Wrestlemania 31 Thread - Page 5 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

The fans at the HOF certainly sounded ready to boo the hell out of Reigns. Rikishi had them on a roll with the various family members that he would cue them to cheer, and they cheered for all of them until he said Reigns's name and caused heavy booing.

I gather from the ensuing "Umanga" chant that the HOF crowd might have more overlap with the post-WM Raw crowd than the WM crowd, but still.

fixed

WM 15 is one of the worst Manias ever IMO, switch to nearly anything else. If you want something from that timeframe, WM 14 is significantly better than 15.

30 is a great choice though if you haven't seen it, enjoy.

Considering only 2 matches on this card actually have the remotest chance of being any good and the rest range from **** with no hope to **** with no hope plus an infuriating ending, I wouldn't prepare for this WM by watching an actually good WM

Meh, in a vacuum from a pure ringwork standpoint the only one to me that is a true lock to suck is Taker/Wyatt.

Lesnar/Reigns is at least intriguing now because we legitimately don't know the ending since Brock re-signed, and they could go a lot of different directions with the story.

3/1 on Sheamus is good value.

It's a lock to have a bunch of really dumb over-the-top "psychology" or "mind games," which is something I'm not a big fan of in matches. I'm expecting it to be the worst match by a lot.

Think it's going to be extremely difficult for that to be a good match.

Granted that it's not Great Khali fighting in a Punjabi Prison or whatever, but my expectations are very low.

Seems a bit odd to me

208 for lower bowl middle section tv side for raw, row 6 i think. 250 for 3rd deck in the corner for WM

Raw after Wrestlemania should be an amazing experience. I'm jealous.

Good call on selling the WM tickets imo.

But the choice isn't WM vs Raw, it's WM vs 250 dollars.

No matter how ****ty I think this event will be, I'm still pumped for it. Probably due to the fact a) there's a Lesnar match and b) the result is in jeopardy. Going to just play poker with it on the side until the main event though.
