Yep. It's been nice listening to all of the different interviews he's been giving to different outlets. He seems genuinely happy about being involved in the Hall of Fame this year.

Can't wait for tomorrow night.
Seems as of now the Women's Smackdown match has been moved off the preshow. WWE only list 2 preshow matches so far.
Wonder if they timed out the show and they can fit it in or deciding to switch it with another match. If I had to switch it with one match it would be Ambrose vs Corbin.

Do you really think single hot women go buy front row tickets to Monday Night RAW?
Marvel
could never
Yeah it's been nice.

A hot single guy would!
And by that I mean me.
If I had money.
And it was Smackdown.

That was my thought. I know the crowds very well, and that GIF is not real unless orchestrated.
Exactly. Roman's problem in a nutshell. How the hell they didn't learn after the Batista debacle, I have no idea. See also, John Cena.
Lol just looking at their reactions is a dead give away. Their celebration dance with the camera on them doesn't make any sense for people watching a wrestling match.

I don't remember people were hoping for a Roman push, theh just didn't want Batista to win and Reigns was our last hope at having him eliminated
I can't believe this photo gave me those feels.
I can't believe in 2017, Jericho is the best guy on the roster.

It's still just two right now according to both the official card and the main article about the kick off.
http://www.wwe.com/shows/wrestlemania/33/article/watch-wrestlemania-33-kickoff
http://www.wwe.com/shows/wrestleman...ia-33-match-card-previews-start-time-and-more
Ignoring the graphic of the article about the kickoff having Bliss in it but between rthe SD women's match not being mentioned there and the full card listing it amongst the main show matches, it does in fact seem like yes the SD Women's match has been bumped up to the main show. Also of note the official card still calls it Bliss vs everyone available meaning we might be in for some returns/surprises.
Barring any surprise kick off matches it also means that hopefully Aries/Neville is going to have even more time as there is no other match scheduled for the first hour of the pre show.
Also given that the full card lists the pre show matches in the correct order and lists the triple threat tag title match as the first main show match (which was basically what everyone predicted) this could be the official match order... meaning that Wyatt/Orton might actually be your Wrestlemania actual Main Event...

I never appreciated him until this last year. And I was there during the real ECW-WCW days.
His talent and morals are legend.

Well, yeah they were totally plants, like I said the two I mentioned look really familiar. The one in the middle reminded me of a drunk chick at ladies night at the strip club and Roman was the main attraction.
They tried but adding TM to something doesn't make it yours. Matt has ownership.

Adam Blampied from WhatCulture brought a really good reason as to why Miz and Maryse will probably win at Wrestlemania.
This is pretty much capping off the Total Divas season, and they'll use the other women watching the match and Nikki being incredibly dismayed at her losing her last match (Probably from a dirty win) as an emotional setup. Then, have John go on one knee behind her and "surprise" her to have a feelgood moment and a perfect way to end that season.

I would cry tears of joy if Miz and Maryse won at WM, esp cause I've totally written it off as a possibility.
RE: Roman and heelness etc. Having come back into Wrestling around WM last year, I actually don't feel super strongly about him one way or the other. He's mostly fine in the ring (I think his gear fucking sucks and his superman punch is poop to me, esp with AJ's phenomenal forearm), and I don't even think he's terrible on the mic. My problem is that the booking seemingly slides him into every major angle, even if it doesn't make sense for him to be there. It's like the people backstage can't help but try and slip him into scenarios that he doesn't need to be in.
The most recent example that I can remember is when they decided to have The Club have handicap matches with him, because why not. Then The Club gets their asses kicked, and nobody comes out of it looking any better. Roman doesn't have more heat, people just get annoyed with his booking. Or at least I do.
Having him be THE GUY doesn't make him boo. Turn him into a real, genuine piece of shit (the Undertaker promos are getting very close), and he could be a fantastic heel worth booing cause it's fun. This Undertake match at WM is the absolute perfect opportunity for this.

Really I thought it was creaking from taking five minutes to get up from the mat.Whose bright idea was it to drop this look?
The current Nic Cage hair just accentuates Taker's age.

Kurt could be too if he had just picked up DDP Yoga 10 years ago.
Yo, all he did was add a scarf and became the top dude this past year.

*DING!*
He was pretty jacked in the 80s. Perhaps on some controlled substances
I stand corrected. My ric flair Larry zbysko action figure two pack that I got as a kid was similar to those pics.
Eta- I used whiteout on fkairs face and turned flair into sting.

For those who are unaware, this show features a match between Dan Severn and Matt Riddle, along with matches featuring Glacier and Marty Jannetty.
Fuck me. Gonna need to try and watch this tomorrow.
kirk angel!
and flair was one of the precious few in the 80s that pretty clearly wasn't on the juice

Less than 18 hours away from Jim Cornette and a live mic. Only on the WWE Network.

Let's not imply Cornette is going to do anything other than go out and give a nice speech about the Rock N Roll Express.
He respects those guys too much to make it about himself in any way.
Stephanie McMahon and HHH give a tour of WrestleMania Axxess:

Off camera, Steph and HHH seem pretty ok to me.

This match
We all know how Lesnar/Goldberg's gonna go, right? Goldberg will immediately hit a spear and a jackhammer, Lesnar will kick out and recover, there will be a lot of striking and at like 8 minutes, Lesnar will hit an F5 for the 3 count.
Honestly, I'm most interested in whether or not Angle/Hardy's appear at Wrestlemania or the RAW after.

Ric was huge when he started... Lemme see if I can find a pic.
EDIT: Or pics...
When he first started in 1972/1973 this is what he looked like.
