Even if it does happen it's a hilarious proposition. Reigns is going to be put in the same spot Bray was 2 years ago. Cutting promos on his own (good fucking luck) until Taker's titantron accepts a match. Then they have a garbage match at Mania. Woop woop...

Reigns is gonna win too... so that'll be fun.

 

[cordy]

Get this guys...

- Jericho/Owens at WM for the US Championship
- Owens wins
- Reigns/Taker at WM
- Reigns wins
- Goldberg/Lesnar for the Universal Championship
- Lesnar wins and takes his part-time hiatus
- Owens/Reigns for no reason other than the fact that it's the lead title full-time on the brand
- Reigns becomes a 2x US Champion
- Reigns is the main champion on the brand
- Reigns loses the US Championship to someone due to shenanigans
- Lesnar/Reigns at Summerslam for the Universal Championship
- Reigns becomes a 4x World Champion

This will surely happen.

 

[imBask]

it is. did you not just see the main event?

nah sorry I blinked

 

[excelsiorlef]

The wrestling tonight was fine... it was just the booking that was wacky at tines.

 

[blackaroni]

Fastlane was p good.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Oh my god, imagine:

• Roman beats the Undertaker
• Goldberg retains the Universal title at WM
• The night afterwards, Goldberg challenges anyone backstage to a title match
• Reigns comes out, squashes Goldberg in 15 seconds, become the new champ

I don't think there will have been a wrestler in history to be booed quite as much as he would be.

heh I guess that's a good way to see things

but then again, I wouldn't watch a TV show where the action is fine, but the acting and storytelling is about as good as a porno b-movie and I wouldn't expect anybody else to do so

so I did not watch it

 

[Pikma]

You guys told me wrestling was good again

NJPW has good wrestling but I guess it doesn't count because reasons

Only thing that would get more boos is if Steph won the mens title by slapping and pinning Brock or Joe.

 

[GunBR]

I just don't understand why Taker didn't show up tonight. Even if it was after the match

He was eliminated by Roman at Rumble, so it makes sense that he tries to attack him now instead of Reigns ask for a match just because "I'm the big dog and this is my yard. Belee that"

I treat wrestling like horror movies... I usually just watch for the gore. Sometimes I also get a good story but it's rare but whatever...

I was entertained for what I paid.

dawg i'm a big horror fan too, and the worst horror movie can tell a better story than Roman Reigns

 

[Syder]

I just don't understand why Taker didn't show up tonight

because he saw how terrible he looked at the Rumble and has been holed up in his room eating ice cream ever since.

 

[excelsiorlef]

dawg i'm a big horror fan too, and the worst horror movie can tell a better story than Roman Reigns

Whatever there's more in WWE than Roman Reigns...

And that Reigns/Strowman match was great even if the finish was meh.

They don't use ppvs to do big shit like that anymore. They do it all in raw now. Debuts, etc

 

[Data West]

Taker didnt show up because hes afraid of Dadberg

and who wouldnt be. whats old busted up digging souls nghhhhh man gonna do to dad?

 

[cordy]

The ppv was so bad decision-wise that I forgot Rusev was humiliated in front of a live crowd tonight. Poor him.

NJPW has good wrestling but I guess it doesn't count because reasons

People won't watch it because reasons

None of said reasons good, obviously. Brief synopsis: Google translate works, there are guides to both sub and unsub, it is cheaper than almost every other wrestling streaming option, the archive's incredible, there are great starting point playlists of matches people have made to ease into the company, and it can all be done for quicker than a Goldberg match and for easier than laughing at a Bluekaveli post

At least that would make Goldberg useful in the long run, even though Reigns REALLY doesn't need it.

I just want Goldberg and Brock to go away at this point.

 

[Man God]

I don't like NJPW's player nor its complete lack of apps.

I don't like NJPW after 2000ish anyways for the most part.

I'm so psyched for the show in 6 hours

So you are a Rhino fan, huh? You are cool in my books.

[Syder]

Vince is creaming at the idea of Spear v Spear

I am actually lol

Got to see Rhyno do a gore at a house show last minth. Good times.

Saw Rhyno live at that dumb "Wild Card Finals" Smackdown in December and he didn't even Gore, smdh

Imagine WWE ever telling a story as intense or exciting as Get Out

Awww

 

[Man God]

Reigns has had good matches with everyone besides Dean and HHH that he's fought since coming up to the main roster. Yes, this includes the likes of Kevin Owens, AJ Styles, and D-Bry but it also includes Bray Wyatt, Big Show, Brock in his suplex city mode.

Along with Raven, Rhino is one of the most underated legends ou there. Dude is great.

Let's give it up for Neville and Gallagher.

Great match.

It's almost like one guy is actually a pretty mediocre worker and the other guy has political reasons to try to make sure Vince's guy isn't over so he can replace him with his NXT guys who will all back him politically.

 

[Brian_FETO]

According to Shane's Twitter, next week's Smackdown is at MSG? When's the last time they actually had a televised event there

Reigns' problem has never been in ring... it's always been his booking. To the point I regularly feel bad for him.

 

[Man God]

Raven has a hilarious character arc between WWF, ECW, and WCW.

Johnny Polo is a rich kid manager.

He becomes disillusioned and goes to ECW where he starts a cult, talks about how bad his parents and people like his rivals treated him, whines, etc.

Brings that character to WCW where we eventually meet his rich ass family and find out he was never abused, just spoiled. He made that shit up! He's been Johnny Polo all along!

Festival of Friendship was better than any movie ever. Though, that happened despite WWE

 

[Bluekaveli]

Damn, I wonder how much money they'll lose?

I wonder how stacked that sd will be too.

 

[Man God]

He's reverse Cena getting the same push. He figured out wrestling first and cannot get over on the mic pretty much no matter what he does.

Cena figured out the mic stuff first and took a decade to become a great wrestler but always had the charisma to keep at least a decent portion of his fanbase no how bad the stories got.

It's the Sunday house show he's talking about.

I meant it as a compliment Blue! You're like Kevin Steen, funny and entertaining.

Except you're the WWE version, a loser.

Ah really? Dumb he'd call it Smackdown Live if it's a WWE Live event

Seems like the 2 guys he didn't have great matches with work a methodical psychological style compared to all the others. They wrestle pretty similar. He just can't work with guys who work that style unless they're the best in their craft ala Orton.
