Today is Opening Day for MLB. The Mets see the World Champion Royals and as a Mets fan, I can't remember a time when I was more jacked about a season than this one. Tonight is also the season finale of The Walking Dead, one that I can honestly say I'm both looking forward to and dreading because of who's coming into the mix and what it likely means for one unfortunate soul.
Oh and today is Wrestlemania. In Dallas, Texas at AT&T Stadium aka Jerryworld, home of the Dallas Cowboys. Since 1997, they've been the epitomy of mediocrity in the NFL. Unless I'm mistaken, it's easily the biggest pro football stadium in the country. I wish I could say I was as excited about this year's Mania, but alas I am not. The top end, which is generally what you use to pull in the masses is really off for reasons I'll get into later. So this year, as I take in various Manias on the Network, I may as well type out some predictions. Note, I don't have a ton of high expectations for this Mania. Yes, XXX and X31 were outstanding. We're due for a really bad one and this will probably be it.
United States Championship
Kalisto v. Ryback
- It's crazy to think that just three years ago, Ryback was on the cusp of being a major player on the main event scene. He had a real Goldberg like following and he probably should've won the 2013 Royal Rumble. Alas, he did not. Alas, bad booking followed. Alas, he's opening Mania against maybe the most meh United States Champion in recorded ever. Other than his one super insane spot at TLC last December, I can't think of one recognizable thing about Kalisto. It feels like Ryback will win and if not, well, whatever.
Who Should Win: I generally don't care.
Who Will Win: I probably won't care and neither will you. (See, my prediction column is already starting off better than tonight's Mania.)
Styles/Jericho IV
- If they really do open Mania with the above, then they'll need something to wake people up or get them back to their seats from their concession runs (cause that's really the only match on this card that you can legitimately bookmark as 'I can miss this for...'). This would've worked so much better if they didn't throw away one of these matches on regular TV. This should be the rubber match, but when bad booking has overrun a company...this is what you get. There's no feasible way that Styles loses here. Problem is AJ has the 2-1 advantage and another win isn't really moving the meter so to speak. Still, it'll be a good match and I guess that's really all we can ask for because we sure as hell aren't getting any really good storylines out of this deal.
Who Should Win: Styles
Who Will Win: Styles. I can see him becoming a top contender for either the IC (maybe) or US (not what most want, but that title needs some luster put back on it after all it has lost since Cena dropped it last year) for the Spring.
New Day/The League Of Maroons
- The Roman Initiative has been an abject failure. I'm not talking small, as in it has only caught the one guy involved. It has totally crushed the four guys who technically have the man advantage in this match. But well, because of how completely idiotic that Roman Reigns made them look shortly after forming...yeah. They haven't gotten any serious traction since and with how badly New Day has owned them on YouTube over the last month and change...good grief.
Oh and this is what happens when you totally dry up your tag division, kids. Mundane handicap deals like this where yeah.
Who Should Win: New Day. If only we had a good tag division around them...
Who Will Win: New Day. Small riot may break out if they do something outrageous like actually have The League Of Half Wits win.
Divas Championship
Charlotte w/Ric Flair v. Sasha Banks v. Becky Lynch
- Apparently, this is the swan song for maybe the worst designed belt sans those penny belts the New Day have. That aside, what started horribly last July with easily the worst booked set of trios in recorded ever has led us here. Charlotte dethroned Nikki Bella to become Divas Champion last September and maybe weeks after Paige insulted her dead brother, went heel and it kinda went downhill from there for her. I'm a huge Flair fan, if not for her pops I might not be into wrestling at all. But they've done a piss poor job of establishing her as anything more than a really bad knock off of her dad and it's BAD. I don't remember her being this bad in NXT to be honest. I read somewhere this morning that she felt insulted when they had her dad walking with her to the ring and to be honest, I kinda agree with her.
This will easily be, given time which it likely will get, the greatest women's match in Mania history. (Until maybe next year when we may get Banks/Bayley on this platform and they crush it out the yard.) Under normal circumstances, given all that has unfolded since January, this is where Becky would break through. She was hosed at the Rumble. She has been hosed the last two times she has gone after the title. Sasha interjected herself into this mix after Becky's second try at the Rumble and her case is a simple one. She hasn't lost since coming up from NXT and is sick of waiting for her shot. Becky SHOULD win. Sasha WILL win.
Who Should Win: Becky Lynch. Months of coming up short normally pay off at the biggest stage...but not likely this year.
Who Will Win: Sasha Banks. Cause it pays to have a famous cousin who just got inducted into the Hall Of Fuckery last night. She's winning.
No Holds Barred Street Fight
Brock Lesnar w/Paul Heyman v. Dean Ambrose
- This started as a result of how the main event of Fast Lane ended. Apparently, Brock Lesnar felt a certain kind of way about having a steel chair bounced off of him repeatedly by Dean Ambrose. He assaulted Dean the night after on Raw in the parking lot and Dean challenged him to a No Holds Barred Street Fight for Mania because the only things that will survive a nuclear holocaust are cockroaches, Twinkies and Dean Ambrose. So yeah, this is how we got here. It's Dean Ambrose against an indiscriminate weapon of mass destruction in Brock Lesnar. Normally, the rule book is the only thing that keeps Brock's opponents from being completely left for dead. Dean has removed that from the equation. This will be brutal. It will be fun. I'm reasonably certain win or lose, Dean will come out of this similar to Austin in Wrestlemania XIII after his loss to Bret. Fans will still love him and he SHOULD have the inside track to headlining next year's Mania. (Why he's not headliing this year's Mania...never mind.)
Who Should Win: Dean Ambrose. Brock technically picked this fight with Dean by assaulting him in the parking lot. Dean SHOULD win this.
Who Will Win: Brock, I think. This is one of those rare instances where I'm not sure this is as clear cut as it looks on paper. It's kind of a given that the Wyatts will factor into this, given their interaction with both over the last few weeks. It's worth noting that the last Street Fight that Brock was involved in at Mania, came against Triple H three years ago.
Intercontinental Championship Ladder Match
Kevin Owens v. Sami Zayn v. Dolph Ziggler v. The Miz & Other Dudes Who Have No Business In This Match At All
- This makes zero sense. A Fatal Four Way made more sense than this. Zayn/Owens made the most sense, but given what's at the very top of the card, we can't have anyone taking away from that by stealing the show like Savage/Steamboat 29 years earlier. Apparently, it has been 15 years since the IC Champion has walked in and walked out of Mania the champion. That was Chris Jericho at X-7 aka The Greatest Mania Ever. There's only one other person I could make a case for winning this thing and that's Zayn, but under this set of circumstances...it's not really a big blow against Owens directly if he beats five other guys up a ladder to snatch a belt. With the history between these two, Owens and Zayn needs to be mano y mano and Zayn needs to beat Owens directly. To exact revenge for turning on him, for taking the NXT Championship and nearly ending his career last year.
Who Should Win: KO.
Who Will Win: Zayn, cause it probably makes too much sense to do what I just laid out and they'd rather not let these two build this bad boy up.
WWE World Heavyweight Championship
Triple H v. Roman Reigns
- In the 30 years of Wrestlemania, I don't think you'll ever find a scenario like this. EVER. This is generally where the big time babyface is all but coronated as months of his struggle against the heel champion finally pay off. But what happens when nobody wants to see that? What happens when at seemingly every turn, that guy is all but booed out of the building? Happened at last year's Mania as the masses cheered Brock nearly killing this poor guy with about 10 Suplexes and 3 F5s. This year, we get something we haven't seen in 11 years. Triple H going into Wrestlemania as World Champion. If they handled this better, then yes, Trips could and probably would succeed in getting Roman over with the masses. But for two straight years, they have tried unsuccessfully to get Roman over and it has FAILED. There was a glimmer of hope in late December when he snapped and absolutely went psychotic on Triple H. If they kept the belt off of him, left it on Sheamus a little while longer, I don't think it would be as bad as it is now.
It's worth noting that Triple H has been at his absolute best on the stick. Even going back to the zenith of his heel powers which ran from 2000-2005 or so. His promo on Monday was serious heel gold and seemingly the only time you could get the crowd to boo was when one of two things happened...
Stephanie spoke or Roman Reigns was even uttered aloud. That last part this close to Mania is NOT GOOD AT ALL.
This time around, there's no Money In The Bank to save them like last year. This time, they have to go one way (Trips retaining) or the other (Roman regaining the title). It's one thing if your face is booed at any other event or venue. It simply CANNOT HAPPEN AT MANIA. Every eye in the world is on it, especially now that they're in bed with ESPN who has set up shop there. They cannot afford to have their chosen champion booed out of the arena by 100 thousand plus when he's technically supposed to be cheered by that many. It shouldn't have gone this way, but push something far enough and eventually...this is the end result.
Who Should Win: Roman Reigns. Well, if they hadn't been so damn unrelenting in their desire to get him over...yeah. He SHOULD WIN. But unless he wins, then goes heel immediately after on whatever poor soul comes out to try and share his spotlight...see below.
Who Will Win: Triple H. It's difficult to outdo the title farce that was Wrestlemania IX, but if anything could, this most certainly would be it. This will be a No DQ match, something they probably should've announced way sooner than they did. It's not like X-7 with Austin/Rock where that sudden change made the match that much better. All that aside, Triple H should win and furthermore, he should remain champion until his protege returns sometime this Spring (or later this Summer) to get what's his back.
Heck In A Cage
The Undertaker v. Shane McMahon
Shane wins, he gets control of Monday Night Raw & Taker can no longer compete at Mania
- So apparently, Shane McMahon has stuff in a lockbox that his pops doesn't want leaked. The contents of which are so damaging, Vince has agreed to Shane's demands IF he can win tonight at Mania against his most loyal disciple. (Reference November 2001 after Survivor Series if you really want the backstory on the Vince/Taker dynamic. Would've been really helpful if they fleshed this out way more than they did. Actually, would've been helpful if they did something more than make the match and then have these two hurling insults at each other.) When Shane returned a month ago, most everyone lost their mind. He hasn't been seen in ten years. He was missed by everyone who has had their fill of every other McMahon and at this point, I guess Shane in place of Vince and Stephanie works out just fine. I think the WWE has more or less ridden this nostalgia wave to a poorly booked match where it wasn't well thought out and the execution of it could be even worse. (At least Boss Man/Taker had a little bit of rhyme or reason behind it back at WM XV.)
If The Undertaker wins, well, what then? Does Shane go away? Do we find out what Shane had in that box which Vince didn't want to see the light of day? (This kinda reminds me of Inside Man in a way...only not as coherent in the plot department.) Shane's last fight was ten years ago alongside his pops. His last Heck In A Cage match, ten years ago against DX. Shane's last Mania match came against his pops at The Greatest Mania Ever. Thing is, I'm not with Taker being used in this fashion when he has maybe one or two more Manias left counting this one. It's difficult to envision a scenario where Taker loses in Texas. Whoever helps makes this happen, will be booed to no end. Trust and believe that. That's the other part to this which makes no sense to me. You're putting the fans in a near impossible position where to get the change they really want (no more Authority on Raw, meaningless if it stays at three hours but whatever) they have to root against their homestate guy.
Who Should Win: Taker. Taker about killed Shane on an episode of Smackdown in 2000 shortly after his return as the American Bad Ass and that took less than five minutes. He has beaten bigger and badder on this stage. No way should he lose in his return to his homestate to Vince's kid. Never mind the whole 'Shane can't throw a believable punch despite all this extensive training he's undergoing' thing.
Who Will Win: Everything about this screams "shenanigans". This feels like a lot of brawling, weapons and everything we're likely to get with Dean & Brock minus the suplexes. With there being the distinct chance that The Authority are off Raw. This becomes moot when you realize they can simply slide over to Smackdown and doubly moot if Hunter remains champion coming out of Mania. I'm still thinking there was a better way to go about doing this with Taker (best way would've been to have Bray/Taker 2, this time Bray wins).
My guess is Shane will win as someone returns who has enough motivation to see The Authority removed from Raw. There was something Shane mentioned about folks who haven't gotten enough shots that kinda felt like a zing, but was meant to be something we kept in our minds for later down the line. Shane running Raw with Triple H remaining the WWE WHC, feels like how Mania will end tonight.
BONUS TIME
Who dies tonight at the end of The Walking Dead???
- Short answer, nobody...YET. Long answer, this show will let us all stew on this for the next six months. I think they're going to do something really clever, like shift the camera to where we see it from their perspective and it will fade when the bat connects. The easy answer is Darryl. Especially after he got the Benny Blanco treatment from ole Dwight Slapnut last week. Even if that wasn't a killshot, with no doctor on hand, how long can he go with a gunshot wound?
We haven't had a really great villain since The Governor and I've heard that Negan is the baddest of them all. So I'm super excited to see what's next, but kinda sad at what this is likely going to mean for things moving forward.
Oh and today is Wrestlemania. In Dallas, Texas at AT&T Stadium aka Jerryworld, home of the Dallas Cowboys. Since 1997, they've been the epitomy of mediocrity in the NFL.
