Asuka is busy being in a tag team and Shayna winning the rumble would make her a good instant challenger for Becky. Introducing her in the mid card would kill her instantly.

if they don’t let asuka win the belt this month they need to send her to nxt to let feud with ripley.

this is a giant waste of everyone’s time to have her lose to mediocre at best talent like botchy Lynch and not get her own legit title run.

guess I should just be happy someone else recognizes that Charlotte is one of the best ever. Probably the best. And no current female is even close.

I kinda thought the street profits title match would be at wm36 and not in another country.

Apparently everything is being thrown out as other plans:

Only 2 matches have being booked and 1 pretty much official:

McIntyre/Lesnar
Ripley/Charlotte
*Styles/Taker* ( which seems like a quiet show stealer)

If sting was medically cleared by wwe, why are we not getting sting/taker?

There are so many possible matches that mania really needs to be like a 2 day affair. Frankly there isn’t even enough room on e card for flair/ripley to not be done at takeover.

will they be doing another battle royal?

if you include those 3. There are 8 other title matches. (Universal, IC, US, Raw TTT, SD TTT, RWT, SDWT, WTT).

And that may not include a match for Reigns. So that's 12 matches if he doesn't face the Fiend.

That alone is too big of a card. And that doesn't even include Cena's WM match (if it's not the Fiend, I'm hoping for Corbin to retire him...make that his "thing" after Angle before him).

Not looking good so far...


A match flair can’t win, and a universal title match no one but Vince wants...

My assumption would be that they're figuring Goldberg is a better draw than Bray Wyatt so if they do put Wrestlemania on another streaming service, it'd get more people to buy it. I'd be shocked though if it'd be over 10 minutes.

I mean if you’re talking about attracting non wwe or lapsed wwe fans, sure, call back the best era in pro wrestling history.

but if you’re trying to get more actual wwe fans, idk how this helps. The fiend was the top merchandise seller since like July. He was the top star in the entire company, and you buried him in less time than it took to get everyone to the ring...

That’s probably what they’re going for because the hardcore fans will probably buy the ppv no matter what. It’s the casual fan that they’re going to try to get.

casual fans means they're still current. Meaning that they don't need a guy who barely do his NUMBER ONE TOP MOVE, to have the top belt in the business.

Just having him in a passing the torch match with Reigns as the master of the spear or some BS would've been fine.

Cena/Fiend would get a lot of people to watch as well. The two most over guys during their time (past and present).

Not necessarily. To me, a casual fan is someone that might pop in every once in a while just to see what’s going on. Goldberg is going to have more crossover appeal to a casual viewer than the Fiend, especially if they decide to move Wrestlemania to another platform like ESPN+.

goldberg will have more appeal to fans who aren’t checking in at all anymore who wish it was like the 90s.

kids don’t get anything out of either him or the fiend, either.
