Wrestling mania.

[Lee909]

I want Rhodes to win it and then get screwed in a rematch on Raw tomorrow and lose it again. 

 

Or win it and Priest cashes in just fir the fume

 

 

WrestleMania 40 match card, schedule for Night 1

Matches not in order.

 

The Rock and Roman Reigns vs. Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins to determine stipulations on Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match.

 

Women's World Championship match: Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Becky Lynch.

 

WWE Intercontinental Championship match: Gunther (c) vs. Sami Zayn.

 

Jey Uso vs. Jimmy Uso.

 

Six-pack ladder match for Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship: Finn Bálor and Damian Priest (c) vs. Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa vs. The Miz and R-Truth vs. Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods vs. Austin Theory and Grayson Waller vs. Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate.

 

Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill and Naomi vs. Damage CTRL (Dakota Kai, Asuka, and Kairi Sane).

 

Rey Mysterio and Andrade vs. Santos Escobar and Dominik Mysterio.

 

 

I hope Gunther keeps the belt but they don't seem to be doing much with him lately. Think he loses though

[Lee909]

God I hate McAfee. Suck a tit

[Kevin D]

Rhea/Becky was good stuff.

Ripley is boss.

[Lee909]

That ladder match was better than I expected. Thought there would be too many teams for that to work

 

Great for R Truth to get that moment at Wrestlemania

That table bump McDonagh took looked a bit rough 

[Kevin D]

Great match, not crazy about the finish.

[Lee909]

What the fuck has the Rock got a belt for

[Bruce Spanner]

 

[Kevin D]

Enjoyed that.

[Lee909]

That was far better than I thought  

Especially from the Rock, he looked out of breath doing promos in the build up but fair play he was great there tonight. Expected result really, if Cody is winning it tomorrow it was always going to be the hard way

 

Fans in audience far more split than expected. 

 

Good night 1 overall

 

Even if the Rock being given a dummy belt was naf. He's above needing one. And McAffee is like some ball sport commentator that finds a way to cram 36 words in when 5 will do, before completely contradicting himself 30 seconds later. 

 

 

Would like to see Andrade and Santos Escobar get a one on one feud 

[Leyton388]

Another predictable bore fest from WWE. I swear they haven't had an original idea since the attitude era. 

 

They'll push Cody to the side and Brock will return and end Roman.

Pathetic stuff in main event  - Dwayne running around cheating and telling ref he'll fire him if he counted him out in a match where if his team were the 'winners' they get free reign the following night made last night irrelevant. May as well have just not bothered.

 

They've booked themselves into a corner all the way with this shite, they have tonight to put it right and still can, but as it stands it is an overbooked mess.

Still a Hitman man myself. 90s was where it was at.

Hitman, Perfect, DiBiase all great wrestlers and great on the mic with the exception of young Bret.

I mean this is all setting up for Rhodes to overcome everything tonight to make his victory even sweeter and it allows for people to show up in his corner as well.

Also, Rock was in no way exposed and worked an acceptable match, didn't look like he got hurt, etc...

 

The show was just aight, though. Lynch-Ripley was good. Intercontinental title was good. Main event was decent. The rest felt like meaningless filler. Won't be hard to do better tonight.

[RedKnight]

The Uso match was a massive let-down.

 

The Rock was surprisingly good given his age and lack of action.

[Lee909]

I'm surprised so many people are shocked that Cody lost last night. If they are putting the title on him as everyone thinks then it was always going to do it the hard way

He certainly didn’t look 51. 
 

Getting back into ring shape and pinning Cody makes it more likely we’ll be seeing a program between those two.

There's juice in this "final boss" board member heel character he's playing. Obviously, he'll also get cheers but it's way more interesting. If he turns on Reigns, I just don't see the point. Like cool, he's another legend babyface who will burry people when he's around.

That said, Rock will no doubt face Roman at some Mania. Would just prefer if his shtick wasn't rehearsed catchphrase babyface guy.

Not sure Roman will ever be a fan favourite enough fir it to be any different. 

 

 

McIntyre win

Great for him,fully deserved. 

 

 

[Lee909]

Well well well

 

Surprised as they'd been doing fuck all with Priest for ages
