    That was a bit weird with the fiend pointing at the Wrestlemania sign.

    His character has basically become undone in two days.

    Well done Vince. You managed to **** up a great gimmick right before wrestle mania

    Would of been much better if he came out and attacked cena instead of that ****ing mess

    Theres no substance to this match or even a story to warrant one. Cena tech wasn't at last years mania only a short unannounced appearance and the year before was the whole taker thing

    At least give Cena someone he can tear to shreds on the mike.

    Or maybe Vince doesn't want to remind us people can actually do promo's.

    Cena and Reigns would of been spectacular.

    Well that was easy for Reigns. Does that mean if Heath Slater had come out, he would be in a title match at Mania?

    And nice for Goldberg that the Fiend is the type to just let things go and move on.

    Totally agree. Fiend is a psychopath and he’s pointing at the WrestleMania sign. God they killed the one amazing character they had in 2 days

    I know I've said I'll stop watching smackdown but bar a power cut two weeks ago I've watched every one since they moved to fox. It's not 1995 WWE but the thing that annoys me is that WWE now has an amazing roster but they seem to want to annoy us the audience.

    And they’ll continue as long as there is an audience.

    God no, these foregone conclusion matches are utterly pointless.

    Brock/Ricochet. Shayna in the chamber. Rhea/Bianca. All results are/were 100% known.

    The most head wrecking thing WWE do is wash over what happened, The Fiend has held the Universal Title for a few months but last night there wasn't anything really talked about him losing it. They moved on so fast it makes the fans feelings or storylines worthless. They are so Bi-Polar it doesn't feel that connection, whereas you look at AEW or NWA who run alot on the crowd input week from week.

    WWE makes you feel like a f'n ejit for following stories or wanting continuity, it just doesn't matter anymore, they expect us to all have amnesia and forget last week. It's insulting. I recently start watching AEW and it seems smart, like "ohhhh I remember that little thing from 3 months ago now paying off" Look at Hangman.

    The whole fiend gimmick is finished after the loss to Goldberg. No sign of the fiend in the video showing Goldberg winning the title during a video on Smackdown.

    The fiend also didn't mention Goldberg once in his funhouse promo tonight.

    I'm done till the Smackdown and Raw before Wrestlemania.

    It's fair to say that Otis is over as **** with the audience. A big lad who can move in ways he's probably shouldn't just adds to his overness.

    Yeah, Otis is pretty much the opposite of what Vince sees as a superstar.
    how long until Sonya is revealed as working with Dolph?
    I'm thinking there'll be a Mania match, though will it be mixed tag, 2 separate matches or Otis vs Dolph with Mandy and Sonya in their corners?

    X Pac, yeah, but Hall didn't seem too keen to get out of his seat. Probably thought he'd tear a quad.
    Strange X Pac is now in as a member of rival groups.
    And technically this is only Hall's first HoF entry. Razor Ramon is who's in before.
    Remember when entrants were announced via video packages? Now they're just included in a list without even saying "Just announced" or anything. Like wasn't that JBL's first mention on tv?

    Will Bryan vs Gulak make the main show or preshow?

    I'm actually really excited for that match at EC. Those two, if given 15 minutes, will put on a massively good match. The type that if it was on AEW, there'd be people lining up to say how amazing it will be, and how fresh it is to see a company give them the chance.

    Bryan seems to love these sort of mini-feuds too. He'll put on a clinic with the hopes of elevating Gulak.
