That's 10 matches for a 4 hour show, i can see a lot of time being cut from some of them and the tag titles being added to the preshow like last year

Need extra time? Cut that Divas match.

they will probably put the Tag team title match on the pre-show (which is stupid, but it's wwe) the women's match won't be long. And the fatal 4 way will probably only be 8 to 10 mins long.

No Daniel Bryan?

^IC title match.

Oh true. I didn't see that. Wouldn't make more sense to just have him win the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal? It would send the fans home happy or at least lighten up the mood before Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns.

This is why you shouldnt book WWE shows

DB in a 5-way IC title match? Really?

they will probably add sheamus to make it a 6 man ladder match for the IC title.

So two of the biggest stars in WWE right now will be competing for midcard titles no one cares about?

Brilliant idea.

I at least give WWE for trying to make them relevant. But it's more then just who is holding the titles. The midcard champions should always be in big time feud and storylines. They are freaking champions and she be presented as such. Not win the title and become everyones jobber bitch.

A 6-way ladder match with those names in it would be pretty great to watch tbh. So at least there's that.

I didn't notice Bryan in the IC Title match. That's...just asking for the fans to boo

Roman Reigns should be challenging for the Intercontinental championship and Ambrose and Bryan should be in ghe main event. Reigns is not even comparable to Ambrose. Ambrose has main event experience before the Rumble against Rollins and Wyatt, he's over with the fans, he's better on the mic, he's a better wrestler, he can tell a better story, he had the best feud of 2014, he was the only good thing in WWE ever since the Shield broke up. Why not give Ambrose the main event spot against Brock Lesnar, go back and fourth on the mic with Paul Heyman which would be fucking amazing to see, then have Ambrose beat Lesnar in an awesome no disqualification match, Ambrose becomes the new WWE world heavyweight champion. Remember when Ambrose told Rollins after MITB and told him "I'm gonna make sure you never cash in it because I'm always gonna stop you every time" or something like that? Well, how fitting you it be to have Rollins cash in on Dean Ambrose (the only way he can cash in his contract without always being attacked by Ambrose, is to cash in on Ambrose! Brilliant!) after a hard fought match up against Brock Lesnar. It would add more heat to the feud of Ambrose - Rollins because Ambrose never pinned Rollins and that would be the ultimate insult to win the wwe world title and lose it immediately to the guy who stabbed you in the back. As for Reigns, he could've had his feud with Barrett and win his first singles championehip, the IC title. Ambrose was US champ for 351 days, the next step in his solo career should be the WWE world title, Reigns was tag team champion, the next step in his career should be his first singles title and it should be either the US or IC title to build himself a fanbase, popularity and earn respect for his work and not his fucking looks.

The IC was once the work horse title

See, Luigi, usually I find your wrestling comments to be stupid. Why can't you make more sensible posts like this one? That was actually very good.

the best thing Daniel Bryan and Dean Ambrose can do is make this match steal the show. If you can't be the main event, make your match more talked about then the main event.

^ What's the point in doing that when Vince is just gonna be all "HURR DURR I DONT CARE WHO'S TALENTED OR THE FANS LIKE, I PUSH WHO I WANT LOL."

giving your supports a damn good match?

The Ladder Match is gonna be better than the main event anyway, regardless of who Vince McMahon wants to push.

^^ I know, my point is, how are wrestlers going to be motivated to give a shit when Vince doesn't? Why do your best to put on an amazing match if Vince is just gonna go and be like "lol I don't care, make them job to Big Show" next week?

Last year Vince fucked with Daniel Bryan's moment. He had Brock end Taker's streak. The next day more people talked about Brock beating Taker then Daniel Bryan beating Triple H, Orton, and Batista all in the same night. This year Daniel Bryan can fuck with Vince McMahon's main event. He can be like you fucked with my moment last year, you are not giving me another main event then fine. My match will be match of the night. The next day people will be talking about my match more then Reigns vs Brock.

Thing is Bryan Danielson and Dean Ambrose aren't main event draws.

Of course WWE booked both of them like shit. But it's easier to just blame the talent and not creative.

If internet fans were in charge of booking WM they'd be out of ideas in 4 years.

Seriously, the anger from "smarks" over Reigns vs Lesnar happening is ridiculous. They have potentially one shot to have a Reigns/Lesnar match so it'd be dumb to pass up on it... this is the match they've built up to all year / possibly the main reason why they ended the streak / etc. etc. etc. and people want them to not go through with it?

Making it a triple threat yet again with the addition of Bryan again would have been one of the worst things to do. They'd basically be burying Reigns because all the attention and support would be going to DB.

Most importantly, the very best don't have to be in the World title match every year. Dean Ambrose should NOT be in the World title match yet. Honestly, (and as a huge fan of Ambrose) I think he could go years before main eventing WrestleMania and he'd be fine. And DB will live through this.

I know most will disagree but I just think so many people are so stubborn over this.
