forameus Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Video announcement from WWE, "Former World Champion Added to Battle Royal". Ooh, who's this? Someone big? A return? Some old legend coming in to get jobbed out? It's Mark Henry. Mark. Henry. f**k sake WWE. Still, got to see Cathy Kelly, who is just lovely.

Obviously a naked attempt to get Chinese viewers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I see they've now moved the SmackDown Women's match to the main card, but haven't replaced it with anything on the Kickoff Show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, there are so many filler diddies in the battle royal that if they needed to bring in returns or debuts they could easily just take out some. Hope they save him for the next SDLive though. Would be wasted in a battle royal that we all know Strowman is winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling WWE are going to pull a surprise winner out for the Battle Royal. Whilst it would be a slight push for Strowman, at this stage it would be an un-needed one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common sense prevails. Titles shouldn't be on the kickoff ever ever ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesnar - Goldberg is defo going under 8 minutes. One more match could maybe end up a squash though. I see your point, but still think concessions will be made. The length of last years was a total drag. I definitely don't want to watch anything longer than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sad thing is the battle royal is already one of the Kickoff matches. That and the Cruiserweight title match. Cruiserweight match is one of the matches I'm most looking forward to as well, gutted for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Oh right. Ah well. Best place for it. I'd have liked to have seen the CW match on the main show but the pre-show is probably the best place for it. I can't imagine anything other than the Smackdown women being on there from the main card. It's the three matches I'd have picked. Two of which would be absolutely pish.

Dave1875 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 From pictures it looks like they're really taking this "Ultimate Thrill Ride" thing serious.

mizfit Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Unless it's going to be Taker's last match then don't see the logic in that. I did read a few reports he was on his way out, and the doctors were suggesting he retired. I wonder if he's accepted it, and is giving Reigns the final rub.

forameus Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 That'd be surprising if that happened. Maybe they're going with a very short Goldberg/Lesnar match and know that that won't fly as an ending. Vince apparently always has the motto of sending fans home happy from Wrestlemania - either he doesn't think they'd be happy with a presumably short main event, or he thinks they'll be more happy with whatever he has planned for Reigns/Taker. Given Vince's raging stauner for the Big Dog, that doesn't bode well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
