Taker's character should play into the fact he is getting older. Rip off elements of Gran Torino and Breaking Bad, put that into the Taker character... could be cool

He could ride a hover-round to the ring.

They might need to bring back the elevated ramp from WCW.

I dunno, it looks quite nice and simple so far, like the 27/28 set. Fun video stuff you could do with it.

The 27 set was anything but simple, that was a really fancy one. I didn't like the really basic 28 set; given the WWE only use the RAW set for everything now, bar Wrestlemania, it's the only chance all year to see a cool new set.

27 was almost the exact same as this, 1 big screen with Wrestlemania logo on top (if you discount the wierd metal scaffolding)

I definitely wouldn't consider that the same as what 31 is looking like. Different shape, the scaffolding is a lot more striking, and the reflective floor doe impressive things with the lighting.
31 is looking like 28's so far:

After WM 30's giant stage, it would be a let down. But we have yet to see the finished stage, so I'll reserve judgement.

That's true, it's much closer to 28's looking at it now. But yeah, see how it ends up. It is only Thursday.

It's really a bummer that they only do special stages for Mania.

Imagine being hyped for what the PPV was going to look like every month. It would be cool.

If Taker loses to Bray I legit hope they end it with Bray inheriting Undertaker's powers and taking on part of the gimmick.

My fiance and I bought tickets today for Wrestlemania. She has been watching wrestling with me since Survivor Series 2014. It will be her first Wrestlemania and my second Wrestlemania (I was at 21).

We are both super excited to be going. I'm just a little worried about how the cover over the ring is going to be. I hope our tickets aren't in the line sight of the beams holding it up.

Is there a specific reason for not having a Miz vs Mizdow match at Mania? they've been building the feud up for like 3-4 months, it seems pretty obvious to have them go at it here, and not further down the line where it would feel streched out.

Also, I'm pretty baffled why they decided to end the Goldust/Stardust feud, it seemed to be going places and it ended just like that.

Rumor is that there will be a big spot between Miz and Mizdow in the Andre Battle Royal. Probably Mizdow throwing Miz out and winning it. It would justify them not having a match. If nothing ends up happening...well they fucked up then.

Reportedly WWE gave up on the Goldust/Stardust feud after that god awful match they had at Fastlane. Their feeling was that it wasn't connecting with the audience. Really sad that they squashed it after such a horribly cobbled together match. Kind of feels like they were set up to fail.

My guess is he's picking Brie up at the airport.

It was just Bryan picking up his wife from the airport during the time he was injured. They are basically wrestling environmentalists.

Good thing you don't know about the total divas pull out episode.

I think not a single person in the Fastlane crowd giving half a fuck what the Dust brothers were up to in the ring had something to do with it. It was so quiet I found it tough to watch - I figure the weird ending to that match was due to backstage just saying wrap it up.

Those were not in the Plans™. They just made those up to have storylines for the random PPV between RR and WM.
