I love the idea of broken Bray
I'm totally down for that tag team

 

[BonMorrison]

If it gets Bray a win at Mania, I'll take it.

If it gets Bray a win at Mania, I'll take it.

I'd just be happy for him to be on the main card at this point. Gotta keep the streak alive!

Bray needs to go 0-20 at Mania

 

[Conrad McBenis]

Bray needs to go 0-20 at Mania

Then beat a 70 year old undertaker to go 1-20?

No he's gotta pin the up and coming young talent who could use the rub and should have replaced the older guy. Just like Taker did at 31 to Bray.

 

[Loosie]

How many times does he have to come back before you realize he adds almost nothing? Also there's clearly some substance abuse taking place in his life

There is a tasteless Paige joke in here somewhere.

 

[GKJ]

Word from the observer on the Bar is that they will be involved in Wrestlemania, but will not have a match. Also, Sami and KO are slated for the battle royale atm

Wow. This is terrible.

 

[GKJ]

For the Bar, that is obviously setting up Authors of Pain to debut and win the titles on Raw

Jesus f***ing christ.

 

[dahrougem2]

Lol did people expect anything else? Mania is going to be awful because it's going to be all about Triple H, Stephanie McMahon, Ronda Rousey, and Roman Reigns.

 

[Disclose]

time for KO and Sami to start begging for a match with Shane.

 

[SeidoN]

Mania gonna be trash lol

Takeover gonna upstage it again

- PWInsider reports that WWE is filming The Ultimate Deletion today from the Hardy compound. There's no word on whether Senor Benjamin, Reby Hardy, King Maxel or Jeff Hardy will appear in it.

- Braun Strowman is currently not scheduled to have a Wrestlemania match either as he's still looked at as a back-up plan for the title match. If more superstars are added to the IC Title match, Strowman and Joe (if cleared) will be candidates. If Strowman doesn't work at Wrestlemania, he'll be a part of some non-wrestling gimmick during the show.

- Rich Swann is apparently retiring once he's done his bookings.

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH

 

[BonMorrison]

Have Strowman enter the Battle Royal and literally eliminate everyone like he did at the Elimination Chamber then go outside and destroy the trophy after he wins. It's silly but it could make for fun television at least.

 

[Sheppy]

What a f***ing shit show. KO and Sami slated for the battle Royal?

That's some horse shit right there.

Can't wait for the RAW after WM so they absolutely shit on the product. f***ing idiots.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Wow this WrestleMania really sucks outside of AJ and Nakamura

They'll probably even f*** that up to be honest.

Glad I won't be going to this one.

 

[xtra]

So with Sami and Zayn slated for the battle royal there is no payoff to the Vince headbutt, just poor execution from the wwe.

If NXT wasn’t so freaking great I’d have cancelled my subscription by now

 

[garnetpalmetto]

Speaking of NXT, Abbey Laith (the former Kimber Lee) has been released from her contract. A damn shame, if you ask me, because she impressed in the MYC.

Abbey Laith Released from NXT Contract

 

[Kimi]

That's unexpected. I'd actually forgotten she was signed, been there for a year but hardly used on TV. She's good, so I wonder why they've released her (and not used her more).

 

[SeidoN]

So with Sami and Zayn slated for the battle royal

wow Sami AND Zayn?

 

[garnetpalmetto]

That's unexpected. I'd actually forgotten she was signed, been there for a year but hardly used on TV. She's good, so I wonder why they've released her (and not used her more).

It's a good question. I assumed they were treating her largely the same as Mandy, Liv, and Sarah Logan prior to their call-ups - having her on the FL house show circuit before a promotion to the main roster. I know from following her on IG it seemed like she wasn't on the NXT tours outside of FL anymore (she was usually seen watching after Aleister Black's cat). What's crazy is the last NXT house show I went to in Concord, NC she was in a 4-woman tag match - her and Ruby Riott versus Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville. It's kind of crazy to think that 3 out of those 4 are on the main roster and Laith wasn't one of the 3.

 

[The Gongshow]

No Braun, KO & Sami in the battle royal...my god..... dub-dub-ee is so dumb

If Bar is slated for a Mania segment do they do an open challenge and AOP come out at Mania? Would they get a decent reaction *bon face* I'd probably mark a bit cause I like AOP, even when they debuted and people werent fans.
