WWE: GDT: Wrestlemania 39

No, I'm telling people to stop taking it too seriously and stop insulting people.

That’s fair enough, that probably goes a little to far.

 

[dahrougem2]

They're really gonna stretch this garbage out until next Wrestlemania to do The Rock vs Roman.

IF that's the plan it's a stupid one. I think the person who takes the title off of Roman needs to have a lot of emotion behind him, much like Zayn/Owens taking the titles off of the Usos.

For me Cody was just never that guy.

 

[CDJ]

Solo is gonna end this reign, it's gonna be like Orton v HHH with the prodigy v the master but no middle man of Benoit like that storyline had.

That was my exact thought when he was standing over both of them at the end

 

[EverettMike]

There's literally nothing they could do right now to make me tune back in.

Let me know when Reigns retires.

 

[keonsbitterness]

You can't have a guy who was thrown out earlier come out again and interfere. It wasn't like it was a mystery. The announcers knew who it was right away.

Clearly we need VAR in wrestling.

 

[dahrougem2]

Every babyface champ ever sucks when they get the belt. One of them still has to get the belt at some point.

Disagree here.

Roman isn't losing to Rock if that match ever happens.

 

[dahrougem2]

Roman isn't losing to Rock if that match ever happens.

Which is why I think that match happens next year but Roman won't have the titles on him.

 

[Grackle Party]

Roman probably isn’t even working backlash doubt the title is on the line till summer slam.

 

[CDJ]

I love Roman but that's just WWE once again taking a dump on a wrote-itself story and the ending everyone wanted for the sake of a swerve.

And the "swerve" isn't even surprising anymore because they default to Roman pulling it out all the time.

Idk that was pretty surprising. I think the majority thought Cody would win

You know that's what they're gonna do.

It's in Philadelphia. They're gonna put worked shoot material about the Royal Rumble all over the buildup. They love that shit.

Disagree here.

Who's the last babyface champion who had a great run with the belt and no mixed reactions? Austin?

 

[hockey20000]

I like Cody but in the interest of storyline perfection, Jey needs to be the guy to dethrone Roman. That would put the perfect bow tie on the best wrestling storyline in decades

jey beating roman is boring lol

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

In hindsight, I'm more pissed Drew didn't go over at Clash.

 

[TNT87]

I completely got the woman's title match, HIAC, and Cody vs Reign's match wrong.

 

[Clint Eastwood]

Man I really wanted Cody to win.

If it's not him, I'm hoping Jey takes it off him.

yea i pretty much feel the same. i won't be tuning into raw tomorrow night better things to watch.

 

[Tw1ster]

I was told no one wants to see this and that it’s boring so no, it needed to be Cody and thus we should all be crying right now

 

[Emperoreddy]

They needed faces to win earlier in the night because Roman was going over.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Someone give Roman a muffin

I mean I'm not sure about that, everyone thought there was no way that WWE wouldn't put the straps on Cody with how he's spoken about winning the belts for Dusty. Ending a title reign that's been 900 days+ after he came back earlier on his injury timeline made all the sense in the world for a change in a traditional WWE story line.

 

[Machinehead]

It is boring.

It would be a great moment but absolutely nobody is tuning in during the weeks and months after to see WWE Champion Jey Uso.

At least Cody would have been somewhat believable in that role.

You know that's what they're gonna do.

It's in Philadelphia. They're gonna put worked shoot material about the Royal Rumble all over the buildup. They love that shit.

I don't believe they would put Rock in a match vs Roman with the titles on the line. The outcome would be WAY too obvious and the crowd would turn on the match in a heartbeat. Rock doesn't have that kind of sway with the fans the way he used to.

Babyface champions have been stale in the past because of the creative behind them turning them into good-doers instead of letting them come off as naturally charismatic. Bryan's run post-mania would have been plenty fine had he not suffered the neck injury. Obviously historical babyface champs like Austin/Rock have been a lot better but I think there is still a possibility for babyface champs to succeed if allowed to be charismatic and not overly scripted like Shield Roman.

jey beating roman is boring lol

Can you actually tell us what would work, and how you would book it? Can you add your actual thoughts?

So many of us go above and beyond to explain their points, you show up every 10 days and provide nothing. Much like you’ve done tonight.

How would you have booked this and why?
