This would draw unflattering comparisons to The Mountie going to jail though. Which nothing in company history will ever eclipse. Quote
Paid Members Statto Posted February 23, 2023 Paid Members Posted February 23, 2023 I think I said it in the Rumble thread, but I'm of the opinion that anything involving Rey/Dom at Mania needs to be a Jailhouse Match, and they need to rip off the Mountie skits, with Ex-Con Dom freaking out over being booked into a not that intimidating local jail for the night. If anyone can pull it off, it's him. Boy's doing great work right now. Quote
The King of Old School Posted February 23, 2023 Posted February 23, 2023 I think we'll see something like the following at Mania.. Night 1 Raw & SD Tag Titles - Uso's vs Owens & Zayn US Title - Theory vs Cena Rey vs Dominick Solo vs Riddle Lashley vs Bray Smackdown Women's Title - Charlotte vs Rhea Night 2 WWE Title - Roman vs Cody Brock vs Omos Logan Paul vs Seth Rollins Raw Women's Title - Bianca vs Asuka Edge vs Balor IC Title - Gunther vs Sheamus vs Drew Women's Tag Titles - Damage Ctrl vs Becky/Lita vs Ronda/Shayna Quote
Harvey Dent Posted February 23, 2023 Posted February 23, 2023 I really hope KO/Sami vs Usos is the night 1 main. You know those 4 will deliver, only second tag main event in Mania history and it has the story. All leading into it coming crashing down for Roman night 2. Quote
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted February 23, 2023 Paid Members Posted February 23, 2023 Rey v Dominick with the stipulation that if Dom wins Rhea gets to remove Rey's mask in the ring, and if Rey wins Rhea has to cut Dom's hair. Then have Dom act like Art Barr getting his hair cut by Eddie Guerrero at the end of When World's Collide when he loses. Quote

I can see them actually having Rey loose and mask passes to Dom as a heel living off that name Quote

It must be a tough paper round in the 619 area code. Quote

Vamp Posted February 24, 2023 Posted February 24, 2023 I wonder if there's a danger that if you book Zayn on night one fans will end up fantasy booking him into the main on night 2. Quote

Version1.0 Posted March 5, 2023 Posted March 5, 2023 Going to have to get a few multi-person matches included otherwise only 35 wrestlers are on Mania over 2 nights. Quote

Vamp Posted March 5, 2023 Posted March 5, 2023 They try and get everyone on the card so that they all get the WrestleMania payday I believe. Been that way since WrestleMania 19 or 20 I think? Wrestlers complained about not getting on the card They'll just chuck a battle royal on there and some multi tags or something. I don't mind it to be honest. Feels right to have a battle royal on your biggest card of the year. Quote
Paid Members Statto Posted March 6, 2023 Paid Members Posted March 6, 2023 FWIW, there was a story/rumour last week that Triple H was in favour of not shoehorning everyone onto the card just for the sake of it. The battle royal got bumped to "Wrestlemania Smackdown" on the Friday night last year (possibly the year before too?) I assume they just coughed up a bonus for everyone anyway. Quote
Paid Members Daaaaaad! Posted March 7, 2023 Paid Members Posted March 7, 2023 The card for this is shaping up to be really, really strong. Lots of matches I’m excited to see and even the crap or stupid ones will have their threads of intrigue. For instance, I’m not fussed about seeing Edge vs. Balor, but it does at least have a proper backstory to it. Other than the terrible Wyattverse, this year’s show feels like it’s earning its two night bill. Quote
