      One arm and a leg. I’d be inclined to pay it for mania tho for 2 night but not for a b level PPV.

      Suppose bigger arena/stadium etc 'might' make tickets more affordable but it's WrestleMania very near our own backyard and it would justify the spend

      Guess we'll wait and see

      I'm guessing the timing of the 'announcement' might suggest it's 'international'

      If it was Vegas they could of just waited til next week when there back in the States

      Who knows

      So going by the weird entrance order on Smackdown, I guess it's safe to say Bianca and Jade are winning? Like it was Bayley, Naomi, Damage Control, Bianca then Jade. Had me confused as to what type of match it was. Thought might have been a 3 way tag.

      It's either Jade and Bianca winning or Bianca turning. Cos that's 100% happening at some point but I don't think it's going to be tonight. Possibly closer to SummerSlam...

      I'd say Bloodline might move into a feud with Lashleys group The Pride next. Would be a good way of getting the brothers Tonga into the tag scene.

      Nick Aldis has announced that Bobby Lashley has been PULLED from his match in the King of the Ring Tournament after not being cleared to compete.

      He has been replaced by Pride stablemate Angelo Dawkins, who will face Tama Tonga in the first round.

      So, storyline wise, is The Rock the one who signed the new members of The Bloodline?

      Going for the Cargill/Belair final?

      Since it wasn't clear, is the Cody/Logan match just champ vs champ or are titles on the line?

      Melo vs Orton should be good.

      Just thinking again while watching, will we get a midcard title for the women? Especially with them introducing one on NXT.

      That was really good Smackdown. They've really made KOTR/QOTR feel important by having big names in it. Surprised in the matches I enjoyed though.

      I'll say it again, Nia has been great since she returned, I'm eating crow here. Her match with Naomi was pretty great. I also think this was one of Bianca's best showings as a singles with Piper.

      On the men's side I think Tama had some great presentation and having Orton tease a feud with him makes him feel important. Solo has a great look at the moment even if I'm not sure he's fully convinced me in his 'underboss' vibe yet. Guessing he hasn't spoken to Roman and is lying. Orton/AJ slapped but that's hardly a surprise.

      Yeah it was odd. I think Logan is a good choice for a challenger but Cody saying he needs that title for the Grand Slam made it seem like it could be title for title. I really don't want Cody with both though, I know they can worm their way out of it but still. As for a women's midcard title, I think it's needed. Would love if the winner of the QOTR was the inaugural champ too.

      Seeing the brackets again, it's funny that Michin and Ivy are both in the tournament while also being in the NXT North American tournament. Not that Ivy is in the next round of QotR and Michin likely won't be either.

      Yes Nia is great on her return

      It's seems every guest on Paul's podcast is his next feud

      I think Nia winning by count out of DQ is the way to go (though I actually expect a Tiffany/Cargill semi final), agreed @ThePott Nia has been very very solid in the ring since she's come back and would be an ideal candidate to take the belt from Bayley in a heelish manner

      Solid Smackdown. A lot of wrestling. I'm fine with Logan Paul being the contender as he at least gives Cody something new to work against other than "Dusty was your dad"

      Not sure does Cody need the US title

      Plz give Tama Tonga a better finisher, ideally one that lends itself to his irritated gremlin gimmick.

      😂😂 I saw that clip earlier and thought someone had dubbed it

      Bloodline isn't working for me, solo dressing like a circus ringmaster and has zero charisma to lead a group

      I Thought Stratton would have been a good choice for queen of the ring and would have gone well with her gimmick. She's killing it since moving up and is getting over
