Don't let Vince see this.

I know for some reason there is alot of ire up in here for Finn Balor, but I still think he is fantastic.

I've said it before but this guy is going to be the #1 merch seller.

The Bayley thing, like most WWE ideas. Great on paper, terrible in execution.

I love Bayley, but I think they force the whole "I have wanted to do this my whole life, I grew up watching this and wanting to do this"
It makes for a feel good win overcoming odds, but after that move on.
I think her "golly gee" thing holds her back a little and she needs a little more personality.

 

[Beefy]

Don't let Vince see this.

Who's it meant to be? Moana?

 

[Cagey]

Who's it meant to be? Moana?

Alicia Fox obv.

Also, expect to see the new us and ic belts soon.

Both will be nasty.

You don't get any personality on RAW. You get one to two starting traits and that's it, you stick with those forever. Sasha Banks "makes history" and "likes Eddie Guerrero". Bayley "liked wrestling as a kid" and "____".
Hey I did say one to two.

 

[31GhostsIV]

One of the best shows they've ever put on disappointed you?

That was the blandest Takeover i've seen, it all seems to have gone off the boil a bit. I enjoyed the Tag and Asuka is always great though.

 

[Beefy]

Alicia Fox obv.

Looks nothing like her. Looks like Moana grew up and became a wrestler.

Yeah I erased that from memory.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Both will be nasty.

The US title will look like the other titles except the strap will be white and the background colors red and blue.

 

[Tall4Life]

Tonight, Roman will join the league of people that have beaten the Undertaker at Wrestlemania, joining Brock Lesnar and Shane McMahon. AND YOU CAN BELEE DAT UCE

 

[Syder]

Both will be nasty.

IC title should get the upgrade Dean was talking about but the design shouldn't change.

I've always thought the US title design was a joke. It looks like a tacky commemorative plate.

 

[Pikma]

NXT couldn't have been disappointed because they were literally coming from some of the shittiest, most boring, builds ever

I mean, unless you enjoy rematches, or the promos Ember Moon cuts 🤷🏻

Shane lost

Shane lost

Lol no he didn't

Yeah I erased that from memory.

It isn't that bad 😂

It's a bigger problem when it's also their default "face woman" character. Sasha does the same shit

The only story they're allowed to tell is one that pats the company on the back for being so forward thinking. They're all just happy to be here!

Throw em all in one match, let em hug it out!

 

[Tall4Life]

Shane lost

Shane had ownership of Monday Night Raw after Mania, which was part of the stip for the match, that if he won he would own Raw. Since he owned Raw, he must have won his match against Taker. Papa bless shane o mac

 

[31GhostsIV]

(Kassius) Oh no. I hope not.

I was surprised that they didn't take the opportunity to completely redesign those awful coin-shaped tag belts when they 'branded' them though.

The Undertaker vs. Roman Reigns

Only one Superstar can run the yard in WWE, and at The Ultimate Thrill Ride, WrestleMania 33, the world will find out whether that distinction belongs to The Undertaker or Roman Reigns.

The showdown between The Phenom and The Big Dog, now confirmed for tomorrow, brings into conflict the most dominant force in WrestleMania history and arguably the most powerful competitor in recent memory.

The Undertaker has been WWE’s unofficial gatekeeper, enforcer and overseer for more than a quarter-century, regardless of his championship status at any given time. However, after Reigns ousted The Deadman from January’s Royal Rumble Match and then told the imposing legend that WWE is now his yard on the March 6 edition of Raw, it became clear that The Undertaker took issue with Reigns’ emboldened outlook. The evidence came in the form of a ring-shaking chokeslam that nearly put The Big Dog through the canvas.

Reigns has achieved a stunning number of accolades in WWE at a breakneck pace, but defeating The Undertaker at The Show of Shows would launch him into WrestleMania infamy and solidify his status as “The Guy.” Over the course of his 24 WrestleMania appearances, The Deadman has lost only once, against Brock Lesnar in 2014, and as the WWE Universe knows all too well, The Undertaker takes on an almost supernatural power when competing at The Showcase of the Immortals.

Can Reigns usurp WWE’s Phenom at WrestleMania, or will The Undertaker prove he is still the biggest dog in the yard? Find out when The Ultimate Thrill Ride, WrestleMania 33, streams live on WWE Network tonight, at a special start time of 7 ET/4 PT.

The big yard

Takeover was fun. AOP are a very underrated base, they've had great matches with TM61, DIY and Revival.

Belts are OK

Crowd was shitty all round, especially during the Tommy match.

Poor Veda had to do commentary after getting her teeth smashed yesterday?

She wrestled yesterday at SHIMMER too

Yeah how they have the US flag over it looks shit.

Ember just needs to not talk.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE LOCKBOX!?

He'd probably repackage Tamina for this.

 

[half a moon]

4 hours untill the ultimate thrill ride!!!

 

[Bluekaveli]

Sooooo according to my main man Dan, there's a chance that AJ and Punk will be back this year.

 

[Heroman]

What lockbox?

 

[SallyIsNow]

4 hours untill the ultimate thrill ride!!!

 

[Hex]

Ember just needs to not talk.

She tries to me this spooky character, then busts out model poses and smiles.
She has no idea what she is trying to do or wants to do.
Supposedly the gimmick is supposed to be because she is a big RPG and fantasy fan but again it seems she is not decided.

 

[Cagey]

Looks nothing like her. Looks like Moana grew up and became a wrestler.

This new era of WrassleGAF isn't very fun and playful.

 

[Roland_Gunner]

I know some people like AoP but they do nothing for me. Can't think of one of their matches that wouldn't have been better with another team in that spot.

 

[Syder]

What lockbox?

Shane was taunting Vince with some secret lockbox when he came back but it, and all the stakes in the Taker match, were swept under the rug after Mania.

 

[Hex]

What lockbox?

With the dirt

 

[FlammableD]

Catching the start of PROGRESS that I missed, Zacky 3 Belts!

Was the Supershow not good then?

 

[31GhostsIV]

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE LOCKBOX!?

Vince walked out on Raw with an envelope, put it in his pocket and that was that.

 

[imBask]

put the lockbox on hold, i'm still waiting for the weird Marcus Louis stalker angle payoff on NXT

 

[FlammableD]

I know some people like AoP but they do nothing for me. Can't think of one of their matches that wouldn't have been better with another team in that spot.

They're very good for the faces to play off, because 90% of the crowd still thinks they suck, so will boo them.

 

[Bluekaveli]

The lockbox contained a key to the safe full of icopro.

 

[31GhostsIV]

Sooooo according to my main man Dan, there's a chance that AJ and Punk will be back this year.

Punk would look like a dick if he came back.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Punk would look like a dick if he came back.

I mean he does that just by waking up in the morning...

Love the guy but he's a dick.

 

[half a moon]

Are you not excite? Please be excited.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Punk would look like a dick if he came back.

He said if they offer him a nice deal, he'd definitely be back. So in other words, it'll be full circle, Punk headlines Mania 34 against Brock and wins the title.

 

[31GhostsIV]

I mean he does that just by waking up in the morning...

Love the guy but he's a dick.

Imagine him strolling back into Titan Towers for an interview with Corey Graves, interspersed with footage from his first meetings back with Vince and Hunter.

 

[half a moon]

He said if they offer him a nice deal, he'd definitely be back. So in other words, it'll be full circle, Punk headlines Mania 34 against Brock and wins the title.

When where did he say this?

 

[Beefy]

Punk would look like a dick if he came back.

He'll be back after getting his face messed up again in UFC.

I'm up to about a 3.

One thing you can say about Vince is he rarely holds a grudge...
