"We have a R-Truth and Carmella skit we need to do!"

[The Heartbreak TWERK]

Cut to Kevin Dunn sweating as he desperately searches for literally anyone in the crowd doing something that could be misconstrued as dancing.

The attendance number is bullshit anyway, why are you wasting everyone's time?

They should have cut everything between the Kofi win and the main event from the show. That crowd was TNA Sting level GASSED from that pointless slog of activity.

unless Thuganomics was in there, that can stay.

It was pretty funny hearing the crowd boo when Alexa said it was time for a break. They just wanted to go back to the hotel already.

[Push R Truth]

Drew/Roman, Angle/Corbin, Joe/Rey, Lashey/Finn all felt out of place and set up poorly.

I would have combined them into: Joe retires Angle quickly, Roman wrestles Lashley to prove he's "Back and better than ever"... Drew, Rey and Corbin are all piled in the Andre where they belong. I struggle with Finn. He should be in the main card as the Demon but there doesn't seem to be a spot for it. Maybe the Demon comes out after Joe/Angle to save Kurt from Joe's post match assault? I dunno I'm just throwing fantasy shit at the wall now

[Final Countdown Jones]

It wasn't quite "Ninja at Times Square on NYE" sad but it was still pretty sad.

If nothing else, between that segment, the B-Team t-shirt spot and the Hogan promo at the beginning, it gave me this amazing image of Alexa spending the three weeks between the announcement of her as host and WrestleMania going into full business mode. She's hiring secretaries and crew members and calling up Hogan and Cena, meeting with Truth and The B-Team, anyone who's not actually booked, trying to make this the best Mania ever. As host's go, you have to admit she was probably the most hands-on of all the ones we've had.

Love combining Joe and Angle. If we can't get Cena as Angle's opponent, Joe's history with Angle makes him the next best thing. The icing on the cake is Angle having one final shot at the United States championship. "Will he retire as the United States champion?"

Lots of potential great moments for Balor if you throw him in the Andre. You lose the cool entrance at night and Lio Rush's awesome reactions, but gain him and Jeff Hardy face to face. The SNL guys can freak out being stuck between Strowman and Balor. A high shrieked "WHAT IS THAT?!" would be appropriate.

I'd probably just keep Roman/Drew and Lashley/Balor in place ultimately, but maybe trim them up a little. You can take 10 minutes off of HHH/Batista easily between the overly indulgent HHH entrance and the match length.


Absolutely everything with Alexa I'd cut entirely. There just doesn't need to be a host of WrestleMania. Period.

They should've just reused footage of people of all races, creeds, genders and what not celebrating together during Kofi's victory celebration.

Stock footage worked in the olden days of cinema, it could work (lol) in modern WWE.
