Rumored WM30 Card

[Silkk]

Ok. I'm sorry breh Sir, can you please explain to me how two midcarders deserve a main event over a top guy? I wont to hear your rationale You are an outstanding poster I apoligize for my earlier insults Also, if you can kindly explain your rationale for this being a weak card, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and good day.

At some point the midcard has to be elevated to main event status, batista hasnt been seen in 4 years. Rumble win + WM win is the easiest/most effective way to accomplish that(See Batista). Otherwise your stuck bringing in part timers every jan-april taking away spots that should be for the wrestlers on the full time active roster. Batista should definitely be on the card, but for him to come back after a 4 year layoff and be headlining WM30 is ridiculous.

Lol@Jordan smilies and glee for Cripple H ruining WM...and some idiots are actually for that novice card too. Raw will probably be better.

And what would your card be? Everything except the tista/orton match looks solid

The current midcard is pure trash. Kofi, Miz, Dolph, etc don't have it. Reigns and Big E still can't work a solid 10 min solo but they should get thrust into the main event of Mania? Punk and Bryan are not draws in terms of PPV buys. Like I said, Batista is a name/proven draw and the huge ratings this week justifies it.

There was no glee in my Jordan smilie usage. More in the ridiculousness of its possibility/likelihood. Sheamus is trash and should be buried to Kofi level of cartoonish child fan pandering.

Out of all the options they have this card is the definition of meh

Buyrate arguments will soon become null, but do you really think Batista is gonna bring in all that many viewers who wouldnt normally buy the Rumble anyway? Brock is far more of a draw than Tista and he didnt really improve buyrates all that much. Hyped TV returns are one thing and PPV buys are another.

There are multiple better cards
Bryan vs Cena 2
Lesnar vs Taker
Punk vs Cripple H


Bryan vs Lesnar for the title
Punk vs Cripple H
Taker vs Cena

Not that hard to do common sense booking....EVERYONE on the Net convinced themselves Taker vs Cena DIDN'T Happen last year because Rock was there. WELL...WELL...WELL....no Rock, still Cena is not facing Taker..but he said that he doesn't want to face Taker like last year. He's political...of course he didn't want to job at Mania XXX..Cena actually believes his own hype of being the hhardest working wrestler. .probably thinks he deserves to look good this year no matter what even though it will lead to lesser buyers. So I'm not surprised he is in some more lame shyt.

All depends on booking. Brock was killed first match back. He will have some effect on the rumble buyrate. If that momentum carries into mania remains to be seen. But its a much less of a risk then having Reigns in that position

For the record, I really like Lesnar/Taker, and don't mind Punk/Trips (I guess), but the rest is mediocre at best. How you gonna put a sorry ass wrestler like Sheamus with Daniel Bryan? Gonna throw a fade route to Sheamus on a guy like Bryan? Smarks are gonna be wearing their hating hats early.

Well theres two ways you can look at that. In terms of buys, its much less of a risk than having Reigns there. But, in terms of actual booking, especially long term, is it less of a risk to prop up Tista when they could use it to potentially elevate Reigns on a big stage? If they are trying to push Reigns (which Im not as enthusiastic about as others, but thats besides the point), then they need to do it at one of the 4 major PPVs, whether it is risky or not, not at a bullshyt ass PPV that no one is gonna see outside of people who are regular viewers anyway.

They will probably have Reigns win an Elimination Chamber, which isnt terrible, but if they wait and push him on a shyttier PPV then they dropped the ball.

Zero interest in Taker-Lesnar.

Isn't your whole MO about seeing Cena stepping away from the main event? I actually like the idea of him working with Wyatt. The buildup will be good if done right. Much more interesting then sequels or Cena/Taker.

Reigns will be in the top position next year or 2016. No need to rush. Have we forgot Orton in 04? And he was in a much better position than Reigns now

Batista is a proven draw and Punk & Bryan aren't? Where are you getting that from?
