So many jobbers...that shit is pre-show alright.

 

[jmdajr]

Is the Jobber Royale definitely in the main show then? Might be in the pre-show as well.

The pre-show is all the entrances.

 

[Data West]

This Rico & Haas vs Dudleyz match is pretty good

Woah, Curtis 'the future of the business', '5 star', 'legend killer' Axel is gonna be in the rumble? Shit, why is anyone else even trying.

 

[bean breath]

Can someone direct me to the post # marking the beginning of the discussion on whether Daniel Bryan's "You hit like a girl" comments were sexist or not?

I'm in the mood for a good laugh.

 

[Aiii]

Two hour pre show is fine by me, since I will be waiting for the show and chatting with you guys anyways! Why not just have it on as background noise.

 

[Perspicacity]

So according to Joey Styles' twitter, the Wrestlemania pre-show is TWO HOURS.

I just don't know about this.....you think it's for stability purposes?

Hopefully they'll be airing all of the weigh ins that don't appear on Raw/Smackdown the week before.

There's no way in hell that the Network doesn't go down in flames at some point during Mania. Couldn't handle NXT Arrival, hell I even had hiccups on Main Event.

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

How in the fuck will they fill 4 hours then? 2 hours of Preshow sounds insane, what's there to talk about for so long :lol

Get ready for two hours of Renee Young. Subscription: justified.

 

[JesseEwiak]

20-minute show opening HHH & Stephanie promo.
A couple minutes for each guy in the battle royal (believe me, with the people they have in it, there are zero questions it's going to be on the main show + Meltzer confirmed it)
10 minute video packages for each match.
10-minute Undertaker entrance
10-minute Cena entrance

So on and so forth.

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

Del Rio must really hate that there's only one belt these days. Poor fella.

 

[Aiii]

I just realized this might be the best WrestleMania in at least a decade, that's a weird feeling.

 

[Perspicacity]

Interviewing fans in line to the arena
Recap of Hall of Fame
Video package of WWE AXXESS
Extended feud video packages (which will also be on the main show)
Uh... Jobber royale pre-match interviews...
Something

EDIT: Hopefully at least an hour of this:

Not sure what is going on but meanwhile in japan

Um, there are stories out there about what joshi girls do in their off time, especially since the sport has collapsed in the early 00's.

Here is quarter breakdowns for Monday's Raw with the 18-49 male demographic and basically Daniel Bryan is the top act on the show right now:

Top rated Segment:

Q6: Raw hit a show-high 2.18 rating for Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan in a No DQ match, plus one commercial. The peak of the entire show was from 9:23 to 9:30 p.m. EST for the second-half of the match. Included was show-high peak viewership of 1.523 million viewers at 9:25 p.m.

Other high point:

Over-Run: The over-run increased to a 2.12 rating for Triple H's long segment with Daniel Bryan

Everything else was flat of 1.80-2.01 rating. Only these two went above 2.01.

 

[British Monsoon]

Oh... Hmm...

What was Emma's pre WWE name?

Tenille Tayla, or just Tenille.

I'm sure she's done a few, a lot of women wrestlers on the indies do the creepy custom match stuff, as well as Amazon wishlist begging.

 

[Data West]

Joshis do creepy calendar photoshoots, so it's no better over there.

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

6 straight hours of WWE programming sounds too much for a mere mortal.

Thankfully I'm Batman, so I can take it.

There's a loooooot more creepy shit going on with the Joshis. The "Morality Clauses" that some of the companies enforce is beyond fucked up.

What about Batista's numbers? He's as big as The Rock! He's getting paid like The Rock, so he's bringing in Rock ratings, right?!

Where is the "my fuckin money..." Vince gif?

Going to Mania, Axxess, and Hall of Fame.

I'm gonna have dreams about it.

 

[bean breath]

Also really liked the violent ending to the show and Bryan saying Steph hits like a girl. Shocked at the chair shot being allowed, or did he mostly hit the ring post? looked really ood either way.

I wonder if his hipster gimmick will get hurt, seeing him say something so misogynistic like that.

I think you're the one being misogynistic, Sunny. Are you saying hitting like a girl is somehow inferior to how a man hits? Daniel Bryan was just telling her... hey, you hit like a girl, man... and that's cool

Vinny Mac just lit the Stroud Signal.

I see what you're saying, but he said it in a (trigger warning for patriarchy sensitive) demeaning way. Much like how a week or two ago he suggested Triple H wear a skirt (oh what a burn, gee) since he's an (inferred) BITCH.

Shame on him. Triple H is the more progressive of this feud and is doing the right things. A far cry from his Booker T feud, but people can learn and change.

Yeah, a bit disappointed in my boy D-Bry for the misogynistic comment, but you know, in the heat of the situation, sometimes you say stuff you don't really believe in. I bet we will see him feeling about it on Total Divas season 3.

I think I'm beginning to understand what gimmick posting is all about.

If you're going to be disappointed in anything, be disappointed in Daniel Bryan's piss poor improvisational skills and mic work.

 

[Serpentine]

This is some of the creepiest wrestling shit I've ever read... and you wouldn't believe how much hardcore Shield fanfiction I've read.

Also - Paige in this for those of you who I know will buy it

god damn has every single woman indie wrestler done this kind of thing

i didn't look or anything

This Rico & Haas vs Dudleyz match is pretty good

Woah, Curtis 'the future of the business', '5 star', 'legend killer' Axel is gonna be in the rumble? Shit, why is anyone else even trying.

this is gonna be the beginning of his singles push i think. Ryback has held him back for too long

I just realized this might be the best WrestleMania in at least a decade, that's a weird feeling.

Aren't these low numbers for Raw overall? Isn't it near the 3.0 range usually? What else was on TV Monday?...is it March Madness yet or something?

 

[Aiii]

Because it's the first time in ages there will actually be a interesting main event.

And a genuine WrestleMania moment. Like an actual, everyone agrees this is awesome, WM moment.

And the last one is tainted...

They have Batista! 2 years at Rock-level money! The buys are gonna come!

Its just the ratings for the 18-49 males. It doesn't include women or men under 18 and over 49 years.

The rating was weak compared to last week probably because of St. Patricks day.

 

[Ithil]

The WM 30 Pre-Show is going to be two hours long. Good god.

I still have no idea who the guy on the left is. Is he Mr. America's alter-ego?

 

[Perspicacity]

Stephanie McMahon isn't a girl. She's a hardworking mother of three young daughters as well as an executive in a multi-national billion dollar company. Though she was born with more opportunities then most young people she has worked hard to earn her place at the table in what is traditional a men's industry.

Saying she hits like a girl is demeaning. Because we all know she hits like a woman.

 

[Data West]

Stephanie's more intimidating than some hipster vanilla midget

I'm watching this, watching the 1 hour post show and BAH GAWD I will probably watch Mania again during the next day while preparing for Raw.

BECAUSE THAT IS HOW I ROLL ITHIL.

They hope it breaks during the pre-show rather than the show itself. Hope.

The two hour preshow will have one 5 minute dark match in it.

True enough, just another reason why he should go back to this look;

Let's be real, capes add credibility.

Oh God, no.

Two hours? What the hell are they going to do for two hours? Jobber Rumble sure but what else? I'm not going to watch it, that's for sure!

Spoiler

I'll be playing XCOM or grinding in Persona 4 with the pre-show in the background.

I just realized that we may get

Spoiler

Shield vs. Kane/NAO

at WM.

Oh God, no.

Probably would be Vince's/HHH's idea of putting over the Shield even more, and considering how much casual viewers (who probably still think

Spoiler

Kane and/or NAO

are cool) watch WM it is not the worst thing.... I guess.
