    I also think Kidd and Cesaro will retain in the preshow match.

    Gotta think there's a much better chance Brock retains now. Also jumping way ahead here, but Brock/Rock seems like a good possibility for next year's Mania. Also I'd like to see a Brock/Orton feud and even a Bryan/Brock feud. I hope Reigns/Brock doesn't last too long but I'm sure Reigns will have a rematch clause if he loses.

    Also something interesting to think about is if WWE plans to let Brock keep the title for a while now, then Rollins has to cash in and lose at some point. Maybe Reigns invokes his rematch clause for extreme rules and Rollins adds himself to the match making it a triple threat. Brock has limited dates of course so you'd think if Rollins is to cash in, it has to be Mania or the next PPV cuz then I bet Brock's gone till Summerslam time.

    I don't think Reigns will get a rematch clause??.. if he doesn't win the title. Now if he wins the title, and loses it..then he gets one..unless you get a rematch clause even if ya didn't win/lose anything.

    Why would Reigns get a rematch clause if he loses? :dead:

    I hope you're right, I don't want to see him get a rematch if he loses. Now that I think about it, I think they usually do that when a champ loses their belt, so in this case that wouldn't be Roman. So hopefully it's one and done, I'm just wondering when Rollins will get involved then.

    Yeah the only way I could see Roman Reigns getting a rematch clause, if he were to lose to Brock Lesnar, is if it was like a big screwy finish. Like bunch of run ins and then Brock hits Reigns with a chair or something. But The Authority wouldn't give Reigns that rematch anyways in kayfabe.

    btw im knocking on wood, hoping that what i just said does not happen.

    If someone didn't get why Brock is so important to WWE, maybe they do now with how much attention the story of Brock re signing has got. 10 minutes on sportscenter last night, big story on ESPN.com yesterday and other outlets as well. I can guarantee WWE absolutely loves that positive attention especially the week of their biggest show of the year.

    It's really hard to believe they'll let Brock lose at this point, it'd look bad from a mainstream perspective since no one knows who Roman is lol, it'd also get heavily booed which WWE wouldn't like to have casual fans seeing. Brock's gonna retain, Reigns will be a mid carder this time next year if things go the way they should. Really hope WWE does a Brock/Orton feud next, think it'd be a good time for that.

    I've been rooting for Roman, but I 100% want Lesnar to win on Sunday now, especially since he's confirmed as staying

    Lesnar announced his new deal is for 3 years, takes him through WM34 I'd assume. That could easily be like 9 or 10 more matches for him. He also said he turned down a huge offer from UFC, the offer was apparently 10x what they offered him before.

    Roman was great in The Shield, even for a while after the split, but now dude is just another Ryback :idk:

    I thought bray would win too but i highly doubt it seeming as they are keeping taker for mania and he hasnt been seen in a year everyone will be so disapointed if bray wins,i think undertaker will win and get inducted next year

    and i think paige and aj will win,thats why they fought on raw they want you to think they cant get along so it will be more suprising when they win,who cares anyway divas match might aswell be renamed to piss break

    Reigns really sucks, his push couldn't be going any worse but it is at least partly the WWE's fault. The booking of the rumble match was about as bad as I've ever seen. If they wanted Reigns to win, that's not the way to do it. It also didn't help that he was hurt for a few months. But with all that said, Reigns really sucks so far with his push. He's just not that talented and not ready.

    Anyways the divas had good matches on raw the last 2 weeks, their match will be good at Mania if it gets 10+ minutes. AJ and Paige are both very good when they get a chance imo.

    I wouldn't say Reigns sucks per say (just a personal opinion) but I do agree that he's not ready. Ideally I'd like for Rusev to beat Cena on Sunday (it's a long shot though IMO) and feud with Reigns over the summer

    Yeah it's gonna be so awkward having Cena prance around with the US title for the next month or 2.

    Rusev/Reigns is a good idea, that's about where he should be on the card right now imo. Although I know some think Bryan's overrated but a Bryan/Brock main event would have made a lot more sense this year and also been a better draw.

    The sad thing is WWE are only putting the title on Cena to 'bring back credibility' and to 'help elevate the title more than it has been' where they can easily do that without Cena with Rusev. Instead of booking him in re-match after re-match with Swagger and have him defend the title a lot more.

    Disagree, Rusev gets great heat in every arena. Of course it's just over his anti-US stuff but still, that's his gimmick and he's doing good with it.

    yeh but how long can he keep the undefeated streak ? if he wants it to go on for months then he should only fight at ppvs,when he loses to john cena nobady will care about him anymore and he will probably drop the american hate gimmick :emoji_slight_frown:

    The battle royal has been moved to the pre show, tag match is still on the pre show as well. Kinda weird but I saw someone bring up the possibility of Miz/Sandow splitting up during the battle royal and then having a match on the Mania card, I could see that happening.

    Hopefully they didn't move it to the pre show just to add another s-----y musical performance or something.
