Thing about Mania is that its the type of show where just having a good match doesn't matter. Things need to feel like they're being resolved or established.

Hopefully they can give us reasons to care about the results of these matches in a month.

I don't put as much emphasis on matters being resolved at WM. Ideally, yes, WM is the blowoff show but that's not a written rule. I put more emphasis on the buildup.

WM *is* the place where there should be one or two GREAT matches though that makes the fans happy. And it doesn't have to be the main event that provides that high quality match.

I think they really need to book The Shield match well, make it a gimmick match like HITC or a Street Fight. They been building The Shield for months now and have made them a real force, i`d hate to see some 6 man tag that goes real short and doesn't showcase them.

The Shield match is my personal main event

The sad thing is this is the best roster WWE's had in more than a decade.



It can't be a disappointment when we all know #itsnotsupposedtobegood :cena:

Right on time :snoop:

Am I wrong?

Show me some matches that were announced and we'll talk about it. Til then, nikkas are jumpin' to conclusions. :manny:

All I'm sayin' is show me the matches... not what you GUESS might happen, or what you have convinced yourself is happening... if you gonna bytch about booking decisions, at least let it be over decisions that have actually been MADE. :russ:

Literally the only thing I'm interested in thus far. I can't see anything in the speculative line ups to change my mind on that either.

This is what counts at WM this year to me. I DID want to see Kaitlyn vs AJ Lee and definitely wanted to see Daniel Bryan be ALLOWED on this fukking show for more than two minutes for once just to see how that crowd would flip when he comes out.

I'm expecting Barrett's match with Sheamus to be legit too.

WHO KNOWS what's going with the Shield at this point. Everything else is pretty obvious. I'll really be more concerned with the LIVE Shimmer Cage title match ON PPV the night before really and the Bruno HOF show to a degree.

This is the kind of card you get when pretty much know main event matches months in advance and when you book mid card matches on the fly.

So you mean like pretty much every Mania before this right? That's usually how it goes- the main event matches are a couple months in the making, then the others come together during the weekly build.

*remembers that Mania 17's build was largely done within a month and in fact, Benoit/Angle wasn't announced until the week prior*

Haven't been following TSC brehs. Is this going to be The Rocks last match for awhile or are people expecting him to stick around? Grudge match at next years WM?
