Fastlane Tonight - in Cleveland!

[Jack Brickman]

I miss the "Sasha's ratchet" "No I'm not" chants. But I agree. She's amazing. She took a sick bump in that fatal four way match.

She's a great heel

They did those chants at the NXT event on Wednesday.

 

[MattyFos.]

Did she participate in it? I haven't watched this week yet.

I don't think so.

Tell me about Solomon Crowe. I've never seen or heard of him prior to NXT. Is he as big a deal as Balor, Owens and Itami?

I have no idea who he is, but they seem to be pushing him pretty hard based on the few episodes of NXT I've seen. He doesn't seem as good as Balor or Owens, though. Owens has had a couple of the best wrestling matches I've seen all year, and Balor almost always puts on a great show. I'm actually kind of surprised both guys haven't been called up to the WWE yet. We all know they could use that kind of actual talent.

Well Owens debuted in December so he's still getting acclimated. I think Balor debuted in September or October. I don't want them to get trashed on the main roster yet. I want a Wyatt or shield run as opposed to the Rose/Dallas treatment

Owens will make his way up later this year. I suspect they have him hunt down Zayn and go the exact same route as they did in NXT. Former friends, one is jealous & betrays the other.

Neville has to be the next man up. He has been in NXT for a long time. I have to believe he wins the Wrestlemania NXT Tournament.

Itami, while incredibly talented needs something to put him over with the fans. More mic, more personality. Not sure if his english has improved, but he always seems voiceless.

Balor should come up immediately. He has everything, and could easily run the WWE match model. He is already 33, so I would hate to see him waste even more time in NXT. I could see him play the Orton/Rollins heel role, but creative does suck.

 

[Real Deal]

Dumbest ending to a Raw heading into Mania i have ever seen.

 

[BMAN]

Poop ending.

 

[TheLand1287]

Yeah, that was awful. The whole build for this WrestleMania has been awkward. Having Axelmania close would've been a better move than that shit.

 

[elcheato]

Those boos for Reigns were hilarious. He is going to get eaten alive at Mania and the Raw the night after

 

[MoFlo]

The build has been pretty awkward overall, but I'm still looking forward to pretty much every match except the title match (only because Reigns will win).

 

[DJTJ]

Reigns is going to get booed out of the COUNTRY let alone the arena. Better pray he drops asap to Rollins so the boos will matter.

It's gonna be so bad.. He got mostly boos last night.

If they're intent on Reigns winning, they'll be smart to not put that match on last. However, I think it will go on last & it's gonna be hilarious when WrestleMania goes off the air with the crowd booing WWE's brand new "big time babyface"

Reigns is going to hold the belt for at least a year. They aren't going to ruin the first wrestlemania moment of the guy they are making the face of the company.
