I really think Fandango could get over huge as a babyface. Of course, he would have to be booked the right way for a little while, and there is literally no chance of that happening. Here's hoping his reaction stays strong on Smackdown and once they're back in the States.

At the same time, that's sort of Cole's character right now. Given what he's been up to lately, I thought he was a weird choice for commentary. They should have gone with Caprice Coleman if they weren't going to use King Corino.

I don't think some of y'all know what "burial" means.

Snickers is making Roman look really strong.
-
I'm convinced this is going to be a really fun show. It won't be nearly as iconic as last year, but I'm thinking it will stack up favorably against the last few Manias.
-
How did y'all feel about the Jimmy/Jay title match? I didn't like it. The story was fun, but the in-ring let it down a little for me. But that might be Jimmy Jacobs in a nutshell.
-
The sun won't be setting until 7:30 locally. That means only the last half hour of the show is going to have a chance to be in the dark.

She is a very poor man's Melissa McCarthy from Australia.
This is backwards and wrong. Melissa McCarthy is a talented actress that allows herself to shill poor physical comedy and poop jokes for the big pay days. Think of her like modern Big Show.
Rebel Wilson is multifaceted and legitimately funny with a razor sharp wit and incredible timing but, because of McCarthy's over-saturation and unwillingness to develop, is often and incorrectly pigeonholed. Think of Bam Bam Bigelow or John Tenta.
Both fit a particular mold, and while one is more over with the casual audience and gets to "define" that mold, the other is better at it in most ways and has a much deeper skill set.

If they were telling the story about Brock leaving with the belt (a story they've already told, and much better, with Punk), shouldn't someone, literally anyone besides Paul and Brock mention it?
Raziel403, I buy they are telling that story, but they are doing it so damn poorly. I think you've GOT to take that into consideration.

I feel like in their attempt to keep Cena, Orton, and Bryan cool so Roman can look good, they've really made this Wrestlemania feel a little watered down. They didn't bring Orton back in right. Bryan is in the ladder match. Cena is with Rusev. The only problem is that Reigns isn't gaining enough momentum fast enough to really feel like the main event will work they way they want it to.
The Sting moment really saved Raw for me and managed to make both of those matches seem like huge deals (despite the weird Orton reintroduction to the card), and it's not a coincidence that these matches have been built the longest (4 months-ish for Orton/Rollins and since Survivor Series for Sting/HHH). I think Mania will over-deliver in-ring, but they've really got to start doing a better job of building these cards.
Is it unreasonable to want months-long feuds blown off at the biggest show of the year? Like, in more than 2 intertwined programs both involving the boss and his wife?

What about Sami?
-
Because I'm voting for what's right for me, but I understand how that might not be the objectively correct response. Not that this is about "getting it right" but I really do like Cavernario and want him to have more exposure.
-
This is hard. But I watched a ton more Harper this year and he was never anything below very good. I hate that I'm voting on exposure, but both guys deserve to go on.
-
I voted Rollins, but only because I'm just now warming up to Cavernario. Rollins has been really consistent and I enjoy everything he does. The Rumble triple threat might be one of the best ever. And it's funny because I couldn't care less about Tyler Black back in ROH, but he has turned into one of the few bright spots of Raw each week for me.
Cavernario is awesome, however, and, realistically, probably deserves YOUR vote.
-
Sting looking very health goth these days.

You should watch this, HumanChessgame.

Max Landis is insane and this video is no different. But he obviously loves at least the idea of wrestling, which is very cool. Try to count all the cameos in this thing.

If I'm watching an AJ Styles match, I usually enjoy it, but I rarely seek them out. I feel like you know exactly what you're getting from Styles at this point in his career and you either a fan or you're not. He's super athletic and fun, but that's about it. He's one of the few wrestlers to adopt a brooding, intense gimmick without getting any more brooding or intense in the ring. He just started doing the calf killer.
A wrestling caveman is far more pro wrestling than AJ Styles. It also helps that Cavernario is awesome. Vote for him.

Okada feels like the Randy Orton of the NJPW main event scene to me.

I love him, but I'm not sure Suzuki had anything better than the triple threat with Rollins and Brock this year. Vote Cena.
-
I went to a TNA houseshow in Birmingham, AL two years ago and a Rockstar Spud/Robbie E match was easily the best thing on the card. He might be one of the best underdog faces in the word right now.

The angle with Riley is great.
But.
Alex Riley's kickpads have laces.
