GDT: WWE Fastlane post-show thread

[The Lunatic Fridge]

Takeover Dallas is going to **** all over the Mania card it isn't even fair. Won't post the spoilers, but good god its not even a contest.

HHH goes over with that card, while Roman goes over HHH getting booed the next night.

Our only hope is that the NXT roster comes out to the ring during the main event and beats reigns like a government mule for 20 minutes.

I'm actually astounded how they are finding more ways to make the main event sound worse. The entire stadium of 100k people will be chanting for Triple H and that's just sad.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Maybe they should turn him. Have him say he doesn't need the fans and doesn't care what they think about him. Somehow, HHH can be DX-like and come off as the smart ass face. Otherwise, this will be the worse WM I can remember on record.

They should of turned him a year ago. They should of turned him after Seth got hurt.

Yet here we are.

 

[Blanick]

The WrestleMania main event is going to be hilarious though. That crowd is going to **** all over that match and Vince doesn't have a MITB to save it this time.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Our only hope is that the NXT roster comes out to the ring during the main event and beats reigns like a government mule for 20 minutes.

If Balor Club came out and just beat the **** out of Roman I'd mark, but then Finn would need to go over in an actual title match before I felt safe.

 

[The Gongshow]

Wyatt has no storyline (AND HAD THE BUILD FOR ONE, BUT LOLWWE), Styles will get a curtain jerker match, Owens will get some like 10 minute garbage in the midcard, some old guys will fill out the under card, and Reigns will go over.

There, the worst wrestlemania since probably 11.

And to think WWE/tonight could have set up..

Dean vs HHH for the title

Dean vs Brock (which might happen)

New Day vs Enzo and Cass

New Day vs ??? vs ??? TLC II


But instead we get

HHH vs Reigns

New Day vs LON

Wyatts being buried by old guys and botchfest

my god this company. Vince stop what your doing

 

[Sheppy]

Man the lack of outrage has been disappointing.

I think we've grown to expect the worst

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Like it or not, Reigns is booked to be a strong ass mofo as well. It's funny how no one bats an eyelash to Brock no-selling a FINISHER, but Reigns seizes an opportunity after a couple chair shots and everyone goes ape.

He is booked like a strong ass mofo see the problem is he actually isn't one. Where Brock is, Brock has earned the reputation he has because he legit can kick peoples ass and is a freak of nature. Reigns is none of those things so it doesn't work, I know it is shocking.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

You would think reality would set in for them with Roman. He has not come close to getting over to a level befitting a main event wrestler and it's not for a lack of trying. The experiment has failed. Cut your losses and move on.

vince's ego can't accept the fact that he's wrong

 

[Machinehead]

I'm no Lesnar fan but at least the fans give a **** about him.

It's not even that Roman no sells and and of itself. It's the fact that it's the most disliked face I ever remember and WWE keeps telling us "no, he's unstoppable."

And people complained about Cena with that in 2006-2007. Cena's hat was move over than Roman ever will be.

 

[Sheppy]

Man, if I bought a ticket package for this years Mania I would probably be ******** my pants right now.

He is going to challenge Brock tomorrow, and get promptly squashed at Mania.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Roman Reigns is the Kevan Miller of main event wrestlers.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

The LAW is instantly pissing all over the PPV.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Man, if I bought a ticket package for this years Mania I would probably be ******** my pants right now.

I would be bringing a lot of liquor.

 

[The Gongshow]

Can't wait for the RAW after Mania when they open the show with Reigns getting booed out of the building

 

[Emperoreddy]

Brock was legit THE babyface in this match tonight. People wanted him to crush both Roman and Dean and win this match. Dean was the second choice and no one wanted Roman.

There is no getting around this. Roman IS NOT OVER. Come at me wrestlezone and the Roman marks over there and prove me wrong.

 

[The Gongshow]

He is going to challenge Brock tomorrow, and get promptly squashed at Mania.

The Wyatts couldn't even beat the 40+ year old "Titans" how they heck are they gonna look credible aginst Brock freakin' Lensar who is a GOD

I'm still not on board with a guy no-selling the hell out of a finisher. And a guy also doesn't have to be completely dead after a couple of chair shots to the back. But then we would get the great "Omg Roman is sleeping again!!" comments.

I agree. I don't see myself ever coming around on the guy.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Chicago
Pittsburgh
Philadelphia
Brooklyn

Those are the locations for the RAWs leading up to Mania. Good luck with that, Roman.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

The sad thing is he's not killing his company. The money keeps flowing in. He can do what he wants.

we'll see about that cash flow when the tv rights are up again and they lose another million viewers....

Roman no sold a finisher that has broken arms both in kayfabe and real life while he was no selling chair shots. There is no defending this. Just because no selling works for Brock doesn't mean it works for Roman.

 

[Emperoreddy]

The LAW is instantly pissing all over the PPV.

It was a perfect storm of bad booking AND bad work. A lot of the matches were so botchy.

Don't forget the 30 second Kimura which has broken guys arms in kayfabe before. I mean complaining about Brock no selling is like complaining about Taker no selling in his prime, they are held to different standards then other wrestlers.

They won't, but they don't care about stories working or making sense obviously.

I don't want this Mania feud, but we are still going to get it most likely.
