Braun is the perfect replacement. Could be a big moment for him too. Not too sure that’s a good idea right now lol unless he does it as a heel

Good.
More employees in general need to do what Roman did.

Braun is the perfect replacement. Could be a big moment for him too. That is a... pretty genuinely awful idea right now. I don't know how on earth they could give the belt to Braun after what he's been saying lately and not just piss everybody off. The Indy wrestler tweets? That’s a nothing story in the big picture. I doubt most of the higher ups have any idea those tweets were even made. Ditto the fans.

Yea, for all that you just do a show after where Goldberg losses the title to someone else if you can't fit him in Mania Give Fiend his rematch, match with Cena to get number 17 (They want that for a live crowd tho), hell give it back to Kofi

I'd build Mania like they build boxing. Give them three months of build. Use historic clips for shows. Dont do Mania at the Performance Center I think that could have been an option but because Wrestling is a weekly show it isn't easy to pull off The "right decision" was to do Mania now. You couldn't postpone Mania without a concrete date to set itself on especially when you are building shows off of this They can stop now after this since storylines will be wrapped up The real issue is that they can't just put the title on Roman right now. Even if they tape the match and there's no issue at the moment, whoever they put the Universal title is going to be carrying Smackdown through whatever the next few months entails. A guy with a weakened immune system is going to be out of action for months. Likely longer than the actual leukemia did to him.

"perfect" before his stupid comments The fact he had no Mania match shows he was in the shit house Don’t think the comments were that big of a deal internally. Could be he was held back in case such a scenario with Reigns unfolded.

The corona tweets Hmm maybe I missed those. I thought his controversial tweets were the ones in response to Evil Uno about supporting Indy wrestlers.

Another idea is to give Roman's shot to Daniel Bryan and give Bryan's IC shot to Gulak. Just would love to see the reaction if Goldberg squashes Bryan.

The SmackDown tag titles don't mean a goddamn thing anyway and Kofi would be a good, safe choice to go in, have a quick match to get the belt off Goldberg, and then turn around and transition it back to Roman or the Fiend because either would be a fresh match for him.

Yea, at this point you might as well put it back on the Fiend and build to a match between them at some point later in the year Roman is basically out for the foreseeable future as long as this virus is a threat which is basically the real story here

Braun, Bryan, Kofi, Keith Lee. Those are the options I’d be looking at if you want a face champion.

Yea, Kofi is still way over for when you get the crowds back and has the momentum necessary to carry the show again and this time he really doesn't have to hold the belt long I actually would have considered Corbin here if he didn't have the match with Elias. Have him sneak a title win where the fans "can't ruin it" is perfect for his character and then you have him drop it the first live show of the year when they get back

This is definitely for the better though, yeah, not really sure how they get out of this one now. Um... Miz & Morrison vs. Usos and then Goldberg vs. Kofi? Goldberg vs Big E Big E doesn't care if he wins or loses, he gets to face Goldberg.

Absolutely 100% right in his decision; my only question would be why now, why not before the contract signing?
