Even though it would've made absolutely no sense, I would've liked to have seen that six-man tag from this house show in Buffalo(?), this past weekend. I was kind of expecting Balor to make the save for Jericho and Sami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 They somehow convinced me to get excited for Hunter-Rollins. I feel so dirty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Rollins pins Hunter at Mania, then KO and Joe come out and help HHH put the boots to Rollins when Balor (possibly in the Demon gimmick) makes the save?

Night after WM, Heyman and Brock are in the ring, Paul E. going on about Brock conquering Goldberg, lights go out, Balor comes out to challenge for the title he didn't lose.

After Foley assaulted the COO of the company in front of his wife? Stephanie was coming to her hubby's aid like a damn good woman would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I really wish there was a way around multi-women matches at WrestleMania. To their credit, the RAW ladies had a good triple threat match last year and the SDL ladies had a couple fun multi-women matches right after the draft but these don't feel like a big deal.. On both brands it feels like it's just being thrown together. RAW should have just been Charlotte vs. Bayley or Sasha vs. Bayley and Smackdown could have been Alexa vs. Naomi being that it's Orlando (and if she's healthy) and then Becky and Mickie could have did something or they could do like New Japan and just have a big tag match.

DreamBroken Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I figured/hoped Rollins coming back early from injury (or storyline re-injured after that brutal attack tonight) meant there was a logical reason for HHH to go over this time. No way should less than 100% Rollins go over at WM but he probably will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I guess Foley getting fifteen seconds of vengeance is the best we're going to get these days. Really wouldn't have killed them to let Foley put HHH out while looking at Steph, and he gets to leave with his head up high. HHH can come to, be furious, demand Foley come back and Rollins comes out, and we can still get that finish, but nope. Gotta make sure the one person who will never get their comeuppance comes off the strongest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bink_winkleman Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I've been contrarian as hell for the last month or two or Raw. But no. This was fucking garbage. Top to bottom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I missed most of the show cause I fell asleep. I got most of it sitting on the dvr so I can always watch it during the blizzard tomorrow. But that ending was just so WWE. Of course they have to take the little dignity Mick Foley has left. Of course they have to make sure Triple H stands tall after Seth got one in on him. I think these people misunderstood when people started saying we like rooting for the bad guy. There's two kinds of bad guys. The one you can empathize with and root for and the one that's so horrible you just want to see them get what's coming to them in the most horrible way possible. Now which one do you think Stephanie comes off as? Who ever puts down Stephanie will be the biggest star that company will have probably for the next decade.

zev Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I honestly believe that the only person Stephanie is going to have a clean loss to in the ring is whichever of her daughters is first to join the wrestling business.

Eivion Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I mostly fast forwarded through raw save the short segments and short matches. The Foley stuff was way too obvious and didn't interest me. I just don't want to watch Enzo & Cass matches. Same with Jinder Mahal. And of course the two matches I actually wanted to see were both cut short in Sami/Y2J vs. KO/Joe & Bayley vs. Nia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victator Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 And Stephanie managed not to take a bump or get a come uppence. What a shit show of a company. They are so lucky they saved their money from the boom. People actually fly out for this garbage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caley Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Man, was that Kevin Owens spotlight promo dull. Just straight-up boring. Also, crowd was super-hot for Dana Brooke (!) turning on Charlotte. Therefore, you people were wrong, Charlotte > Kevin Owens. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she gets her promo skills from her dad, she can start now and be ready right on time. Man that show sucked. I think the high point was this exchange after Emma's video: Graves: Are we seriously doing this again? Saxton: Oh yeah. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go2Sleep Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 You'd think Dana Brooke of all people getting a big pop after a pretty run-of-the-mill "standing tall" babyface moment would clue them in that maybe that same style of segment could be even more effective with someone of Seth Rollins' status... 4 hours ago, West Newbury Bad Boy said: Oh, good. I wasn't at all tired of people complaining about the prospect of comparatively undersized wrestlers squaring off against Brock. Don't worry, this time, you'll have lots of ammo with Brock selling for a 50-year-old man with worse cardio than 2014 Batista as his most recent program.
