Has Randy Orton turned into WM Atlanta Miz here where he is the least important person in a world title main event match?

What a mess they’ve made of Orton/Cody, that segment between McAfee and Cody was awful. 
 

“Belly Roll” was hilarious though

I will say, all the McAfee stuff got me to watch Smackdown.

Yikes.  Won't be doing that again.  I did enjoy Iyo/Jade however.  This Mania build has been absolutely garbage outside of Oba/Brock.  I agree with Natural, they absolutely killed my interest in Orton/Cody and that was once a match i was really looking forward to happening.

I love how successful Danhausen has been so far too, AEW really really dropped the ball with him and im glad he's killing it.

Thank you for agreeing with me. I was so looking forward to Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton at WrestleMania 42 but after last week and this, no longer do I give a flying fuck. It's one of the worst booked matches I've seen in 31 years watching wrestling.

I think the build for Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton at WrestleMania 42 has been even worse than Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena at WrestleMania 41. That bad.

It's like they gave up after 40.  I thought 40 was an awesome Mania, but the past two years have been lackluster to say the least.

They like to use Avengers Endgame as a parallel to how Mania 40's main event played out, and i think it's even more accurate when you look at how badly the product dipped afterwards(i love Falcon and WS, Wandavision, etc, but i definitely recognize it took MCU a while to get their footing again after Endgame happened and it seems WWE is having the same issue, so the comparison works on so many levels)

WrestleMania 40 and 39 were terrific. WrestleMania 41 was the worst since 36. It's an apt comparison for WWE post WrestleMania 40 and post Marvel Studios after Avengers: Endgame. My interest in both are not what it was, more so Endgame. I've got so much to catch up nor the will to. It's quantity over quality now post Endgame. Daredevil: Born Again is the best thing since then by farwith Spider-Man: No Way Home, Loki Season 1 and WandaVision. Really liked Deadpool and Wolverine. Hope to see Thunderbolts and Fantastic Four: First Steps.

That was Tama Tonga. Jacob and Solo haven't wrestled each other in nearly a year.

Shit. I knew I was getting that wrong. I don't watch the product (cue framistan), I can't keep track.

Oh yeah, Solo is the one that doesn't wear makeup. See I don't even remember when they started wearing makeup and don't know who's allied with who. 

I also saw both Danhausen segments and yep, he's a winner for them.

I don't want to trigger folks I like who can't help themselves but they turn into fucking insane weirdos when CM Punk is brought up, I'll just get that out of the way. 
That Houston promo was awesome and my favorite part was that when he mentioned Paul Boesch it got a fucking pop. It ruled.

The set up for the Grande Americano Mask vs Mask match at Triplemania yesterday was extremely well done.  Original Grande attacking a comedian and then going after AAA version of Jackie Redmond who is dating Grande with Grande losing his shit in a crazy brawl.  Little bit of blood.

Is it too late to have Taker book Wrestlemania?

That was one of the most realistic-looking pullaparts in recent memory. None of the normal "10 Guys Hold Me Back Then I Magically Break Free And Jump On The Other Pile Of 10 Guys Before The Other Guy Then Takes His Turn And Breaks Free Of 10 Guys And Proceeds To Jump On My Pile" bullshit.
