First two hours were quality but third hour was eye rolling and WTFs.

Eva Marie's crowd reaction was something needed to be seen

Meltzer said wwe indeed expected her to get a huge pop.

Then they're dumber then we ever gave them credit for. At least the other 4 divas in the ring played it right. Like they didn't want her here.

 

Eva Marie is awful at wrestling, but she's really hot and as far as personality as come a long way.

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.

I can't imagine they expected a big pop for her and have team baby face shun her. They knew what was going to happen. A big negative pop is probably more of what they meant.

On the Eva Marie deal shows just how out of touch VKM is yet again with the fan base. 2.66 rating just terrible for go home show to WM.

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.

Cesaro is scheduled for the post Mania house shows. Maybe a surprise return in Battle royal to win again? I dunno.

Can help new day since they're a man down. The other guys are an embarrassment to the rest of the world yada yada yada.

I maybe alone, but with as depleted the roster is now and those guys on the verge of coming back, plus with recent signings, I feel WWE could be on the verge of another boom period. But it's all on creative so I'm not holding my breath. Got to let guys get over and stop holding guys down.

Something big is supposed to happen at the end of the New Day match which is why WWE was so set on having it despite LoN not getting over. It's not the rock coming down either, that was my first guess.

If I remember correctly, I thought I saw WWE retweet something from Cena saying his goal was to make it back for mania. I could see him coming out to help new day. Hopefully its something cooler like Cesaro or BC though.....I will admit I do kinda miss Cena though.

Have to imagine Cena is there in some capacity. Same with HBK, the Rock, and Austin. Pretty odd we know what none of them will be doing. I figured HBK would be involved in the Shane/Taker match but I guess not.

They've been hyping Rock's return to WrestleMania for months, despite him being at the last 5 anyway, and still have no clue what he is doing.

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Triple H recently spoke with CBSSports.com to promote this Sunday's WrestleMania 32 event at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Below are some of the highlights from the interview.

 

On the "mixed reaction" Roman Reigns receives from WWE fans:

 

“You know, the hardest thing in this business to do now is, as a character, to either make everyone love you or everyone hate you,” Levesque said with a laugh. “The world is a divided place in politics, in music and everything. Choices now, and people’s opinions, are front and center more than ever. The Internet makes that readily available to everybody. They know all of the machinations of everything and the behind-the-scenes of everything, you know."

 

On changes in crowd reactions to babyfaces over the years:

 

“It used to be that the good guy was the guy that didn’t cheat, you know what I mean? It was just very simple. The world has changed. I think [Reigns has] done a phenomenal job. He’s, you know, from a behind-the-scenes standpoint, a great human being. I’m really happy for his success, as I am for all of them…

 

“The days of everybody loves the white knight and everybody hates the dark knight are gone. You’ve seen it for, what, the last 10 years with John Cena. I used to say to John all the time, ‘You’re the Red Sox and the Yankees in the same game. Half the place hates you, half the place loves you, but it’s full, so who cares?'”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty accurate to me. As long as the fans keep mixed reactions but filling the seats, there's no reason to change the philosophy, no matter how many smart 'marks' there are out on the interwebz.

 

That's the political answer from H. Cena moved the needle, Roman hasn't so far.

 

In other news, it sounds like the stupid butterfly belt will be gonezo on raw. Thank Jebus.

Oh wow. I hope it's there for the WM winner because they deserve it. I assume they're changing the name too?

Report says it will look like heavyweight belt but smaller and with a white strap. And yes, no more Divas title. Should have Trish on Raw or something to present it.

Any chance Austin f***s Vince over one last time in his home state by helping Shane win?

Something like that I'm thinking will happen. Seemed like that plan was for HBK or the rock or someone to be the ref. Obviously not happening but I imagine some big time shenanigans in that match.

Good move with the women's division.

 

Name change: Divas --> Womens == very smart.

Title change: corny butterfly --> professional belt == smart

 

Friday Night at 9pm EST on WWE Network

Justin and I are more excited for this show than WrestleMania. The build up to the matches have been great.

 

Austin Aries debuts vs Baron Corbin

I'm not too familiar with Aries. Small guy debuting vs a big guy is intriguing. Corbin has improved so much over the past year. Finding his personality as a jerk big guy heel. If he is called up soon, hope they let him stay that way.

 

 

The Revival vs American Alpha for the NXT Tag Team Championship

American Alpha is a great team. Maybe the best to ever come out of NXT. I don't see what HHH sees in The Revival. They're generic and get no reaction. Pushing them as old school isn't working.

 

Bayley vs Asuka for the NXT Women's Championship

This will be the best match on the card. No doubt. The crowd will be hot for it and I really have no clue who wins.

 

Sami Zayn vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (debut)

I'm not too familiar with Nakamura but everyone is stoked for his debut. The 2nd NXT in ring debut of the show. Probably Sami's final NXT match.

 

Finn Balor © vs. Samoa Joe for the NXT Championship

I was hoping they'd go with Zayn vs Finn but with Sami being called up, a rematch makes sense. Their London match was solid so this should be no different.
