Since this is now being pushed as a quasi-ppv event I figured I'd go ahead and make a thread to discuss it. The card so far looks pretty damn good. Will update as more matches are added.

Hunter Hearst Helmsley vs. Jon Moxley (WWE Championship)

Bork Laser vs. Husky Harris

The Mechanix vs. The How You Doin's's

League of Booty vs. The "Clap for your world famous 2x champs and feel the power"s

Anyone know if this is going to be live on the 12th? I read before they might tape it with a different crew the same day as Smackdown. That would suck because I'm going to Smackdown and don't want to miss Ambrose or Wyatt.

It's supposed to be live from Canada at 8pm est

Bork Laser, lol. Sounds like an American Gladiator.

The matches look better than what Wrestlemania has announced :-?

Gotta figure they put in this Roadblock (so to speak) in order to set up something very important for Rasslmania - something to get us hyped up for it.

You might figure that, but this is the WWE...

Back when WWE started cracking down on people uploading clips to youtube, people started uploading the videos with weird names (Bork Laser, Crispen Wah, etc.) to hide them from WWE. That's the origin story.

Would love to see something crazy happen like Bray Wyatt and Ambrose win.

Added the 4th match. Card is starting to round out. It's only supposed to be a 2-2.5 hour show so we probably will only get 1, maybe 2 more matches added to this. I'd like see another NXT match added.

I'm going to this event tomorrow and it's gonna be my first WWE show I've attended in person in 10 years
Unforgiven 2006.

Strange that this is in a small arena where a minor hockey league team plays and maybe seats 5,000-8,000 and not the
ACC arena where the Raptors and Leafs play and where WWE held SummerSlam 2004 and Unforgiven 2006 in the past.

The WWE has blacklisted "Bizzaro Land" for sometime now...We barely get RAW and Smackdown anymore which is
strange since Toronto has had 2 Wrestlemanias in the past, been a staple city for the WWE since the 60's and the 3rd
biggest city in the U.S./Canada.

I seriously don't know what to expect... during the Attitude/Ruthless Aggression era we were a notorious heel town
that was full of smart marks that could hold a show hostage...

So I have no idea what to expect from the crowd tomorrow but I feel we need to make some kind of impact to get
TV again and not be reduced to house shows like we're some small town in but **** Idaho.

As for the card I'm disappointed there is only 4 matches announced so far and I'm jealous that the Atlantic City house
show gets a 30 minute Kevin Owens vs. AJ Styles Iron man match.

What do you think would happen if Bray and Dean win?

I'd like to see:
- Trips gets his rematch but considering Reigns is scheduled for a title shot, match becomes a triple threat. Ambrose wins.

What's next then?
Crack between Dean and Roman. Trips takes notice of Reign's potential during their match and considers him as the new Authority figure. This sets up a long feud between Reigns and Ambrose and an eventual Shield Triple Threat with a face Rollins.

- Lesnar winning makes Brock so pissed and doesn't care about Dean anymore and wants to get back at Wyatt under the same stipulation. This gives continuity from the Wyatt attack before. We get a great match and in the end, the whole family interferes and lays out Brock, keeping him out of action.

Then?
Establish the family. Give them gold, especially the World Title. Dean-Reigns feud can continue even without the belt. Give the tag titles to Harper and Rowan. After winning the titles from New Day, Enzo and Cass chase the title from The Family. Then Braun wins the US belt from Kalisto.

I honestly think they still don't know what they're doing with the title match, and there's a good chance there is some convoluted scrum for the belt involving all of H, Dean, Roman, and Brock.

I'll be there too. Also, I saw a thread on Reddit warning that the show is actually starting at 7 (doors at 6), despite what's printed on the Ticketmaster site.

Thanks for the heads up I just texted my friend who I'm going with that info

Also Charlotte vs Natalya was announced on Twitter.

I've heard about one other match but I don't know if it qualifies as a spoiler. Also not sure how reliable the source was so grain of salt:

Wyatt should win along with Ambrose tonight. HHH is entitled to his rematch while Reigns is already guaranteed the WM main event. Lesnar is already signed on to fight Ambrose at WM but Wyatt also has a strong claim since he just beat Lesnar at Roadblock. Only way to settle this is in the ELIMINATION CHAMBER at Wrestle Mania.
