I thought there might be a chance they did that false finish in the title match so they can add Ambrose(and maybe Lesnar) to the title match at Mania.

man, i hope so. reigns/hhh by themselves just doesn't do much for me. i was kind of surprised lesnar didn't come out during/after the match (or dean during lesnar's match)- i was pretty much expecting that and, nothing. you get lesnar x-amount of days, why not use him as much as you can when you have him? if they do go the triple threat/4-way route, it's even more odd they didn't interact at all.
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.

I can't believe they'd be willing to have the finish of Wrestlemania be Reigns getting booed out of the building while Michael Cole pretends it's not happening.

no matter what they say, I'm convinced that they changed things last year because of this, but there's no way in hell they're changing the plan this year...Reigns is going to win at WM, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if a returning Orton, Cena or Rollins makes his reign a lot shorter than initially planned

Really, two years in a row, because putting Daniel Bryan over in the main event of WM30 was never something they planned on/wanted to do.

The only way I think they could take the sting off of it(assuming Reigns wins as a face,) is maybe to have Rollins come out and confront him after the match. At least someone that would get a surprise return pop.

I've booked the day off work on the 4th of April. Going to snooze my way through Sunday, then rock WrassleMania at midnight or whatever it is in this stinking country.

I haven't watched a PPV since Summerslam, but since this is going to be another free network month, I'll almost certainly watch WM.

I think you can cancel after the free month, but you only get a free month once.

do you use a device to stream the wwe network? i have the old roku and it's not an option on there...i know i can just watch on my laptop, but i'd like to post and watch at the same time

I've had 3 free months with 3 different emails, so I dunno if that's an easy option. Maybe I used 3 different payment details as well, but I can't remember

yeah i thought about doing that too...a few months ago i was really considering cancelling cable and picking up the network, but at that time i thought i could watch raw/smackdown as they aired live, and i thought they had more older programs i.e. all old nitro's, thunders, ppv's etc...) in their catalogue....i just got my car paid off and my job situation in order so i decided to keep cable, and since i also have netflix and amazon prime adding the wwe network is just too much tv at this point
