Would you even watch a Wrestlemania with ZERO Part-Timers?

[TRIPLE M]

Yes
If they did the following this year

Lasley vs Mcentyre
Roman vs Big E
Hurt Business vs Dirty Dawgs or Street Profits to unify the tag belts
Rhea Ripley vs Asuka
Sasha vs Bianca
tag team money in the bank ladder match
Matt Riddle vs Bryan
Walter vs Caesaro
Women’s battle royal
Andre the Giant battle royal
that’s a card to watch

Yes. The problem is Vince thinks no one would watch, you can't keep relying on these part timers to carry the company. Taker is done, Edge might not even make it out of Mania without another injury, Goldberg ain't getting any younger, Brock isn't getting any younger. As great as the Lashley win is he's also 44 years old. They need to start seriously building new stars, Vince needs to step down or they sell the company to NBC.

 

[YakSpiller]

Wrestlemania needs Roman Reigns tho. Without him last year, we had the lowest attended Wrestlemania of all time.

 

[Womb Raider]

yeah they need a good card tho

I'm fine with gimmick matches but give me solid performers and logical booking too. I don't think WWE is capable of pulling off all three.

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

Yes
If they did the following this year

Lashley vs McIntyre
Roman Reigns vs Big E
Hurt Business vs Dirty Dawgs or Street Profits to unify the tag belts
Rhea Ripley vs Asuka
Sasha vs Bianca
tag team money in the bank ladder match
Matt Riddle vs Bryan
Walter vs Caesaro
Women’s battle royal
Andre the Giant battle royal
that’s a card to watch

Damn breh, that really is a hardcore watchers nice mania.

Add Karrion Kross vs Finn vs Cole for NXT title and im in

 

[NOSaintsFan02]

Yes. The brand sells itself at this point.

The "part timers" the WWE loves is just to aim for record breaking numbers by luring in casuals.

It's like the Super Bowl or NBA Finals. The games will sell out and people will tune in no matter what. But of course the leagues would want Brady or LeBron in it to get even more eyes tuned in.

 

[Playaz Eyez]

With the proper build, you can 100% make that happen

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Yes. if the show is built around Roman. Lashley and Sasha then why not?

 

[AJtheOne]

Well we watch ppvs all year without part timers for the most part anywaysi don't want to see a bunch of old heads who can't wrestle anymore.

Past is the past.

If they can still go, it's a different story. But even then, it's foul how some wrestlers work all year just to get left off the card for a wrestler.

 

[RammerJammer]

Yes. It's WRESTLEMANIA, just like the Super Bowl, it sells it's self regardless of who's competing.

 

[R=G]

Lashley isn't a problem because he doesn't get injured and in wrestling, your 40s are different than sports. You a high flyer? Might be a problem.

 

[R=G]

Yes. It's WRESTLEMANIA, just like the Super Bowl, it sells it's self regardless of who's competing.

Nope..they still lying about attendance numbers. They always need a hook.

He’s still 44 and injuries happen.

 

[Reality Check]

Surprised it took this long to bring up these points. They need better, more consistent builds that aren't interrupted by what Vince is thinking that minute.

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Lashley isn't a problem because he doesn't get injured and in wrestling, your 40s are different than sports. You a high flyer? Might be a problem.

He’s in his 40s, looks great, and is also wrestling full time. He’s basically a unicorn
