Seems like they changed it as that link and every other link Google gives me says the same thing. Which makes it even worse that they actually advertised all those guys wrestling and then none of them did except for Ambrose.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. I know it's card subject to change and all that bollocks, but replacing Cena/AJ with Ambrose/Corbin couldn't be a bigger fuck you.

 

[Beefy]

Maybe they can draft writers/producers as well?

I'd like if the women's match for Smackdown at Wrestlemania was a ladder match. Not sure if it will be though but the fact they brought up the lack of a stipulation last night made me think it might be something cool.

Wonder who else will be in that match?

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Curious choice of venues, wasn't expecting Aberdeen there. Makes sense to use Sanity and Ally Black in advertising for UK people.

Interesting that Asuka is advertised and Nakamura isn't.

When did NXT turn into 'bearded greased hair' fed?

 

[FlammableD]

He's the Strong BJ dude everyone raves about, yeah?

 

[Nocturnowl]

Mike Adamle. In 2008.

JAMAICAN ME CRAAAZZZZY KOFI
UNOS, DOS, ADIOS
THE TAZZ

Man, Mike was the best for all the wrong reasons, i'll never forget this one conversation on the webs at the time where it was about "Mike Admale calls classic WWE moments" and someone came up with "holy moley, there goes foley!" for the KotR98 Cell spot.

Wonder who else will be in that match?

Asuka, even if she's still NXT women's champ.

 

[Foggy]

Yes yes yes yes

When they started raiding UK indies.

Nope, Raw will keep their bullshit and deal with it

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I haven't watched NXT this year. Who is champ there?

A theme song.

[Kaladin]

How long till we see Braun Strowman vs Killian Dain?

 

[Nocturnowl]

Kelly Kelly will return at mania and get a major pop when she runs the ropes correctly.

 

[Hasney]

According to the sheets, only if she can fit it in her schedule, which is hilarious.

Maryse did mention her during her promo.

IT'S THE FORESHADOWING MAGGLE!

What does she actually do?

Look good type stuffs?

So, according to Stephanie McMahon, Shane used to have a hammer right next to his Nintendo when a kid, so during his rage moments he'd hit the console. He completely destroyed it and didn't get another one. Also, video games lie.

Fuck Mike Graham.

 

[Hasney]

AJ, you say you don't have a match at Wrestlemania? You do now

AJ debuts the new Club

[Kaladin]

Wrestling logic tells us that AJ Styles vs Shane McMahon should be for a shot at AJ to get into the main event of Wrestlemania since the whole feud is over Shane apparently screwing AJ out of a Wrestlemania main event slot.

At least, that is Wrestling Logic 101.

Feast or Fired for AJ. He should be used to those matches.

What did he say/do?

Sekimoto getting out of japan is a good thing. Dude is so over looked.

Just calling people midgets, shitting on Mexican wrestlers etc. The usual carny shit.

Oh you mean like people in this thread often do?

If people are serious about it then sure?

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

I'm 98% sure this will happen next week from Ambrose.

 

[Kaladin]

I sometimes wonder about those vanilla midget comments you see often.

 

[klonere]

i call my favs vanilla midgets because i am deeply insecure about my taste in wrestlers

 

[jmdajr]

I heard the snow....

buried people

bryan got fired once for attacking a non wrestler and now he just fired a man for attacking a non wrestler

Shane should have been wearing a tie for AJ to pull it for the complete circle.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

How did Shane manage to climb the ranks to worst McMahon?

Best Coast > LEast Coast

It coming out that he's on "Team Dunn" and taking a spot from someone else to give a match with AJ which was originally Brock before he said "fuck that shit".

Fuck Mike Graham.

It's okay, he can't hurt you anymore, he's dead.

I still like the idea of Triple H getting demoted and moved to Smackdown under Daniel Bryan. I don't think they have time to tell that story though.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Kelly Kelly will return at mania and get a major pop when she runs the ropes correctly.

Then she'll win and the fireworks will blast

Watching this Power Rangers marathon on Twitch got me thinking, WWE should really do a WrestleMania Marathon with Twitch to hype up Mania.

 

[klonere]

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

Smackdown is losing Cena again after WrestleMania and maybe AJ as well?

Yikes.

 

[Jamie OD]

Watching this Power Rangers marathon on Twitch got me thinking, WWE should really do a WrestleMania Marathon with Twitch to hype up Mania.

I'm pretty sure they aired Wrestlemanias back to back on the Network live feed before.

 

[Aiii]

I'm pretty sure they aired Wrestlemanias back to back on the Network live feed before.

They did, but that's preaching to the choir, this PR marathon is to promote the new movie. Doing it on Twitch would be to promote the Network.

A Network marathon wouldn't spawn a 100+ page thread on GAF, for instance.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Watching this Power Rangers marathon on Twitch got me thinking, WWE should really do a WrestleMania Marathon with Twitch to hype up Mania.

I feel like a few years ago there was some semi regular unofficial streams that would do stuff like this including for events like the rumble where all the rumble matches were playing back to back.
Led to the thread discussion being all over the place.

In any case though I completely agree, alas WWE probably wouldn't do this since the network and all.

Spoiler

And showing 32 may have the opposite hype effect, hoh hoh.

 

[Rhaknar]

I hear there was a good match on 205 live?

 

[Tom Nook]

Miz's "shoot" promos made me interested in the tag match.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

They gave Tommy the push to look good on his debut that's for sure. But the 50-50 booking with the rangers getting their asses kicked before they come back to beat the villain isn't as good.

Still one of the best executed face turns, though.

I wonder if DM watched that too 😂😂

So Wrestlemania is looking like:

*WWE Universal champion Bill Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar.

*WWE champion Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton.

*The Undertaker vs. Roman Reigns.

*WWE United States champion Chris Jericho vs. Kevin Owens.

*WWE Raw Women's champion Bayley vs. Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte.

*Triple H vs. Seth Rollins (expected but not officially announced)

*AJ Styles vs. Shane McMahon.

*John Cena & Nikki Bella vs. Maryse & The Miz.

*WWE Raw Tag Team champions Gallows & Anderson vs. Cesaro & Sheamus vs. Enzo Amore & Big Cass

*WWE Smackdown Women's champion Alexa Bliss vs. Mickie James vs. Becky Lynch vs. Carmella vs. Natalya

*WWE Cruiserweight champion Neville vs. Austin Aries.

*The fourth annual Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal - Apollo Crews, Mojo Rawley, Big Show, Curt Hawkins announced as competing.

12 matches so far with the potential to announce another with people who are left out of the show.....or do you add people like Joe, Zayn and Strowman to the ARMBAR if they're not involved elsewhere?

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Joe will probably get involved with HHH vs Seth Rollins in some way.

 

[Kaladin]

Joe will probably get involved with HHH vs Seth Rollins in some way.

I'm thinking they either turn that into a tag, or Triple H makes a No DQ match and dares Seth to not be there if he knows what is best for business, with the angle being whether Seth will show up or not.
