So it looks more likely that Goldberg v Lesnar will be for the title, meaning there's a good chance the rumoured Wrestlemania card is pretty accurate (aside from Seth v HHH maybe).
What a waste.

I'm sure I read in the Observer (or somewhere else, don't quote me on that) that it will be a very quick match in which Goldberg is planned to win.
I wonder if there could be a fan backlash to Goldberg baeting KO so quickly.
Regarding Goldberg vs Owens it should go with Kevin Owens rolling out of the ring for the first minute and 16 seconds (or whatever the Goldberg/Lesnar Survivor Series match lasted) and have KO brag about lasting longer than Lesnar, then have Goldberg about to beat him when Lesnar costs Goldberg the match.
Kevin Owens beats Goldberg retains title and faces Jericho at Mania. Lesnar then gives Goldberg a reason to accept his challenge at Mania and away we go.
This would have made a lot more sense if Goldberg illogically didn't just accept Lesnars challenge on Raw last night for no reason. Instead we will get Goldberg destroying KO, and Lesnar and Goldberg being for the title. Lesnar/Goldberg wont be hanging around after Mania full time so unless they lose the belt the following night on Raw we are back to a ''part time'' Champion.

Might be a bit but I doubt they'd care if there was. This WM really is shaping up to be awful.
I'd insert Owens into the match and have him beat Lesnar and Goldberg making him look like a beast.
61 seconds will be my guess, at WM it be the 61 second man V the 61 minute man for the us title
I love all the nicknames Jericho is giving himself. The GOAT, Sexy Pinata, The 61 Minute Man.
I'd prefer to see Owens pushed to triple threat the Goldberg Lesnar match. We've seen Goldberg vs Lesnar and it won't be any better than the first match up. It needs another worker in the ring to carry some spots for Goldberg, whether Owens wins or not is immaterial.
Lesnar going over by pinning Owens means he technically beat Goldberg, Goldberg remains undefeated via pinfall or submission and Owens gets a big push by being in a main event.
Everybody wins.

He was even scarier when he was part of the Rosebuds.
I'm sure I saw that Lesnar is facing Owens for the title in some upcoming live event in March. I'm not 100% though because I have weird dreams and that could have been one.
Then again live events are subject to change etc etc.

I watched that true story of Royal Rumble documentary the other day and I felt so bad for Roman Reigns.
The documentary showed him behind the scenes after winning the RR a few years back when the fans had completely turned on him and booed him out of the arena. He looked absolutely gutted and just kept apologising to Triple H and Vince.

And since then he's been booked largely in exactly the same way
It's not Reigns' fault he's disliked, what can he do? Say "no don't push me" to Vince and Hunter and then become a jobber.
I predict the 2nd coming of Christ before we see Emmalina.
I'm sure I've read that her coming soon promos have run longer than she was actually out injured for.
I bet Curt Hawkins wished he was still having promo vignettes on SD vs actually arriving, losing then disappearing.
Also its a shame that neither AJ nor Owens will go into WM as champ given the years theyve had.

Does anyone even give a crap about Ziggler anymore? He turned now, but nothing changed. He still wrestles & sells like a babyface (excluding the occasional dirty move), behaves like a heel (even when he's a babyface) and looks like a mixture between Steel Panther member and HBK-lite.
Ziggler is completely pointless and has been for ages. He's a crap face who just does screamy "passionate" promos and he's a boring heel.
205 Live was tops this week. Well worth your time.
I've only got back into wrasslin' since Hell in a Cell 2016 but to me it feels like KO, Jericho, Braun, AJ Styles, Ambrose and Corbin have been carrying the WWE in that time... so it's a shame that none of these are likely to main event WM, instead the oldies will take over. Cena, Goldberg, Brock, Reigns, Undertaker, Orton... I really dont care for any of them at this point (except Cena - his in-ring performances have been good).
On seperate note, anyone see 205 Live? Really good one that was. Shame Jack Gallagher won the 5 man fight. I like him but I think Neville will/needs to hold the belt longer and they should have used that time to build Jack more. Whoever loses their fight will have taken some damage to their character. WWE need to show TJ Perkins some more love... dude is awesome. His entrance and fighting style are great!

I watched the Randy Orton doc on the network the other night.
Highly recommend watching it. My respect went up for him quite a lot after seeing that (not that I don't respect him anyway nowadays.

They still haven't learnt.
The crowd don't want Reigns. He is this generation's Lex Luger.
Roman Reigns can be a very good upper midcarder but he's not face of the company material.
And no , it's not his fault.
That Main Event was the WWE match of the week. Cedric's Standing Spanish Fly is a beautiful thing.
I actually liked pretty much all of WWE programming this week, granted Raw was pretty much a watch on tape delay to condense into 90 or so minutes. But still...
They had a Philly crowd cheering his title win because imo it was done right. (a year on after he was booed out by them).
They make him too corny when he should have always been a badass. Even his feud with Rusev, he doesnt have the charisma and wit of the Rock to pull off being a dick to heels, so he just comes off as being a douche
I dunno, I think he could be, if they did it right.

Enjoyed the whole show but the main event was great.
Also love how curved the tron is, so when Neville comes out, theres emphasis on the Evil part of his name
Intentional or not, its cool.
Going to end the same way as Curt Hawkins
How many of you guys and gals listen to wrestling podcasts? The Attitude Era Podcast and New Generation Project are really good.
OSW review is class as well.

I'm pretty old school so listen to Prichard, Bischoff, Cornette (hilarious) and Schiavone when I get chance.
I listen to a few yeah, WrestlingInc, ShakeThemRopes, Tuesday Night Jaw and the East Coast Cast are favorites. But I often have them on to fall asleep so I am not sure how much I actually hear.
Hope AJ regains the title tonight.
Just cannot see AJ vs Orton happening, but AJ really did deserve to go into WM as champ.
I seriously cant think of what AJ can do for WM except maybe face Ambrose for the IC title but that seems a step down.

Well then @Duffy Good Friday looks like an understatement right now
Wait, what I miss? Something other than the 6 man been announced?
Either way, yes it's gonna be off the hook.
Still just that but they've announced it as a live only dark match, meaning Kenny is going to have his working boots on in his determination to do something special.
