I'd be fine with that also, but wasn't it 2000 they went out with a heel coming out on top? I know Seth cashed in MITB a few years ago to close, but that was a safe bet as crowd were always likely to pop for that. The crowd aren't going to be happy whatsoever with Reigns winning.

Could also close with Orton v Bray either.,

Owens is in a great position? One of the hottest Mania feuds in a while. Also think AJ vs. Shane could be fairly massive if Smackdowns ability to book feuds holds true. May even get AJ some attention from non-fans. I'm cautiously optimistic.

Yeah a lot of the matches are looking fairly obvious but outside Brock being Universal champ and KO being US (if their match is for the belt) , the title matches still feel fairly unpredictable for who walks out champ.

The most disappointing thing is that they'll close the show with Lesnar vs. Goldberg and it at best will be an alright ten minute match, and in all likelihood will not even give us that. Would be a fine match going second to last though.

Well, yeah, seasoned guys like Owens, Jericho, Styles, even Shane O Mac and Cena and Miz can easily sell their respective feuds and make it interesting. My PoV is the best guys should be headlining, not midcarding, which is what this card has done. Goldberg V Lesnar never needed the title. I do not see why the Wyatt family feud needed it either. You could have easily flipped the story around and have Orton do his whole barbershop moment with Wyatt at No Way Out and cost him the title. Jericho could have won Royal Rumble and faced Owens for the big title and they would have had even more material to do more awesome stuff. Styles Vs Cena could have happened again or at the very least, Styles could have defended against someone else... And lets not forget they have basically pushed down Ambrose to opening act. Its coz of these decisions that I think post Attitude WW(F)E has always sucked balls. And I assume it was no coincidence that Trips started getting big around that time.

Reigns-Taker won't be the last match on the card, I'm guessing. I hope it is, sicne if it's Taker's last match nothing else makes sense.

wouldn't it make more sense to have Roman beat Taker clean, and then next night have him gloat about ending Taker's career, echoing the streak ending. And you can go from there. (You could probably build a bit of Roman's character around him disrespecting legends. I mean, he already calls himself the Big Dog, it's his yard now, it builds itself basically)

Goldberg vs Lesnar is the biggest match on the card. People can wah about it all they like, but this is a fact. Worrying that it's 6th mania in a row main-evented by part-time stars, and that it will likely only go a minimal amount of time, but that's just how it is.

The only other option is Reigns vs Undertaker, which I wouldn't mind, but that match will probably be a wreck for various reasons as well.

Agree with that. I dunno maybe its just me, but I would be perfectly content if the match was a quick spot fest rather than a dragged out mess. I mean why on earth would anyone no matter their fandom want this match to get near 15 minutes? Yuck.

Aye, its grim though, that they still have to rely on the part timers to sell Mania so much.

Also as has been said here earlier the XFL 30 for 30 was good fun. Vince back then:laugh:

The below interview is referenced a lot, a desperate and volatile Vince basically getting worked in an interview.

FTR, I have no issues with Goldberg Vs Lesnar going last. When I said folks like Owens and Styles should be main eventing, I meant they should be in title feuds.
