Aside from the tag title match and Bayley/Charlotte (only because we've seen that one forty-seven times already), it's a pretty good card. I don't have high hopes for the main event, but maybe Owens can make something happen. He's one of the best in-ring guys in the WWE right now, probably third behind Styles and Zayn.

I'm guessing Joe/Zayn or Gallagher/Neville will end up being the match of the night.

All I know is if they have Goldberg squash Owens I'm going to be watching SD exclusively from here until the night after Mania.

I'll be at this so I'm pretty excited for it. Look for the family in the suite level with a bunch of signs that spell out "IF KO LOSES WE RIOT".

I'd be lying if a small part of me didn't want to see the Orlando crowd sh*t all over a Universal Title match main event between Lesnar & Goldberg. It'd be hilarious if they got the exact same reaction they got the last time they faced off at 'Mania. :lol:

Raw Tag: Gallows and Anderson (c) vs. Enzo and Cass

Sami Zayn vs. Samoa Joe

Braun Strowman vs. Roman Reigns - Undertaker gets involved setting up the match with Roman for WM.

Nia Jax vs. Sasha Banks - Double Countout/DQ finish.

Raw Women's: Bayley (c) vs. Charlotte

Universal: Kevin Owens (c) vs. Goldberg - Unless Brock or Jericho get involved, there's no logical way you can have Owens win when you just had Goldberg beat Brock in a minute and a half.

Pretty decent card besides Nia/Sasha and the Cruiserweight matches.

Not looking forward to Gallagher/Neville? I think that has a pretty good shot of being the best match of the night. If I had to guess, it'd be between that and Zayn/Joe (mostly because of Zayn).

I don't watch 205 Live and I fast forward cruiserweight segments on Raw. Yeah Gallagher/Neville could be a good match, but I just don't care about the cruiserweights. The division has been awful ever since it went to Raw. Should've just went straight to 205 Live after the CWC.

that's a shame. you'd learn how to become a gentleman if you did.

Goldberg squashing Owens in like 20 seconds would be hilarious!

1 Akira Tozawa and Rich Swann vs. The Brian Kendrick and Noam Dar
2 Kevin Owens (c) vs. Goldberg
3 Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman
4 Neville (c) vs. Jack Gallagher
5 Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson (c) vs. Enzo Amore and Big Cass
6 Bayley (c) vs. Charlotte Flair
7 Sasha Banks vs. Nia Jax
8 Sami Zayn vs. Samoa Joe

If Owens survives more than 2 minutes that would be great.

This could either be really good, or really really catastrophically bad (leaning towards the latter cause fast lane).

On the womans side, they may end up having Charlotte vs Sasha for the 5 millionth time (though Charlotte, Sasha and Bayley in a triple threat would be great).

Gallows & Anderson, i'm sure their will be shenanigans

Spoiler:

Neville is going to murder Gallagher i am pretty sure.

Reigns v Strowman. Well i think Roman can carry Strowman but i think they'll play up Roman the Underdog which is ridiculous. Either way he'll win and he'll face taker at mania

Tozawa i think will get the win on what will end up being the pre-show match. I think he pins Kendrick also. Pretty sure they're going to go big with him. He's super popular so that should bode well for him.

205 Live struggled out of the gate, and the cruisers definitely don't get enough time on Raw (especially given how long Raw is and how filled with crap it tends to be), but it's been picking up lately. Neville has been a great heel. Gallagher is one of the more fun guys to watch on the roster. Tozawa is already more over than I thought he'd be and likely to be in line for a push soon. Aries is about to return from injury. Metalik hasn't had a chance to do much yet, but he was one of the highlights of the CWC and I have hopes that he'll get a chance to show why on 205 Live. Cedric Alexander has just been consistently good.

It's definitely a division on the rise now.

Plus, I definitely expect Neville/Gallagher to be one of the three best matches tomorrow night, provided it gets enough time.

Completely forgot about this PPV the build up has been kind of crappy the last few weeks...

Only 2.5 matches I'm interested in...

They better have Jericho interfere and cost KO the tittle instead of him looking like a schmuck.

Prince12 · Post #15 » by **Prince12** » Mon Mar 6, 2017 12:48 am

Giving this a go. Don't watch much current we outside of the big ppv's and after the rumble i swore i wouldn't but oh well.

I think the CW division is like a sports team that for the first 1/4 or 1/3 of the season is absolutely terrible and then they start playing better but they may have dug themselves too much of a hole to dig themselves out of.

I think they've got the right champion now and are spotlighting the right guys but I think a not insignificant portion of the fanbase gave it a shot, decided it wasn't for them and have since tuned out.

I could watch a Rich Swann/Tazowa tag team

A snap german followed by a phoenix splash would be such a great finisher

Neville and Aries are too good for the Cruiserweight division, but not good enough to elevate it. Other than them and the occasional Sir Jack bit it's all kind of blah.

So guessing you didn't get tickets in the end?
