Raw women's title match to main event wrestlemania.
It's the right choice(as long as Becky wins) Charlotte now smackdown womens champion, not quite sure what that's about.Quote:

She's been built up just to get spat out by Charlotte. Becky and Charlotte on raw since the rumble and then one of them wins the smackdown title. It's a nonsense.Quote:

Anyone else not arsed about Wrestlemania on Sunday?
I'll watch it live since i'm off the next day but the build up this year has been shocking.
Once again takeover has been fantastic, still Cole Johnny Wrestling to go as well :top marks
That Cole-Johnny match was outstanding :top marksQuote:

Bret Hart attacked whilst giving his hof speech.
Boy who did it got absolutely battered by Shane o, big e, ronda's husband and most notably dash.
Davey boy Smith Jr jumps in as well, you can see him in the gold trousers!
Some wrestling are right ********s top security though 🙄 only watched the 1st 2 takeover matches got to say they were excellent.
Some wrestling fans are a disgrace. I've been to a few wwe events in glasgow but it does stop you going due to the amount idiots at these events.Quote:

2 title changes early on, might mean there's not too many later.
Becky with the Conor McGregor Entrance would be sweet.Quote:

Great PPV so far except for Shane winning.

Motn.
That was superb.
Old School Cena :hyper
Amazing.
Angle :(.
Wrestlemania this year was better than the previous 3 years.
Seth, Becky, Finn, The IIconics and Kofi winning their titles was brilliant. Old School Cena back too. Angle retiring will hurt me more than i could imagine as he's one of my favourite wrestlers of all time. Triple H-Batista was good. Shane going over Miz is a joke.
Kofi's reaction and ending will go down in history as one of the greatest moments in WWE.
That was a good Wrestlemania. Thought that Shane vs Miz was way more entertaining than expected, really enjoyed the women's tag team title match, Kofi winning was a moment and I expected a New Day heel turn against him. Triple H vs Batista was poor and overlong and I really hope that the end of the main event was a botch because if it's been booked as an ending to protect Charlotte or Ronda to continue the feud then that'd suck - first womens main event at WM deserves a clean win.
I give it eight muscly biceps out of ten.
Enjoyed it but felt it was too long. Could cut an hour out of it.
I kind of think that it needs to be the opposite and go to two days. One night headlined by the Universal title, the other the WWE heavyweight title. Go for 4 and a half hours each show. Cut the **** nostalgia matches out.Quote:

Disgraceful.
War Raiders renamed "The Viking Experience" for main roster debut. Is this the first tag team named after a walking tour of York?
How bad is WWE right now. Worst it's ever been and they don't seem to be improving. Fast forward 10 years time and it'll end up like TNA.

I've not watched RAW or Smackdown for months. As a fan of "Something to Wrestle...", I was hoping Bruce Prichard's return to WWE might bring about an improvement, but I understand that hasn't happened. I think a large part of the problem is the bloated roster and the related brand split. With that in mind, I think sustained competition from AEW might be the best thing to happen to WWE longer-term.Quote:

I just hope the main roster shows have sorted their act out by the time TVD is promoted, because that boy is a class act.
So just read that sky sports is losing WWE Bt sports has seemingly got the rights for it now. IT has the rights for AEW at least that's on freeview t.v with ITV showing double or nothing on May 25th
Where's you see that? (about wwe)Quote:

Brocks back.
Watched the first 2 hours of MITB before watching Game of Thrones. Managed just to see the ending of the men’s MITB match. This company doesn’t learn from their mistakes.Quote:

Apparently there is a new title getting debuted on raw tonight as well😂
£63 the cheapest ticket for raw in Glasgow in November. 😂
I’ll just hold off and get a ticket cheaper nearer the event.
£63 :faf::faf:Quote:

Ziggler's promo was fantastic. He deserves a good run. His promo ability reminds me of William Regal, able to do serious or comedy both excellently and utterly believable.
AEW pre show is free on ITV4 12am-1:15am
How much is it for the ppv tonight.Quote:

Only seen bits so far but looks a good start. Looks a lot less sanitised and corporate than WWE.Quote:

Need to watch it at some point.
Jon Moxley vs Juice Robinson on the njpw show was very good. He looks like a new man away from wwe.
Finally watched Double or Nothing.
That was impressive. Enjoyed every match on the ppv.
Cody is a star. :top marks
Raw and Smackdown this week were awful. Where do they go from here?
Really no idea, can only see an improvement when Vince hands over to HHH, but we all know that's unlikely to happen any time soon. It's a shame as they have so much talent on the roster.Quote:

Very sad.
New TV deal in the UK confirmed. WWE moving to BT Sport from January.
Eric Bishcoff and Paul Heyman now in charge of Raw and Smackdown, wonder how much freedom Vince will give them. Also wonder why HHH didn't get one of these jobs?
Don't know. Smackdown attendance this week was apparently under 2,000. Raw around 3,500.Quote:

Did anyone read up on Fyter Fest at the weekend? Seems cody took an unprotected headshot with a steel chair from the man formerly known as Tye Dillinger. Jon Moxley (FKA Dean Ambrose) beat bad boy Joey Janela in an unsanctioned match.
Raw in Glasgow later this year has been changted to a house show.
Thank **** i didn't buy a ticket.
I did! Got a refund on the way!Quote:

All in has been really good, some mental crazy spots!!!
Big talk of Punk coming bsck. Triple H just said on SSN that the door is open.
Just watched first AEW show on ITV2, WWE will need something along the lines of Punk to compete. It was an outstanding show. Given WWE big news seems to be hogan vs flair in Saudi its not looking great for them.
Well known UFC star debuted tonight.
Thought Smackdown was very good, thought valzquez debut was a bit flat, but the small bits I've seen of him wrestling in Mexico he's very good.Quote:

I liked a lot of the Shane Vs Owens match, and even though most people liked Kofi as champion I'm glad to see him lose it, unpopular opinion but for me he's a mid carder at best.
Tyson Fury getting to speak on Raw tonight.
WTF is going on??
Didn't see HIAC, but I see that the fans were not happy with the booking of the main event.
Chants of AEW, we want a refund, this is BS at the end, somehow Seth got DQ'ed in a Hell in the Cell match...
They somehow managed to make the Fiend look **** at the end and ensure Seth will get booed out the building tonight.
Praise them for a good show on Friday and they manage to **** it by Sunday 🙄
Watched the highlights of Seth vs Bray, maximum cringe with the booing and chants.
Raw should be good this evening.Quote:
