Sounds like we might get a debut and/or return at mania. I'm guessing the debut would be the bullet club and the return would be Cesaro if either happen. I'd certainly be ecstatic to see either.

I'll always 'love' Hawk but I believe he sucks at his job now a days and I'm ready for him to go away.

That's hilarious if they actually believed that. She's awful at literally everything and until she becomes even acceptable at something everyone is going to hate her. The fact that Bayley got a solid match out of her a few months ago might be the most impressive feat in the history of wrestling.

Zach Sabre Jr. (Vs Nakamura for those who wanna get familiar) Will Ospreay Marty Scrull (vs Ospreay) https://youtu.be/kc5-HspzRLs Those are names to keep an eye on. Scrull isn't great but he's a good character. It's pretty awesome how they're doing these qualifying matches and pretty crazy too. Good stuff.

Yup, they planned this perfectly around my vacation. Thanks and take that, Mike!

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 26, 2016 -> 10:32 PM) Could have just called the travel on him Not a travel though. He didn't do much yesterday but happy for Brunson, hope they win this thing.

Him losing to Hunter for no reason is what really buried the angle completely. Had their hottest story in years and had no clue what to do with it. The pipe bomb, contract signing and ppv were all incredible though.

Ya The Punisher kicked all sorts of ass. What an awesome f***in season.

QUOTE (shipps @ Mar 25, 2016 -> 12:36 PM) Tony and Rowand44 will be delighted to know that there are literally Cubs in the field at MaddonLand. LOL I really don't get mad with all their shennanigans it just seems like so much over kill of trying to lighten the mood. I'm going to bring a baby bear to your work one day for you to hang out with!

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 25, 2016 -> 04:06 PM) :) You're the first person I thought of when I saw that. That's kind of sad ha.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 24, 2016 -> 02:58 PM) Rodon has some of the best pure stuff in baseball. He was a surefire #1 pick before his draft year started and a couple of teams over thought things. He has a ceiling of a workhorse version of Chris Sale. I like Fulmer a lot, but he is no where near that league in terms of ceiling. Such a thing does not exist.

Can't Gawker and Hogan both just go away?

Danks, Avi and Davidson are going to be absolute monsters this year!

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Mar 23, 2016 -> 01:47 PM) It's a matter of what people have become used to. People are used to the Marvel tone and formula, it has conditioned them. After BvS ended, at least 30 people stayed after the credits waiting for a post credits scene, when DC has repeatedly said they won't do that in their films. The Marvel films have conditioned them to do that. People are used to going to the theater to watch a CBM and having the Marvel experience. They've been releasing at least two movies a year since 2008 and have dominated the market with their films. And let's not act like DC hasn't had good movies. Superman 1+2, Batman, Batman Returns and Forever, The Dark Knight Trilogy. They had good movies. Yes they had missed but Marvel has had some too. Let's not forget that. So all these movie critics who are paid for this stuff are just conditioned to not like these movies? Amazing how the Marvel stuff was able to get around that after Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy conditioned everyone to want the darker movies. I also don't think anyone has ever said DC hasn't had good movies or that all of Marvel's stuff has been perfect but the way you defend some of the recent DC stuff is just bizarre.

Nobody cares if these movies are lighthearted or dark it's just if they're good or bad. For the most part Marvel movies have been good and DC not so much, not much else to it.

Speaking of NXT, Emma is back. Her Evil Emma character has been fantastic so let's see how bad they screw her up this time.

They're having fun, good for them.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 21, 2016 -> 10:05 PM) What a terrible ME on raw. How was the beginning of it? Decent show? Owens and Styles Had an absolutely fantastic match until a Jericho distraction finish but I understand going that route. Besides that...god awful.

Besides Kevin Owens that show was god awful again.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 21, 2016 -> 09:52 PM) Bubby Ray needs to heel singles run. TNA is awful but one thing they absolutely killed it with was the Bully Ray character. He could be one of the top heels on the roster easily. Wish they'd brake them up. Agreed.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 21, 2016 -> 09:32 PM) I think the card is the best they could really do with Cena and Seth and Orton and Cesaro all out, it is what it's. I'm not gonna beat a dead horse by pointing out Roman getting boo'd every show or the lack of creativity. I'll just hope the matches are good. Usos-Dudleys, new day-LoN and Kalisto-Ryback are actually wrestlemania matches. The ME was always going to be what it is but they could have loaded up the under card and they botched that. Not to mention that this Shane-Taker story has just become a joke after the initial fun of Shane's return.

Vince's idea of getting creative was definitely just making everything a gimmick match. Their problem is they have no idea how to build characters or storylines so no one cares about most of these matches. I have no doubt it'll be a fun show but it's still a distant 3rd on what I'm looking forward to going to that weekend and that's kind of sad.

Sin Cara and Zack Ryder get to be in the same mania match as Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, ha ha ha. Should be a fun clusterf*** though like 90 percent of the card.
