tbarrie Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Bit late to the party, but can anybody explain how the Charlotte-Becky match makes any narrative sense? I'm not in the "Becky's Wrestlemania win absolutely must be one-on-one" camp, but if Becky has already beaten Charlotte to get to the match, what's the point of Charlotte being in the match? Shouldn't Becky have to beat Nia Jax or someone in order to get her shot back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 (edited) 16 hours ago, West Newbury Bad Boy said: The WWECW title got you consistently good main events between guys who wouldn't get the time on the A or B shows. The WWECW title was great. It was like the NXT belt before NXT. What the heck closes this show? Between Bryan-Owens, the Shield reunion, and Charlotte-Becky round 793, you've got a few options. I just hope they put the Revival on first and we get them in a hot opening match instead of filler later in the night. Shield match as the main event. Roman Reigns first match back after kicking leukaemia's ass and may be the last time the three team up. Send the people home happy.

DangerMark Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Yeah but between Raw and PPVs, there's something like 37 hours of TV to fill between the Rumble and Mania. Throw in Smackdown and Pre-shows, and it's up to two solid days. I don't know that it's possible to space out a sensible build to a singles match with that much time for stupid shit to happen screen time to fill.

The Natural Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) I fancy the Kickoff Show to host the overall Match of the Night as Rey Mysterio battles Andrade. Edited March 10, 2019 by The Natural Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's been working dark matches and house shows. Becky hasn't worked a match period since the Rumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Rematch of the US title match added to the main show. Rey-Andrade blowoff at a later date. For a filler show, this looks like a sneaky good card on paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raziel Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 That was a fucking solid show of wrestling, especially the Main. Even if the booking of the show had a bit of Attitude. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) Bryan vs. Owens vs. Ali had the hard task of getting the crowd back on their side with the crowd wanting Kofi. Reminded me of the crowd sitting on the 2014 Royal Rumble match when Bryan wasn't the 30th entrant and the 2015 Royal Rumble when he was eliminated early.

Niners Fan in CT Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 give Ali, Bryan and Owens a TON of credit. They were in an impossible spot tonight and were nearly hijacked. They turned that crowd around and put on a great fucking match. Ali is a special babyface... I hope he continues this run. That Shield match was way better than I was expecting. It's amazing what can happen and how the crowd reacts when they book babyfaces like fuckin killers. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
