Badlittlekitten Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Holy shit, EC3! They really should stop cramming everyone in the card like this. I get why they do it but come on. It's silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 11 minutes ago, Alucard said: So as of now not on the card that leaves: The Usos, The Revival, Black & Ricochet, The Bar, Rusev & Nakamura, Big E & Xavier. Well... At this point, it's obvious WWE is nothing but a retirement pension for Nak. Remember when he showed up three years ago at Takeover and had that great match with Sami Zayn (whoever he is) and looked like a total star ? 11 minutes ago, Alucard said: They announced 29 entrants for the Andre: Braun Strowman, Colin Jost, Michael Che, Andrade, Apollo Crews, Titus O'Neil, Tyler Breeze, Jinder Mahal, No Way Jose, Bobby Roode, Chad Gable, Lucha House Party, Bo Dallas, Curtis Axel, Heath Slater, Rhyno, the Ascension, Ali, Shelton Benjamin, Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson, The Hardyz, Heavy Machinery, and EC3. The "Never knew they were still employed" crew. I like that I'm gonna get a Joe vs Rey match, but really, Andrade in this waste of time after the stuff they did on TV... And... Ali ? ALI ? JUST ALI NOW ? It's amazing. WWE guys just just be called by a first name. Steve. Joe. Daniel. Roman. Brock. Triple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NintendoLogic Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 3 hours ago, SomethingSavage said: I know a lot of people don't care for the gimmick, but a Tag Team Turmoil (a rapid fire, fast-paced sprint with a bunch of eliminations) on the pre-show could be a fun way to cram a lot of folks on the card for a payday. This way of thinking is outdated, I think. Wrestlemania sells out before the card is even announced, and the Network means that nobody is an individual PPV draw. With WWE's current financial situation, they can easily afford to give everybody a Mania payday regardless of whether or not they appear and then keep the show to a manageable length.

Coffey Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 I've been doing the ketogenic gimmick for several months now. So I'm going to get me some BW3's hot wings & try to make Wrestlemania feel special. It's so long though, goodness. I can't imagine how exhausting it'll be to the fans that are attending live. I have company coming over to watch the show, otherwise I would most likely watch it in shifts over the course of a couple of days. Have to take a power nap to get through it. I'm not a spring chicken anymore. The card is intriguing, if nothing else. My biggest issue is that no one in WWE feels like a star, so none of the matches jump out at me as must-see.

Tim Evans Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Have they announced what's going to be on the preshow yet? I'm guessing the women's battle royal, Rey/Joe and the Cruiserweight title match are givens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuttsy Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Calling it now, Cena's match is him and Truth v Rusev & Nakamura. Either they shoot an angle for it on Tuesday or save the whole thing for the show itself but he saves Truth from the two of them and they have a little house show tag match just like the Australia stadium show where Cena works about 90 seconds total after getting the hot tag. Very interested to see where the tag-teams end up, it certainly makes storyline sense for Vince to punish the Usos in some fashion for forfeiting on Tuesday but who knows. Usos v Revival would be my preference but I don't see the Bar getting left off. I think Rey and Joe make the main card because it's a quick match and you need those to break up the longer ones. My guess would be pre-show is the Cruiserweight Title, both battle royals and either or both tag-titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-"match" against Taker? E.g. Taker coming out, complaining that he has no match and doing an open challenge anwered by Cena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taker should never ever wrestle again, he has looked pathetic for a few years now, it's sad. Apparently he will though, for the upcoming Saudi shows, so who knows...

peachchaos Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 I could see Taker being a surprise entrant in The Andre since there's only 29 announced so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoLogic Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 I find the name of the Andre Battle Royal interesting because I distinctly remember "battle royal" being on Vince's list of banned phrases at one point. He insisted that they be called over-the-top-rope challenges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachchaos Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Part of me wishes one of these years they'd run a 30 person food fight and called it a "Battle Royale". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strummer Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Post wrestling says tag title matches will be added this week. SD will be a multi team. Raw was added after they dropped Asuka's match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herodes Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Let’s face it Bret Hart vs Tom Magee is more anticipated than any match on WrestleMania. Megaman is the hottest wrestler in the world right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alucard Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 they ran Usos vs The Bar vs Rusev & Nakamura at the house show last night so I'm guessing that might end up the WM match. Seems very random rather than the first time dream match that Usos/Hardyz would've been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first thought was that Cena and Taker have the big 25 minute WM epic that they didn't have last year. I hope that doesn't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
