This may or may not also be the Hall of Fame watchalong thread or maybe the other thread will be, hell if I know!
It's the last stop before WrestleMania and we are live from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California! Announced for tonight...
- Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes have their last confrontation before WrestleMania
- The Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal
- Probably a metric shitload of video packages

Also, McIntyre and Sheamus v Imperium Italian and Imperium German. It sucks that the match is right before Mania because if it wasn't, I'd expected a banger, but WWE tends to play it safe with bigger names on the card (I completely understand why), so I'm expecting a good match, just not as good as I think it could be. |

So does Lashley win the the Andre in dominant fashion or does he get screwed by someone to set up a proper mania match?

Wait wait wait... the Andre the Giant Battle Royale is so prestigious that it's not even on a preshow anymore?

Considering that HoF is like 30 minutes after this I suspect that they’re going to phone this joint all the way in tonight. Probably some randos are going to get matches.

Made it through one round of storms with tornado warnings this afternoon, hoping that I can watch Smackdown, Rampage, HoF and Spring Break without a second round. =/

I'm hoping Lashley gets screwed in the Battle Royal to set up a proper match for Mania (the staticians on these boards would be screaming ''nooooo'' if it happened lol as they're hoping to be done with that lol)
But I think Lashley WILL win the Andre Royal.
Not expecting to give SmackDown a high score tonight, BUT having said that I had low expectations for this week's RAW and it ended up being a good one so fingers crossed for that again.

Cody and Roman’s segment should be a good’un. Hoping they can resist the temptation of having the two trade blows and just save it for Sunday. |

Could be a decent one though I think it'll be hard to top the last one imo. |

Just one final face to face shot to close out the show. |
