For those who liked the Daniel Bryan doc last night, I recommend Journey to Wrestlemania: Daniel Bryan.

Vid for those who don't have the Network.

WM28 is a real mixed show tbh, there's some great stuff in there but also some absolute *bleep* dogshit crap.

It's no 27 mind which IMO is the worst WM i have ever seen, i would have to watch 1-15 back again as everything i have read seems to state that WM 9 is *bleep* awful but we'll see.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

God 29 looks awful, not sure i can persist through this one.

Fandango vs Jericho, Mark Henry vs Ryback, Del Rio vs Swagger and Orton,Sheamus and Big Show vs The Shield

That is 4 of the 7 matches lmao, 27 might have a contender

Edit: Nope i can't do this lmao.

[Kaladin]

MITB 2014 is good

[M99]

MITB 2011 is the GOAT. You should definitely check that out.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Kalisto and Ryback confirmed to be on the pre show

[M99]

That means Brie, Eva Marie and co vs Team Lana will be on the main show.

Which is far worse. Ryback and Kalisto actually had a good match a few months back.

[silver]

No they wont. Brie and co vs Lana and co will definitely be on pre-show.

Shield vs Sheamus/Orton/Big Show was actually a decent match In fact, I don't think there's a single bad 6-man tag match involving the Shield.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Nah there's 4 matches on the pre show.

Kalisto-Ryback, 10 divas tag, battle royal and Usos-Dudleys.

He's so *bleep* good lmao.

[Casciavit]

He should be the top heel, but I don't see them ever making him a main eventer because he's short and fat.

[RealGunner]

Going to binge on the last few RAWs this weekend to prep for WM.

[Casciavit]

You'll regret it

[RealGunner]

I know. Read the reports of them already. Apparently this road to WM has the lowest raw ratings ever recorded lol

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Don't advise it RG, i can tell you anything you want to know anyway

Like i said before last year had a bad build and that didn't stop the matches from being quality if the talent allowed to be....

I personally think it will be good event if the lower-midcard will be allowed the time anyway. That's really my only concern that they try and give HHH-Reigns 40 or so mins for some moronic reason.

[Casciavit]

Ratings have been on a downward trend for years, but this RTWM has been awful. Maybe not as bad as last year's, but still bad either way.

I'm not even sure if the matches will deliver. The fans don't know who to cheer between Taker-Shane, and Shane hasn't been in the ring for 7 years. That doesn't even take into account that Taker isn't the ring general he was years ago.

Ambrose-Lesnar will either be fantastic or heavily underwhelming. The booking of this match will show if WWE values Ambrose and views him as a potential top guy. I just hope the Wyatts don't interfere. Ambrose shouldn't win, but if he does and it's due to Wyatt interference.

The crowd will shit on Reigns-HHH. If Reigns wins clean and smiles like a dufus while the crowd is booing him...

[M99]

Buildup for Takeover Dallas has been worse. Still looking forward to it.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

In terms of crowd reaction i think i agree, was more on about the quality of the matches themselves tbh.

Not much you can do if the crowd decide ahead of time to shit on it though. Although i don't think the crowd will shit on anything other than the main event.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Buildup for Takeover Dallas has been worse. Still looking forward to it.

That's true

Part of it is due to the fact 2 of the matches involve guys who are debuting for the first time and it was leaked weeks ahead of time before they even recorded any of it.

Only match on the NXT card which will be a dud imo will be the Crews-Samson match but it won't last long anyway.

[Onyx]

Can't believe the shield's enforcer is about to main event 2 WM's in a row. Who would have imagined it.

[Casciavit]

They had high hopes for him since FCW tbf.

Shane-Taker will be smokes and mirrors. It'll kinda be like Sting-HHH from last year.

As I said regarding Ambrose-Lesnar, this can be a fantastic match, but I have my doubts. It SHOULD deliver, but I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't.

Reigns-HHH will be your typical HHH match. A 30 min match filled with false finishes. It'll probably turn out pretty good, but the crowd won't give it a chance.

[Onyx]

Yeh same with Rollins. They couldn't afford to look bad if 2 of their hyped projects flopped, which is why both were pushed to the moon. It wasn't because of their talent.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

I enjoyed Sting-HHH tbf

I personally expect Ambrose-Lesnar and Shane-Taker to be fun, in the same way most gimmick matches are. There won't be much technical wrestling ( ironically Styles-Jericho and Diva's triple threat are the best example of that imo ) but i think they'll be enjoyable.

In terms of Reigns-HHH, i think the match itself can go either way. Roadblock proved to me that HHH can still go, but it's not gonna matter if the crowd shits on it.

Only good thing about it is the crowd will probably cheer everything HHH does

[M99]

Rollins got over purely because of his talent lol.

Stop deluding yourself just because you personally dislike him.

[RealGunner]

WM needs a lot of surprise returns
