Wonder how the Saudis feel about having 2 women's matches this time

J. Marston

Intrigued to see the crowd reaction to a woman who calls herself The Man, a woman who calls herself The Boss and a woman who calls herself the best at everything.

CastorTroy

Slightly off topic but looking at the women left in the Queens's crown, does Zelina have a nickname yet?

Remember Lacey and Natalya? Both women completely dropped their gimmicks, from clothing to behaviour.

It will be very interesting to see if their top women stars get similar treatment or if they push the envelope. Drop the gimmicks and it will backfire big time.

Silence, the reaction will be silence like it is to everything on these shows.

Vince has discovered his fake crowds sounds buttons now though, so it wont be silence anymore!!

Pentecost

How do you say "This is awesome" in Arabic?

CastorTroy

I'm guessing they can't say "Holy s#!t"

PTH2009

It's a great PPV on paper

How I would love to see Edge vs Rollins and Goldberg vs Lashley be serious bloodbaths like there storylines suggest but PG era and all that

That button will need to be pried from his cold dead hands before they bury him.

Might be a bit tame for the Saudis. Should call it a head v head match.

RollieFingers

All these Saudi Wrestlemanias are the most obvious case of sports entertainment washing you could find.

The whole thing stinks, especially when you consider it's WWE and their past 9/11 shows etc. It's laughable!

Rumour has it his corpse will be pressing the boo button as the coffin is lowered into the ground.

I was kinda hoping for a Xavier win

PTH2009

Have a feeling Brock is winning

I'll put the mortgage payment on reigns then.

The fact Michael Cole has started mentioning Brock’s reign length, and Reigns being within about 100 days of it, Reigns aint losing! Cant see Reigns dropping the belt any sooner than WM, and even at that, dont see who can take it off him!

Drew maybe and he finally gets his mania moment in front of fans

daithi1989

Did think it could be Drew, but he appears to be heading straight after Reigns (considering he’s in matches with Usos this past wk), so cant see it being dragged out 4-5 months..

Jey Uso if he wins the RR

PTH2009

Xavier Woods having a change of heart and heading to Saudi, hope Finn does win it though as he can do more with the King Gimmick

PTH2009

So

Spoiler Warning

The undertaker is in Saudi

Please ignore the murdered journalist, abuses against women and the LGBT community and the obvious sports-washing and enjoy Doudrop vs Zelina Vega. Rotten!

J. Marston

It's a shame a card as good as this is being wasted on these nothing shows.

PTH2009

Feels odd the event been on at such a good time for us for a change but with work what can ya do

4pm- pre show

5pm-8pm- main show

Necro

Kid has been looking forward to Reigns/Lesnar for weeks and the card is pretty stacked at a watchable time so I'm all set for it anyways

TimesArrow

The show is a farce and hasn’t even begun. They announced Roman v Brock would be no DQ and then a few minutes later the stipulation is revoked? And now lashley v Goldberg is falls count anywhere? The show has more stips than extreme rules PPV
