Undefeated Steak Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I think Shane had to accept a buyout of most or all of his voting shares when he left to do the whole Rory McIlroy/Chinese PPV thing, so it'll be Steph and Hunter with majority control. Â Ah, cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lenin Posted February 24, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted February 24, 2016 The massiver swerve with Shane was tremendous but I can't see a 50 year old Shane taking 'the bump' off the cage or anything which is really all I'd want to see. I suspect that Cena or Batista will be the ones to step in on Shane's behalf.  HHH absolutely killed Reigns in that segment. 10 years ago I'd have been upset by it but HHH is, in 2016, the best they have. Cena wouldn't have got those reactions. HHH knows exactly what he's doing and, for the first time ever, I can see HHH actually winning a title match at 'Mania.

King Pitcos Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Did you not watch the other ones where he won title matches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil is brill Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Triple H's Wrestlemania World Title Match wins:  16 - Retained in the Fatal Four Way 18 - Won the title from Jericho 19 - Retained against Booker T 25 - Retained against Orton  I can definitely see Wrestlemania 32 being the first time he wins a title match.

Paid Members Supremo Posted February 24, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted February 24, 2016 The last time I can remember Hunter being a proper heel that I wanted to see get battered was in the build up to the Daniel Bryan match at Wrestlemania 30. There was that one particular segment that was ridiculously heavy, where he handcuffed Bryan and beat the living shit out of him. Did he crotch chop then? Or do a babyface pose afterwards? I genuinely can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) No, he didn't. Â He knows what's up. I genuinely believe they're far more savvy than some of us would make out. I think they've pitched a tent with Reigns, including him sitting front and centre of the upcoming Tapout campaign (until it launches in April, his is the only face you see on their website) and once that's launched they'll either fuck him into the midcard or turn him heel. For me, Monday was their sign they know what's up with Reigns. Edited February 24, 2016 by d-d-d-dAz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted February 24, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted February 24, 2016 Turning heel makes so much more sense than a life in Dolph's Magical Land of 50/50. With the heat he's getting (albeit unintended), it'd be mad not to capitalise on that. Plus, he still has much more of an aura about him than most of the roster. He stands out.

Sphinx Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Reigns vs. Triple H should be a great match. Reigns is great in brawls and obviously Triple H is. I jizz everytime I see Triple H's punches, and it was no different in that segment. Â Ambrose and Lesnar should be great too. I'd called for that to be the match ages ago so I'm very glad they're doing that over Wyatt which would have been shit. Â I'm excited for whatever Taker match we get too and where that story leads. Hopefully into a proper overhaul of the visual side of WWE with the new owner. Â This Wrestlemania could be like the last one where both had shite builds but were great entertainment on the night.

Paid Members air_raid Posted February 24, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted February 24, 2016 I suspect that Cena or Batista will be the ones to step in on Shane's behalf. Â Batista is filming Guardians 2 while Mania happens and is so disillusioned with the company in respect to his last run among other things that he was tweeting to Titus telling him to try and get his release over the suspension debacle. He's not coming back any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lenin Posted February 24, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Yeah I saw you that on Twitter. Obviously won't be him if he's filming...thought the film was done before mania and he would be doing promotional stuff. Point is I'd be very surprised if Shane vs Taker goes ahead, even with shenanigans. Edited February 24, 2016 by Suplex Sinner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep81 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I just can't see Taker coming back and aligning with Vince for his 'home' Wrestlemania. Â Taker/Shane is so fucking bonkers, i think im all for it lol, but i still think Cena or someone else might take Shane's place. Hopefully we find out on Monday.

Glen Quagmire Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) I still think that by the end of this year Roman Reigns will be the World Heavyweight Champion.   The TNA World Heavyweight Champion the same night be makes a shock début in the Impact Zone  Edited February 25, 2016 by Glen Quagmire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briefcase Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Changing the subject slightly but has anyone else been really impressed with Charlotte recently? She has done a good job of turning from face to heel gradually over the last few months and just plays the bitch role really well, good on the mic and am throughly enjoying her run as Diva Champ (never thought I would care about Divas), as a face I couldn't stand her but her cockiness since winning the title and turning heel over time rather than just suddenly has been tremendous. Edited February 25, 2016 by Briefcase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanoTheGame Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 She's a lot better as a heel due to her being naturally unlikeable and smug, but she's still pretty shit inside the ring and has the worst looking spear I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
