LOLOL, doesn't involve Orton though

incredible how aj is the most over wrestler in the company without the exposure that certain other stars get
sincerly hope for him that he headlines mania


Yeah it's fucking dumb, main event will most likely be Taker/Cena though



Sidenote:


According to Paddy Power, here are the latest odds for the 2018 WWE Royal Rumble PPV with the favorites being listed first:

Men's Royal Rumble Top 5
Shinsuke Nakamura 5/6
Roman Reigns 5/2
Daniel Bryan 9/2
Dolph Ziggler 9/2
Finn Balor 7/1

Women's Royal Rumble Top 5
Ronda Rousey 11/8
Asuka 6/4
Becky Lynch 6/1
Nia Jax 8/1
Nikki Bella 10/1

Interesting that Rousey is the favorite, makes me wonder if she'll actually debut there. Either way getting my free month for the PPV because I always enjoy the Rumbles

Tbh i dont really care about Cena vs Taker, its one of those match that should have happened a few years ago
co main event this match sure but not the main event

Just give the victory to Nakamura and Asuka
Give the mania headline to aj vs nakamura
and book Asuka vs Ronda Rousey at mania (Rousey wins the title at elimination chamber by making her debut)

2 solid matches that are interesting booking
(undefeated streak of asuka vs rousey for the title)
A rematch of Aj vs Nakamura from wrestle kingdom 10 which will be a great final for the night

Some dumb wwe fans might complain but to pro wrestling fans its 2 dream match that should live up to expectations (i doubt a little bit about rousey vs asuka but im 100% sure that aj vs nakamura will be a 5 star)

Someone hire this man to Creative! Asuka/Rousey could be an amazing match if built up to and booked right. Styles/Nakamura is easily MOTY potential, if not hands down.

Apparently Stephanie joining announce team for female RR match. Shoot me now :angry:

even with 30 persons on the creative team they constantly rebook their shows which often end up being a mess, back then they were doing long view booking
which helped a lot to create better angles/storyline/moments, their win/lose system that dosent matter is killing them, the 100% scripted promos dosent give creativity to the wrestler to establish some part of his characters

they are doing what WCW was doing back then and because there isnt any other viable competition they dont need to change the formula
which dosent give us the product that we want to see
but with New Japan agressive push in the United States we might get a solid alternative ;)

Yep, thats the thing there's no real competition so Vince has been complacent even with things like RoH/Lucha/NJPW around they aren't making a big enough splash in the water to be seen as a threat. Get NJPW here in the states and that changes.

It will change REAL bad if NJPW keeps Jericho long enough and gives him a title in one of the US events? Ooooh boy.

According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com, the current plan right now is for The Miz to defend the IC Title against Braun Strowman at WrestleMania. Meltzer noted the following about Strowman


Really fucking hope this isnt true, makes no sense. Although wouldn't mind Braun with a title run.

Watching Braun destroy the midcard for a few months before going back to the main-event picture would be entertaining

Plus the promos Miz would cut only for him to be scared shitless as soon as Braun shows himself would be comedy gold :lol:

There's zero believability about Miz beating Braun though. Lol.
