I think the conventional wisdom was that Balor was going to lose and then head to the main roster soon. Could this signal that Joe might be headed up soon instead?

as soon as tomorrow?

In the past few years, they've had some NXTers make their debuts the Monday after Wrestlemania. I wouldn't be surprised to see Bailey on Monday, and maybe 1-2 guys.

I guess it's possible he could be in the battle royal, but Raw is more likely.

it seems really strange to me that dustin rhodes is only one year older than chris jericho

it only recently hit me why him and cody use "dust" in their names

Mania predictions:

Battle Royal: Cena
Kalisto/Ryback: Ryback
New Day/LON: New Day
IC Title Ladder Match: Zayn
Styles/Jericho: Styles
Women's Tag Match: Paige's Team
Women's Title Match: Sasha
Ambrose/Lesnar: Lesnar
Shane/Taker: Shane
HHH/Reigns: Reigns

Edit: I do think there are going to be a few swerves in these matches, especially the main event. I think Reigns wins, but I don't think it will be a clean victory.

Damn, Ambrose is OFF HIS GOURD tonight. I wonder if he's going to catch some flak from the boss.

[Simple Torture]

I think Cena entering the battle royal is a solid prediction. That or he interferes to help Shane win, setting up Cena-Taker next year?

Could Rollins try to help HHH and then accidentally help Reigns?

Dean Ambrose was fucking toasted at the Hall of Fame.

Is there any pimps up in this house?

Man, Vader was so wasted by the WWE.

Vader was and is phenomenal. Why isn't he in this stupid hall of fame?

And there should be a rule that Flair inducts one person per year. Jesus Christmas, I could listen to that insane man ramble all day.

Flair is absolutely incapable of talking about anyone other than himself.

Is there any chance reigns doesn't walk out of wrestlemania champ?

Is there any chance reigns doesn't walk out of wrestlemania champ?

I'd say 25 pct. From everything I've seen Reigns is getting booed everywhere he goes this weekend, I have to think it's giving them some pause.

If he doesn't, I think it's going to have to be a Cena-Batista situation, i.e. Reigns wins and then the Authority makes him defend it immediately. I just can't see HHH walking out with it

I could see something like that.

Like I said before, I think the least likely scenario is Reigns winning clean as a babyface.

[Simple Torture]

If Shane wins, does he only get booking power on Raw or does he get to book PPVs, too? If he wins, he could swerve the end and try to install someone he wants as champ.

I'm watching wrestlemania 9 right now. I want to punch Todd pettengill in the face.

Listening to Booker T try and explain the importance of a woman's championship vs. a diva's championship is just about the funniest thing I've ever seen.
