I don't really care about this show. Or this Show.  Pre-show: Kalisto (c) vs. Alberto Del Rio Two-out-of-three falls match for the WWE United States Championship Dean Ambrose vs. Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar (with Paul Heyman) Triple threat match to determine the #1 contender for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship Charlotte (c) (with Ric Flair) vs. Brie Bella Singles match for the WWE Divas Championship Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks vs. Team B.A.D. (Naomi and Tamina) Tag team match Kevin Owens (c) vs. Dolph Ziggler Singles match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship Ryback, Big Show and Kane vs. The Wyatt Family (Luke Harper, Erick Rowan and Braun Strowman) (with Bray Wyatt) Six-man tag team match A.J. Styles vs. Chris Jericho Singles match Plus Edge and Christian and The New Day will have a segment that will be the highlight of the show. |

Reigns
AJ (Jericho heel turn to follow)
Charlotte
Sasha/Becky
Wyatt's
Owens
Kalisto
IC title should be good, AJ & Jericho as well, the US title hopefully gets time even if it's on the dumb preshow & if Reigns wins, hopefully the fans boo the result mercilessly.
I'll watch, but Walking Dead & UFC are also on, so not sure how much I'll be commenting.

I am all for booing Reigns out of the building, city, county and state......if he wins.

I think it will be a good show. It may be, but I need something to happen. Particularly in the main event. |

It hinges on the main event. There are 2 solid matches....a god awful 3 on 3 and some divas filler. Something happening in the main event better not involve HHH. It has to involve Reigns and Ambrose.

Well the conventional thinking is that the Wyatts screw Brock and Ambrose takes the pin from Reigns.
That has to lead to something between Reigns and Ambrose though.

You know who is could be healthy and has not been mentioned in forever....RKO. Maybe he can come back and screw Reigns, ambrose wins and then you have Reigns RKO at Mania which is fine by me.

He's definitely missing Mania.
They're talking May for his return.

I thought he said he wasn't as bad as they were reporting him to be.....oh well. I need to find any scenario that involves Reigns not winning tonight or winning the belt at Mania!!

I think Brock vs Bray would suck. Especially if Brock kills all of the Wyatts to get to him. I don't believe for a second that bray could beat Brock and if Bray won because of family interference then that would suck too.
I think the E is really missing out if they don't continue this Lesnar/Ambrose thing.

I could deal with Reigns going in for the 3 count on Ambrose and then Brock absolutely laying Reigns the fuck out and just sitting there smiling and beaten while Ambrose gets the win. Now you can have a Brock Reigns match....let Reigns win at Mania as the face and then heel turn against Ambrose on the following RAW.

Flair said his shoulder isn't going to be healed in time. He just kind of said it, so it's not a work. Unless they're working Flair. |

I think the E is really missing out if they don't continue this Lesnar/Ambrose thing. Brock v Bray has potential for great psychology in the match. Even though he's been minimized a bit by the creative decisions, Bray is a fucking tank. If he literally collides with Lesnar, it's not a given Bray goes down. He's a hoss. Interject all of his mind games. It's a totally believable match. I could construct a match that ends with the entire Wyatt Family getting involved, but not actually being involved in Bray winning at the end. |

Notice how they've kept Reigns relatively quiet since losing the title. He's had a promo here & there, but Ambrose has been the one getting more interaction with Lesnar. Plus, whenever Reigns talks, he gets booed (unless it's SD, then they'll edit the shit out of it)
They've spent 2 years building Reigns & it hasn't worked, but they are hell bent on him being THE GUY, so, like I've said before, Mania to them has no other ending other than Reigns holding the title in the air.
They really dropped the ball in a sense that this will be his THIRD title reign since November. If this was his 1st time winning, maybe fans could get behind, but 3rd, nothing special about that.

Ambrose winning would be legit shock factor. Everyone expects Reigns.
They could use this as an opportunity to build toward a Reigns heel turn night after Mania, then have Ambrose/Reigns for the title until Rollins gets back. Then you are set up perfectly for The Shield 3 way. With Reigns as heel and Ambrose face, then a returning Rollins will get cheered.
Instead, they just want to force Reigns down the fans throats. It sucks. It's not Reigns' fault either, it's creative & Vince.

They're following the Rock's path. He won his first 3 WWF titles in 6 months. Though he was an outstanding heel rather than a mediocre babyface. |

Exactly & also he had Mankind to work with & not The League of Nations. Also the Attitude Era writers, not the lazy fucks they use now.
Kalisto vs Del Rio is up right now on the pre-show if anyone is interested. Should be a good match. Byron, JBL & Mauro are doing commentary. JBL has already called him Mario. Ugh. Hope we don't get Cole on commentary tonight, but I assume he'll be out there to replace Mauro for the main show, which sucks.

Mauro just made a Drake & Meek Mill reference when talking about Del Rio & Kalisto.
Don't turn into that guy Mauro. Please.
Del Rio gets DQ'd for the 1st fall. |

Why the fuck would they put this on the pre-show? They couldn't spare 15 minutes?
Del Rio with a double stomp for the 2nd fall. Also hit a sick double stomp off the barricade.
Kalisto with a roll up to retain. Very good opener.

He better not even be in it! He should be defending his title.
Divas tag to start. When was the last time a Divas match kicked off PPV?

I'm obviously not a Mysterio guy but if they could pull off getting him there and passing the torch to Kalisto at WM32 it would really be quite the thing.

Nothing special about the opener. Becky bumped her ass off, took some hard falls on the floor. Sasha was super over with the crowd.
Hopefully they do a triple threat at Mania, Becky deserves it.
