I don't care how long he sticks around for, just nice to see Shane back in WWE again. Always felt he was severely underrated for the way he took part in storylines, ditto Vince. Some of the bumps Shane took back in 2000/2001 must have hurt lots, but he has never bitched and whined about it.
Had to agree with the crowd, both HOLY SHIT and THIS IS AWESOME!

There has been a lot of chatter on social media this afternoon over a Ticketmaster listing for the upcoming WWE Monday Night RAW on Monday, May 23rd in Baltimore, MD. The title of the event originally read "Monday Night RAW Vs. WWE", which led some people to believe that it had something to do with the Shane McMahon - Undertaker match at WrestleMania.
It was actually just a typo, and it's happened before for RAW events in Baltimore. The listing has been fixed to just read "WWE Monday Night RAW".

All the Mania matches so far all have good guys fighting each other, no heels in sight. Everybody wanted HHH to continue the beating so makes him a good guy.
Roman just sucks in mostly every way. He barely changed his gear, kept a modified Shield theme and still does the entrance so he's hogging all of that glory. He can't cut a promo convincingly, always looks like he's struggling in some degree and he comes across as a heel with that voice delivery. His facial expressions are atrociously bad and ooze fake. His move set is almost as limited as Braun or Brawn, whatever the fuck. He's for the casual viewers who are barely watching anymore because they don't want to sit through three hours. Someone has to replace Shane, no one is buying it. Wouldn't surprise me if they put Cena in there even if he isn't ready. |

Yeah, seems to be the consesnus that Shane won't be in the HIAC match. Thing is, I don't think HIAC is the right match now for Taker. Even taking out the PG crap, he is so battered that there is zero chance for any bumps on top of or from the top of the cell. Hell, I bet only time he is outside the ring will be going in and going out.
Card so far: Triple H (c) v Roman Reigns (expecting some stipulation to be added here) Undertaker v Shane McMahon (HIAC match, Shane gets RAW if he wins) Dean Ambrose v Brock Lesnar (No Holds Barred) Charlotte (c) v Becky or Sasha (Divas title)

Vince might eventually have to put himself in the match and it might be a tornado tag HIAC. Vince picks Strowman probably but all the Wyatts get involved somehow, no idea how you structure that match though. Shane vs. Undertaker is just too weird by itself, not saying it wouldn't be any good though but the cell matches aren't very pleasing anymore and I doubt Shane will want to be flying around like Foley anymore but I do kind of expect that from him lol. The Rikishi bump onto some card boxes or something and while the Wyatts are busy doing that Vince gets tombstoned and loses.

ShaneOMac vs Undertaker one on one not gonna happen. I guarantee it.
In the video below, The New Day parody the chain of command in The League of Nations. New Day have fought every other tag team and won...I think. I wouldn't mind if Rusev and Sheamus or BNB won the tag team championships.

I think the problem with Roman is that everything about him is screaming for a heel turn, but Vince just won't do it. It would be like if he never turned the Rock heel when people were chanting "die Rocky die." You have to be heel first in order to get love as a babyface if people hate you that much. As for Shane, I know some people are excited about it but I think it would be a terrible idea to have him in there with Taker. I never really cared for Shane even in his heyday. Yeah he took crazy bumps but so what? Let him go be a stuntman, I want to see actual wrestling. Two guys around the age of 50, one wrestles one or 2 times a year and one hasn't wrestled in probably 10 years. In a Hell in a Cell. That's either going to be an awful match or an accident waiting to happen. If they keep it the way it is, either Taker loses to someone he has no business whatsoever losing to near the end of his career, or Shane loses and the storyline goes nowhere. Is Sting healthy yet? I'd rather see him face Taker than Cena. I actually came on here to post the exact same thing. Funniest thing I've seen in a long time. I especially love the second one, where Xavier's expression changes from smug to worried as soon as the big rooster Sheamus enters the scene. These guys are absolutely hilarious. And their accents are so terrible they're good. |

I haven't seen much improvement in Roman, maybe I'm oblivious to it, seems he has stayed the same and I'm tired of it and I can't take any of that criticism back, it's how I perceive him. Except I know he's not as bad as Braun though, that was a bit much. He needs a complete refresh, new music, look and entrance and learn some new moves ffs. I'm bored of hearing Cole sell the superman punch like it's greatest move ever. It's the only way to remove the forced stench and give him a new chance because staying like this he's screwed. He obviously won't turn heel and the fans won't change their stance.
