I wouldn't be surprised if Vince thought about having Hogan recreate the ending of Wrestle-Mania 9, because Bryan and Kofi are both just B+ Players...

wordsfromlee Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 If the show is going to be 7-8 hours then I reckon it's going to take me about 3 or 4 days to watch it all in my free time what with work and home etc. Dunno if I can be arsed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King of Old School Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 I'd open with Rey/Joe tonight, think that would be a decent match to get the crowd going. Card placement is going to be important for tonight to stop the crowd losing interest. Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intrigued to see what ends up in the death spot before the women’s triple threat. Reckon it’ll be the RAW tag titles and it’ll get 5minutes tops hopefully with The Revival retaining because fuck Hawkins & Ryder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Fox Piss Posted April 7, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted April 7, 2019 AJ v Orton Joe v Rey Lashley v Finn Roman v Drew These 4 matches are proper cannon fodder. Take these 4 matches out and you've got a alright card with enough light stuff to break it up. Pray these matches don't get much time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Lashley/Finn is the only one on that list that has no chance to be any good. Both AJ/Orton and Joe/Rey could be very good, and I can't begrudge Roman a place on the card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members WeeAl Posted April 7, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted April 7, 2019 If the worst match on the show ends up being anything other than the women's four corners tag, then I'll eat the Rasta hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Those four matches just have no momentum - which is fine for multi-man tag sprints and whatever, but it can suck the life out when they’re long singles matches. The Balor one will hopefully be a  quick squash like SummerSlam. The other three, they’re all great wrestlers but it’s hard to care about the feuds and so it’s hard to see how they’ll rise above the level of a Raw/Smackdown match. Hopefully they do though!

Paid Members WeeAl Posted April 7, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted April 7, 2019 Yeah they do seem very thrown together. The US Title match, once it wasn't going to be Andrade Vs Rey and Joe got the title, really would have benefitted from being a four or five way bit of madness, much like the fast lane match. Rey/Joe/Andrade/Ali or something like that. Balor squashing Lashley will be fine, and the kind of short match that needs interspersed with the longer bouts. I understand wanting to do Orton Vs AJ as a singles, but it feels lost in the shuffle here. I'm surprised we never got the long series between them when AJ was champ. Or maybe we did and It's completely escaped me. Roman Vs Drew is strange as it should be a big deal but there's too much going on with this card. Maybe the right idea would have been to do Corbin Vs Reigns and have Reigns flatten him quickly. They can't do that with Drew though as he needs protecting, so it could suffer from being pretty cold going in and also being expected to go fairly long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted April 7, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted April 7, 2019 It's a shame about the length if it burns the crowd out but otherwise it doesn't bother me at all. Got no intention of ever watching Mania live again unless I finally go (next year hopefully). So I'll just put it on in the morning and skip all the stuff that I don't need to watch unspoiled, tell myself I'll watch it later and never watch it and never lose any sleep about it. If we're honest, there are only about 5 Manias that shouldn't be digested that way anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrongStyle Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 What time does everything kick off tonight? Flying out to Dublin at 3pm tomorrow but I think I am going to subject myself to the torture of the full caboodle live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
