I really want Bray Wyatt to win but can't honestly see Taker having two loses in a row.
I think Roman will win but maybe Rollins cashing in after.

[BBfanUSA]

Hideo Itami won the tournament over Balor.

He'll be making an appearance in the battle royal

[Iceman]

Oh I decided I'm not watching, F1 is on Sunday and the clocks change too. I'll read the results Monday. It really is a bore fest for me. The only two matches I care for is the Lesnar and Taker ones.

Just leaving this here.

I will be really surprised if Axel is not the first one eliminated from the Battle Royal.

Yep, they keep building him up just to push him down

Vince seems to hate most guys that are getting over naturally... I remember reading a story that Barrett's not supposed to give bad news out anymore because people cheer him when he does that and he's a heel.

It's also WM day! Almost 6 hours of coverage starting at 4 PM for me.

I think the first hour will be in the sun but other than that we should have a great WM.

I would be shocked if the Divas Match gets the opening spot but it would be pretty cool.

I think the Main Card will open with the Ladder Match
Rollins/Orton
Rusev/Cena
Taker/Wyatt
Sting/Triple H
Paige/AJ vs The Bellas
Lesnar vs Roman Reigns

I think this could be a great Wrestlemania, it did have a crummy buildup but none of the matches on the card are throwaways.

[Stu]

The build up to WrestleMania has been so lackluster this year that I think the show could come out of the blocks and surprise everyone by being really decent. I'm interested in seeing at least something from every match on the card bar the divas match which I can use anyway to see how fast I can make a tuna melt and roll a joint so every cloud.

The fact that Brock has resigned has ignited WrestleMania week which regardless of the state of the current product the whole thing kinda deserves. I'm still not sure why the production team have it in for thinking wrestling fans just go completely spunk buckets for Skylar Grey but whatever. It's probably still slightly less embarrassing than that guy from Saliva doing nu metal over a video package of the time Triple H and Jericho feuded over Steph's pretend pregnancy and their dog getting run over.

I can't wait to see will they buckle out on Reigns. Enjoy it. I'm going to watch WrestleMania XIX because it's ****ing class. Peace out!

[Stu]

I might be getting mixed up but isn't loads of it going to be in the sun? West coast and all that.

Oh wait daylight doesn't necessarily mean sun.

W/e. If Sting shows up to the dance in a T-Shirt I'm going to be really disappointed.

Probably. But the sun should be down or at least going down by around 7:30 ish local time.

Probably by the last hour.

They are using pillars again this year but they're thinner than ever and they actually are LED this year. I saw someone upload a instagram post where you could see them test the stage from outside the arena.

[Iceman]

Welcome back stu.

I think I might watch it. I'm severely hungover here and gonna sleep for the day

[Stu]

Expect something different from us. The atmosphere being West Coast and daylight presented some very unique challenges for us to overcome. The structure itself isn’t really tied to a particular thing like the city or arena, but we have this really unique thing where we can’t hide anything. We have to be open, [because] everybody’s going to see everything. I can’t do the theater magic and hide the bad parts. So we’ve had to work really hard. Everything had to tie in and feel like it was part of the image and the structure. It’s a unique set, a unique way of lighting the ring because of the sun. You’ll see some different search lights around there, and from a lighting point of view and the set, we’ve had to deal with having full sun on the set because you can’t hide anything. You’ll see it’s a different set from us this year.

Might be interesting seeing what they do for entrances in the sun. Some more physical props maybe? The idea of 'Taker coming out in daylight sounds mental.

What's the craic Eoin bud!

Spoiler:

Regarding Undertaker's entrance,

Word is that they have a custom made motorcycle for him

On SD Cole and Jerry were talking about which Taker is showing up...

Makes me think American Badass Undertaker with the abilities of the Deadman will show up.

Like the Druids show up making us think it's the usual Taker when...*Vroom* *Vroom* out comes the American Badass to "You're gonna pay"

By the way, if you haven't renewed the Network, Do it now. The server's probably going to be backed up later. I just did so I'm ready for WM.

[Iceman]

I'm only really looking forward to this the past day or so.

****ing walking dead being on at the same time.

[Stu]

I'm catching up on loads of NXT because I never really got that into it. It's obviously brilliant. Becky Lynch is like the closest I'll get to feeling national pride. Baron Corbin is like a Streets Of Rage boss. Brian Kendrick is back and in a main event with Prince Devitt for no ****ing reason.

It's the tits!

Obviously never played a PS2 wrestling game as he squandered the opportunity to lead the security up one side of the cage before climbing down the other.

[Iceman]

"If you fall and die I'm putting this on YouTube"

[Iceman]

The pictures of the set have hogans graphic in it. Still runnin wild

[BBfanUSA]

Bray Wyatt has reportedly sprained his ankle
http://wrestlechat.net/?p=508424

[Ramsay]

****kkk

[BBfanUSA]

So I guess if he can't go the Battle Royal is probably being moved back to the main card

Or maybe Taker open challenge?

[Ramsay]

If it just a mild sprain i can see him fighting through it
Or a 2 minute Taker squash :/

[Iceman]

Time to call up Finn balor to take his place

[Stu]

It's a sprain. They'll pump him full of painkillers and he'll float to the ring like Shawn did for most of the 90's. At worst they'll work a wanky angle match with a quick finish.
