They fired Shane and Vince went "FINE I"LL DO IT"
I'm just amazed his family hasn't stepped up and been like "um yeah, maybe NOT"... I mean, there has to be a breaking point, right?

So we're back to wheeling out the McMahons to try and fend off the audience apathy caused by McMahon booking? Alrighty then. Shane's gone, Hunter may never be cleared to wrestle again, they're spending a lot of money to distance Steph from her on screen role so it's either this or Linda vs Rhonda.

Pat said on his show that he started keto this week, and the only other times that's happened pretty much was before the Cole match and before War Games, so I immediately assumed he was gonna get back in the ring soon. No way it would be against Vince though.. maybe it's Pat vs Theory?

Zelina and Carmella vs. Aurora and Murphy, book it.

Fatal Four way with the highly anticipated debut of the Flying Bart Simpson Skull CGI. Fatal five way with Randy Orton shit snake. SIX PACK CHALLENGE with Bianca's lips and braid CGI.

The entire Mania Cards feel like a train wreck, is the thing. A two night train wreck. ? Not at all. They look solid as hell so far, especially if we end up with Edge-Styles and Rollins-Cody too. every year theres a whinge on the IWC this Mania sucks - and (other than the length of time which is a valid criticism ) it generally turns out to be well received

You ain't about to tell me an event with Roman/Brock again being billed as "The greatest Mania Match EVER", Charlotte/Ronda, Logan Paul, Johnny Knoxville, and now potentially Pat McAfee vs Vince McMahon isn't a trainwreck on paper Like glad you don't think so, this shit looks god awful to me right now. Two potential matches ain't saving two nights. The billing is dumb like the Greatest Match Ever with Edge/Orton but that turned out to be an awesome match and Roman-Brock should be a spectacle and well-worked. Definitely not a disaster. Charlotte/Ronda had a legit 4-4.5 star match at Survivor Series the first time they met and Ronda seems to be getting better in the ring as her comeback continues on, and they’re giving her the TV and house show reps needed to get her back to that 2019 level. Definitely not a disaster. McAfee vs. Vince would be a trainwreck but one I would want to see haha Logan Paul teaming with Miz against the Mysterios is a perfect celeb undercard Mania match and should be solid. Not sure Knoxville is going to do a 1 on 1 vs. Zayn, I’m guessing it’ll be something else. And I wasn’t saying those two potential matches are the only good things on the show. But they would both be highly anticipated and with great workers if they do Edge-Styles and Rollins-Cody. There’s also stil a chance of Orton-Riddle and KO-Austin. Plus Bianca-Becky could be a match of the year type similar to Bianca’s last Mania match.

This will end up being Theory's storyline.
Vince will likely take a bump of some kind, but I dont see him doing an actual match.
If Pat gets involved in a match, I wonder if that means he'll leave SD commentary/WWE afterwards?

And given that Vince is, well, Vince, who is going to tell him that it's a really bad idea and more importantly, who will say no to him that Vince will actually listen to?

…Is this gonna be done by CGI or something? Cinematic match, calling it. Voting for the first ever holographic match.

As long as his head is protected I’m imagining he’ll be okay. He’s by most reports still in great shape. Mae Young was the same age when she was powerbombed off the stage by the Dudleys, believe it or not.

His fricking SON is too old to wrestle a match. This sounds scary but knowing Vince he’s crazy enough to do it Austin Theory is only 24.

When I first read this, I thought, "WTF?! Why?" But after thinking about it for a little while, I think I know where they are going with this: it's all about Vince being kicked in the nuts. It sounds silly, I know (but so does the entire match) but I think this is all about Vince recreating his own most famous Wrestlemania moment, that being when Linda McMahon rose from that wheel chair and kicked him in the nuts. The bell will ring, Pat will kick Vince low and pin him, saving Vince from having to take any bumps or get too physical. And for years to come, they will show the two testicle kicks back to back in Wrestlemania Moment videp packages. Why use Pat McAfee for this? Because he literally used to be a punter in the NFL. It may even get some mainstream press.

Granted, I honestly haven't seen any of those segments so I don't know if Theory is supposed to be Vince's new chosen boy or what, but I'm assuming Vince could bring Theory in to fight on his behalf.

That's what was being reported, but he's lost a lot of matches during this run.
