Matt D Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I will say that there's no worry of killing Philadelphia off. That crowd will want to come back to boo next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Enthusiast Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I know the tradition in recent years is for all the big matches to go long, but that'd be quite the risk this year. I mean I certainly hope they're not dumb enough to have 56 year old Sting go 25 minutes. Don't sell them short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I'd argue that WWE no longer run towns often enough to ever kill them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migs Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Man, WWE had Bryan vs. Brock right fucking there. Now even if they scramble and begrudgingly put Bryan in the top spot, chances are it wont be nearly as fun as what could have been. Ugh. They couldn't wait one year with Reigns? Why the rush? Give Bryan is actually run and then next year give it to Reigns. He's young and has room to grow, SLOW THE FUCK DOWN! you know what really fucking kills me? Bryan's 2006 ROH title run is the perfect template for a WWE title run. He started as a babyface and gradually got more arrogant and dastardly with each title defense. If they are so concerned about Bryan's longevity and making Reigns the top guy then why not go with that format? Have Bryan slowly turn heel to the point that eventually fans will be begging for someone to beat him? I have absolute faith that Bryan could turn the fans on him too. I think he's a natural heel anyway. The Summer of Punk was a swiped ROH angle, so they clearly aren't above that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Bennett Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I know he's a terrific heel. I just don't think anyone has any interest in booing Daniel Bryan right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamthedoctor Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 So apparently Vince is playing the "it is all the city of Philadelphia fault" for the reaction to Roman Reigns according to Meltzer. Might I add that Pittsburgh was the location of last year's Royal Rumble which is either known for a non-insider crowd or a crowd that doesn't give a shit about anything. If they want to play this east coast issue with fan reaction, wait until Wrestlemania at the home of the World Series SF Giants if they have Daniel Bryan in a nothing match Roman Reigns was always going to bomb on the live crowd. He is nowhere near ready for the main event scene. Im not a Reigns hater but if he the supposed god saviour of WWE for the next decade pushing him now to the main event scene is the wrong thing to do. Some of the decisions WWE come up with is crazy considering the fans are the ones who make a wrestler. Maybe in the future they do a voting system. Let the fans vote for who should win the Rumble. We all know its pre determined well us adults do so there be no harm in us voting for who we want to win. Please stop posting while drunk. Whats wrong with a voting system? Least then the fans get what they want. Ive seen plenty of fans crap on a match because their favourite didnt win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimmas Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 How do you salvage WrestleMania 31 now? If you are stuck with Reigns-Brock you really need Heyman to go with Reigns and Brock to go babyface. Ideally you re-sign Brock and he retains then you build up Reigns as a heel. Where does that leave Bryan? What if Rusev makes Cena submit at Fast Lane and Bryan takes on Rusev at Mania? Seth-Orton, Triple H-Sting are fine. Of course Cena, Dolph, Bray, Ambrose, Cesaro are all out there still. I like the idea of Cena being old and beaten down and not being able to cut it anymore so he wants to face a young gun at Mania to prove he still has it. Someone like Ambrose, Dolph or Cesaro.

Bierschwale Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I'm pulling for HHH & Barrett/Big Show vs. Sting & Orton/Ziggler. I just can't deal with the prospect of a HHH-Sting singles match, no matter how elaborate the smoke and mirrors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cm funk Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 HHH & Big Show vs. Sting & Ziggler would be good. Would have a ton of heat and Dolph is a great FIP. The roof would come off the place when Sting finally got the hot tag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kardo Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 I was thinking Cena/Ziggler/????/Sting vs HHH/Show/Kane/???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WashingtonFB Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 No matter how they try to rectify the situation, barring any major changes (like Brock dropping the title), Bryan is in the outs. The headlining Mania matches are set in stone and I can't see Bryan getting a spot there. I'm really hoping they can somehow pony up to get Rock to work against Bryan because if not, he's getting a match against the likes of Sheamus, Big Show or Kane.

Coffey Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 I thought the one that was different was Cena 'cause the rest were jobbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
