I confess I just saw the Fastlane results so far.

 

I'm a big fan of Randy Orton, so I'm really happy that he got the title (and became Grand Slam). It seems that the next contestant for the title can be Jinder Mahal, even though they already had a feud in 2017 very recently... Maybe a Triple Threat with him and Bobby Roode would be nice to see. (Jinder Mahal as US Champion? Really ironic, lol...). I would love to see Baron Corbin come back for his US title too(I'm a Corbin fan!)

 

Asuka VS Charlotte for Wrestlemania? I'm pretty excited. I think that Asuka should come to Smackdown, which is the brand that is more "fragile" in terms of Women's Division and Asuka would be a nice addition to it. (At Raw, we already have powerhouses like Alexa Bliss, Sasha Banks and Nia Jax!! Please give Nia Jax that damn title already!)

 

AJ Styles victory. Kinda predictable, I think he is the ideal person to face Nakamura at WM. Period.

Huge congratulations to Randy Orton for winning the United States Championship (and becoming the 10th Grand Slam Champion. Looks like he's already making history this year. Cena, where you at? ?) His next opponent is probably Jinder Mahal and I hope he buries him 3 times or more, the same way he was buried 3 times last year in the Backlash, Money in the Bank, and Battleground PPVs.  

 

I kinda saw the Charlotte vs Asuka match at WrestleMania coming, and I'm really happy about this. You could even see the fear in Charlotte's eyes after beating Ruby Riot for the SmackDown Women's Championship. Now that Asuka has her match (which is more like a Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns 2015 deja vu), I think Carmella can pull off a successful cash in, just like Seth Rollins but we'll see. I think Alexa Bliss will face Nia Jax at WrestleMania (she really deserves the opportunity after getting buried twice recently). 

 

Xavier Woods injury and the whole Bludgeon Brothers invasion, didn't see that coming. There'll probably be a Triple Threat Tag Team at WrestleMania. 

 

AJ Styles is still WWE Champion, it was predictable like c'mon. Now he says on Twitter that it's the main event of WrestleMania. Who should I believe now, Roman or AJ? Cena is now out of the WrestleMania picture? Many people expected The Undertaker's return? I don't think it's over for Cena yet, we might have to find out on either RAW or SmackDown. Might be seeing Stephanie McMahon roast John Cena again about "not what WWE would be without John Cena, it's where John Cena would be without WWE."

Looks like Jeff Hardy is arrested for driving while impaired type of thing. There goes his return I guess -_-

 Fast lane was great

I was worried for AJ when cena was placed in the main event. Like they had second thoughts about Styles vs Nakamura. So glad they didn't and now i'm looking forward to wrestlemania

Oh dear, that isn't good for brother nero. I'm just getting shades of his run with CM Punk.

There is a good chance he may get released, considering his history with drugs. I'm hoping he doesn't and starts to come clean. Otherwise, I have a bad feeling that history might repeat itself. (i.e. TNA Victory Road)

Maybe....or maybe it is time for Matt to ask the 7 Deities for help and walk Jeff into the Lake of Reincarnation and have him be reborn once again

I read that Jeff had been released just an hour after being arrested.

 

But I hope that he won't reunite with Matt Hardy, first of all because I am not a fan of the Woken Gimmick, and then because I've Always been a fan of Jeff Hardy, and I really want to see him competing in single competition. It would be great to have him being traded to SmackDown during the next Shake Up and to see him competing for the WWE Championship.

 

 

(2009 feels, lol)

I'm so relieved that AJ Styles kept the title and it's really cool that Randy Orton won the US Championship. Plus, Asuka finally showed up to challenge Charlotte for the Women's Championship at WrestleMania. Took them long enough to make that move. Nia Jax vs Alexa Bliss will be good as well for sure. The WrestleMania Card looks very promising already as does NXT Takeover.

so a few things that stuck out to me this raw.

Nia Jax is going through a emotional rollar coaster ride (if you still consider the fling she had with amore). I think there is potential  of good storytelling for her. 

 

John Cena challenging the undertaker. Looks like they are actually going through with this. As much of a fan of the undertaker, I think he need to retire. He has definitely earn it considering all he has done for the company. I am guessing he might win at wrestlemania just to have his career end. But then again, the ending to Taker vs Reigns (as much as i hate the outcome) ended perfectly. He leaves his outfit in the ring, kisses and wife and leaves the ring with crowds chanting "Thank you Taker". how do you top that?

 

Braun Strowman winning the tag team royal to face the bar. I'm guess next week they are going to let him choose his partner.

Having Roman Reigns suspended gave me a good laugh the way he walked out of Vince McMahon's office. Brock Lesnar might finally come next week to infuriate Roman Reigns. I like where this whole thing going. Finally having the boss in the story.

 

John Cena always has something to say and it was sort of a roast. If The Undertaker doesn't show up then somebody's gonna buy him a ticket. I think it will be cool match and I liked how he compared himself with The Deadman. Posting pictures of him working out on Michelle McCool's Instagram killed it and I went nuts. 

 

We might finally get Nia Jax to face Alexa Bliss at WrestleMania. Their friendship is over now. After months of burial she's finally back. 

 

Too bad Braun Strowman had nothing to do. I think his partner will be Big Show just like @GoodbyeBread mentioned. Just afraid they might make Elias his Tag Team partner. Otherwise he could just win all the titles for himself :lol:

Raw was good, especially the continuation of the Alexa/Nia storyline and Sasha/Bayley. Now that Ronda Rousey is a WWE superstar, the writers put more effort into the Women's division to push some of the girls.

 

Smackdown did an amazing job too and I enjoyed it even more than Raw. We finally saw a more serious Big E teaming up with Jimmy Uso - which was a neat idea - only to get squashed by the Bludgeon Brothers. The stare down between Asuka and Charlotte was kinda cool. Though the highlight cleary took place at the end of the show, when Owens & Zayn destroyed Shane. Payback's a bitch :D .

I think Shane McMahon deserved that beating (or annihilation) he received from Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn. Daniel Bryan is back next week and I don't think KO & Zayn are afraid to do the same. Oh crap there'll be another WrestleMania match for the two. Sometimes I don't understand these guys all. First they are a team working together and then they start blaming each other for their losses at Fastlane when it was actually Shane's fault. I'm also tired of seeing the two fight. Just make them Tag Team Champion so Kevin Owens can be Grand Slam Champion. 

 

I liked how Randy Orton, Jinder Mahal and Bobby Roode all interacted and now I think there'll be a Triple-Threat Match at WrestleMania. Also sad to see Bobby without the title in the Mixed Match Challenge as they faced Rusev & Lana. (Fun fact: Randy Orton is the second ever to join Chris Jericho in the Grand Slam Champion club, having the US Championship as their last accomplishment :)) 

 

Finally some serious stuff when Jimmy Uso and Big E joined forces to take on The Bludgeon Brothers and get beaten at the end. Now this may lead to a Triple Threat SmackDown Tag Team Championship match. (Fun fact: It's the second time ever Jimmy Uso having a Tag Team match without his brother Jey)

 

Carmella finally won a singles match after a long time. Apparently they will make her cash in at WrestleMania so it will be Triple Threat bit still lose to Asuka.

so....I got news that women's battle royal name got changed.

I hate to be the guy that is living under a rock, but can anyone inform me why? some times, things changed while life is happening and I don't notice. This is one of those moments.

While WWE might herald Moolah as a pioneer in Women's wrestling and a saint...she is actually a horrible horrible person.

 

She held wrestlers back, shot on Wendi Ritcher in the ring and pinned her for real causing her to be held back but the worst thing of it all was she used to pimp women out to promoters for money.

 

She held a lot of power so if a woman wanted to get booked on a show they may need Moolah's OK. That means Moolah got to sell women wrestlers to promoters for sexual favours and then that girl could get booked on the show.

 

So when WWE announced this tournament fans were outraged that the WWE would want to honour this woman. It was actually fans threatening Snickers that got WWE to change their mind though. So WWE (champion of women) wouldn't do something from a moral standpoint but instead from a business standpoint.

Wow, that's just horrible.

It very frustrating and saddening to hear what all those went through, just to get pushed. Glad they changed the name. I'm wondering if WWE is going to remove her from the hall of fame (or other previous entries) from the enlightening information

 

Anyway, Thanks Dr_Mayus for filling me in. I appreciate it :)

Yeah, she ain't getting removed. The hall of fame is filled with people like Ultimate Warrior (who said extremely racist and homophobic remarks), Mike Tyson ( a convicted rapist), Snuka (who probably killed his girl friend but Vince more than likely paid off the right people to keep the charges muddied), Donald Trump...won't go into that one but his last 14 months in off has illuminated some more shit about him etc. etc. etc

 

It is why people laughed when HHH made that remark about Chyna and how he didn't want young children googling her and finding out she did porn...but Tammy Stytch is in the Hall of Fame and she not only did porn and did other sexual acts for money but has numerous DUIs and other drug/alcohol charges.

 

Not to mention how WWE is so "pro" women with Steph leading the charge but HHH walks Floyd Mayweather to the ring a man known for how he uses his fists outside of the ring.

WWE just announced that Strowman needs to have a partner at WM 34...

 

And here I thought I would be able to enjoy a truly special moment with ONE man raising both titles above him but nope, let's just ruin all the build of Strowman and reward him with a normal tag match. I understand the logic behind the fact that he has to have a partner but who cares about the rules when it comes to WWE ? Most fans are here to be entertained so why not have Strowman be THE tag team champion and reward him for being the most over character (with AJ Styles) and making RAW interesting in 2017 :( 

 

His partner will more likely be The Big Show or Elias but if it's Elias I just hope he never tag him into the match/destroy him before the match even starts.

 

Unfortunately, Strowman will be overshadowed at Wrestlemania once again because everyone knows WWE is going to focus on the mixed tag team match between Kurt and Ronda vs Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.

 

Concerning RAW, I enjoyed the ultimate deletion and it was entertaining for what it was, I even wished it was longer :P Don't know what this lake of reincarnation really is but maybe Bray is going to join Matt in his woken madness.

True, it was stupid, but I liked it somehow, because it was something different and really unusual for WWE TV these days. The brief appearance by Brother Nero was cool too. Other than that, Raw was decent, but nothing special. Happy for Mark Henry, although he would've deserved one last match, before being inducted into the Hall of Fame. I know he retired last year, but come on...

The Ultimate Deletion match was very awesome. It should definitely be nominated for Match of the Year. The only match with a flashback (Bray's compound but we all know who burned it down ?) and pyros for the first time. Great appearance from Brother Nero and I can't wait to see what's next. Everything including the lake of reincarnation we might see Bray Wyatt transform into Husky Harris again. Matt Hardy has a nice family. 

 

This whole Bayley and Sasha Banks story is getting on my nerves. Bayley is basically a cry baby who didn't even have the guts to hit Sasha if what she did at Elimination Chamber made her so mad. It was every woman for herself even Roman Reigns eliminated Seth Rollins at the Royal Rumble but they are still brothers because Seth himself would've done the same thing. 

 

I think those crowd chants were fake during the Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar segment. Too bad he got handcuffed but it somehow showed that Brock was a little coward becuase he didn't destroy him further when he came back shirtless. All he did was pull that thing Roman was laying on. Looking forward to next week. WWE is trying hard to make Roman the hero and Brock the villain. 

 

I kinda found the John Cena segment pointless and even calling The Undertaker a "coward" didn't get him any crowd pop. Glad Kane is back and next week during their match (Elimination Chamber 2012 Ambulance Match flashback as well Zack Ryder/Eve Torres story if you still remember but this time excluding them), The Undertaker might as well return and Tombstone him in the middle of the ring.

"Hey kids, be like your hero/role model Roman Reigns and assault the cops.  You tooooooootally won't get shot."  If they truly want that guy to be the face of the company they really shoulda thought that out better.

 

Is he supposed to be a role model though ? The guy was suspended so he wasn't even supposed to be here to begin with. Disrespecting your boss decision certainly doesn't look like what a role model would do to me :P 

I don't think they are trying to build him as a babyface like Cena anymore. Reigns is barely able to cut a good promo and get a good pop without swearing or stating the obvious about lazy part timers so I hope WWE realized this by now. If they are not able to make him be cheered like a babyface at the end of Wrestlemania 34 against a guy as despicable as Lesnar for most people, he will never be able to be the babyface they are looking for.

I'm not generally double posting but I think I'll do it just to be able to discuss the fact that Daniel Bryan has been cleared to return to the ring by WWE...

 

Well, a lot of fans asked for it, Daniel asked for it and as far as I'm concerned I'm fine with it because he is a really good in-ring performer so even if I wasn't his biggest fan character wise it was always good to see him in the ring and he was the perfect example of what a babyface should be nowadays. 

I just hope that he will wrestle a safer style to not injure himself once again because he has to think about his personnal future, and he certainly doesn't want to "let down" his fans one more time. 

 

Concerning Wrestlemania I could really well see him team up with Shane McMahon and face K.O and Zayn in a tag team match but I'm not really a fan of this match at all. However, I don't know if their is any other possibility to add him in the WM34 card. What I'd like to see is Daniel Bryan vs The Miz but this isn't going to happen any time soon.

 

Oh, I'll just add that this was a very stupid way to announce his return to the ring, they could have been way smarter with this and actually surprise the fans in a good way ?
