Holy shit they just showed the main event ending on SportsCenter. Just seemed surreal to see it covered like a real sport.

For those who can't quite grasp the concept of the MITB briefcase (because that's what it is), it's very simple. The briefcase holder has the right to cash it in (trade it in) at any time on whatever champion he so pleases (now down to 1 champion these days). The legitimacy of a fair 1-on-1 match never existed since Edge first cashed in his briefcase. Are you trying to tell me that creating a championship match against a bloody and mangled John Cena at the end of PPV is just as legitimate as if Edge had said "I will cash-in my MITB briefcase after your Elimination Chamber match" before it started? I don't think so. Therefore, it is perfectly logical for a MITB cash-in to occur during a match to turn it into another type of match which changes the rules. I honestly was surprised after all of these years it took THIS LONG to FINALLY do it.
A 1-on-1 championship match became a Triple Threat championship match. No harm, no foul. |

I dont really know what y'all are arguing about but "any time, anywhere" makes no sense because the wwe champion wasn't even at most of the raw or smackdown shows, so if the guy wanted to do it on one of those, what would happen

Oh, I'm not claiming you sung his praise. You clearly didn't think he was any more ready than the rest of us. You did however make it a point to laugh at everyone who was disappointed when Bryan didn't win and state how WWE was making the smart business choice. Looks like even Vince disagreed with you this time, bub.

Doing the Jump-In Cash-Out only sets you up, if you bag your 1st World Title, to a title loss within 2-3 months anyway. Rollins won't be champion too long, so why bother with a Jump-In Cash-Out? Oh...another explanation...Cash-Out, in financial terms, means you cash out a check(qe) to get the amount of money listed on it. So, yeah...Jump-In Cash-Out....makes sense to use ONLY that term for something like what happened tonight. |

I hope they're smart about it; Lesnar probably won't be back until SummerSlam so he'll either get his rematch or a match for contendership there. Rollins is going to be protected by the authority so I doubt that usual "rematch clause" rules will apply. Orton and Reigns will both vie for their deserved title shots and probably be pitted against each other. With the supposed plans to focus on building prestige for the midcard titles (which would seemingly be given credibility by the idea that both are now held by former multi-time world champions) Cena will be away from the World title picture for a while, which suits me fine.

The MITB case is an inherently heel plot device. Edge and Seth Rollins had them used for them perfectly.

Also I wanna see J&J accompanying Rollins to the ring for his celebration in neckbraces tomorrow night in the time-honored tradition of lackeys who take bullets.

ROH is what it is because WWE has a monopoly on pro-wrestling. No one's ever gonna take another wrestling promotion seriously no matter what they do. Money = power and WWE has both in spades.
Keep pretending it's because they're all Flippy McKickpads though. I'm sure TNA during their "lets copy WWE's every move" phase did amazingly well... Oh, wait... no it didn't... |

Yeah, and consider that "I'll be cashing in at Wrestlemania NO IMA DO IT NOW WHILE MARK HENRY IS DEAD" is what launched Bryan down the heel path.

Although #1wwf-fan is being pretty ridiculous tonight, he's right that the ppv was sold on lesnar vs reigns. Rollins winning doesn't change.
It's like saying Ronda Roussay sold the ppv. |

9.3 / 10 - Quite possibly one of the most entertaining Wrestlemania's that I've seen in a LONG time.
Wow - So I watched the PPV at the theater tonight and I was thoroughly impressed. Absolutely great show! I did not see this one coming at all.
Roman Reigns "sold" me tonight. As both an entertainer and a wrestler. I had my doubts about the guy like most did, but I was really impressed by him. The Ladder match was off the hook, as was Rollins/Orton. Absolutely great spot. Cena/Rusev exceeded my expectations, and it looks like Lana could be turning face. Triple H/Sting with added in DX vs. nWo was an extremely pleasant surprise. Absolutely loved the Triple H/Steph/Rock/Rousey skit as well. My only mild disappointment was Bray not going over Taker, but I understand the WWE's decision and actually think it was the right call. Hopefully, Bray calls out Taker and goes over him at Summerslam.......ending Taker's career and going over big time. Lesnar, Reigns, and Rollins all went over huge in the main-event. Lesnar legitimately looked like a beast in there (even I went full markdom and 'winced' every time he suplexed Reigns), and Reigns played the never-say-die underdog role exceptionally well..........and Rollins of course, played the chicken shit heel to perfection (i.e. cashing in when both Reigns and Lesnar were down). Triple H's entrance was weird, but cool, and the backstage skit with Bryan, Flair, Steamboat, Hart, Patterson, and Simmons was gold. I can't remember the last time I was this entertained by a PPV. Wrestlemania 18 might've been the last time, but this was definitely one of the best Wrestlemania's that I've ever seen. 9.3 / 10. |
