Tonight, Roman will emasculate the entire League of Nations, the Social Outcasts, and the Wyatt Family so that the authority that doesn't want him to have the title will give him another title shot opportunity.

Camera work was very weird at points last night. Due to issues we missed ADR-Kalisto last night. Apparently that was a blessing. I love the Styles-KO-Sami arc, thought it was beautiful.

I still can't believe that the main even of WM32 is gonna be HHH vs. Roman Reigns

I guess it's not enough to be banging Steph on the reg and on deck to inherit control of the company once Vince kicks the bucket. No, he has to put the belt on himself, too.

HHH has officially surpassed Hulk Hogan for biggest ego in wrestling history. At least Hogan's was warranted.

It's the story that had to be told, hopefully it is told more at Fastlane instead, but HHH-Roman is an ok story if on the same card I get Sasha-Charlotte and KO-Sami or KO-Styles or a triple threat

What would you suggest they go with? Brock/Roman 2? 3/4 of the roster that could main event are on their death beds. This made total sense in the story they've been telling ever since D-Bry went down and Seth turned on the Shield

Personally, I think you sell more tickets and merch by having Ambrose and Hunter eliminate Reigns and Hunter eliminate himself then hug Dean. That sets up your triple threat with Seth when he comes back. I would think Ambrose/Reigns at WM would be a pretty big draw.

Your a bit away from Seth returning. You can still tell this story and another when he gets back.

Certainly. That would be a Summerslam/Survivor Series type matchup you could look at down the road. The main thrust of that type of booking would be an all shield main event at this Wrestlemania. It also gets the E away from the over-reliance on part time guys. As it stands now, the answer to everything is bring in the important people from the late 90s early 2000s for Wrestlemania. They don't appear to see the problem with conditioning people to believe the only people that matter are around for a a few events a year.

I agree they use part timers A Lot, but really at Mania is understandable. You use Rock because people know him, etc.

I don't mind the booking. I don't think the plan all along was to put the strap on H, but the roster is depleted to the point where they didn't have a ton of options. They've put themselves into such a bad spot in trying to sell out Jerry World/break the WM record that they weren't going to risk putting the strap on KO/Bray/Ambrose. Plus, the only way to move Rollins back to a babyface is to put the Authority in such a position of power that they no longer need him. That being said, they need to figure out a way to have someone besides Reigns or H win at WM. Otherwise, you close out the show with boos. You have the eyeballs and the interest on that night to get over new talent so do it.

Or just put it on The Rock...
