Go2Sleep Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Has any member of New Day won a match at Mania? Last year they somehow lost to the soon-to-be-disbanded League of Nations, I know Big E and Dolph lost to Hell No one year, and Kofi's jobbed in some MITB matches. Maybe Kofi snuck one in somewhere.

MORELOCK Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 3 and 4-way matches at Mania should be abolished. Enzo/Cass should have gotten the titles from New Day after a build anyway, instead of the stupid "Hey that record is broken so we'll immediately get the titles off you guys now" booking.

ChesterCopperpot Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 They will be taping some of the Rock's new movie about Paige's family after Raw at the Staples Centre tonight. It'll be Thea Trinidad and Tessa Blanchard having a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 Well that picture confirms that Tessa is playing AJ Lee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I think Thea is playing AJ Lee (they're both short), and Tessa is the Wrestling double for the girl who plays Paige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 The Rock even says in the post that Tessa is a stunt double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 Yeah - that's it. For some reason I confused who was who in the picture So I guess in the movie - Paige isn't winning the title in 3 secs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I'm guessing this ends with her winning the divas title for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Funny, since Tessa is the second generation wrestler and not playing Paige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swift Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Wait, WTF? I thought you guys were joking about a Paige movie. Just had a look on IMDB. There's totally a movie about Paige's family. Written and directed by Stephen Merchant. What the hell is going on? And why isn't Paige playing Paige? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrolCB Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Karl Pilkington should play Paige. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last I saw of him (last year), Swaggie was still having high-end matches on Superstars and Main Event against the likes of Owens and Corbin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit 2: What the hell? Heimo Ukonselkä was on WWE TV? I have no memory of this (apparently, this segment was only the app) I really want Vince to sign Ukonselkä but he's kinda got the same issue Dave Mastiff has. He looks like he's a monster when he's in whatever ring he's in, but he's not actually a huge guy. He's billed at 6'3", 230 so he would look less monstrous in with a guy like Corbin or Stroman. While this would be amazing, some clever lawyer might use it to file a lawsuit on behalf of finish viking metal band Turisas. Maybe David Otunga could be defense attorney for WWE in exchange for a World title shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Kofi was apart of a team that consisted of Kofi, Kane, Big Show, and Santino and took on The Corre. I was at that Mania. I need to get to another because it's the only one I've been to and I don't want to say that the only Mania I've been to included Miz in the main event plus included the in ring debuts of Snooki and Michael Cole.

Craig H Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Oh my goodness. In the latest WO Radio, Meltzer revealed that WWE is recycling shots from past shows to use during a broadcast when they're not getting a reaction they want. They specifically talked about this for a Roman Reigns segment. On the one hand, they're using b-roll footage to help their TV broadcasts. On the other hand, and I acknowledge that they likely do this for other wrestlers, it's pathetic to see the lengths they'll go through to show Roman as a babyface. I'm starting to doubt Roman will turn heel at WM. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But more so that Enzo and Cass were going to get the Raw tag team spotlight at Mania. Also I think there's gonna be an in ring segment at Mania with the New Day, O'Neal, Axel and Dallas.

Web Conn Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 13 minutes ago, Sin Carne said: I know they might be a thing of contention here but those quick 90 second Wrestlemania squash matches are cool to me. The energy of the crowd when the face hits there finish and gets the 3 is incredible. I'd be all for a mid show confrontation between The New Day and the lower card guys they've been "feuding" with. Especially if the finish involves one of them hitting O'Neal* with a gallon of ice cream, just to tie everything together. *I said O'Neal cuz he's totally the guy WWE would have get hit in the head with ice cream.

Craig H Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I never noticed before, but then again, I'm either watching Raw on Hulu or I have Raw on my right monitor while I'm playing Dota 2 on my left monitor, so I'm not paying full attention.

All someone has to do is notice that whenever any wrestler comes out, you instantly see several signs for them around the arena that weren't there before. It's not exclusive to Reigns, and they've been doing it for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Is it really any different than when they use to pipe in cheers and boos when they taped Smackdown? They just have the technology now where they can cut in those canned reactions on live broadcasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 99% of live programming has a 7-second delay and has had that for well over a decade. Editing on the fly is the norm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
