They need to limit Rouseys talking now. Her silent assassin style makes her so much more badass.
Looks like they will go with the Olympians (Angle and Rousey) team.

Did Graves just struggle to count to 4?
I just remembered i have a day off tomorrow and it made me happy
Hopefully it is braunn . Angle can wrestle Rollins . Angle pairing rousey is not needed.
Elias in the middle of the chamber. haha
Who wants to walk with Ellis
Behind bars
Elias looks more like randy savage every week
Elias looks like a scruffier Superman.
Elias is the most improved coming from NXT right?
This guy is gold. No need to have him wrestle at mania. Elias musical performance at mania with Rock interrupting and singing would be gold with. Do it WWE.
BRAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUNN!!!
Cena and Reigns the last two, hopefully then Undertaker’s music hits
So after Raw Rollins lasting over an hour he has to start this thing.
Good choice on the three starting this match.
Miz is ... awesome
Elias eliminated
Braun should have power slammed Finn on Reigns
One man wrecking machine
Bleh. Braun looked strong. But Roman ... ya.
Strong.
Strong.
Feck you Vince
Seriously.
Seriously.
Crowd so quiet after that win for reigns
Enjoyed that show.
See, Roman gets slammed a few times.
Fans go home happy.
Fans go home happy.
A heel turn would clearly improve things and get him over
In fact he coild even turn on Rollins to do it.
Brock v Reigns will get booed out of the building...especially if it goes on last.
Vince is incredibly stubborn.
Vince is incredibly stubborn.
Are Brock and Roman gonna have tug-o-war over the title, again.
So just don't get the purpose of the last match. Was the purpose to get Roman over as the guy or Braunn. Because for me braunn was the guy and roman was a lucky chump. This helps no one especially not roman.
People hated cena but at least cena looked like the guy, roman is neither here nor there. Just give him the title already and get it over with.

At this point I think they just want to piss the fans off with Roman.
The boos equal controversy and controversy equals cash for Vince.
I just don't understand why there is anything at all to do with him that makes him worth all this.
Braun on the other hand is a cartoon and he's amazing entertainment. I suppose the only problem with giving him the belt is who the hell takes it from him?

We all knew it was coming but it doesn’t make it less disappointing, I wasn’t hyped for the first match nevermind this one.
On the other hand they need to get that belt off Broc, it’s killed so many good wrestlers momentum this past year. At least now we could see the likes of Seth and Finn get a shot at the title/main event.

It's really clear that Braun should be the one to face Lesnar at WM. Even if we've already seen it a few times and would probably be dissapointing, people want to see it and really like Braun. It feels like people are even getting tired of booing Roman, or maybe it was just the inevitability of what was going to happen.
Felt pretty meh with the chamber match. Took ages to get going, not many big spots and the ending just leaves you feeling deflated.

I allowed myself to beleive that Roman wasn’t going to win it for a moment. Foolish of me. When Braun was piling up the bodies it started to sink in that Roman was still around. But foolishly I wanted to beleive that they were selling this unstoppable force going in to Mania to take on the beast. At least Braun beat the snot out of him. Wonder where this leaves Braun and the others. Someone will be matched up against the Miz. Probably Balor.
As for the woman’s what was with Banks and the no sell of the twisted Bliss off the fookin pod. I’d understand if she immediately rolled with its momentum, however she didn’t, she paused for a sec like it hit then in to the bank statement. Even if it wasn’t a proper twisted Bliss you sell the idea that someone jumping from that height would hurt. Can’t stand Sasha, she’s a bit of a twat from the sounds of it.
Ronda &Kurt vs HHH & Steph.
Also totally sucks Brock wasn’t on the card, would have been intresting with Cain Velasquez and DC ringside. Must be there for the TUF house. WWE missing a trick.

Agreed on Sasha not selling the Banks Statement, made Alexa look bad.
Wasn't that into the women's chamber but I liked the attitude of Bayley climbing the pods, they need to do something with her character.
As for the men's one I enjoyed it, was kind of expecting Braun to break into Elias' pod to get him out into the match earlier.
Hopefully with Braun attacking Reigns he might get added to the Lesnar match somehow.
Elias is so over at the minute I want to see him get some more main events. Randy Savage was one of my favourites when growing up so to see Elias look like him and even do the elbow drop is good with me, also looks like James Storm too.
Seemed a bit strange to see Kurt Angle shaking Triple H's hand after what went on before, but it worked out well eventually.

You would think after that Sasha kick the friendship angle, especially after the Rumble then Bayley beating her would mean we are going to get a proper feud between those two again. I can see there being a Mania match there. Because if they aren’t in the title picture then really it’s all there is because without Paige Absolution are kind of a non entity. Although I’ve been quite impressed with Sonya Deville. She just moves well and when she hits someone you believe it. She’s just aggressive as well.
Dana White put up a picture of himself with Brock yesterday and supposedly Jon Jones Ban might get overturned due to the tainted sups/Coke. With Brocks contract ending in April i’d Say unless Braun somehow gets added to that match then Roman is guaranteed to walk out champ.
Unless this is just Brock playing both sides for those contract negotiations.

Sasha kicking Bayley still makes no sense. Its not like she tried to pin her straight away. She just kicked her and laughed. And that was it cos Sasha still went after Bliss.
But overall the womens one was better than the mens one.
Mens was way too predictable. Im just glad Reigns and Cena didnt destroy everybody. Speaking of Cena, he seems to be losing too much recently.
And his angle of 'I lost and not in a title match so not going to have a WM match' is pretty bizarre.

WrestleMania looks pretty hard to book all the talent in right now.. If we assume every title is to be defended:
Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Roman Reigns - I'm sure it will stay a Singles Match.
AJ Styles (c) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura - Again, Singles Match. It'll be better than the Lesnar/Reigns match, but go on before it.
Alexa Bliss (c) vs. Asuka? - Staying a Singles Match. Everyone seems to think this is the choice Asuka will make.
Charlotte Flair (c) vs. ? - Not sure who will get the chance if Asuka picks Alexa. I think Asuka should probably pick Charlotte and move to SmackDown, because there's a lack of talent who can realistically challenge Charlotte on that roster. Rousey is RAW, so maybe they should roll with Nia Jax's dominance more and give her the match against Alexa, with Asuka moving over. Rousey will eventually be the RAW Women's Champion. If not, then you're probably looking at Ruby Riott w/ Sarah and Liv to give some kind of believable chance that she could lose. The likes of Naomi, Becky, Natalya are all out of the picture for beating Charlotte for the title now. The only other option is to maybe have like a Six-Pack Challenge for the SmackDown title, as it gives the whole 'even odds' against the Riot Squad kind of feel.
The Miz (c) vs. Seth Rollins - This will no doubt become at least a Triple Threat, probably more. Elias will be a strong favourite to be involved.
Bobby Roode (c) vs. ? - Again, I think this will have to include a minimum of three superstars. Ziggler, Corbin, maybe Rusev or Randy Orton?
The Bar (c) vs. ? - Would have to guess maybe the Revival? If Jeff Hardy recovers from his shoulder injury, maybe they do the 'Woken' Hardy Boyz? I can't see Titus Worldwide or even a potential Balor Club angle happening now.
The Usos (c) vs. ? - Probably the Bludgeon Brothers, but at least SmackDown has a few more realistic options. Rusev Day or the New Day returning are possible. At last one of these Tag-Team Matches probably needs to include more than two teams, as so many straightforward matches just gets a bit samey IMO.
205 Live and any NXT stuff will be on the pre-show.
HHH & Stephanie McMahon vs. Kurt Angle & Ronda Rousey - Obviously happening.
So, that's nine Main Card matches already which, not including Promos / Breaks / Interviews / Hall of Fame etc is going to take up around 2 hours 30 minutes? There's also some pretty big names without a match yet from that list such as: Braun Strowman, John Cena, The Undertaker(?), Finn Balor, Bray Wyatt, Samoa Joe (if fit), Dean Ambrose (if fit), Chris Jericho(?), Jinder Mahal, Kevin Owens, Sammy Zayn etc.
Obviously, some will find storyline matches such as maybe Owens vs Zayn at last, John Cena vs. The Undertaker if it can happen. But at the moment, the Andre the Giant Memorial Match seems like it will have a lot more talent in it than it usually does. Not even mentioned all the female stars who likely can't fit many extra matches in because both titles need to be defended. Bayley vs Sasha is likely, but what about the rest of SmackDown? They probably need a female version of the Andre the Giant Match to give them all something to do.
This is the issue with having a plethora of Mid- to Upper-Level talent, where being in a match for the IC/US Title seems a be demeaning while they don't really have a realistic chance of being in the Main Event yet either. It's difficult to find them things to do. We're going to have 12+ Main Card matches and at least four on a two-hour Pre-Show which likely have to be the Andre Match, the 205 Live Match, a Women's Match and either a Tag Title or US Title match, or some random match.

That was a pretty good promo by Reigns, if he was over with the crowd it would probably have gotten a far bigger reaction.
Cena vs Undertaker is surely going to happen especially with the free agent stuff as weren’t both originally Smackdown. Undertaker is back in training apparently. I’d expect Cena to bow out and take that loss for the Undertaker.

I think they're going for a Finn Balor/Miz and Rollins triple threat match.
