I'm curious what the Divas thing will actually be... they can't possibly be planning to have like 13 pinfalls or however many people that is, and it'd be pretty repetitive to make it a battle royal. The main event NEEDS to be triple threat, but yeah, I'd have greatly prefered just a regular tag title match.. no need for 4 teams. I guess they just want to get everyone on the show.

Anyone know if Christian is out of the battle royal?

Probably? Depends on how serious the concussion is.

It's most likely going to be that, just like the godawful Cruiserweight Open in 2004.

Lords of Pain is reporting it's 1 fall.. not sure if that's better or worse.

I honestly had no idea Lords of Pain still existed.

They do... it's good for almost real time live updates... Observer makes you have to be a subscriber for them now. Their 'News' is almost always from other sources, but I don't might letting them do the web searching for me

I present to you the only good thing WWE has done going into this WrestleMania...and it likely won't even be shown on WrestleMania.

They like to waste time so I'd say there is a good chance we'll see it. Not that the video is a waste. It's quite good. They just have a tendency to be lazy on PPVs these days and regurgitate material and now even resort to putting commercials on them.
But as far as the horrible build. Does anyone think Lesnar has any chance of beating Undertaker? Does anyone think HHH has any chance of beating Daniel Bryan? Does anyone think John Cena could be made to look like more of a pussy with the stupid promo admitting to be afraid of Bray Wyatt? Seriously?? Super Cena has faced pretty much everyone and now he's afraid of Bray Wyatt?? I love the Wyatts but it just seemed so desperate.

Well they had to switch gears with Cena after that stupidity in Memphis a couple of weeks ago where he sang "Margaritaville" and cracked jokes at the Wyatts. They needed this angle to be more serious and honestly I'd rather have this than usual "I'm gonna make shitty jokes because that's apparently what a babyface does" John Cena vs. the Wyatts. Also, given the Wyatts' gimmick and how they've been booked since debuting, I'd argue Cena would have reason to be scared of them. He's never seen anything like them before.
As far as Lesnar over Taker? No, I don't think it'll happen. Triple H over Bryan? I kind of want it to happen just to see the reaction, but it probably won't happen.

I agree about Cena. His jokes have become lamer the more PG things become. It used to be: implied homo joke, implied your girlfriends a slut joke, or you have a tiny peepee. That was his schtick for like five years. I know he's their golden child but they really need to do something to refresh him. I know they don't want to turn him heel because he sells merchandise. I really think that wouldn't necessarily be true. If he turned heel or went a little fuck everyone, he'd still sell merch, he'd just sell it to the folks who cheer "Cena sucks"

I think the problem with him going a little fuck everyone is he does that and just goes right back to being regular Cena. His character doesn't evolve at all, it's just the same thing. It'd be nice if the Wyatt feud forced them to change his character a bit since if someone fucked with your head the way the Wyatts have done to him, you wouldn't be the same after that. But it's WWE, have to keep Cena's character simple for the kids because kids totally aren't capable of dealing with change or evolution in characters they like.
It's the same shit that neutered the X-Men cartoon in the 90s.

Not to change subjects but I see no reason why Roman Reigns shouldn't headline Mania next year. I may be biased having picked him from the beginning to be the Shield breakout star but he's grown bigger than the Shield, he's got a good look that the E covets and the fans are into him. I think that if it were possible to book the Royal Rumble on the fly, they might have had him win it after seeing the pop he was getting.

They could have had him win it this year and made him into a megastar. I'd like to see him in the main event next year. The guy's super talented, as you mentioned he has the kind of look WWE likes and he's super over.

I don't know why but I need to get a Shameus "Fella" t-shirt and I'm not even a Shameus fan. I just like the shirt.
