They'd definitely shake things up more than Riott Squad

 

at this point the only thing that could save the Riott Squad is if Ruby and Liv "turn"/beat up Sarah Logan, kicking her out because of their lack of impact. Or Ruby beats them both up for the same reason. Please end this.

Yes... Royce/Kay would've made a much bigger impact.

 

which was obvious from the moment they introduced this doomed angle

it would probably fail anyway but at least peyton and billie give it a chance. it should've just been paige and those two on Raw and that's it

 

Apparently the fast lane main even has been leaked already

 

I don't wanna believe it but the graphic there looks legit (ie. they have more info about it than publically released)

 

since nobody actually posted it:

Nakamura vs. Styles vs. Orton vs. Zayn vs. Owens

WWE Title: Fatal 5-Way

edit: Keep in mind, if true, this also means none of those guys are winning the Rumble.

 

Damn it Cena

 

Clearly the rumble winner will be Rusev. The rumble is on Rusev Day after all...

 

doesn't Fastlane fall in the window of Orton's extended sabbatical? wouldn't put a ton of stock into it

 

Could have changed his plans though. Would make more sense to take time off after WM imo

 

the card for Friday's house show has changed three times in two weeks so i'm skeptical

 

The timing of ortons break never made sense to me because why tf would you miss mania

 

probably doesn't want to do the media and the autograph sessions/axxess stuff associated with mania time. maybe he wants to go somewhere warm while it's cold. who knows.

 

i also think we're at the point in ortons career where he doesnt really give a crap about wrestlemania anymore.

I'd be into heel Orton vs Nak at mania though. Sounds like a solid matchup.

and Cena vs Aj for the WWE title..... it's fine. It gets AJ Styles into a main event at wrestlemania with the biggest name in the company. I'm for it.

 

Remember when everyone was like "wow! Cena put Styles over!" Way back when and now it'll be Cena going over Styles - for the title again - two or three times in a row now since Styles last beat him (which was not for a title at SS)

 

• cena beats styles at mania
• styles gains an edge to his character, feels he needs to prove he can beat John in a high stakes match
• match 3 is at summerslam, some loser leaves town stip, or a "last chance" match where whoever loses can no longer challenge for the title as long as the other is champion
• styles goes over, cena leaves til rumble for his hollywood stuff

apologies for dumb fantasy booking. tl;dr - as long as Cena's (very hypothetical) win serves a purpose beyond #17, it's fine

 

So apparently Meltz is saying Cena is going to be in a bigger match than the WWE title match with AJ and threw out these names:
Batista, Undertaker, Hogan, Goldberg.

Said the Mania card will probably start becoming more obvious after the 25th anniversary Raw shows

 

nak/aj dreams live!

it's coming, we all know it is eventually, but fuck off with hogan

 

i'm confident that i'm in the minority when i say i'd be fine with either Taker or Goldberg. i wouldn't be excited for either but you could slap "first time ever" on either of those (unless you count some random 2003 Vengeance or something for Cena/Taker) and it would be a big easy marquee program.

Batista would be... acceptable. better feud than the HHH one Batista always talks about.

but Cena/Hogan, first time ever and all, is laughable

 

I really think it's going to be Cena/Taker, it is going to be fascinating how they spin what he did last year at the end of Mania.

 

i hope it means we get more dick-kick ‘Taker. i liked the last cowboy with nothing to lose angle.

 

Not sure I can handle enduring another Taker match. Last year was so painful to watch.

Cena vs Goldberg I can see happening. Batista? Nah they've done it. Hogan? I'd say no chance in hell.

 

Dave said Tessa is likely the major indie woman signing. Makes sense with Rico going.

 

sigh they should've just done Cena/Taker last year and let him walk away. instead we got that shitfest with Roman so Cena could have his forced moment and now we have to run it back again this year

 

Or as someone suggested on Reddit, he could be in a mixed tag match with Rhonda replacing the Rock.

Dave also said Rhonda is filming a movie next month so Rumble is unlikely unless she moves some scheduling things around. Could make sense for her match.
