I’m liking the direction it’s going. Looking back I feel like the Usos had to lose at mania, and Roman had to win to justify Roman getting upset. KO and Jimmy played their parts perfectly tonight. I think the Usos turn face next week and challenge Roman/Solo for the tag tiles at MITB. I think he’d have to drop the titles soon after. Summerslam would make sense but I feel as though they will stretch it to Mania

I still think they could have done Roman defends Universal on Night 1 of WM, and wins due to bullshit.
Then he defends WWE Title on Night 2 against Cody, we get the same bullshit, but then Sami/KO come out like they did, and what should have been the ending IS the ending with Cody winning.
Roman losing one belt, but still holding on to the one that he holds the record for still gives the plot momentum.
Yeah he lost, but he won when it mattered. And hell he can spin it that he only lost b/c The Usos didn't do their jobs right. So they lost on both nights in his eyes.
The you can do the whole "prove yourself and bring the gold back to the Bloodline" thing, which they would still fail at.
And THEN we come to where we are now, which I'm also enjoying. The only thing dragging it down is Roman's reign of misery with both titles.

This storyline isn't going to gain any more momentum until they finally bring back Manu.

Glad that you (and a lot of others) are still into it but it’s an instant skip for me at this point. They had the perfect crescendo from the Runble to wrestlemania and blew it both times because of some arbitrary record that absolutely no one but HHH cares about.

I also like the Bloodline storyline and interested in seeing how things turn out today at the PLE, I think the Usos will accidentally (or on purpose) cost Roman the tag belts.
The "Celebration" next week will probably have Roman/Solo beating the hell out of the Usos.

Once again there is tension between The Usos and Reigns, for like, the 4565457653rd time. Maybe THIS is when Jey finally breaks away, but he'll probably due what he usually does and stays Romans bitch.

Nothing that they have done since Mania has changed my opinion that Roman should have lost there.
Quite the reverse, so much would make more s sense if Cody had won.

What are the betting odds that Jimmy Uso attacks Sami and Owens tonight allowing Roman and Solo to win the tag titles?

It’s definitely picking up steam again with Roman back and the Usos and Roman/Solo on opposing sides. A big tag match between the sides would be fun but I’m not sure if they’ll go that route yet.

I mean he would have no right to get mad at the Usos for losing the tag belts. Him winning and them losing leads to Roman thinking he’s better than them which will lead to his downfall |

Nah, I don’t even like Cody Rhodes but this has gone on too long.
Usos are beyond redeemable at this point and really if Jimmy was going to turn it should have happened like six month.
I don’t care about Samoa Schmo and f*** Jimmy Uso.
The secondary world title just makes everyone look like a bitch on
Top of it.

Everything you described could still happen if both the Usos and Roman lost at 'mania. |

Roman gets annoyed at the Usos, the Usos would respond with “How about you and Cody?” you’d begin to build some tension on both ends because they are hungrier and desperate to get belts back and eventually that’ll lead to a big explosion. It’d literally be a heel being a hypocrite which has been done a gajillion times in wrestling history. |

They could have done it either way, neither is inherently better than the other and all involved parties seem as over as ever. |

This feels like one of those threads that occasionally pops up in the off-topic board where someone says "dude, The Simpsons is getting good again, for realsies!". It may be true, it probably isn't, but I've long since ceased caring.
