Ratings wise she didn't, but walk up business to go to the two shows were way above normal. Probably as much blame lies on the third hour as anything. If after a year or so, Rousey ends up being both pretty good in the ring and continues to draw, then main eventing Mania with her in a singles match would make sense. In that case, it should be Sasha but would probably be Charlotte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the theme song of the show I'd rather blow my brains out than have a Flo Rida song stuck in my head. I've had the Everly Brothers "Bye Bye Love" stuck in my head all day after hearing it on Beatles radio this morning. I also heard "Gimme Back My Bullets" this morning, which of course, made me think of the Briscoes during ROH's glory days. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thee Reverend Axl Future Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Reason #239 why I could never book: I would put Lesnar v. Reigns FIRST just to blow everyone's mind, and to get it out of the way, and to create anticipation for the rest of the card. THIS is how big this WrestleMania is: the opener is Roman/Brock, a legit main event! It would give Reigns a reason to turn bitter heel afterwards, and give Heyman & Lesnar a shooty reason for their eventual return, either as heels against the fans ("your complaining took away my main event money") or as faces against management ("you tried to embarrass us on my way out but we are back"). - RAF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clintthecrippler Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 One note I am shocked is getting lost in the shuffle of the WWE/FOX speculation is that if WWE RAW does end up getting on the main Network prime time schedule, we would be getting a return to two hours for RAW since the FOX primetime schedule only runs 8-10 except for Sunday's. That right there I am sure would be reason for a lot of folks to root for such a move. Though I am sure that maybe an extra hour of programming would end up on FX during the week (maybe NXT or the long rumored women's show) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffSnackwell Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Even with all this acrimony towards Brock on his way out, you just know they'll be eating out of the palm of his ass again if he was somehow able to beat Jon Jones. Actually if he beats any opponent high profile enough (to be pitted against him) that will be the case. If Brock/Reigns is placed in the middle or in the next-to-last hour of the card (because they can't get it over with fast enough) is it crazy to think they would just go all in and have Reigns win even quicker than Goldberg did at Survivor Series? I'd say no for a few obvious reasons. The first is that even if the live crowd is going to piss all over such a lame duck match the longer it goes, it would still look too disparate to have a guy eat a flash pin off one finisher at WrestleMania, of all events, where guy's life meter bars are multiplied times infinity. The other reason is Reigns' life meter needs to be put over by eating a bucket of F5's to puff up his victory montage on Raw the next night.

FluffSnackwell Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 If Cena really wants to lure 'Taker out of retirement, he needs to film a vignette where he decorates the graves of Mean Mark and Kane's burnt up parents with his shitty rainbow brite hats and t-shirts and then pours a 40 out in their remembrance. Or just present some doctored photos of himself and Michelle McCool. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I asked her why she said she can't stand these meatheads. So naturally I pressed her for some sort of ranking/idea about who she likes and who she doesnt. Here is the list (in order of preference), as composed by a 30yo female who watches Diva+Bellas but will read a book or browse her phone while I track through RAW & SDL - Great - "I love their personality/character/charisma" Miz & Maryse New Day Alexa Bliss Nia Jax Asuka Nakamura Demon Balor Bella Twins (+ Bryan) Rusev and Lana Naomi Breezango Charlotte The Usos John Cena Matt Hardy Neutral - "They seem fine, I just don't get/care for their character" Becky Lynch Bayley AJ Styles Dean Ambrose Baron Corbin Finn Balor - Made a point of this. Says the Demon was awesome. "Pedo-Smile Flasher" Finn is not. Aiden English Kane Seth Rollins Sami Zayn Chris Jericho Randy Orton Roman Reigns Dolph Ziggler Bobby Roode Titus Worldwide (w Dana) Seriously The Worst - Please skip these guys The Ascension Shane McMahon Bray Wyatt Harper and Rowan Elias Brock and Heyman Kevin Owens Braun Strowman When I pressed about Braun (who I love) she said that it felt like he was being made to look so much better than everyone else just because he was a big guy. That they should do this with Demon Balor or Rusev. Interested in people's thoughts on how a pretty casual watcher sees things. They should make the 150 lb. vaguely supernatural (in a non-threatening way) really good looking guy more dominant than the big Bluto guy that is an actual monster? I guess that falls perfectly in line with how somebody who watches this shit more like a comic book would see things. I guess that would make Braun the big stupid Zod henchman guy from Superman II and Demon Balor Superman. It would also make regular Balor wussy ass depowered Clark Kent that got his clock cleaned in the diner. I don't even want to think about relating the creep part though because that would mean depowered Clark Kent went into the phone booth to get undressed for other very wrong reasons. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will have her forfeit the title and move to Smackdown so she can keep being UNDEFEATED!!! Because apparently feigning an injury to forfeit a belt does not count as losing. 17 hours ago, L_W_P said: When I pressed about Braun (who I love) she said that it felt like he was being made to look so much better than everyone else just because he was a big guy.

She is not so much a casual viewer as a captive audience; If you were not watching it, she would not be. Which is not a good barometer for who is over or can draw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Lord Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 At least with Vince, the guy was willing to take a beating. Stephanie never gets what's coming to her. The closest she came was the Brie feud and even then they had to come up with something to protect her so she went over. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Sunny's been arrested again. Six counts of contempt/resistance/disobedience type charges. Based on court records and previous verdicts the court could choose to impose, she could face up to five years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
