BoD Daily Update

Original Plans for WrestleMania Main Event

 The original plans had Roman Reigns defeating Brock Lesnar in a match that went 35 minutes including entrances but the show ran long so they changed the match length.

    I don't think the length of the show is the problem, it's the way they structure it and the way they focus on two matches (at most) over the duration of the three hours.

    If they expanded the time the undercard are given in the ring (for example, give Neville and Axel 10-15 mins instead of 3) and actually put a little storyline development focus on them, and cut the never-fucking-ending recaps, the 3 hours would fly past.

    They early should have main evented the show with the Cena open challenge and Cena/Ambrose match. Do that segment with Orton threatening Rollins backstage and keep them off rest of show. Then in the third hour Big Show is out there gloating, fans chanting please retire at him, and Reigns just walks out, says nothing and kills Show in less than a minute.


    Then end the night with a super hot Cena/Ambrose match.

    3 hours is absolutely way too much time, way too much. Everyone's gonna get o erexposed, no matter how well they structure the show. (And yes they can structure things way better, but 3 hours every Monday plus Smackdown is insane and killing the roster.)

  72. TheDDGMarch 31, 2015 at 8:09 AM

    I don't disagree, but if Lesnar is still working limited dates, what do you run instead? It seems like they're going to use Bryan to elevate the IC belt and Cena to elevate the US belt, so who's left for Rollins to feud with? Maybe elevate Ziggler once and for all?

    Right, but it wasn't sustainable for the other two hours of the show. Even the best Raws of the three hour era had one hour that dragged.


    But it's not 100 percent WWE's decision. Triple H even said it on the Austin podcast, if he could bring the show back to 2 hours, he would.

    Eh, I disagree with you here, NORMALLY, and as much as I enjoyed the show (the first two hours of it), the crowd reactions here have to be taken with a bit of a grain of salt. Orton has been MUCH more over in the weeks leading up to Wrestlemania, and I actually think his psycho face character who does bad things to heels is really fun. As far as Big Show and Kane though, that's another story, why they are in the main event in 2015 still baffles my mind, but who knows.

    I thought the SD match was better, even still. This was like the third round between the two guys. I sat through RAW live that night, then went home and watched it again. It was slightly better live than it was on TV, which neutered the match by removing the middle. I really wish they'd save their commercial time for minor matches.

    When you let the dog off the leash sometimes he'll shit on your neighbors lawn and its funny, and sometimes he shits on your lawn and it sucks.

    It's for moments like these that WWE desperately needs talent who can, and have the freedom to, improvise on the mic. A solid heel Diva with promo skills could have stopped the match, demanded a mic, rightly called out those douche bags for being douche bags, and generated more heel heat for herself. I feel like Sunny, Sherri Martel, or Medusa could have dealt with them.
