So who's ready for the **** storm if roman goes over taker


Damn Dunn will have a hella of a problem editing out the boos

Anyone hitching about Roman going over Taker needs to direct their complaints at Taker! He only loses to people he wants to out over. If he loses to Roman its because he is passing a torch of sorts.

Personally, I don't think Roman needs that kind of rub as it would hurt his popularity more than help it. Strowman, on the other hand, would skyrocket from a win over The Undertaker!

Goldberg holding onto the title during the F5 made my morning.

Braun vs. Undertaker at least makes sense.

Reigns/Taker has quite possibly the flimsiest reason to feud I've ever seen.

It's all about Vince. He'll be whacking off backstage while watching it.

 

[X Knight]

maybe it will be a triple threat match between Taker, Reigns, and Braun??

when was the last time Taker was in a triple threat match?

 

[X Knight]

I can't understand understand how anyone can be enjoying this Goldberg thing. He literally can't perform in the ring.

Taker's entrance at Wrestlemania will last longer than Goldberg's championship match with Brock.

I would agree with you, if this was anyone else but the Undertaker. Basically when he's involved, even the most abstract storyline makes sense.

I am actually looking forward to this program, because the nuclear heat Roman will get, and the uncertainty (crowd expects Roman has a good chance of going over Taker; Strowman would not cause as much tension); this is a storyline that cannot be written or engineered, it's just going to happen organically.

WOW, they made Braun look like a punk in that segment. He's supposed to be a monster, he's been constantly asking for "competition," and when Undertaker comes out, he's just backs down like a coward.

But of course Super-Roman doesn't back down. Ugh, you will never learn will you WWE.

See, I didn't get that. My feeling on that segment was the two monsters look each other in the eye. Braun reaches an understanding that "he didn't come here for me," and backs out of the ring, respectfully because for a monster like Braun, he might see Undertaker as his god or something.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Are they going to announce any more Hall of Famers? They still have yet to induct an Attitude Era guy (unless Kurt Angle counts) or "Foreign guy/guy who spent many years overseas" plus the celebrity inductee (likely Shaq, although it should either be Cindy Lauper or Andy Kaufman) and the Warrior Award.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

Why was it necessary to make Braun look like a p****?

Only thing I can think of is going back to the Wyatt family days. Some kind of demonic respect or something.

That's the thing, who did he come here for? Soon after Braun left, Undertaker was leaving the ring if I'm not wrong. And it was after that that Roman's music hit.

The way to telegraph what you are saying is to have Undertaker call out Reigns after Braun left. THAT would signal he came to get Reigns so Braun backed up.

Now, between yesterdays loss and Monday's backing off he looks like a chicken.

Notice that Roman has, in a subtle way, foreshadowing the Undertaker recently. I remember in Fastlane, he started using "my yard" kind of language in a backstage interview. Then the next night Taker shows up, because he knows what Roman is trying to angle his way towards.

It's a weak plot driver, admittedly, but Taker makes it work, because of his character's inscrutable nature. There is a degree of kayfabe acceptance that Taker has abilities and motivations that normal men cannot truly comprehend; they've used it successfully in the past to sell feuds that wouldn't work with any other wrestler, and they're kind of doing that now.

 

[Darkness Falls]

smh at braun looking like a punk ***** after months of dominating the roster
but oh no "Gotta make roman look strong" he wouldn't back down from taker

classic wwe booking

No, I know that. You missed my point. Undertaker WAS LEAVING after Braun left the ring and stopped because Roman's music hit. If he was here for Roman, he has to call him out- even just stare at the entrance and do the 'Just bring it' motion, while pointing towards the Wrestlemania sign. WHY WAS HE LEAVING?

The Goldberg era is off to a good start. Monday's WWE RAW, featuring new WWE Universal Champion Bill Goldberg and the fallout from WWE Fastlane, drew 3.216 million viewers. This is up from last week's 3.093 million viewers and is the highest rated episode since the RAW after the Royal Rumble.

[DarthSkywalker]

This is very likely actually.

 

[famicommander]

Man, if you've made up your mind, there is nothing me or anybody can do about it.

The number of Reigns matches in history I have enjoyed: 0

The number of Strowman matches in history I have enjoyed: 0

If you asked me to point out what is wrong with WWE's product, I would point to Goldberg and then those two.
