Damn, did Haitch legit break Roman Reigns' nose?

 

[NDX]

Breaks Reigns nose. Follows it up with a ****** looking finisher. Dagnabbit.

 

[SpideyVille]

Damn, did Haitch legit break Roman Reigns' nose?

I think so, but good on him to keep going and build heat.

Hopefully this wasn't planned though, to mimic Cena vs Rollins.

Haitch didn't build heat. He built "yes" chants and cheers. It's so sad for the WWE when the obvious heel gets cheered.

 

[SuperBatman]

Anybody was going to get cheered against Roman reigns they shouldn't turned ROman heel when they had the chance.

 

[TX85]

Shane is back??? Finally!

 

[The Apocalypse]

Few questions to pose after hearing the reaction Trips got and probably will get the upcoming weeks.

1) Do they let Haitch retain and just turn Roman the following night. Dean could beat Brock and that along with the crowd reaction is enough of catalysts to go ahead with it.

2) Roman beats Triple H. The Rock comes down to celebrate with Regins. Assuming people will not be happy about him winning, he turns heel by attacking his cousin.

3) They just let Taker and Shane main event.

 

[TX85]

Taker and Shane? Shane returned as a heel and is facing Taker at WM??

 

[The Apocalypse]

Taker and Shane? Shane returned as a heel and is facing Taker at WM??

No. Vince just put them in a match together. If Shane wins he will "control" the company.

 

[SuperBatman]

U know I guarantee you if ROllins was still around and it was him going up against HHH like It was orginally planned cause they were kinda hinting at it before he got hurt. HHH would be getting the booes over Rollins.

 

[SuperBatman]

Taker and Shane? Shane returned as a heel and is facing Taker at WM??

No I actually don't know all the Details but Shane returned tonight when VINCE was presenting Stephanie with this award and confronted VInce McMahon telling him that Vince promised him something and he wants control of the company. VInce agreed if he could only win One match at Wrestlemania against the UT in a Hell in a Cell. Maybe somebody that saw the whole thing could explain it better.

 

[Wheels]

This year's main event is like the WreatleMania 22 situation on repeat. Except Trips is trying way harder to get Reigns over than he did Cena.

 

[TX85]

Interesting

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

Roman's winning the main event. They can cover up and mute boos and cut away from thumbs down easy as pie. It'd be worse if Triple H wins, at least Roman is a real Superstar at this point. WWE has been through some bad years with crap champions before and this is just another case of that.

Hopefully Shane's GMing (?) Raw will be a creative turnaround, finally an admission that the product isn't over with the fans and changes (booking and creative) are coming. But, we are all wise to WWE's act and getting our hopes up for anything is not worth the frustration when they don't come true.

Put your love into another show, guys, WWE just isn't worth it now.

 

[SuperBatman]

whatever HHH does nothing is going to work. Nobody and I mean Nobody would be able to get Reigns over as a face. Well maybe except if he was facing somebody like the Miz because everybody hates him but still to get him over as a Face of the company is going to be next to impossible. Have him win the title and when Dean AMbrose or the ROck comes out to celebrate turn him full heel and people could then boo him all they want.

 

[TX85]

Reigns has to turn by Summerslam!

 

[Dr. Evil]

Still thinking she will be the next Divas Champion:

And my reason for this (besides her talent) is because I don't think the WWE wants to give another singles title to any black wrestlers until Apollo Crews comes up. BTW, I think Crews will be the one who takes the NXT Title off Balor the next time they face each other.

I get the feeling what Shane does as GM will ride on what reception Reigns gets at Wrestlemania. If he comes out to massive boos and his win is received poorly, they may finally say "Ok, our way isn't working" and use the Shane story as an excuse to make major changes.

 

[TX85]

So Shane is now GM and fighting to control all of wwe or is he fighting to become gm? Because there's no way he beats Taker.

 

[Lead Cenobite]

He controls Raw if he beats the Undertaker. Right now, he's not GM but he did say he's higher in the pecking order than Stephanie.

 

[TX85]

I hope Shane sticks around for a couple of months even when he loses at WM and wrestles a match or two more. He was always my favorite McMahon to see and enjoyed his matches.

Kurt Angle vs Shane at King of the Ring 2001 is still a classic and his matches with Steve Blackman and X-Pac are underrated!

Idk about that it's kinda odd that taker is like Vince lackey in this storyline cause it like the fans would love to see Shane win and take over raw. In this way taker is playing heel.

I actually thought what Triple H did with Cena was smart, he talked down to him like a bum, using the truth that at the time Cena was not a particularly good performer, and Cena took the Eminem 8 Mile final rap battle approach by owning his shortcomings. It was Rocky Balboa vs Apollo Creed stuff and the fact Cena beat Triple H with a wrestling move countering the Pedigree into the STF was a neat pay off.

I don't know what he did with Reigns tonight but if it was talk highly of him and then beat the snot out of him I don't think that will work. I see a mention of Flair maybe breaking his nose, so let me guess Triple H w/Flair and Reigns w/Dwayne at Mania? *shakes head*

I don't see Flair at the side of Triple H at Mania. He'll be at his daughters side, no doubt about that. He's been very busy managing his daughter Charlotte, that putting him on Triple H's side at Mania would be "shoehorning him" into a story that doesn't need him.

No, Flair was not involved at all...he's seconding his daughter right now, nowhere near the Reigns/Trips storyline.

Trips interrupted the main event, coming down to ringside and confronting Reigns. Reigns, worn down from his match with Sheamus, fights him off for a while, but Trips eventually gets the advantage and absolutely destroys him, legit breaking his nose in the process. The crowd loved it, booing Reigns out of the building and cheering Triple H like a conquering hero.
