Ahhhh you are thinking V!
That's actually brilliant! I mean no one wants trips in the main event AGAIN(hell no one wants the other 2 there either lol)but, if it means fixing the main event with dan winning the title and getting revenge on trips, this is perfect. So you get a YES from me!

That is Brilliant , V. I just realized that would be Dan/Goat overcoming all of EVOLUTION to have his Yes moment!

You know what's ironic? Wwe went with my exact idea.....but I actually liked V's better! Lol
So, it looks like Daniel Bryan is actually closing out mania as the wwe world champion after all. I highly doubt it will go down any other way, after all of this. But I don't think Bryan will have the title very long. I think Batista will align himself with the corporation and he will be the new "face of the company". He just fits the role better than Orton because, if there is anyone more opposite of Daniel Bryan than Randy Orton, it's Batista. Batista has all the attributes that Orton has except, he's a bit less smooth in the ring and has the classic big muscle look. He is the perfect offender for this storyline. Plus, orton's angle with dan was purely scripted and batista's angle was more personal and realistic with the fans.

I suppose they could still do the 4-way if Hogan decrees it, but I don't blame them from wanting to run Dan vs HHH. Assuming they don't just have HHH obliterate Dan with the sledgehammer to purposely lose yet keep Dan away from the title. Which would be the logical thing for him to do.

Triple H is going to look like such a schmuck when Bryan makes him tap out then still has enough in the tank to beat up his two best buddies and win the belt later on in the night.
The Andre Battle Royale sounds pretty good. I can see Big Show winning that match. It'll be some sort of reward for having to job to the likes of Akebono and Floyd Mayweather Jnr over the years.
Maybe the potential triple threat match with The Shield will be a good spirited "may the best man win" type of affair. I still think it will happen.
I can see Zeb slapping Cesaro in the next couple of weeks leading to the Cesaro v Swagger match. That could potentially be a match of the night contender, especially if the Cesaro Section is runnin' wild that night.

So it looks like the shield are faces now and they'll be in a 6 man vs Kane and the outlaws. What's sad about mania this year(for me) is, if that match takes place, I'll be looking forward to that more than any other match on the card. I'm really not excited about this mania at all. I'm going to say one thing about Daniel Bryan/triple H/main event. Daniel Bryan is definitely the guy for the big spot this year and honestly, this was really the only way to book it to cover all ends and fix a potentially big problem. It never would've worked with just Batista and Orton. But, I'm just not really excited about the entire thing. I'm not excited about dan Bryan's payoff, even though it's justified in every way. I think maybe I'm just not on the "yes" band wagon like everyone else. I LIKE Daniel Bryan and I think he's talented but he just doesn't make me super excited for a big event like say, stone cold, ultimate warrior, taker, hbk, hogan...etc I am actually more interested in the shield and I'm starting to get a little more interested in bray Wyatt and John cena. Speaking of, I think cena and Wyatt is kind of a mistake too. But I won't really know that until after the match. I don't know what they've got in store. The buildup has been one of the better builds this year. But I feel like, at least in this point in brays career, this match would have been awesome anywhere, except at wrestlemania. It just doesn't feel like a cena mania match. It feels more like stone cold vs Scott hall at mania 18. Like cena or hate him, he's the biggest wrestling name in the 21st century and you gotta use that name for guys who've at least been around longer than a year. I get what they're doing. They have a lot of faith in bray Wyatt and they want him to be a major player, and I couldn't agree more. But they should've had this match at a regular ppv and just have Wyatt go over clean. I think if they want to book cena as the winner, he should win by a small package or roll up. Wwe doesn't do enough of the "lucky for 3 seconds" matches. Then next ppv, have Wyatt go over clean. I'm not saying cena can't lose because it's wrestlemania. I just think it's a little more realistic to humble bray on the biggest stage, and have him go to even another level for their next match. I think a small package/roll up win for cena is a perfect way to keeping this real without burying bray. Brock vs taker: First, it would be nice if Brock would get off his god damn couch and actually participate in this feud. Its like this build is 25% undertaker, 70% of heyman talking, and 5% of Brock when he agreed to face taker in the ring. But this proves that even a guy as talented on the mic as Heyman can't carry the build to a big match like this. They are just sticking him out there to talk random shit just so we remember that this match is even happening. Then every other week, taker pops out and counters heyman with a few words and that's it. The only faith I have in this match at all is, I think it's going to be a very exceptional match, prob one of the best on the card. I'm just not giving a shit about it right now. Andre memorial battle: why do I have that disgusting fear in my gut that Alexander rusev is entering and winning this? It really should be big show. In Historical hind site, it will make sense. But it's becoming more and more obvious he's not winning, especially after smackdown last night. Once you start overexposing a battle royal participant as an odds on favorite, it's almost a guarantee he's not winning. But even if it's not big show, please don't make it rusev! Ps. Lana is fucking HOT! What the hell else is happening at mania? Lol I guess maybe a triple threat for the tag titles may happen with usos, real Americans, and rybaxel? Sounds boring, kind of like a preshow match. What about the divas? They usually get them to play in the sand for about 5 min and deliver us absolute shit. Meanwhile Paige and Emma are tearing it up in NXT. I don't get this company sometimes. In the divas defense, they get very little time out there and it's always a damn circus in those few min. I did hear a rumor that an NXT match might make it somewhere to the card and I'll prob be more excited for that than everything else! Nutshell: mania is doing nothing for me this year ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) On a side note, I think I got next year's mania main event already. For some reason I totally see this happening. Roman reigns vs Batista. I have a strong feeling that reigns wins the rumble next year and Batista goes into mania with the title as the top heel. I know it's a huge long shot. One year in wwe is like five real life years lol. But I'm predicting from now, reigns leaves mania 31 as wwe world heavyweight champion after beating Batista. I think reigns is the next "guy"

I'm not too excited at this point either. I am really disappointed that the best they can come up with for The Shield is a 6-man tag against Kane and the Outlaws. I was hoping for the triple threat, or the rematch with the Wyatts, or something better than this.
Undertaker v Brock just seems pointless to me. From the very start they should have at least had Brock demand the match, or have Paul Heyman put down Paul Bearer again for going in the Hall Of Fame. They're fighting just because. No real backstory to the match. I'm sure the match will be good, I just would have preferred a bit more depth to the story.
They can do some interesting things with Bryan and Evolution, but I'm just hoping they go with the obvious 'Bryan beats everyone' option. YES!
I also would have liked Cesaro v Swagger but now they are just in a big tag match and not even on the actual show.
The Divas match is just another lazy, thrown together mess again. That is if they even get the chance to go out this year.
I would also like to see Cena get beat up by Bray Wyatt and maybe squeak out a win. I'm sure Cena will win, so the stronger they make Bray look the better.

They can do some interesting things with Bryan and Evolution, but I'm just hoping they go with the obvious 'Bryan beats everyone' option. YES! I've got a weird feeling that Triple H is going to claim that all this trolling was designed to get Dan to the next level. Without HHH's goading, Dan never would have done the things you need to do to succeed in this sport - like last night's amazing run-in. That was kind of the point of the Steph-narrated video package - it doesn't matter if you have all the physical attributes or technical prowess or flashy daredevil moves (Steiner, Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy) if you can't "play the game". Daniel Bryan chucking HHH over the barricade is worlds different to the Daniel Bryan of a few months ago, who was crying while meekly vacating the title belt. eddddiiiiitttt: By the way, I'm still think there is a REALLY good chance that 4-way match happens... somehow... because the exclamation point to this story is Dan making Triple H tap out to win the title. My guess is we get the Magnus Special for Dan/HHH, followed by Hogan over-ruling that and putting both of them in the main event.

Since Wrestlemania build up typically ends the Raw before, here are my thoughts on how the card looks right now. -Divas Match: I haven't actaully been excited for a Divas match at almost any event since Trish vs Lita. This isn't changing that. -Andre Battle Royal: Someone is getting a rub, I love battle royals, this will be fun at worst. -Kane and Outlaws vs The Shield: It's a Shield 6 man tag. This will not steal the show, but it will be enjoyable. -Tag title match. Usos equal awesome. Real Americans are always solid. This is a match that Los Matadores and Rybaxel have a chance to make or break. -Cena vs Wyatt. I am excited for this one. This is what makes Wyatt. His promos have been improving, his matches are improving. This is good stuff right here. -Taker vs Brock. I don't want to see this at all. Taker is at his best with the technical wrestlers, that is what I want to see. Huge letdown from the HHH and HBK days. -Bryan vs HHH. I've got a full on boner for this match. This one is going to be the match of the night. -Orton vs Batista vs ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) . If Bryan wins, worth its weight in gold for the post match stuff. If Orton or Batista walk out champ, the crowd is going to kill some people. The actual match itself will be carried by Bryan.

It's going to be good when Daniel Bryan kicks numerous heads in, but other than that I am really underwhelmed. 90% of the roster has been lazily crammed in a Battle Royale for a trophy they have been desperately trying to hype up. The Usos vs The Real Americans would have been a decent tag title match on the show, but they have been stuck on the pre-show in an 8 man tag. I can't express how disappointed I am with the Shield's match. I'm sure they can make a good match of it, but there were so many better directions they could have went. The booking leading up to the Undertaker vs Brock match has absolutely sucked the life out of it for me. Everyone knows Undertaker is going to win, but they could have at least attempted to put some doubt in our heads by having Brock destroy him every time they interacted. I'll still enjoy the match because I love the Undertaker, but they could have did a much better job with the build.
I just hope they don't mess up the main event, or the ending at least, and have an ending which involves something other than Daniel Bryan yessing with the belts and 80,000 fans. I wouldn't mind seeing Triple H and Vince come down as Bryan is closing in on the title and try to screw him again, only for the glass to shatter and the roof to blow off. Austin stomping down and stunnering the suits before Bryan knees Orton's head off to win the title would be a nice way to do it.

Well I just found out stone cold is confirmed for mania. So that made me a little happier.
But even the 4 way main event stuff I'm not even excited about.
dan Bryan vs triple H will be a great match, possibly a show stealer, better than the main event even.
Brock vs taker is going to be an exceptionally good match. The problem is I Don't give a fuck about it.
I think the shield match will just be exciting having them at mania as faces against friends of the authority. Match will prob be pretty good too. I feel like the effort all 3 shield members have been giving, it's going to be fun. I think Rollins is going to have a big moment.
I fee like Bray vs cena will be a surprisingly good match
But I'm underwhelmed this year too by the event. A lot of star power this weekend. That's about it

I just looked at the betting for Wrestlemania, and you can get 38-1 on John Cena and Triple H to both win their matches. I am seriously tempted to put a couple of quid on that, because I think there is a reasonable possibility that Triple H beats Daniel Bryan via the Magnus Special, only for both to go into the Main Event (that also saves a proper Triple H vs Dan Bryan match - Hell in a Cell stipulation, maybe? - for another PPV).

I think cena and Bryan are winning. But I wouldn't bet against Wyatt.
I can see triple h cheating and winning and hogan making it a fatal 4
