    Holy ****. Dallas is trying to copy our wrestle mania? Remember Shane is Vince and the family in Houston? I already know how this is going to go. Undertaker beats Shane's ass up until Vince and family steps in. Deja Vu Houston?

    Hang on.

    I'm only reading the online reports and not watching. Can someone please explain the logic of Shane vs Taker for CONTROL OF WWE?

    Who is Taker fighting for?? Vince? Is Taker the heel by default?

    Who is the heel here? I assumed not Shane?

    Dude I love the social outcasts. They're Lolz af.

    But I hate their theme so damn much. I thought Jeff Hardy was about to come out. Was ready to mark hard.

    Someone watching, please respond. I am going mad trying to think what the psycology being portrayed is.

    Shane bailed out Vince years ago and now wants the company.

    Yeah but who is the heel?

    Is Vince saying Taker is on his side? Meaning if Taker wins Vince keeps control...and assuming so - how is this logical with Taker in Texas going to be an obvious babyface?

    Either way, it's safe to say this will be fun, and also points to the fact that the UT is not going to finish up at Mania this year

    Why would Undertaker fight for a heel VKM ?

    maybe that's the swerve.

    Let's be honest. Shane vs undertaker on paper sounds like utter dog ****. I mean undertaker is an og, he deserves better talent than that,right? Come on guys. I hope you guys got tix for nxt takeover.

    The psychology is that it is pretty well known that Vince and Taker have a pretty close relationship so it makes sense for him to fight for the company and Vince like he has done for the past 20 years.

    Wth Shane is an og! Shane has had tons of great matches. Taker and Shane is better than Taker vs Strowman or whatever else they were planning.

    HHH beat the holy hell out of Reigns and got massive cheers, this is going to be a long 6 weeks for Roman with RAW taking place in Chicago,Philly,Pittsburgh,and Brooklyn. He is going to get booed out of the building.

    Just trying to think how it plays out live at Mania. Probably a swerve involved (almost certain of it) but in the lead up and during the match, the crowd are going to be cheering for Taker, while he is heeling for Vince.

    Add that to the main event as 2 matches at Mania that the crowd is going to be behind the heel. *****'s gonna get awkward at AT and T.

    Shane McMahon is the most fearless guy I've ever seen for insane spots, he's also had a few years of MMA training

    I'm not so sure the crowd will be as behind taker as you think... I mean the streak is no longer in play, he was doing shady stuff against Brock (low blows, etc...) and the fact that if he losses we get to see Shane more often should be enough to give Shane a ton of support. Plus I'm sure over the next 6 weeks we will get more on the Taker and Vince relationship and perhaps see Taker play a pure heel.

    I am hoping the storyline leads to a brand split with Shane taking over either raw or smackdown and steph/HHH getting the other. Than have them compete in the ratings With control over the company at stake. If done right this storyline could lead to a year long feud between Steph and Shane which I have been hoping for since Shane left.

    It's the Undertaker. It's Mania. It's Texas.

    He's going to be massively cheered.
