Dave Meltzer's WrestleMania Diary: Things Are Changing 2016

[Honga Ciganesta]

For Meltzer stans like myself Let's follow the great man over the weekend

There may even be SCOOPZ and NEWZ

*There is WWE information listing HHH vs. Roman Reigns now as a no DQ match, which it was never pushed as prior to today.

*There are WrestleMania ads all over the major highways and downtown here, usually a photo of a WWE star, the ones I’ve seen the most are Undertaker, Shane McMahon, John Cena, HHH, Roman Reigns and Sasha Banks. Officials at AT&T Stadium have noted that there has been far more local promotion done for WrestleMania then for the Super Bowl when the stadium hosted it a few years ago.

*Things already started with Jim Cornette doing a live talk show in Fort Worth. He did his usual bits, talking about how much he hated Vince Russo, but other names on his list included Dixie Carter, Shawn Michaels, and, to an extent, John Laurinaitis.

*WaleMania is tonight (Thursday) in Dallas which is now an annual event as tickets sold out immediately. Last year a ton of wrestlers came with the exception of WWE talent as I think they aren’t supposed to be at anyone else’s shows.

*If Finn Balor loses the NXT title Friday night to Samoa Joe at TakeOver, that means the Balor Club is headed to the main roster. Either way, Karl Anderson & Doc Gallows are debuting imminently and are in Dallas already.

Virgil's face, so much struggle in it.

Virgil HOF 2017 campaign needs to kickoff... just for him to hold out for more money before going out through the curtain to accept his soon-to-be-pawned ring

I think that means that match is closing the show. La Nariz doesn't want another main event like WM 18 and 25


edit: now is 32, every 7 years he puts himself in a main event that can't follow a bigger match before

Making this a Meltzer catch all until Dave... actually does something this weekend.

The mullet

Triple D da gawd

 

[The Rainmaker]

He's not going to Mania. He's coming back to the Meltzer McMansion tomorrow. That's weird.

 

[Buggsy Mogues]

If it's No DQ that confirms maximum fukkery

 

[Jmare007]

He's not going to Mania. He's coming back to the Meltzer McMansion tomorrow. That's weird.

He's been doing that for years, he says he prefers reviewing the show from home because he can have a more fair assessment that way than being there live. Last year was an exception because WM was very close to his home so he kinda didn't have an excuse to reject WWE's invitation again (I think he's invited every year, he's also been invited to the Performance Center but he hasn't made to time to go yet).

He's not going to Mania. He's coming back to the Meltzer McMansion tomorrow. That's weird.

Probably wants to have the recap and stuff ready, can't be out there partying with marks and stooges
