He's a company man. He probably doesn't actually care about wins/losses as long as his matches are good.
Obviously this isn't going to happen.
Obviously.
But if it did, can you imagine the crowd reaction? I don't think any pop in the industry would be more explosive than this one.
If—and when—Punk returns, I sincerely hope it's unannounced.

Ikr.
...and then Roman speared him right then and there! (Please make him a proper heel Vince)
Basically on life support like Darth Vader.
Hopefully this is it, but we'll see.
edit: Goldberg must be thrilled he isn't going on last.
I hope so. I just think the man deserves a proper send off.
What if the WWE doesn't want any of this part timers as champ, and Trip/Balor/Joe/Owens beat the crap of Lesnar and Oldberg and after some WM IX shenanigan Balor ends being the new champ.
But seriously i see everyone thinks Lesnar squashes Oldberg but i don't think so. I think he had a completly surreal, fantasy storyline for kids. Some sort of fairy tale, and that's really what they wanted. And you don't kill the hero at the end of a fairy tale. Not brutally at least.
What if Oldberg actually beats Lesnar, again.. Then loses the title in some way the night after. I could see them do that so much.

I think KO vs Jericho is gonna be my favorite, but I'm not gonna lie, a part of me is excited to see Roman beat Taker. Taker has to retire, but letting Roman put him to bed is such a whiff. I can't wait to see how Cole spins Roman walking off, getting showered in boos and miller lite.
On the other hand it would be nice if they followed up on his last promo and just pulled the trigger on him going full heel. I know it'll never happen but let me dream okay, jeez

We will, don't worry. Roman fans always deliver on the gifs.

Seth Rollins body is like breaking down. Dude is always getting injured. He's a hell of a talent who works a somewhat risky style by WWE standards so it's not all surprising.
The Goldberg feud isn't for kids , it for dudes in their 30s.
You kill the "hero" to make way to the actual main character. Believe. That.
This company is smarter than people give them credit for. If they have it close with Taker/Reigns everyone will wait for the end of the match because a good amount of people are expecting a heel turn.
And it won't happen.
Fans will then tune out of the product but what happens after they tune out? Nothing. The show's over. That's smart shit lmao.

I mean this is probably exactly why it's going last, besides giving Roman another unearned main event spotlight.

Taker's retirement match. WM to end in boos once again.
Funny you mention it...
*Did I do it right this year, guys?*
No, his face doesn't look like that since his debut in UFC 203

Why are you doing this to me?
Yep. Sad but true.

Their tv ratings/network subscriber numbers say otherwise.
Don't you know ratings doesn't matter anymore.

Real talk, as much as I don't like old part-timers taking the spotlight from the current talent, I would mark the fuck out for one more HHH/Rock match. That shit was a staple of my childhood.
Considering the have contracts with a TV channel and sponsor, I'd say it does.

That picture...Kurt just looks like an Mass Effect npc.
He has the weirdest eyes in those shots.

I would be marking out with you, this feud was my defining wrasslin' rivalry that got me into this carny product.
Ratings are so last year, what manners now is how many Twitter followers you got.
What really matters is how many subscribers the network have
after offering three free months to every person on earth.

let's not pretend that match wouldn't be a classic and get some major buzz

Can we get wrestling talk that isn't a bunch of Alvarez's wanking over cynical rumors and sarcastic ratings talk?
Like, people here actually like this stuff, right? You guys have fun with friends talking about this in real life, right?

Not going to lie, I love this. Using it forever.

I actually wanted to see it, the segments were pretty onpoint too.
Rock/HHH oddly enough always put out pretty damn solid matches in their prime, so I would have been cool with this
As long as the belt was not involved, I'd be ok with it. Also, I'd cheer for HHH.

Remember when we're watching Dean Ambrose vs Baron Corbin for the Intercontinental Title that none of us saw the people involved in the Triple H vs The Rock feud for the Intercontinental Title would be the undisputed kings of their respective industries when they got old.
Yeah, people are being cynical, but it's either Taker's final long farewell, with us all crying, or Roman heeling it up in ways we've never seen to get that final emotional impact.

I'd be all for Demon Fin retiring the Undertaker or the guy to perma take Brock out. It's just so crazy to me that WWE is gonna have Roman do both. So far he's already broken the Royal Rumble record, been a 3x champion and headlined 3 Wrestlemania's in a row. It's no wonder why WWE can't build any other new stars. Why not let AJ retire Taker than have Fin take out Brock? It's hitting two birds with one stone with building 2 stars.
It's crazy to me how WWE can reward a guy that failed the wellness policy while getting everything handed to him.

It's really good episode. Reigns is a cool dude. I loved some of his stories about growing up with The Usos and their family.
Jericho's podcast is one of my favorites. He seems to understand how to conduct an interview, has a very natural rapport with his guests, and beyond a few moments, avoids making every conversation about himself or an ancedote about his life ala Stone Cold.

Me too.
This is gold.
Are you saying it's not smarter for them to have fans to tune out after all the matches have ended rather than tuning out in the middle of the event?
