Who would you rather beat Seth at Mania?

[Jindrak Mark]

Sami's promo on Raw seemed like it was preparing him for something big. And Drew has been on fire lately and right in the mix. I think Seth faces either one or both of them.

In an ideal world I'd have Drew win the title at Mania to finally get that win in front of fans and to reward him for his recent work then he drops it to Sami a couple months later.

If Drew hasn't re-signed and is leaving soon then obviously he's not getting a huge win like that though in which case I'd just have Sami win at Mania.

[UN PLOMBIER NIGHTMARE #blm]

Nearly impossible to pick so I might not pick one. I really want Sami to win a world title but Drew is having the run of his career yet Seth needs something huge to make up for playing second fiddle to all of this. Priest should look up the Money In The Bank manual before he gets anywhere near the title, I think he has forgotten how it works.

If Drew has signed a new contract? Him. Afterwards, then set up the Sami match at Summerslam.
If Drew hasn't signed a new contract? Sami Zayn. Instant win.

I want Sami to have his moment of the large crowd singing his theme as the confetti falls, but damn is Douche McIntyre something else.

I’d love it to be Sami but douche Drew has been so good lately, I wouldn’t mind if it’s him. I’d also take a triple threat, that way Seth can take breaks during the match if he needs to.

[bearned]

They have done a great job of making it look like even more of a nothing title held by losers….so whoever wins it…good luck.

[tirtefaa]

If Roman does indeed lose his title(s), I'm starting to think it might be a good idea for Seth to at least retain at Mania, since anyone who wins is going to be overshadowed by whoever beats Roman.

That said, I would like Drew to be the person to beat Seth. The way I'd do it is by having Seth retain at Mania when Punk (who is a guest commentator during the match) causes a distraction or Drew is simply distracted by Punk, loses, but then wins at the next event.

I think Drew just so he gets that Mania title win with a crowd, Sami can beat him at Summerslam

[Lizuka #BLM]

I think I'd go with Sami with him losing it to Drew later. Gives a big happy moment, Sami is the type that doesn't need a long reign, and they're probably eventually going to want to transition to Punk / Drew for the belt so might as well wait to give it to Drew to begin with instead of having him aimless with it for awhile to get there.

Not sure I'd want him to win it, but seeing from the press conference that Cody vs Roman is happening... I could see Seth vs Rock... and maybe Rock being WHC!

Drew.

Sami can then chase Drew.

[papagiorgio]

Take the belt off of Seth before WrestleMania with a Priest cash in thanks to Roman and/or the Rock. Have Seth's only match at Mania be a Night 1 main event of Seth & Cody vs. Rock & Roman. Priest successfully defends against Balor at Mania. I guess you could add Drew or Sami to the match as well.

That title is dead. They let Roman say the quite part out loud. Seth should just Nikki Cross it.

If they insist on trying to make fetch happen, then Seth kind of needs to retain that belt.

or, they should put the belt on Hulk Hogan

Let me first start off by saying I feel he should've lost the belt months ago to Shinsuke back when he first turned. 

That said, honestly I feel that in order to save the title from truly being a "loser's bracket" belt, they need to have him do what Roman fails to do during the same event. Let him lose it at Backlash or even the next night on Raw for all I care, but if they let anyone else have this moment to prove that Seth's "a loser" just like Roman kept painting him, it won't put that huge spotlight on Roman the way it should since both big champions would have lost everything in one weekend.

I'm going Drew, long as he's not on the outs by the end of April.

I love the idea of the "now broken dream of the fan attended Mania title win". He's injured Punk (emphasized in kayfabe) to get there, he'll be facing an injured Rollins to get there. When he finally wins, he'll hold that title high, but at what cost?

I think the long game with Sami may be a good idea. They seem to be doing this a lot with their babyfaces. Regardless of if Drew or Damien is the Champ by August, Sami getting a much deserved championship-winning pop would be awesome.

(Technically, I'd be okay with Sami winning at Mania if Drew is on his way out. I'm more a fan of a desperate Drew taking the low road to finally accomplish what he wanted. If it's short-lived, so be it, perhaps Sami/Damien at Summerslam could be the pivot if Drew eventually goes All Elite.)

[4real]

If Drew had won the belt earlier than I would have had Sami beat him at Mania.

But right now it’s Drew for me. Maybe then dropping to Sami at Summerslam.

If they're taking it off Seth (and probably will), and if they can't get Drew to re-sign, it might be not a bad move to have Drew challenge and then have Priest make the run-in with the briefcase just as Drew is about to get the pin.

Priest needs to fish or cut bait with the briefcase soon; the move would either cement JD as tweeners leaning babyface or as outheeling a heel Drew who's going into Ambrose territory as it stands. Priest pulling it off here would be an entertaining way to allow Drew to have an extinction burst, where he just tramples everyone until one of the new champions has to run him out of WWE.

Having Drew win the belt then be immediately cashed in on would be kind of incredible for his character, I say do it.
