JRGoldman Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I thought about this last night when Ryback came out and still got the entire crowd to chant "feed me more" despite doing nothing for the better part of a year: If they decided tomorrow to switch Roman and Ryback on the card, would Wrestlemania be a better or worse show, and would it get a better or worse reaction?

Ramsey Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 The sad part is, Roman and Hunter will probably have a pretty good match. It won't matter. Vince screwed this push and I think it's made him even more stubborn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick B. Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I don't doubt that the matches will be really good. The most frustrating thing is that there's so much talent on this roster and so little direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like Ryback all that much, but he's solidly over. Crowd was chanting his catch phrase last night even though he's done nothing of note for a year and turned heel recently (lol, that's going well). Roman's better in-ring, but it's not a huge difference maker. I think the title match comes off better if you turn Ryback back face and throw him in there. And, yeah, Trips' promo was great. I kinda hate to see him go back to being management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the moment, it would work. It's what comes after that becomes a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you need to turn Ryback face to have a match against HHH, the most well booked and protected face in the company, who never backs down from a fight and is merely protecting the sanctity of a business that he loves more than anything? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 He gets all the character/promo work way better than Reigns but if talent is dropping like flies now, imagine what it'd be like if the top guys were working 15 minute matches on the reg with the big guy.

Patrick B. Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 The show peaked VERY early with the Shane elbowdrop spot; that probably didn't help the segments that went on late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And considering how injury conscious the WWE claims to be - they aren't putting the woman who just got her neck brace off at the beginning of the week in the ring Or maybe you were expecting Rosa a month after giving birth. But yup - they put Eva Marie in just to specifically infuriate you And seriously...this is a divas vs not divas match. Booing Eva Marie is the only way anybody is going to give one fuck about this match. Without her in the match, that ladies and gentlemen, is the sound of a bathroom break.

I don't watch all of them either, but I haven't heard him say that in a while. Maybe that's why people are booing him now, they can't get their "Believe Dat" on.

Go2Sleep Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Have to say I'm enjoying Shane/Taker way more than I thought I would when it started. It's amazing what good heat can do. They're gonna need to do an extra good makeup job on Taker to cover that shiner he's gonna have this Sunday. I think it's looking more like Becky's gonna win this Sunday. The only question about Roman/HHH is where it ranks against HHH/Jericho and HHH/Orton for his worst WM program. I'm glad to see Emma back on Raw, but am I the only one who sees a clown face in her top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyJ Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 You can't just ignore that Roman is getting booed almost night in/night out for over a year now. You have to acknowledge it and somehow use it. Ignoring it get you nowhere because your lead face looks like an idiot and the heel/face dynamic is thrown off.

Nice Guy Eddie Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 WWE right now is like Jason Voorhees in Jason Goes to Hell, where Jason as we know him doesn't appear for most of the movie. WWE is the coroner that was hypnotized by, then ate Jason's still beating heart. WWE ate WCW's heart, so what we're seeing is actually WCW using WWE as its host body. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some wax or mortuary putty, opaque cosmetic, then re-create the lines of the eyelid, and Taker would be good to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
