Elimination Chamber Roman, Jimmy and Solo vs Sami, Jey and KO Jey turns on Sami Usos vs Sami and KO I don’t think Jimmy’s allowed in Canada? Not sure about Jey.

My gut says 1. mega powers 2 Rock /Austin mania 17 build 3 bloodine/Sami Top three storylines in wrestling history. That Rock/Austin build was pretty crappy imo. The finisher fakeouts and the final sitdown interview were great, but the weeks of drama about Debra were awful. I think the build to their other two Mania matches were overall better (although I think the Mania 17 match was their best). I meant more the part where Austin literally didn’t beat anyone in any of those big matches from his return to mania expect the rumble but he needed a chair to win, losing to Hunter, doubting himself, selling his soul to the devil for the title. The Debra part wasn’t great but the whole Austin not being the same guy was amazing. One of my absolute favorites.

I know Cody won the Rumble, but after this whole Sami Zayn Honorary Uce/Bloodline storyline and how massively over it has gotten, I can't think of a more satisfying payoff than for Sami to be the one to beat Roman for the titles at Mania. You have to strike while the iron is hot and it's seems like it won't be any hotter than at this moment. But I digress.

Roman went full godfather tonight and im here for it.
The whole angle did masteful wonders for everyone. It unknowingly made Roman feel less like a tyrant for the past few months because of the comedic stuff with Sami. And when the time called for it, Sami played the sacrificial hero, Roman played the vicious tyrant, and Jey played the conflicted Uso all perfectly.
That was a beautiful ending.

Does KO/Sami vs The Usos main event night one of Mania? I can't see either of the women's matches having a higher profile.

masterful storytelling here.
they've made one of the biggest babyfaces of the last decade with Sami now. this HAS to end with him holding the Universal Championship. you cant just pivot to KO & Sami winning the tag titles, this has gone way beyond that. Plus with Jey leaving tonight, that creates a new dynamic.

They stuffed it why not have Sami win rumble then turn on Roman very good storytelling but the pay off in my opinion not so worthy what Cody gonna win the title. 2 what’s the pay off for Sami winning the tag belts with ko that’s it I think it’s Sami vs the usos not Sami vs roman in my opinion

The ending felt like a classic mafia movie. I haven't felt something like that since watching the Godfather, Goodfellas etc. A friend I was talking to said that The Rock could potentially interfere in the Cody/Reigns match. That for me would make sense with the family falling apart. I would love it if the whole Bloodline ditches Roman and causes him to lose to be honest. Either way, I don't think anyone could take anything away from Roman. I remember all the naysayers here hating on him for years. Dude is a natural heel and if he turns face, he should be an antihero. I'm going to miss Roman when he reduces his schedule/retires. Anyways, I had good fun shooting the sh*t with you guys tonight. Be safe ya'll.

As someone who hasn't watched a WWE show in several years, I don't feel compelled to stick around.
The wrestling tonight was absolutely nothing to write home about. Extremely predictable, and some outright unbearable stuff like Bray's match thrown in.
Some very good storytelling around the main event for sure, very compelling. I'll check back in for Wrestlemania.

Brilliant PPV 👏
Both Rumbles were great fun. Hunter trying to erase Vinces records it seems lol
How about this at Mania..
Night 1 - Usos vs KO and Sami and Roman vs Cody for WWE title

Night 1 - Usos vs KO and Sami and Roman vs Cody for WWE title Night 2 - Roman vs Sami for Universal title I saw someone say Roman losing a title at night 1 would diminish the winner of night 2 taking the other title from him but I don’t think it would if anything it would diminish Reigns’ dominance

Would love to see them make an audible on part of the Rumble winner ruling after tonight. Since the Rumble rules technically states the winner gets to challenge for "a" championship, Roman announces that he outsmarted the system. Says that Cody can choose which one of his two championships he can challenge for but can't have both. Cody chooses and fights for "title one" on night one. Pearce declares Roman must defend both titles at Mania and will defend "title two" on Night Two against the winner of the Elimination Chamber (i.e. Sami Zayn). Roman vs. Cody for Title A - Main Events Night One Owens & Zayn vs. Usos for Tag Titles takes place Night One (ala Bret/Owen, Yoko/Luger, Yoko/Bret Mania X where everyone has the same amount of matches) Roman vs. Zayn w/Owens for Title B - Main Event Night Two Edit: Lol guess someone beat me to the idea Brilliant PPV 👏 Both Rumbles were great fun. Hunter trying to erase Vinces records it seems lol How about this at Mania.. Night 1 - Usos vs KO and Sami and Roman vs Cody for WWE title Night 2 - Roman vs Sami for Universal title

He could go on a frenzy after he loses both belts and disappear. He could return as an anti-hero to a large pop.
