WrestleMania 32 |OT| OHHH! Written in the Stars! A Million Miles Awaaaaaay........

People liked Seth Rollins before they turned him heel. Also Seth is set to return as a face when he comes back as injury. He could feud with a heel Reigns.
For myself at least, HHH's current run as champ has been WAY more entertaining than what they were trying to do with Roman before he lost the belt at the Rumble. Also HHH has been pretty great in the ring any time he's had a match over the past couple of years. His beatdowns on Roman have gotten the crowd pretty hype almost every time. Because things are so lackluster in WWE, HHH is comfort. Someone I know that will deliver no matter what. He knows how to get the audience into it. Roman absolutely does not.

But this way you're going to get concerts and all sorts of recap segments and panel discussions and in-ring promos that never end and drag out for 20 minutes (Stephanie McMahon, I'm looking at you) and Network plugs and the nostalgia acts getting trotted out for a cheap pop like Austin and Michaels and The Rock and Sting and Foley and Daniel Bryan and whomever the hell else.
Vince will take like 4 different finishers and then be AOK for RAW After WrestleMania the next night.
Is he now? Just like Orton was set to return as a face when he came back from injury to feud with Rollins? Remember that? Oh wait... (I suppose they got there eventually after "telling the story" again.)

Then I'm supremely excited to see what rich and detailed promos come out for these earth shattering feuds, like Kalisto and Ryback, or The New Day and League of Nations. I imagine even the Shane / Undertaker match is just going to be his leap from last night on repeat while Vince does a voice over "So when the Rock said he couldn't do it..."
Lol well Kalisto and Ryback got moved down the card to the preshow on USA.
Hell, they made an insanely good video package for Nikki Bella vs Charlotte last year. I'm confident in their ability to make hype video packages, even for the shittiest feuds. I just wish they could do that in the months leading up to it. The past couple of years they wait until the day of Mania to make their stories actually appealing. It's weird.
My guess: Roman wins in the match before the main event, turns heel on the Raw afterwards.

One way that kept me excited about going to WM this year was not watching raw during the build up.
I mean...there is a chance it will be good if you don't even pay attention.
Maybe I'll be surprised.

I think Seth will return to a fucking massive face-like pop. He'll come out like his old heel stuff, and then immediately turn face on whomever is the other heel out there with him. It's a pretty simple set up. But yeah, WWE, they swing and miss on the simple shit all the time.
Very likely outcome.

BK was a very smark crowd with the reigns booing, will be interesting to hear the reactions Sunday

If they're smart, they'll have him turn heel on Ambrose (fresh off of an unlikely victory over Lesnar at Mania in a garbage match) and build that feud up for a couple months until Seth returns as a tweener and they make it a 3-way.
Of course, we all know they're not smart. Face Reigns vs. Heel Ryback it is.

Im being serious, she has improved so much this last year, something clicked.
The only thing that clicked is the good NXT booking.

I'll be there! My trip starts tomorrow. Driving from LA to Dallas. So excited to be going to my third Wrestlemania (21, 31, 32).
Only bummer is parking is $60 at the stadium.

Are they even close to 100k in ticket sales? Last I heard they were at 88k
My guess is that they're going to go ham with comp tickets this week.
It's called WRESTLEmania, not SPORTSENTERTAINMENTmania or REIGNSamania

Yeah. Those are for the stadium spots. I'm sure I can find cheaper parking but I don't know the area at all.
Last year at 31 I had to pay $40 and it was a half mile walk away from Levis Stadium.
This taunt has absolutely nothing to do with her character and makes no sense in the context of what happened just before she did this oh god why is Eva so terrible!
I found a website called ParkWhiz that has listings for parking for Dallas Stadium and WM32 is one of their events.
These are privately owned spaces but they have price ranges from $11 - $194.

She owns the character, and understands it now. And yes the air guitar was spontaneous, and such a cool display of arrogance that costs her when she got hit from behind a few seconds later.
She is bordering on master Psychology, and I have a feeling HHH is working more with her than we all know, because she is doing things no other woman is.

so Cena's gonna run in on the title match, right? do we actually know he's not ready for that?
Run in to do what, exactly?
Raise Roman's arm

Lol. I actually hope this happens.
It's on USA before the show. It got knocked off the main card.
Didn't even think about that. Way to take advantage of all the work Cena did for the belt. Jesus fuck.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Like three of these matches are PRESHOW. Meltzer says all of the matches are supposed to get time.
