And over a year and an account later I still feel like if you keep to a single status quo for 52 episodes (or more in this case) of what's supposed to be a continually evolving narrative you're a shitty writer. It’s a sitcom trope. You always get back to 0. Beaver learns a lesson at the end, but next week, he’s gotta learn something new like the previous week didn’t happen. Remember Chris K-something got mocked by WWE for trying to track his storylines. They don’t care. WWE is just George Costzana’s pitch to NBC. GEORGE: Yeah, but nothing happens on the show. You see, it's just like life. You know, you eat, you go shopping, you read.. You eat, you read, You go shopping. RUSSELL: You read? You read on the show? JERRY: Well, I don't know about the reading.. We didn't discuss the reading. RUSSELL: All right, tell me, tell me about the stories. What kind of stories? GEORGE: Oh, no. No stories. RUSSELL: No stories? So, what is it? GEORGE: (Showing an example) What'd you do today? RUSSELL: I got up and came to work. GEORGE: There's a show. That's a show. RUSSELL: (Confused) How is that a show? JERRY: Well, uh, maybe something happens on the way to work. GEORGE: No, no, no. Nothing happens. JERRY: Well, something happens. RUSSELL: Well, why am I watching it? GEORGE: Because it's on TV!!!

Unless you could promise me from now untill Mania 38 we would get the best wrestling show of all time and not just that but the best written show on television with the best most creative stories , the best characters , the most well rounded booking of all time where not only does everyone top to bottom on the roster get something to do and are booked with the strongest care to detail and continuity. Then hell to the f***ing no I do not wanna see Roman hold the title all way to WM38 I do not even want to see him hold it for even half that time. Pretty much. You’d better have a hell of a story in the back pocket to justify a world title reign of a year and a half for a guy who is 20 less appearances away from part-timer Brock Lesnar booking. So did they have a hell of a story in the back pocket? Nah. They had Brock Lesnar with long hair, which I suppose is almost the same thing.

What’s crazy is that at the time I made this thread, they had plenty of time to build someone up for a huge mania 38 win. It could of been Alister Black. He could of won a midcard title in 2021, then turn face, win the rumble and dethrone the 500+ day conquering champ.

Honestly, at this point for it to all come to an end in a replacement Royal Rumble title match against somebody not even on his show would be INFURIATING. So, congrats to our new Universal Champ, Seth Rollins.

I can't see Roman losing at Mania 38 for some reason but I actually don't have a problem, at least for now, with the idea of him holding the title for that long. Well, this one didn't age well

Just a reminder, I made this thread in 2020 during the first few months of his reign and now we are a year past the point of my prediction lol
