'm ultimately ok with it though. It will be a really good match, mostly because of Ambrose. It seems like every match he is apart of is a great one these days.

    So much for the resolving the HHH/Reigns match at Mania. It's for sure now the Marquee Main Event for WM32 in Dallas,Texas? Cowboy Stadium? The Rock being in Roman's corner is supposed to make it any better? YAWN...

    What the hell does Brock do now? Fighting Bray Wyatt at Mania is a waste of time after the tremendous damage that has been done to Bray's character. Bray's character is "I look spooky, I have spooky minions, I say weird **** but in the end best believe I'm gonna LOSE LOSE LOSE" I swear the only convincing and establishing win he's ever gotten was beating Daniel Bryan 2 years ago.

    The WWE doesn't have a lot of cards to play I know with Cena, Orton, Cesaro Rollins injured and them refusing to clear Daniel Bryan but this is just sad.

    Bring back Batista to fight Brock. Have Undertaker face Braun Stroman. And move Samoa Joe and Finn to the main roster pronto do the undercard besides the HHH/Roman snoozefest has some juice.

    I dont think Rock is going to be in Romans corner... I think he will be ringside for Uso's Vs New Day.

    I dont really know what yall were thinking was going to happen I mean Roman Vs Triple H is clearly the way to go. It's the only feud that has been brewing long enough.

    Top face (healthy) vs Top Heel (healthy) not sure what's wrong with that

    Triple H can still go and Reigns has shown from Fastlane last year w/ Bryan to WM w/Lesnar, Rollins fued, Bray Wyatt HIAC, etc that he delivers as a main eventer

    He reminds me of Dr. Pangloss.

    Or maybe in wrestling terms, he's this thread's Bo Dallas.

    I agree with this. We're gonna screw you out of the title match, but we will put you back in it so you can get the title back.

    I would have said something like, Roman you look, but not good enough. Then next week on raw you give him something to do to put him in the match. It gives you tv story for next week.

    When Kevin Owens walked out to the rumble all limp and ****, was that lame or what? Is it me or WWE is all gimmick? Whatever happened to the in ring stuff? New Day is so annoying, I don't find them funny. Lucha Underground season 2 can't come soon enough. Who here watches non WWE stuff? I've checked out the past 5 Raw shows on WWE network and they're basically doing the same matches with the same tired story lines. How soon can the bullet club sign up or some new guys from NXT??? This **** is getting tired quick.

    Ill reiterate this.

    This has nothing to do with the talent. WWE has all the talent in the world; the best wrestlers already work for WWE.

    This is all on the creative and writers. None of the feuds have any significance. And nothing really matters. There is legitimately no consequence to anything.

    He was in a last man standing match and went through two tables. He was selling the fact. And I'm glad he did too. Especially if he lasted a long time in the rumble like Ambrose. I'm glad he sells unlike Super Cena.


    I didn't really pop too much for the Rock. He had the same basic lines. It went something like lalalalalapoontangjabronibitchpoontangsmackdownbitchlalalalajabronilalalalapoontanglalalalastrudel. There. That's his promo every time he comes back to promote his new movie.

    He doesn't move the needle for me anymore.

    Man I've said it for a while now.

    Monday Night Raw and Smackdown are filler for the PPVs, the story only ever advances on PPVs. That's the problem I've always had with it.

    Now that we know the main event you will get a bunch of tag matches and promos basically reminding you about the PPV.

    Back when they had competition they had to give you a reason to watch. You have no reason to watch between PPVs, anything barely happens.

    It's amazing how much better NXT is from show to show when compared to WWE.

    FWIW the WWE has never been about wrestling. The in ring activity was always about advancing stories, not putting out a great performance. If anything, the focus on in ring work is far and away the best it's ever been.

    But the writing, and story lines are so painfully terrible right now it is overshadowing everything. The booking never makes sense, and worst of all they are going with this 50/50 booking that makes everybody except Superman Reigns look mediocre.
