Bray needs a Wrestlemania Win, I just don't know who would be a legitimate opponent for him to look strong at Mania.

Unless they bring up Samoa Joe to feud with Bray.

Was just talking about WM with my friend, the Rock still needs an opponent

He aint wrestling just to be involved sumhow he ain't dumb enough to wrestle and get hurt again

So Rock will never wrestle at WM again?

 

[Broddie]

It's impossible for a guy shooting a movie during wrestlemania to wrestle. Studios won't allow it. Dwayne won't have any matches on that card.

 

[5th Letter]

But didn't HHH put over D-Lo anyway?

Not this one, I think he filming a movie and they got him insured. Dude couldn't wrestle if he wanted to

 

[jono]

D- Lo got the Euro title from him.

Who does Brey Wyatt face

Take your pick of Kane or Big Show

I'm laughing to hide the pain, man... I don't get it. I'm not trying to be the whiny smarky fan, but Vince doesn't real or the type of monster the what's or even just Bray himself could be with the right booking.. Eh

 

[eternal soldier]

I don't what it is but if Miss Jackie isn't going to the HOF, I feel like Sable should.. Too bad that list is already looking real this year.. Random thought

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon apparently wants the upcoming WrestleMania 32 event to be the start of "several years" of Roman Reigns in the company's top spot that was formerly held by John Cena.

According to the report, "the plan is for Reigns to go over and be the top babyface in the company for years to come."

The overall attitude within WWE is that it doesn't really make a difference if the fans boo Reigns because, as is evident with Cena, cheers and boos aren't damaging to the babyface of a franchise such as WWE, and diverse reactions from fans can often be seen as a good thing since they can launch stars to bigger levels of business. However, it's also well known that Reigns is not as big of a star as Cena, even though his merchandise numbers are good.

Reigns does nothing well and is average at best at everything all he has is a look.

Smh this will backfire really bad. Reigns will never be that popular . With Cena it's different . Cuz he was well known outside wresting . Reigns not even as popular as Cena before his first reign and he already getting the boos .

Russo also recalled a time while writing for WWF when Triple H had a problem putting over a member of the Nation of Domination.

"We wanted him to put D-Lo over, and Triple H wouldn't do it," Russo said. "He was not dating Stephanie McMahon at that time. He was getting over with DX at the time and we wanted to give D-Lo a little something and Hunter would not do it. I've not worked with him in 15 years, but I think about that moment because I was surprised because so many people had laid down for him to get him over."

Russo wondered if being married to Stephanie McMahon and being in his position affected things for Triple H as it pertained to being involved in big stories.

"Being married to Stephanie and with a little more power is it more of a problem? I listened to the CM Punk [podcasts] and it sounded like it was," Russo said, before saying at least the Reigns/Triple H segment got heat

When has Haitch ever put a black person over? Fuck that cracker.

How do you get 100,000 people to cheer Reigns?

 

[(ob)Scene]

How do you get 100,000 people to cheer Reigns?

Buy a delorean, go back in time to ensure that there's never such a thing as "dirt sheets." That way there's no-one to tell people who Vince "likes" and they should in turn be fake outraged over.

 

[Idiopathic Joker]

I think you screw reigns out the belt in the most fucked up way at mania. Triple h celebrates then Shane helps him out in some way

When it comes to being the franchise player in ring is irrelevant. It's about having charisma and a personality which hate him or love him Cena had in spades. Reigns can't even be moved past the tired ass Shield gimmick and theme due to his lack of engagement outside the ring.

The only star making quality he literally posseses is "the look" and that alone won't cut it. He got the charisma of a wet mop and personality of a plank of wood right now.
