The Wrestling Thread

Rhodes has been doing nothing for 6 months.

They could have atleast had some hostility between Rollins and Rhodes for the last few months.

This is the reason why people are ■■■■■■. There is zero hostility between Rollins and Rhodes.

But you know what they say: the fourth match is always the sealer, especially after you swept the first three with half your chest hanging off.

Apprently cast memebers who worked with The Rock on Fast and Fururious didnt like him they all think his ego gets in the way

If people want Rhodes and reigns in the main event that’s fine , what do they think should be the main event night 1. There is no big match with big stars who can pull it off

No sh*t.

He’s the f*cking Rock.

The great one. The greatest of all time. The best on the mic we have ever seen.

Come on Nino, he saved that franchise when he appeared in number 5. The 2 that had an issue with him were the ones with fragile ego’s. Vin thought he was being upstaged becuase F&F is all he has, and Gibson is a awful actor who only has that franchise as well

The Rock is a megastar who brings eyeballs to the product

Rock vs Roman

Drew/Gunther vs Rollins

A main event of wrestlemania with drew,Rollins, Gunther is not a big deal in the least. If you paid thousands of dollars to go to wrestlemania and THAT was the main event, you would feel pretty ripped off

Wrestlemania is supposed to have the biggest moments and biggest matches

Cody/Rollins with Cody winning gives you a big moment night 1

Rock/Roman gives you a monster match and big moment night 2

Ooh ooh, I know the answer to this one… bring back Oldberg!

If the WWE can’t make a convincing second story from their roster, they should just shut down.

There is a good chance it could be Rhodes vs Damien Priest at Mania.

What if Cody dosent want the WHC belt espically after Roman trashed it by saying “its the loser bracket belt”

Wins b2b Royal Rumbles,gets pushed as the top guy only to be told “Sorry the rock is taking your spot but here go as a considlation prize you can have the second best belt”

Punk to Cody

“I see they CM Punked you too i feel your pain” :laughing:

let’s not pretend for a moment that the rock in a match in 2024 will be any good. it will have to be short, or have a lot of shithousery

simmo41’s dumb idea to make this all work:
rhodes v priest for the mitb briefcase
rock v reigns in tribal combat (no title)
rock wins, jimmy and solo have to kiss the ring or whatever and heyman gets f5ed by pat mcafee etc etc etc
roman left alone and battered in the ring, crowd knows exactly what’s coming but goes nuts for it anyway
adrenaline in my soul etc etc
12min banger of a match
cody wins, this one’s for you daddy, fireworks, the weeknd performs a cover of x gon give it to ya
scene

What will be interesting is seeing the response of Sikoa and Jimmy Uso, and not knowing who to follow. It’s a good way of ending the Bloodline.

And Jey Uso joins The Rock

People are not arguing about Rock as a draw, and we all wanted to see Rock/Roman (last year was the perfect time) but the execution and outcome of doing it this way is embarassingly pathetic - there were more intersting ways to get to the outcome besides cutting Rhodes ballz off a week after the rumble and with like one sentence from the Rock so far, like he hasn’t provided one hint on why farking now besides his failing movie career needing a bump

Yeah it was odd that Rhodes wins the Rumble and points at Reigns.

Perhaps he went off script with that.

But besides that, Rhodes hasn’t even spoken to Roman Reigns in 10 months.
People have been hyping up a fued that isn’t there.

The main reason why, is because people are still ■■■■■■ off that Rhodes didn’t beat Reigns last year. It should have happened, and it didn’t.

There is no doubt that they want to keep Roman Reigns as champion past Hogan’ record (and potentially Backlund).

That is not The Rock’s fault. WWE won’t bury Rhodes with another defeat to Reigns at Mainia

That makes sense, how could they have made this big a mess of it is pretty astounding, though likely driven by the fact R&R will never actually be there to participate in a regular storyline anyway

Tanahashi becomes NJPW president, and instantly wins the World TV championship (from someone at their actual peak).

Rock becomes board member, and instantly is inserted into the Wrestlemania main event.

This. If reigns and Cody had fueded since WM or at least had a few interactions throughout the year I could completely understand the uproar. But there has been nothing between them.

I’m more than happy to smash the wwe for their lousy booking or rubbish storyline’s, but they are making the best of a horrible situation

Lesnar and Punk both can’t wrestle night 1, so Cody has to be moved there to make it an attraction.

Rock is the biggest name they could possibly get to make people take notice. Austin isn’t going to do a proper match, there is nobody else that can come in and make an impact like The Rock

How is overtly cucking Rhodes and Rollins making the best of a horrible situation?

Is the argument that they were all-in on Punk, called an audible during the Rumble (but failed to also tell Rhodes to only point at The Sign), and had zero faith in Rock’s ability to keep himself the face vs Roman?
