Road To WrestleMania 31 - Week 2


THE HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT! Oh wait, it wasn't a big deal after all. With a confrontation at the beginning of Raw setting up a match between Bryan and Rollins that night to determine who would face Reigns at Fastlane and then the winner of that match will face Lesnar at WrestleMania, at least WWE did something/actively doing something. Only one week after the blunder at Royal Rumble and the #CancelWWENetwork trend feels like miles away, we have rumours all over the shop which pretty much confirm the whole WrestleMania card this year, Reigns is a tweener and a stupid team of two talents.

Although the announcement wasn't as significant as I thought it got the job done, it got Bryan involved with the title picture and put Reigns in a tweener position to make him look like a complete beast at Fastlane ready for Lesnar at 'Mania. Plus it keeps Rollins significant while he waits for Orton to turn up. We've heard all the rumours and the card is all but confirmed by this point, Reigns vs Lesnar, Bryan will lose at Fastlane it is obvious. Sting vs Triple H, the confrontation at Fastlane will directly lead into a match at 'Mania, hopefully finally getting rid of The Authority. 'Taker vs Wyatt, The match everyone is uncertain about because of The Streak being broken, exciting nonetheless. Bryan vs Ziggler, Ziggler costing Bryan his chance at Fastlane, turning him heel and giving the IWC/Smarks a big bulging boner at 'Mania (yes I am included in that category). Cena vs Rusev, Hopefully elevating Rusev to extreme heights and leaving Cena open to a good storyline where he doesn't know if he's The Guy any more, Orton vs Rollins, Orton is looking to return at some point and finish what he started with Rollins and 'Mania. There's gonna be Ambrose and IC Title clashing aswell. Plus the tag break ups like Goldust vs Stardust, Miz vs Mizdow and the Tag belts with The Usos vs The Ascension, with others in the mix as well. Plus there's the Divas, so a lot going on, yet nothing really happening at all.

One more thing I'd like to touch on: It is highly possible that WWE swerves us and changes all this, it is completely possible, Reigns hasn't even been confirmed for the'Mania event yet as well as all the MitB stuff as well (Thanks Dave at That Wrestling Blog!), so WWE could well and truely keeps us on our toes. If there is one thing that I want to be true however, that I hope will not change for what it looks like, is Ziggler vs Bryan. At the moment Ziggler & Ryback have been teaming. Now nothing against the pairing, like everyone knows on TWF, I love Ziggler, but another random thrown together tag team for the sake of a tag team!? These two are great amazing athletes (especially Ziggler) and letting the Show Off do his thing against Bryan at 'Maina is a match made in heaven right now. I DO NOT WANT Ziggler & Ryback vs Big Show & Kane, I will not stand that. You have a great match with Ziggler vs Bryan, if you want that match replace Ziggler with Rowan and then it would make more sense. I saw Ziggler with a belt that said "The Lil Guy" on it similar to Ryback's belt on Smackdown. This is the first step to a tag team and I don't want it. If it's that match at Fastlane, it's fine but if it's at 'Mania I will turn off my TV and walk away an watch something else.
