Ace Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 And Batista has now hijacked the press conference to hilarious results. Including heckling himself about skinny jeans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSJ Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Of course he's not. I just think the entire build up is so ridic given that the outcome is already known. Considering that the usual formula uses reverse psychology where the weaker one prior to the PPV is typically the victor there, I guess they're using reverse reverse psychology here, in that Brock is Taker's bitch both before and after the match. And since double negatives equal a positive, the end result is simply that Brock looks like a pussy before he's soundly defeated. Solid storytelling~~ Agreed. They did let Brock get his shots in last night, but far too little, too late. He should have been screwing with Taker and getting away with it for the last month to give him some cred.

Niners Fan in CT Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I thought HHH/Bryan could end in a draw and now I'm almost sure of it. I think Bryan leaves with the title at the end of the night but HHH will be kept strong to setup their rematch at the next PPV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 WWE almost always gives the guy who lost the belt the next ppv title shot. Automatic rematch clause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can blow that off the next night on RAW and nobody would notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucky Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 But this pre show, being exclusive to the Network, needs a big match to try and lure last minute network signups. Wait so this pre-show isn't going on YouTube for free? I thought that was the thing. Free to stream on Youtube and FB and Yahoo and whatnot to try to grab a few more last minute buys. If this is going to be a Network exclusive, it really does kind of defeat the purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Fixit Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 The first hour of the preshow is on Youtube etc. The second hour will be on the Network and will have the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offspring515 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 It makes perfect semse though. They arent using the preshow match to sell ppv anymore. They are using little stuff like the preshow match to lure subscribers. The Network is where the money is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dank Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 They are using little stuff like the preshow match to lure subscribers. The Network is where the money is now. I already assume that Mania has a 100% chance of technical issues on the Network. I can't even imagine trying to subscribe at 6:30 Sunday evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people are and will wait until then for idiotic reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 So have there been replays confirmed during the week? I plan on watching, but I will probably fall asleep or miss parts of the show. I wonder if they will replay the show immediately that week, or will we have to wait?

BillThompson Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I believe, that starting with Mania there's no wait anymore. The show immediately goes into the vault and can be accessed at any time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 So have there been replays confirmed during the week? I plan on watching, but I will probably fall asleep or miss parts of the show. I wonder if they will replay the show immediately that week, or will we have to wait? My question is if the live show starts playing, can it be paused for an extended period of time. I would prefer to not wait until the next day, but my daughter doesn't typically go to bed until 8 or 8:30, so the show is being paused for about an hour to an hour and a half. I wonder if that's possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Whenever you start the live feed, it gives you the option to start at the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that's possible. On the XBox when you start a show that is all ready in progress it gives you the option of starting from the beginning or starting from that point in time. I'm not sure if you can fast forward though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Wrestlemania Tonight is a bizarre mess of a show. Josh Matthews seems to be nearing the end of his patience between JBL burying everybody ever and Road Dogg having a fit on a miscue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 There's a part of me that wants Bryan to lose at Mania, because I wanna see what dvd or blu-ray Fat Michael tears up next in his impotent rage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 against my inner smark, I've made a bet with my best friend that if Batista wins this Sunday, he's buying all of the food at the Bonnaroo Festival in June. If D-Bry wins, I'm buying. I'm really torn between those two choices when it comes to the eventual winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antacular Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I can totally see Dave pinning Randall after HHH strolls down the asle and takes out DB to avenge his loss from 20 minutes before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 The logical conclusion to the story (SummerSlam to now) would be Bryan winning, but, man, they've booked Batista like a huge pussy and he's been in the background for pretty much all of the build-up. Either Bryan wins and has a short reign before losing to Batista in the summer, or it's the reverse. I'm going with the former, despite the bet I made with my friend. As much as I hate it, Batista's gotta have the belt(s) before his movie opens in August. There's a good few months in-between there where Bryan can reign supreme for a little while. Seemed like they were kind of alluding to a HHH/Batista short feud/matches for a minute or two, as well. Interesting main event scene, tons of ways they can go, but they risk pissing off their most vocal crowd(s) of the year (WrestleMania, RAW after 'Mania) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
