Outside Moss somehow getting a ppv match, this card is insanely good. Should be a fun show. Still, I would have ran Drew and Cesaro vs Sheamus and Holland.
Plus, Miz vs Edge does nothing for me. Really hoping Miz and Maryse vs Edge and Beth isn’t the Wrestlemania plan.

Just an FYI You’ve got WWE and Universal title matches mixed up.
Decent card. I’m hoping Brock doesnt win, doesnt need it, him chasing Roman is more intriguing. Heyman returning to Roman’s corner revealing a swerve that Roman never fired Heyman would be the way to go. Continuing the story that Reigns basically knowing he cant beat Brock straight up and needs to continue to find ways to cheat to win until he has none left.
I dont watch regularly anymore but is there a reason why its not Corbin vs. Drew and instead it’s lackey vs. Drew? Still kinda salty Edge comes back and gets Miz. Is that really the best we can do for Edge right now? Outside of his comeback in 2020 I really feel like they’ve kinda screwed up his return run. If they can’t do anything better for him as a face you’re better off just turning him heel and trying something new.
Side note: Does anyone know which match # this marks for some variation of New Day vs. Usos on PPV? Has to be getting up there for most PPV repeat matches of all time right?

Thank you for letting me know! I actually think Miz is the perfect opponent for Edge, storyline wise. Their mic work has been excellent, check them out if you can.

With the reports of a number of positive Covid tests, I expect some changes to this card. It was reported that Seth, Becky, Big E and Bianca were not at the MSG show tonight as advertised.

Thank you for letting me know! I actually think Miz is the perfect opponent for Edge, storyline wise. Their mic work has been excellent, check them out if you can. Miz to me is such a polarizing character. There’s things that I think he did in his career that I really found enjoyable (The Sandow Stunt Double Run, His IC title reign in late 2016, his feuds with Bryan) but then he does some stuff that forces me to stop watching its that bad (His entire WWE title run (well actually both of them), His 2019-2021 stuff with JoMo). In the time writing this post I went back and watched their recent promos on youtube and honestly found it to be the same recycled stuff thats used for almost every feud these days. Try to find something we can connect to the past and use that as a catalyst for our feud. Seems to be all the rage on either brand. The storytelling isnt great imo. And I hate when we inevitably start dragging the wives into the feud simply because they both used to be wrestlers. Beth had about as much a past feud with Maryse as Miz and Edge did. Miz complaining about Edge not helping him in 2006 makes literally zero sense, they weren’t even on the same brand until mid 2007 and then both not on SD until 2008. At the end of the day as someone who’s lived it all in real time (and I said the same thing about “Edges darker side” coming from the Brood), it just feels like someone writing stories these days that doesnt have the proper comprehension of the source material. I’d much rather have seen Miz step to Edge because something like “guys like him from his era are all the same, looking down at guys like Miz, saying they’re not as tough as they are, claiming they aren’t as big a star as they were, undermining their achievements for not facing better competition, etc….) That to me feels way more like a real reason for this feud than “you treated me poorly 16 years ago”. Like it took you 16 years… why? It doesnt make sense to me. And dragging the wives into an inevitable mixed tag at Mania will make even less sense. Seth/Becky would have made sense to be opponents for Edge/Beth because of what Seth did — invading Edges family home months ago. If you’re going to tell stories you gotta connect the dots.

LoL you can’t be serious miz/Edge is a poor man’s CMPunk/MJF. It’s convenient how Miz was off tv but as he was mentioned on dynamite he made his return.

He is truly pathetic, he is either the loser from YouTube or copy's everything he says, not sure what's worse.

MJF is just The Miz with more time spent scouring 4chan for material and without the smoking hot wife. Anywho, manifesting that they finally put the belt on Liv.

If they tested positive for Omicron then they have to sit at home for 5 days. I am sure they will all be at the PPV this Saturday.
Seth and Big E looked pretty damn healthy on the videos they showed on Raw. So I am guessing they don't have a strong case of it.

Not to get this thread locked so nobody respond if you’re gonna turn this political lol But you can have a simple cough at this point and somehow you’ll test positive and you can test positive one day and negative the next so who knows if they even truly had it

Haven't watched WWE in over a month. And that was NXT. My picks ...
- Roman retains due to Heyman screwing Brock - Owens win the title (just another part of the deal that keeps him in WWE) - Becky retains - Usos retain - RKBro retain ... unless WALTER screws Riddle (which sets up the upcoming NXT bout and maybe starts an Orton/WALTER program) - Edge wins - Who/what the hell is Madcap Moss? Drew wins.
Will not watch but it's cool that the PPV is on a Saturday.

I'm very much looking forward to how things will play out considering the covid cases.
My main interest in the Universal Title match is to see what the hell is going to happen with Reigns' title reign and how/if the title will go to Brock. I don't want a disappointing finish like the Balor fiasco a few months ago.
I can't really say I care much for the Becky/Liv match. Becky is considerably better than Liv Morgan and I feel like WWE has booked themselves into a corner where if Liv doesn't win it just looks stupid considering how the story has played out despite Liv not being in the same league as Becky. Lynch just has a presence that Liv can't compare to.
The Smackdown tag title match piques my interest because I know those teams always put on great matches and I don't think it'll be any different. I'm hoping for a New Day win to put some emphasis on Xavier's KOTR win and the story that's come out of it with Kingston.
Edge/Miz has been cool so far and I'm looking forward to it. I think Edge will get the win here unless there's some Mizanin chicanery involved.
I like the Profits but I see no reason in dethroning RKBro when they're so hot right now.
I have no interest in the Drew McIntyre match.
The fatal four way is intriguing because I really like how Owens/Rollins have been interacting over the past few months but if the title's taken off Big E that reign is just a complete disaster and I feel there needs to be some time and effort given to it in order for it to be salvaged.

The four way looks like it could be great. Everything else though, not so much. Too many rematches and random stuff
