That's a good card.
Chris Jericho vs. Kevin Owens and Finn's return
is worth it.

Oooh look our resident workrate obsessed guy is dismissing the seriousness of having concussion induced seizures just because he wants to see the workrate obsessed performer wrestle again

Color me surprised!

honestly I can't wait for Bryan's contract to end, just so he can do a shoot interview and expose the WWE's doctors for not clearing him while several others did.

I'll take the word of anybody else before this company's where the priority is to not have bad publicity

Bryan isn't Vegan anymore, is he? Maybe that was the issue, now that he is powered by steak he can take on Brock in a shoot fight.

I normally don't like to complain, but after last year's very disappointing Wrestlemania (i've only been watching since WM30), I'm starting to think, looking at this -

- that Wrestlemania miiiiiight end up being a load of bullshit this year too. That poster is comically lopsided in favour of people who wrestle so little that it's disingenuous to describe them as wrestlers.

Also uh, look at Bray smiling into at the sky like he's in a sunny delight advert.

If we judged the potential quality of a PPV based on the quality of the poster... shit almost all PPVs would be judged to likely suck

"OMG DUDE GOLDBERG IS GOING TO BE AT MANIA WE HAVE TO GO"


"Dude have you seen the new wrestlemania poster? Who is this ko guy on the front? I'm glad we stopped watching this stuff a long time ago. It used to be better. "

No Becky seems weird both for the fact she's like the top woman star on Smackdown and also because she had one of the two only good Wrestlemania matches last year.

Six of the most prevalent people on that poster are part timers. Meanwhile KO and AJ Styles, very recent former champions with long reigns, are super downplayed and even the reigning WWE Champ is downplayed

With the roller coaster in the back, it would be an interesting photo if all the wrestlers were riding on one like those funny splash mountain pictures.

It's going to werid when WWE runs out of old guys.
Click to expand...

Cena/Orton/Brock will be 50 in tens years. So they are never going to run out as long as the company exists.

Yeah Attitude Era/WCW era old dudes, that's a problem. Maybe they can still wheel out Shawn and Austin one last time.

edit: A lot can change...and not change... in 5 years.

Have you enjoyed the build of the several long term stories thus far?
Click to expand...

sure i have! well, i mean, two of them anyway!

i guess looking at that poster i forgot for a minute that i have been enjoying wyatt/orton and jericho/KO - although i'm less curious to see the latter wrestle, just cos jericho is only fine in the ring these days to me and KO while good has yet to make me sit up and think 'wow that was a good match'.

apart from that there are a lot of wrestlers who will be on the card i like to watch but i don't think much of the storylines going on for them. but two good stories isn't bad for one show.

last year, WM just really bummed me out. i was pretty excited for it and it just turned out to be horseshit all night long pretty much. so i suppose my expectations are fairly low and that's a better way to go in, most likely.
