Also love Owen's annual KOMania shirts

Shame the commentary has been shithouse so far

Edit: also a shame about the dead crowd

Logan Paul did his role perfectly. Didn't get involved in a great 1v1 match, did the switch, encouraged the heat, and got stunned.

No idea hm who he is, but good on him (and Owens and Sami)

 

[Filthy Sanchez]

It was a pretty good match but would’ve liked more storytelling in the match, like Sami going off at the refs for a conspiracy or something.

And * off Owens always playing pretend Stone Cold. He obviously has no sense of creativity or originality himself and that’s why he’ll never be a top guy.

Agree to both. Took SO much energy at the end of that match to get them on their feet and cheering.

And Cole is a disgrace. Not only calling the wrong moves, but zero hype for setups to signature and finishers. "oh, btw, he was going for the helluva kick there"

Def capped for time. Was just getting to the last 5min back and forward finishers, but then it just ended.
They did absolutely everything they could given the time (which is ridiculous since mania is now across 2 nights, and I reckon that women's tag match got more fn time).

Also dunno how wwe is gonna go with RVD handing out rollies when the company is onboard with that anti-smoking stuff.
-Also missed opportunity for RVD to comment on how off the planet Riddle is when he rolled away.

More and more RVD becomes later-years Steven Segal.

This should be a top match also. Both have been on fire in the ring

Riddle gets pyro (and some birds?)

Not sure about that, his pop up powerbomb WAS his version of the stunner.. I get the feeling someone above requested he start using the stunner

 

[Filthy Sanchez]

Haha Khali still sucks at everything

 

[ptrg]

PIRATE PIGEONS!!

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Logan Paul sold more than the young bucks

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Riddle haha I smoke weed im so cool

 

[brutus76]

VINCE it's WRESTLELAMIA.

MORE WRESTLING less scripted bs talk fest not required segmental fiiler rubbish.

Cole has been deplorable - time to give it up.

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

I was expecting this to be a squash but it’s been pretty great.

One of my favourite parts of this mania was the rain delay promos.
Completely non-script, on the fly old skool hype promos.
You could see the wrestlers unique abilities on the mic, and all their different ways at avoiding being the cliche "I'm ready for the big fight" wrestling BS

Wish they had more of these sort of short promos at Mania like the old days. Then, just feud recap/hype vids and then matches.

 

[ptrg]

Umm, that epic suplex slam by Riddle.. A bit of a "hommage" to old Billy G? Haha

 

[ptrg]

* yeah this match is good.
Wake up crowd you dopes

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Yes * off riddle

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

That was a stonker! What a match to get the energy up

 

[ptrg]

What a bugger he slipped on that top rope white noise.
But again, another match that needed at least another 5mins

 

[ptrg]

Yes fu** off riddle

Nah, * off wwe writers. Let the bloke just be his natural self.
Nearing AJ levels of chemistry with most other wrestlers, awesome seller, great unique moves, and naturally very charasmatic.

Just needs the immature wwe writers to * the * off and leave him to his own devices

The whole stoner thing is boring

 

[Filthy Sanchez]

Happy with that match, things are looking up. A strong finish could make this a salvageable Mains.

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

Looking forward to this, hopefully they go hard with the weapons.

Actually interested in Apollo for the first time

 

[ptrg]

Dont mind Wale (got into him thru wwe video games), but damn that's some next level lip syncing haha.
Even Lemmy in his final mania physically sung more words in Time to Play the Game (admittedly, that stood out more due to not lip syncing)
