Sell me on this because I'm just not seeing it at the moment.

Less than 2 months before WM it's not hard to not anticipate and be excited about that.

No build whatsoever.

They haven't really bothered building anything yet outside of Rousey/Lynch/Charlotte.

While it'll be decent to good because of the two involved, the match that will blow the roof off the arena is going to be Kofi v Bryan if Kofi wins.
Kobe Bryant was asked who he feels is the toughest opponent to guard in the NBA. Instead of picking OKC's Kevin Durant, Bryant went with Portland’s Brandon Roy.

Kofi is definitely getting the title win at WrestleMania now, no way that isn't the payoff. Also really like that they didn't bring KO back as a face.

Looks like Kofi made them switch their plans.

Yea we've seen WWE booking eff up a lot of things, but hopefully this is them being smart in finding a perfect way to hold off on Kofi-Bryan till Mania. Zero sense having that match on a B ppv that nobody cares about.

I remember back in 2014 wwe screwed the pooch on that big time when they had the Shield vs the Wyatt family go mid-card at elimination chamber. That should've been a wrestlemania semi-main event match

Yeah, it definitely looks like we're going to get Kofi v Bryan at WM, which is what should have happened. Kofi is going to be the top baby face on SmackDown, if he isn't already.

I loved the KO return, he got a huge pop but to tell you how much the fans want Kofi, after they stopped playing KO's music, the crowd erupted with Kofi chants. The tag match at the end was strange though because after KO got the win, he was sort of acknowledging Kofi in a positive way, like he felt bad he just took his title shot when in my book, he should have been the opposite, not remorseful at all.

What are they going to do with AJ at WM?

Truth v Andrade v Rey wasn't too bad, I caught the end of it because I was putting the kids to bed, but it looked fun. I missed his promo in the beginning too.

Charlotte is awesome, no way to say otherwise. She's the total package.

Why are you blaming Asuka for Road Dogg not being able to book.

I've never found Asuka interesting, women's division is better off without her
