Ok, how long is this show gonna be? Between 7 Title matches, Cena vs HHH, the Rumble, now Taker vs Rusev. We're looking at a 5 hour show here lol I was JUST gonna bring this up too on here. It feels like it's gonna be clearly a 5 hour show, if not longer than that. And it starts at such an awkward time when most probably won't be around to see it live and have to on demand it later on.

Undertaker vs Rusev should be an interesting match. Just seems bizarre not to build it as a story though. A casket math isn't just a random match that should be set up. Neither is any Undertaker match at this stage of his career really.

So is this event noncanon? It’s hard to say really because Brock/Roman is a straight WrestleMania 34 rematch, and the #1 contenders for both RAW and SmackDown tag titles are/have been determined on their respective shows. But last night we saw Randy Orton become #1 contender for the U.S title at Backlash which is a week after this which makes me wonder why didn’t they just announce the match for Great Royal Rumble? Not to mention we don’t know what the winner of the 50 man Royal Rumble will get yet, it’s just mind boggling atm 🤔 I’m just looking at this as one big glorified house show tbh.

Also Samoa Joe was randomly added to the IC title rematch and Triple H is facing John Cena in a WM22 rewind match and then Rusev is facing Undertaker in a casket match for zero reason. It’s like they just put the current roster into Universe Mode on 2k18 and made the card through that

Feuding with Joe or Lesnar? Lmfao at the 2K18 Universe Mode comment though, it would be hilarious if that’s what they did 😂

I live look-in at the Jericho vs Taker pre match press conference: ***UPDATE*** Chris Jericho will replace Rusev in the casket match against The Undertaker. That’s either good news or bad news. It's really bad. Rusev said he was going to crush Undertaker's old ass and Michelle McCool cried about it on Twitter. This is the world we live in 2018. WWE has the nut sack to go perform in a piece of trash country like Saudi Arabia but when a wrestler trying to hype a fake fight (that he's going to lose) cuts a promo in character, we can't stand for that...

I think it's going to be a little odd after all this time, that there's no womens matches...

"All females must have a male guardian, and are forbidden from traveling, conducting official business, or undergoing certain medical procedures." The WWE are respecting their traditions.
