Here's a challenge to people who aren't happy with the WrestleMania main event and who they're pushing: Put your money where your mouths are and buy the ROH internet pay-per-view next month. Watch another show, do something. Find an alternative, don't just bitch. A lot of you guys do that, but I cannot even begin to count the amount of people who watch WWE, hate it, but don't even give any other company a shot because "it's not WWE." Seriously y'all. I'm dyin' for some of y'all to post in the New Japan thread or to really participate in some Lucha Underground discussion, to point out some specific examples. If you try those and legit don't like them, then that's another thing. But come on, man. One of the best things I've done recently was watch other wrestling (no, TNA doesn't count). It may be the corniest shit ever, but imagine my delight at how I was RIGHT when I guessed that a monster heel who is the vague personification of death can't seem to beat a guy with a Phoenix gimmick. I never realized how much I missed the consistency with ridiculous wrestling logic, until I made it a habit to watch companies that at least seemed to give a shit and not outright mock and degrade the intelligence of the same people they're trying to get money from... And really, watching wrestling I can unironically enjoy makes watching other forms of wrestling that much easier. Being able to sit through an entire LU show, mostly enjoy it or mark out over New Japan stuff really softens the blow when Vince McMahon decides to smear his feces all over the network and insist everyone like it. Notice I haven't been writing multiple paragraphs about WWE's bullshit...?

I dislike polls like that because I would answer yes. it would be a lie to say I didn't enjoy it but I was also disappointed in so many non finishes that felt like they were waiting for a PPV to have the actual match.

They need to retire this name and put it next to Capital Punishment, Over the Limit and the rest of the one note, suck shows. Also, no more shows for you Memphis. But there were three Over the Limit shows

Change all the posts to say Fatal 4-Way with your mod powers.

Someone on Reddit mentioned that Bryan technically had Reigns pinned when they were both down. I wonder if they did it on purpose to give themselves an out if fans still reject Reigns.

Bryan lost as clean as any main event level face in WWE ever will. He then put over Roman in the ring for all to see, there is no way they can put Bryan in that match and not have him come across as anything other than a Super Douche Heel. Bryan lost. He will not be in the main event of Wrestlemania. That fight is over.

what an awful, awful PPV.
sure Tyson looked cute. And Cody looked hot as hell, but meh.
Memphis should be reserved for the crowd in a random Raw in June. Not the PPV before Wrestlemania. Even Sting didn't get the ovation he deserved. Biggest pop went to Undertaker from what I could tell and it wasn't even him.
Just a dead feeling show all around. It actually lowered my interest in WM. I'll still watch but, as said, meh.
Maybe stop doing NXT specials b/c now I have something superior to compare this to.

Did I miss hear this morning but I swear at the end of the PPV Lawler said "And it may happen at WM"
Was we talking about Roman and Brock or Sting and HHH?
I'll have to go back and listen but wanted to see if anyone else caught that
edit- nevermind he was talking about Bray and Taker
