Easily my favorite WWE PPV of the year.

It should be awesome up until the end when we get spoon fed another helping of Reigns.

The only badly handled program has been the Kalisto-ADR one.
Everything else has been nicely done.

I'm excited too but its jaded. The last two years Vince fucked us over, and here we go again. If you ever thought Vince wasn't messing with us, go back and watch after Bryan was eliminated last year. The next entrant was Goldust, with his video Shattered Dreams draping the arena while Vince probably sat back in his chair with a big ass grin.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, we'll boo the Rock and Roman Reigns. Fool me three times? Are you all ready for Triple to win, and most likely get cheered over Reigns at Mania? Idk guys.
The possibilities are endless. Will it be Bray kneeling down to the Wrestlemania sign as champ? Will Lesnar tear through the roster and once again be the conquerer? Will AJ Styles debut? Does Daniel Bryan finally get his vindication after three years? Will Reigns really last the whole way and win? Does Triple H, the odds on favorite, actually win the belt? Why is Big show even in this? What will Kofi do? Who will the surprises be? (Goldberg).
Either way I'm excited, but after its over and Triple has the title, I'm not sure how I'll feel. The point is we're all mostly excited, so here we go again! Also I work until 9 tonight so I won't be watching live, I'll post my thoughts on here after I'm done watching. Enjoy guys!

Is the bad guy in good enough shape to be a surprise entrant?

I'm expecting Jake to make an appearance.
And I want Haku to show up too.

That Fatal 4 Way fell apart at the end, badly. Swagger & Henry win.
Dudleys hit a 3D on Viktor. Swagger pulls Bubba out & puts the ankle lock on him from the floor. Henry hits the splash on Bubba & goes to pin him. Swagger has to tell him not to. Henry turns around & just pins Viktor for the 3. Pretty bad ending & The Dudleys are in the same realm as Darren Young & Damien Sandow.
Renee looks incredible

Hopefully this shit is good. I reactivated my account for the next 3 months. Probably will cancel after WrestleMania, unless something changes in the next few months.

Pretty bummed that Mauro isn't calling at least a couple matches.
Owens vs Ambrose solid so far. Commentary is abysmal already. Neither of which are no surprise.

This match has to end with the apron powerbomb right?

Post by randomone on Jan 24, 2016 19:22:48 GMT -6
My guess is, where those tables are set, I'm thinking superplex by Ambrose from the ring through the tables.
Also the hecklers at ringside at Owens are brutal. "I like your tattoo, it reminds me of the Rock."
Brutal. Heckle right if you're going to be a dick & do it.

That got a pop.

Must've missed that one. I heard the tattoo one & then "you have a girlfriend at home Kevin"
No he doesn't, he has a wife, who is very attractive. I feel like they're doing awful ones just to get him to react, but they are awful.
Damn, that twisting suplex through the table reminded me of PWG when Steen did that to Cole to a bunch of chairs set up instead of a table.

Yup those tables were the end.
Fantastic opener. These guys built interest into this match incredibly well.

When Vince walked in on Edge and Christian, that look on his face was a shoot.

"Xavier Woods with a great move."
If Michael Cole knew anything, that great move was a friggin Tornado DDT off the barricade.
Way to make it sound like just a regular move, Cole. You dope.

Has anyone explained why Xavier is wearing Iron Sheik boots?

2 for 2. Really liked that tag match. Big E catching Uso in the air from the splash attempt was pretty rad looking.

Kalisto with the win!
So did they just do a title change to see how the fans would react? Realized the reaction was good, so they had him lose the title the next night, just to win it back at the PPV?
So complicated. But happy Kalisto won.

Makes no sense the switching of the belts last week if this was the goal.
Just devalues the US Title even further.
