The problem with Roman's reign is that we are now just waiting for Mania and if he faces Cody which is most likely happening then there is no suspense at all, it's gonna be a very predictable outcome. Cause there's no way you make the hero, your top babyface lose two years in a row, there isn't a single wrestling company on earth that would do that.

Given how big and historic this reign is I would have love to see it end in a shocking way just like the Undertaker's streak. Everyone remember that moment, I'm not sure Cody beating Roman at mania is gonna feel special cause it's expected by everyone at this point.

LA knight should have never been in the ring with Roman. They jumped the gun on this one. Knight should have went for the US or IC title and won coming off the miz feud.

I don’t know why they like to rush people to the main title as soon as they get over. And if they insisted on rushing him then he should have dethroned Seth


Speaking of Seth they should have went with Drew, it was obvious and they dropped the ball there as well. Hell I would have been fine with a priest cash in, let him get a short run until mania.
It's a saudi show, which means that saudis possibly asked for LA Reigns match and WWE obliged. I'd like to see LA beating Logan for US title in Royal Rumble or Wrestlemania. Will that happen? Who knows.

I barely seen anything but from what I did see it was alright.

Solo hitting Cena with that many spikes was hard

Kairi looked cool

its obvious LA Knight is going to be the US Champ. a feud with him Logan is the right way to do it too.
they just let him get his moment with Roman for getting himself to pop. a little reward because he's never going to get the chance to compete for the top belt again

If LA Knight is not getting another opportunity, then pretty much entire roster minus couple wrestlers should not get another opportunity again. Cause this is ridiculous. I mean who are these wrestlers then? OK Cody, maybe Jey. Who else? Damian? fukk NO. Solo? Long shot really. Bron too young for that. Gunther maybe, he's doing well with IC title. Drew? Missed the opportunity, they are underbooking him now. Seth is a clown, he would ruin those belts. Zayn and Owens? I don't think that's happening.

Reigns still having a whole slew guys that he hasn't faced. This whole year been a dud for Reigns after crazy good start with Cody, Owens, and Zayn. Then, we only get Jey and LA Knight the rest of the year is abhorrent.

AJ Styles
Bobby Lashley
Sheamus
Etc

Those are guys you can build a story around them with Reigns.

LA Knight is a victim of timing. He won’t get a reign with the world title unless he’s drafted to RAW and defeats Seth for it. I feel like it’s gonna be him and Logan Paul at Royal Rumble for the US title and then they’ll drag it out to mania.

The AJ seems set in stone after what Solo did to him.

And I see him facing off with Jimmy and Solo before the Cody match.

They’ll try and tell the story of him and the Bloodline dissolving which and then leads to the match with Cody. No family to aid him this time around.

They most likely wanted to take advantage of the momentum he has been garnering so they gave him an early title shot. So yeah timing was not on his side.

A feud with Logan for the US title or a Rumble win leading to a WHC match at Mania seems like the way to go. Either way he still is going to be a top 3 babyface in the company.

See that’s whats gonna make Reigns reign look weak as hell when it’s all said and done. Reigns looked dominant for maybe a good first 5 months as champ until the fukkery started with Paul Heyman assisting him win against KO at the RR. Now if the bloodline truly crumbles before mania 40 and Cody whoops that ass Reigns gonna look real sus :sas2:.

I understand wanting to elevate other members of Romans family and they did a good job doing so but at the end of the day I feel like it’s gonna diminish Roman’s actual long title Reign when he had help for damn near 80% of his defenses.

It won’t diminish him breh

If its a highly competitive match no one is gonna really think that he looks weak imo

It’s gonna make him look weak because he can’t actually beat Cody 1 on 1 is what I’m thinking but y’all hype about this long ass title Reign..I’m more hype about the aftermath of his title Reign. I wanna see this nikka Reigns go ape shyt for a few months causing absolute chaos on the rosters until he goes to Hollywood but knowing Reigns he’ll lose the title at mania 40 and then disappear for like 6 months and come back as a baby face.

And if he comes back babyface and dominates then that’ll solidify him regardless.

The other idea of him causing havoc don’t sound bad though.
