Television Tho Prop Grops Throps

I honestly dont think it will add more tickets to the event (people will go for the spectacle of Mania more than one individual). I could however see it adding numbers to the network subscriptions, especially if announced on the final Raw (honestly thats all it needs, Taker coming out, Cena doing a shock return and challenging him to a match at WM).

Though I wouldnt be surprised if it went on last given the reaction that Reigns beating HHH would get.
 
Would they really do Cena v Undertaker with virtually no build at all? That's a main event that would sell tickets, not just a cool surprise match.
Easy. Screw it, no reason just Cena challenges Taker and Taker accepts.

One thing I noticed from watching old Raws, Angle vs Benoit wasn't set, or even really looked into until the Raw before Mania. It's happened before.
 
God bless that man (if he is actually human) if he saves us from Taker vs Strowman
I will buy a Cena shirt if he prevents that from happening.

It's a shame Lesnar already has the win, Cena could have built the hell out of "the ultimate challenge" Taker at WM..... Even with only a week or two, I'd have no doubt he'd have gotten insane hype.

For discussions sake, he could say this latest injury has shown him that his body won't wait forever so he wants to achieve a few things while he can, one of which is facing Undertaker at Mania. Easy enough.

Safe to say they need to stack the card if they want to not get outshone by NXT that weekend cause that card looks tasty.

Oh yeah, he'll get some kind of decent build out of it regardless.
 
About 98% certain Hogan vs Rock build started on the go home show.

That cant be true. Im sure Rock / Hogan had their segment night after No Way Out, then Hogan smashed into Rocks ambulance, and then Rock returned just before WM.
 
Cena is a machine, don't expect him to Wrestle till Wrestlemania but he can start building a feud.

Feb 2nd he's squatting with just a bar, Feb 14th he's squatting 140kg. He's got a month and a half left....

The ambulance bit was the go home, after Rock had challenged Hogan about an hour before.

Thinking on it there may have been a short bit the week before with Hogan refusing an autograph or something, but absolutely not before that.

They got lucky the fans turned that rock v hogan into such a special night

They botched the NWO pretty bad from their 1st appearance at no way out

Also did a rush job feud between stone cold and Scott hall, which resulted in a terrible match

Had to check, Feb 18 2002 was the Raw that all happened.
WM18 was 17 March.

There was certainly no way the ambulance was go home of WM.
 
Fatal 5 way for Intercontinental title to kick things off. Can't complain.

Ambrose v Owens v Stardust v Breeze v Ziggler
 
Hopefully Ambrose loses the title tonight, wins at Fastlane then main events WM by beating HHH for the title.

MAKE IT HAPPEN! (well the last two things at least)
 
Although Owens winning means we're guaranteed Owens v Ambrose, Wyatt v Lesnar and HHH v Reigns at WM.
 
Now let it all play out and WM can be so much fun.

Owens defending the title at WM against AJ or Zayn
Ambrose winning the title of HHH
If Cena can return to face Taker.
And feck it, give us Neville vs Kalisto for the US title (throw in AJ if hes not in the IC title match).

That triple threat!!!! :drool:

Add in a bunch of New Day and you have a WM to die for.
 
Are they setting up New Day vs E&C? Or even an interruption come Sunday for Dudleyz vs E&C one last time. Sure a match could be laid out where Edge wouldn't have to take a significant bump.

I reckon it is shaping up as follows -

Cena vs Taker
Lesnar vs Wyatt
Ambrose vs Triple H vs Reigns
Big Show, Kane and Ryback vs The Wyatts (3v3)
New Day vs E&C
Usos vs Dudleyz
Charlotte vs Becky vs Sasha
Owens vs ???
Kalisto vs Sin Cara
 
Ambrose drops the IC belt to Owens. That's very interesting. I still think he'll be in a triple threat for world title at Mania. They have focused on him far more than Reigns over past few weeks.

I think Edge is at the point where he'd paralyze himself falling off the toilet
 
I 100% don't understand what is going on with the Wyatts.

If only for the fear that Super Cena would take the streak while he does not deserve it right?

Raw was pretty good, I think they are doing well in creating a brother vs brother narrative, especially without Lesar to suplex the shit out of people. Dean losing the title like this actually gives him a bit more credibility in the triple threat, as funny as that sounds. The whole Heyman hype and Dirty Deeds tease was pretty good, also felt a bit like testing the waters to see how the would respond to a possible turn for Dean. However, I hope that if they go with Reigns winning the Triple Threat it means he'll turn heel on Dean. Or he loses to Dean/Brock, turns heel afterwards and vows to destroy the Undertaker or something. That would be fun.

Styles vs Miz 2 was good, that last sequence with the Calf Crusher looked slick. They'll probably go for a Jericho/AJ match at Fastlane, and I suspect they'll move AJ through to KO for the IC title at Mania.

In other news: Kaliso is demoted to the pre-show, Dudleys are now rasist rednecks who hate Samoans, Del Rio's corner stomp is still stupid and Summer Rae can wrestle (and win!).
