The man was just meant to be a Heel. I thought the chance to turn him heel was done when he recovered from cancer. Glad he proved me wrong.

Even despite the final explosion botch the 2 main matches from yesterday's AEW Revolution show exactly why AEW should be ahead of WWE, in WWE such matches would never take place. Both Jon Moxley vs Kenny Omega and Sting/Darby Allin vs Team Taz kicked asses.

Roman has looked better in the last year, than he has ever in his WWE career, You can't argue with it.

The crowd has always hated him, but know that actually works in his favor.

The only issue is he has to remain a heel. If they ever try to make his a face again, nobody will take Roman seriously.

Roman I think is in a weird position when it comes to crowd reaction, in that there is no crowd really. Once live crowds come back, he might actually start getting cheers cuz the heel turn has been such a long awaited thing, so then they may think he has to turn face again. I know it took ages for them to give in and make him a heel, but my worry is they might get positive reactions and be like "oh, we were right, turn him back to a face like we wanted".

I think a face Roman could potentially work, but the face they tried to make him beforehand was a goofy, John Cena type guy. His look, in ring style, move set, none of it really works for the Cena type guy they initially wanted. I think it would be better if he stayed arrogant and was more of an "edgy" babyface, basically just ease up on the manipulative side of his current heel character and work with that. I think he'll be better as a heel, but if he does end up turning face (everyone in WWE gets like a dozen face/heel turns during their career), I think they just need to approach it from a better angle

I enjoyed those matches, plus that the mysterious new recruit is Christian. The next question is, will Edge be far behind? Will they become a tag team once again? Stranger things have happened.

Agreed 100% tho I don't think they'll be turning him face anytime soon only because we know Roman vs Rock has been billed as a "Dream Match" for a while now but storywise it's never made sense due Roman's face booking. If ever Rocky returns no fking way he'll be Heel in that match. If Rocky ever does it they'll want it to be with a live crowd. I could see Roman's Heel run last at the very least until next year's Wrestlemania; maybe 2023 if it gets to that.

I could honestly live with him staying a heel for as long as that, I've always felt he works better that way. I almost wish the Rock match was coming at this Wrestlemania but it's too late for that I think, that's the type of match that would be better being announced months in advance, kinda like the Cena vs Rock thing (though maybe not a full year, keep that part special).

It would tie in so well to the current story he has of being recognized and acknowledged as the head of his family, with Rock being his last obstacle in achieving that. I just fear the momentum of that storyline will have fizzed out by next year. Will still be a good match and a good story, just think the timing would have been better for this year. Then again, I don't know much about behind the scenes stuff so Rock is likely busy or something lol

Not so sure about Edge, maybe after Wrestlemania but he's always been treated well in WWE so I don't see why he would join AEW. But then again, I had no clue about the Big Show (Paul Wight now I guess lol) signing, so might not be off the table exactly

I was so gutted for them when the final explosion went off. Especially poor Kingston who had to sell it and all. It was such a good match and if I had put myself through barbed wire for my art, I would have been pretty pissed off at that ending lol

Now that AEW is winning the ratings war, it opens the doors to many different opportunities. The door is open if Edge wants to come over in the future. Wrestling will be here before you know it. If Edge doesn't like the results, he can always just part ways with the WWE.

AEW this Wednesday is setting up lots of great events. Christian Cage had a stare down with current Heavyweight champion Kenny Omega.

Cody Rhodes was challenged by the luchadore Penta Zero.

Big Money Matt Hardy just signed The Butcher and the Blade. He is going to set up a match against the Dark Order.

The most shocking event of the night was all about the Inner Circle. Sammy not only returned, but also proved that MJF was trying to take over. This did not work, and Chris Jericho kicked MJF out. MJF begged for mercy, but than introduced his new team, FTR, Tully Blanchard, Shawn Spears, and Wardlow.

Will the Inner Circle be able to defeat this new team?

Raw was disappointing yet again. More uninspired attempts at action and boring writing. The Miz had his rematch and was defeated quickly by Drew. It could of had some plot to it, but it did not. Shane McMahon continued to call Strowman " stupid. " It is pretty much the same plot line they had 20 years ago, when Shane continued to call The Big Show stupid. I think Strowman vs. McMahon is quickly becoming the worst thing going on RAW.

We have new Raw Tag Team Champions, The New Day. This is the 11th Tag Team Championship reign for The New Day. Which just shows the lack of talent on RAW.

Shane defeated Strowman tonight, After winning the match he poured green slime on him. Another very stupid thing to do.

RAW has been losing viewers and tonight's episode did not help at all.

I'm hoping that the plan is that Stowman beats Shane at Fastlane, gets that out of the way, and then gets moved to some other feud for Wrestlemania

Not entirely sure what the motivation was to give New Day the tag titles, I can only assume they'll lose them at Mania. But that gives the rest of Hurt Business pretty much nothing to do, thought they'd be given a bigger role to play with Lashley being champion

That would be nice if this stupid idea disappears quickly.

The New Day have had the Tag Titles so long, and so many times, it is really getting stale. I was hoping they were going to split up several times, but it still has not happened.

I found it today, this is what happens when the ring really "explodes" (I still got AEW botch in mind); Japan takes no prisoners:

To be fair, not much has really been happening with the tag titles in a while. The New Day are an established and reliable name who can make whoever beats them look good. In this case, that's AJ and Amos.

I do agree though, they should let New Day phase out a bit. I don't think they should completely disband, just let them have some kind of singles run. Kinda like what they're doing with Big E on Smakdown. Kofi has already proven to be a great singles wrestler and it'd be nice to give Woods a chance since he's usually been relegated to just the tag team division, despite being good in his own right

That looks insane! It'd have been great if that's what we got. At least the match itself was good

I could see that happening. AJ an Amos should keep them for at least three months if not longer. Give them time to develop a good working dynamic.

When the Usos finally broke up, I was very happy. I was so tired of them just as tag teams for years and years. The New Day should brake up as well. If anything, I would enjoy watching them start feuding with each other. Just like the Shield did after they broke up.

Japan has been keeping it real for years.

AEW did mess it up, but at least they tried something interesting and exciting. Unlike, WWE who have been out of ideas for decades.

I don't remember WWE ever going THAT far with a women's match. Take note, that these are REGULAR tacks that can really hurt, not shortened, safer version of them like the ones WWE was often using.

That was an awesome match, especially for a women's match. If they do more like that, I might actually be a bigger fan of the women's division.

Smackdown was another lame episode. The main event was Daniel Bella against Roman Reigns. The match ended with Bella hitting Edge with a chair. That set up Edge to attack them both. So, Reigns barely won again, and Bella did not get him to tap out.

The next main event will now be a triple treat match Reigns vs. Bella vs. Edge.

Now this looks interesting, as far as I know Broken Skull is a WWE brand and WWF/WWE never allowed any information regarding their main competition, like WCW or TNA (at some point) to be even mentioned during their programs:

Chris Jericho has been a big star for the WWE in the past. Maybe he will only be allowed to talk about his past exploits, or maybe give his thoughts about the upcoming Wrestlemania matches?

Well WWE Network dropped and moved to Peacock.

Peacock's service costs $9.99 without ads, but will then cost you $19.96 later on if I read that correctly.

I don't understand why WWE did this, they were up so many new users past October.

I wonder if they make a straight up deal, or if they got a percentage from any new subscribers, or both?

In AEW, Chris Jericho lead the Inner Circle to get payback on the Pinnacle. Jericho shoved MJF's head into the toilet, and then shoved his head through the Pepsi machine cooler. We can only imagine what happens next.

In WWE news, Wrestlemania is this weekend. The card is not that great, and many are complaining about Bad Bunny, the singer, being on the advertisement poster. I will watch it and let you know my thoughts. Somebody, has to keep this club updated with the Wrestling info.

I'm still catching up on AEW stuff but I was surprised that MJF made his own stable. The way the story was going, I assumed he would have dethroned Jericho and taken over the Inner Circle himself. Suppose it's something unexpected though, which I can appreciate.

I think the card for Mania looks pretty good match wise, just had one of the worst build ups in years (although I personally have liked some, like the Big E/Apollo Crews feud). Also doesn't feel like any particular match is all that big, unless they have some big return planned or something. The only one that comes to mind is maybe the Triple Threat for the Universal title.

As for Bunny, I usually am not a fan of celebrity involvement. But fair play to him if he's actually planning on wrestling and not just hitting a frog splash or something at the end. It's also great for Damian Priest, getting put in such a high profile match, so it'll hopefully end up well.

WM night 1 was pretty solid.

Cesaro vs Rollins was MOTN and while I thought the main event should've been either

Styles & Omos vs New Day

or Lashley vs MacIntyre

it's understandable that they went with Banks vs Belair since they wanted to send the fans home happy.

This does make me think Roman will be retaining on Night 2 so they balance it out by having a Face victory on night 1 and Heel victory on night 2 but the reaction is gonna be great regardless. Also no one else is on Roman's level character-wise right now so he does deserve it.

Seeing fans approved in the arena I think they'll be entertaining the idea of Rocky-Roman WM38 Main Event now.

Just finished Wrestlemania night 1

It was pretty good, most of the matches I've been looking forward to are night 2 but I still enjoyed it nonetheless.

I thought the opening match was fine, was surprised at the result. I think it would have been better if they let Bobby be Bobby. It seems when he's with Drew, they have to do traditional heel shenanigans which doesn't really suit his character, just let him be a monster.

Cesaro and Rollins was the best match by far, loved every minute of it and loved the energy. Hoping there are big things on the horizon for Cesaro.

RIP to Shane McMahon's spine, that cage bump looked nasty lol. Decent match considering the weird buildup (tho that goes for every match lol).

Also, mad props to Bad Bunny. I'm always skeptical of celebrity involvement but he actually did extremely well, especially considering how he's only been training a few months or so. Logan Paul has a tough act to follow lol

Overall, night 1 was really decent. I'm expecting Night 2 to be even better, for me at least cuz all the matches I've been looking forward to are there (Big E/Crews, Sami/Owens, the triple threat main event).

I wasn't really sure about the Belair/Banks match being the main event, only cuz the buildup was my least favourite this year. Though to be fair, winning the rumble should always mean you main event the show and the match itself was great, so it deserves the spot.

The triple threat is the match I'm most hyped for. Every match so far, I can somewhat see what result they're going for (though I've been wrong before), but I'm really at a loss for who's winning that match. I'm assuming Reigns will lose, cuz Triple Threat matches mean he can still look strong and not eat a pin. But like you say, he's got the best character on the roster, so letting him retain would be great too.
