The tech team is doing a horrible job drowning out the rain of boos the crowd gives Reigns.

[palantri]

there isnt enough tech in the world to drown out the rain of boos the crowd gives Reigns

[stlcardinalsfan]

roman reigns has major facial reconstruction surgery....appears 2 weeks later with absolutely no sign whatsoever of surgery.


not even saving his return until wrestlemania could drown out boos.

Holy crap, can the Undertaker be any more boring!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He looks old and very slow. He should have called it quits years ago. Actually, I guess he is somewhat retired since he only wrestles about once a year.

To be fair to "The Deadman", he's in his what, fifties now? Fans need to realize he's no longer going to look and move like it's 1998 or even 2006. He wrestles only a handful of times a year now. I wished he would've retired some years ago and had his HoF induction but...here we are in 2016. I wish Vince would stop asking him to have a match @ WM. But if Taker himself is the one who keeps wanting to comeback then so be it. I just don't want to see the man get seriously hurt in the ring.

Who's the next WWE Superstar to make the jump............. maybe Bobby Roode from TNA. This was posted last night on Facebook and WWE.com:

As if the sight of Kota Ibushi at NXT TakeOver: Dallas wasn’t enough to get the rumor mill rolling, another highly acclaimed grappler was revealed amid a sea of NXT fans. Former World Champion Bobby Roode was shown watching the live WWE Network event very closely from his seat in the capacity crowd. But why was the veteran competitor at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas?
Just like with Ibushi, WWE.com can only speculate at the moment, but there are immediate thoughts of dream showdowns between Roode and the NXT roster’s elite. Perhaps Roode was just there to watch the hottest show in town. Or maybe he was there to scout potential future opponents. Going by the reaction of the NXT Universe when Roode was shown in attendance, fans were certainly excited by the prospect of the latter possibility.

Triple H vs. Roman Reigns
Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar (with Paul Heyman)
Shane McMahon vs. The Undertaker
Charlotte vs. Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks
Kalisto vs. Ryback
The New Day vs. The League of Nations
The Usos vs. The Dudley Boyz

A pretty weak PPV for any time of the year but for Wrestlemania it looks like total crap to me. Now I haven't watched it in over a year but these match ups can't really be what the fans hoped for Wrestlemania 2016. How does everyone else feel about it?

There are a few more matches then that, but definitely agree that this years WM doesn't have that same draw as it should. I am looking forward to the five matches in bold.

Kalisto vs Ryback
Total Divas vs B.A.D. & Blonde
The Usos vs The Dudley Boys
Triple H vs Roman Reigns
Dean Ambrose vs Brock Lesnar
Shane McMahon vs Undertaker
Charlotte vs Becky Lynch vs Sasha Banks
Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn vs Dolph Ziggler vs Zack Ryder vs The Miz vs Stardust
AJ Styles vs Chris Jericho
Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal
The New Day vs The League of Nations

Ugh, the power company is working up the hill from me and turned off the power for my neighborhood. Hopefully it's fine until the end of WM.
