Some are still great, others I'm just bored. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Rockers vs Orient Express at Rumble '91 is an all-time classic. I think when it happened it had a very good case for being the best PPV match in WWF history. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Considering the main event features Ronda Rousey, Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair, this should be the best WrestleMania main event since WrestleMania XXXI. I'd be surprised if it's worse than the last three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Oh wait.. hold on here a second, @Raziel is probably right. Ronda is winning. It's a "Moment" for SportsCenter true but it is also right in line with current WWE booking where they will postpone Ronda vs. Becky until nobody cares anymore and then finally Becky will win and nobody will care. Or she'll go the Braun Stroman way of postponing until it's not worth pulling the trigger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 3 serious questions. Do people still watch SportsCenter? Do they still repeat SportsCenter for like 8 hours straight? Do the people who watch SportsCenter even care that WWE is covered? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or she'll go the Braun Stroman way of postponing until it's not worth pulling the trigger. So Vince can convince Ronda that having kids isn't a good idea and keep here on the road full time? Or give her the Brock run where she only appears once every 8 months and make Sasha & Bayley carry the entire RAW women's division Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they do have it on 8 hours straight but some of it is ESPN2. As for do people care, I don't know but this announcement of the women main eventing WrestleMania is on the front page of ESPN.com. @hammerva I bet Vince probably wouldn't mind Ronda being part time.

hammerva Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Oh if he thought Brock was a great idea than Rousey working once every 8 months must be heaven for him. The problem is that they are more than enough men to make up for that. If they did do that, the draft would have to move all the women without tag partners to Smackdown and move all of the others to RAW. And since Becky and/or Charlotte is probably going to RAW I don't see that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I have mixed emotions about it all. I remember thinking about it main eventing a couple months ago and I got chills. Just the idea that women would main event WWE's biggest show is a really, really fucking huge deal and I'm ecstatic for Becky and Charlotte. They've been busting their asses from day one and if you factor in Becky's pre-WWE history then she's had one helluva ride. And I don't like how Charlotte got inserted into this but fuck it she's really great and I can sense how much this means to her. And then there's Ronda but who cares. But like the posts above the build to everything just bums me out. As happy as I am about them main eventing they took a sure-fire story and did some unnecessary stuff that hurt the build much more than helped it. I also wish that they didn't announce it before and we just found out in that moment. It would have been neat to see all other matches go before it and the realization sets in. But so much for that as they'd rather trumpet how great WWE is by letting this on last. Then there's Kofi/Bryan which had so much organic interest before Vince go involved. I'll be happy to see Kofi win but I honestly checked out a couple weeks ago. Fucking Vince. I'll only accept this is if means he's being written off and hopefully for good. The others matches I'm sure will be fine but holy fuck is this going to be a long-ass show to sit through. At this point I may as well just spend that night doing literally anything else and cherry pick the good stuff the next day/later that night. I hate the idea of doing that as I've seen it live since 2002 but that's how it is anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Maybe I'm just cynical, but unless I missed it, that WWE.com article says nothing about it closing the show. They've been calling it and Seth/Brock both the main event for weeks, they tend to call at least two and up to four matches main event each year, and Vince usually doesn't make up his mind until at least the week of the show, if not day of I mean, I expect it go on last, but I did before this as well. But I think this left them plenty of wiggle room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
