The first time I saw Dean Ambrose in the ring I thought they let some fan in to wrestle with the all stars. Apparently he's one of their biggest stars. Who knew? His signature moves are annoying. The clothesline, top rope elbow, and the little hop onto the opposite turnbuckle are all super awkward. He's one guy I'm sick of. I'm tired of the choreographed shit on the mic. The dudes with the trumpets, Enzo and Cass, etc... It is the cringiest shit I've ever seen, especially when the entire crowd chants along.

I loved Enzo when he first appeared. The Smack Talker Skywalker stuff was gold. Now they just repeat the catch phrases.

I'm sure it was fun the first 100 times. But it's like a 2 minute segment of the same shit. Why don't they just read a poem?

I thought it was one of the better Mania's in recent memory, but there were some shit booking decisions that didn't make sense. Why did Wyatt have to lose again? Also, there is no saving Reigns now.

Reigns winning was a given. Taker has been running on empty for the past few years. He should have retired after the loss the Brock.
Speaking of Lesnar.. I was impressed with his match with Goldberg. I thought it was much better than the WM 20 match and anything beats that SS POS crap.
Sasha Banks should have won tonight. I don't understand why they won't let her have a decent title run...Sadly we are stuck with the female version of Cena for the moment.
Speaking of Cena.... That was a rip off of the Macho Man Liz moment.
Triple H should have beat Rollins. That's all I'm going to say on that one.
Owns - Jericho match was decent
Shane and AJ was really good IMO
Baron Corbin should have beat Ambrose... that balled got dropped big time.
The biggest WTF... Why did Orton have to win the WWE title?
Over all I say this years WM was pretty good....better than last year.

The biggest WTF... Why did Orton have to win the WWE title? Agreed. And then it was only a pretty lackluster 10 minute match. That should have been one of the matches of the night.

I can't understand what the crowd is chanting at 3:30.
I can never understand what the modern crowd is chanting, anymore.

Forget Reigns. You're gonna be a huge Nakamura mark. You can feel him in the jimmies.

Jason,
The company's most pushed "Babyface" wrestler shouldn't be in this position. It's to the point where it's go away heat literally. This 3 year+ push isn't gonna stop either and nothing they do works in this guys favor. Next Mania is Lesnar Vs Reigns, Mania after that is most likely Cena Vs Reigns and it'll just keep on going until Reigns headlines every Mania from this point on.
It's a failed science experiment that the teacher gave an F, but will change their grade if they take some pointers to make it better, except the student doesn't listen and just keeps being adamant about it being fine the way it is.
It's like pushing a boulder up a steep hill. You can keep pushing, but eventually it'll roll back and crush you.
They won't change a damn thing about Reigns, they'll still keep him a "Babyface" and call him an Underdog. That's the thing that pisses people off, just turn him heel. Daniel Bryan is a true Underdog. Hell, Sami Zayn can be considered one as well. Reigns has no right being considered an underdog from this point forward.

They need to make him a heel. I mean, Jesus. The guy is the most hated guy on the roster, clearly. Every move he makes rustles jimmies. Picks up mic? Rustles jimmies. Says one word? Rustles jimmies. Scratch his arm? Rustlin' jimmies. If I were a die hard and the push was obvious, I would probably be annoyed, too. But I only occasionally tune in, and while I'm extremely underwhelmed by the whole of WWE today, he still seems like one of the best guys on the roster. And an actual convincing wrestler. The Enzo and Cass storytime segment that lasts 5 minutes with not a word ever changing is worse than Reigns. Dean Ambrose looks like a dork they pulled from the stands. The tag team dudes with the trumpets might be the cringiest shit in WWE history, 2nd only to Enzo and Cass and their scripted "u can't. teach. dat" segment every night that never changes. As far as new wrestlers that came around after I stopped watching... Kevin Owens is awesome. Seth Rollins is cool. Reigns certainly seems cool. And those guys can actually wrestle fairly well. Another HUGE reason why I love it when I see Reigns pissing off fans in the arena is because this generation of fans is the worst that WWE has ever seen, by far. They're incoherent with their weird chants and everyone's always on their phones and shit. Nobody's on the phone when Reigns is in the building. Because the entire audience's jimmies are all in a twist. I can't relate to the modern audience at all, which is why I dig it when Reigns pisses them off. My legitimate favorite thing about wrestling today is when the audience throws a fit.

The only way Reigsn becomes the true face of the company is if or when he beats John Cena. Cena is still the top guy in the company (part time status or not) and they've kept the two apart since Reigns push began for a reason.
I agree with Havok, He's no longer an underdog after his victory over The Undertaker. I'm expecting Reigns vs. Lesnar at Summerslam with a Reigns victory. WM 34 will probably be Reigns vs. Cena.
Auska needs to be brought up to the main roster. I think she would make a great impact on either brand but I'd like to see her on Smackdown. Sam with Sasha Banks
The Raw women's divison has been built around Charlotte and that's not going to change. (I doubt she moves to Smackdown). Bailey is obviously in the B level spot and the female version of Cena. It's a bad news for Sasha whom in my opinion is the better talent. She's going nowhere on Raw, a move to smackdown would do her good and help improve the smackdown roster. Becky Lynch, Alexa, Naomi and even Nikki Bella don't equal the drawing power of Charlotte, Sasha Banks and Bailey. Smackdown needs some big star power for their Women's roster and Banks could help fill that void and if they add Auska to that roster it would rival Raw's division.
As for the WWE championship scene, I still don't get the point of Randy getting another title run. It's just as bad as Cena getting that short run just so he could tie Ric Flair's record. Fucking Bullshit.

Has Cena really emerged as one of WWE's biggest stars ever? He'll always be that cringey Eminem wannabe to me. I liked him back when I used to watch wrestling.

Yeah, he's probably on the second tier with the likes of Taker and HBK and shiz, just outside Hogan, Austin and the Rock.
