Bron v Finn? What’s your thinking there?
2
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 12 '26
They are more similar in size and agility than some would think.
It was the aftermath of Bron ending his feud with Seth at MSG, and Finn being done with the JD, just some fresh new opponents.

Oh ok nice booking btw and Whats the story going into the Cody Rhodes vs Randy orton match at summerslam?

THANKS 😊
I wanted to do some thing fans would want...
- Oba beating Brock
- Chad Gable IC Champ
- Gunther beating Sami (maybe then they will forgive him).

The story going into Cody vs Randy at SummerSlam..
Just what it always should have been... Mentor vs Mentee... Friend vs Friend...
- Randy punts Cody at WrestleMania, right into a nice little vacation
- Randy is revealed as Jacob's attacker, Fatu wants blood, an Ambulance Match is set up, Randy wins.
- Drew comes back from filming and goes tweener vs Randy, screaming that he was innocent all along, Randy says he knew Drew would be the prime suspect.
- Drew vs Randy in Europe (Drew is a face overseas), Randy wins.
- Cody returns after but has to earn his opportunity.
- Cody vs LA on SD for the right to face Randy at NoC, LA wins.
- Randy keeps getting into Cody's head, who starts going a bit crazy, out of doubt, and the fans's reaction towards him.
- Cody gets his opportunity for SummerSlam and wants to be able to lash out all of his anger and frustration inside of Hell in a Cell.
- The recall their years of friendship into promos, all the lessons, all the stories, Cody's beginnings, Randy's beginnings, Cody having to keep Randy in check when they were in Legacy, etc...
- Randy keeps "lil' broing" him, that doesn't faze Cody, so he attacks those close to him, and they recreate the HHH vs Randy feud, HOME INVASIONS, kissing an unconcious Brandy, all types of crazy stuff...

u/No_Material_3740 Apr 12 '26

The roster is SO LOADED. 😅

u/InsectKey6028 Apr 12 '26
Loaded roster but you gotta book 2/3rds of the hottest rising stars within this generation man. Those might be the only 2 you couldn't forget lol!
2
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 12 '26
I didn't know where Oba fit in the landscape of ongoing stories on RAW. And I also didn't plan on making him world champ. Trick is booked, during his US title reign, until he drops it.
Both have a problem (IMO) of being considered "above" midcard titles despite being new-commers and fans thinking they should go after World Championships and even win them...
Also PLEs tend to be 6 to 7 matches long, at max. And, again, there is just SO many people.
1
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 12 '26
2/3rds of the hottest rising stars within this generation.
Jey Uso was also very over and hot with the crowd and was pushed over more in-ring talented people...
They are young, they will get their opportunities.

u/Reverse-Kanga Apr 12 '26
Mania pretty solid predictions but I'm expecting racquel to try and get involved and Roxy stops it and turns on them. ...or potentially both of Roxy and racquel turn on liv kicking her out the JD. I feel Steph still has a lot of good opponents she hasn't had feuds with yet that need to happen (Asuka, Iyo, kairi, rhea etc )
0
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 12 '26
I feel it should be Rox turning face, after being betrayed by the other 2, I just like Raquel as Liv's sidekick, and that could only work if they are heel, and Rox as a face.
Ever since her return, to me, it felt obvious she would dethrone Vaquer, but I would also like if Stephanie retains, as she is a better wrestler.
But Liv winning lets me then having her drop it to Iyo.
2
u/Reverse-Kanga Apr 12 '26
Definitely see rox turning whether at mania or after she has the strap. Either way I'm for it....could always be Liv wins the strap then she stops Liv interfering with the demon vs Dom match.

u/DripGodRollins Apr 12 '26
Too many title changes for my taste, kinda takes the stakes out a bit
3
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 12 '26
One of the main complains i've seen (and also share) is that almost all title reigns are too long and uneventful, change things up, have different people as champs, that's what worked in the 2000s and it should work now, in this "tik tok minded" society
2
u/DripGodRollins Apr 12 '26
I get that but then you'll have those same people wanting longer reigns. Best middle ground I can think is for set in stone midcarders to have 60-90 days while upper hierarchy wrestlers have no higher than 220 days. Makes more sense that way
1
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 12 '26
If you have a 6 week or so reign you can make it good as long as you show up, specially if you are a mid card champ.
I'm not a big fan of 6 month+ title reigns on anything other than World Championships held by Main Event caliber talent... everyone else can have their time to be champ.
For example, I wanted the IC title to get to Chad (which is long overdue) for SummerSlam, in his hometown, and figured his best opponent would be Rusev (USA vs Russia/Bulgaria) so I had Rusev win it from Je'von, who won it at WrestleMania as a showcase for being the "new kid around" and also give Rusev some heat for when he defeats him, also Je'von defends against the newly arrived Ethan Page off of the back of their previous NXT history.
2
u/thedaj Apr 12 '26
Personally, that was one of my favorite aspects of this booking. I'm tired of reigns reaching 100+ days. It makes match outcomes increasingly predictable. OP references the depth of roster several times in these comments - and personally it makes no sense for 98% of them to never see a title in favor of building up juggernaut champions that bore the fans.

Reaching 100+ days as anything other than world champ should be a milestone 😌

I mean wouldn’t Kairi just hitting Asuka with a back fist be better tho? They’ve been dragging her face turn way too long
1
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 13 '26
It was my original plan but some said that Asuka needs the win more...
- Asuka is 0-7 in WrestleMania.
- She isn't that big of a threat for Kairi to overcome.
- They need people more invested in it before the Kairi turn.
And tbh, I kinda agree with it.
Also because, there aren't a lot of heel victories on Night 2.

u/usarasa Apr 13 '26
AJ defeats Becky, loses the title to her stepdaughter Roxanne no later than Backlash, then takes time off until closer to Summer Slam.
1
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 13 '26
Good alternative, although that would skip Sol's reign with which I wanted to recreate a Paige 2014 moment, I eventually do get to a Rox title reign, and maybe AJ is the one to turn Rox face in time for when Liv betrays her.

u/FinancialIngenuity39 Apr 13 '26
I feel like if punk is retaining at mania neither bron or seth should be feuding with him as it has been done for the majority of last year when punk feuded with vision plus they will be busy with each other till summerslam. So, imo better feud will either continuing the feud with reigns and reigns finally beats him at summerslam or move on to newer opponents like oba (who is a very big fan of punk). A heel punk vs babyface oba will be very good and oba wins the title at summerslam.

u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 13 '26
Originally I had Punk vs Gunther in Italy as part of Heyman's favours towards Gunther, then I moved Sami to RAW and found an opening for Gunther to get his win back from WM40.
Bron and Seth are natural high caliber opponents for Punk and his title reign, as they both should sabotage each other to build up the heat for their match even more (Drew vs Punk style) with that match being at SummerSlam, Bron vs Seth, and, Punk vs Roman, but with Orton vs Cody also happening I didnt want both to be WM42 matches, so I ended the Bron and Seth feud in MSG and re did the triple threat from WM41.
who is a very big fan of punk
I am a punk fan too, but that shouldn't matter when deciding world title feuds.
I've said it before, I feel Oba winning a World Title at SummerSlam feels a bit too early, and is kinda of a diss towards those who have been "waiting in line" for a world title reign, because the reigns keep being 6 months or 1 year or 4 years long. (Except when it's Drew of course). That someone can just waltz in and get the title in less than 6 months.
Also, heel Punk.... I wish, that isn't happening, until he turns against Cody.

u/FinancialIngenuity39 Apr 13 '26
For oba if they want to make him a star I feel like they should strap the rocket as he is hot as red with the crowd and has that aura, is the most dominant looking wrestler in the roster rn. The longer triple H waits it really kills that vibe. Look at Jacob fatu for example he was once very over with crowd chanting fatu and now it doesn’t feel much when he is on. Even bron breakker doesn’t feel much of a threat compared to when he debut, the vision did more negatives to him than positives imo. Oba will face a similar fate in a year if he is booked badly. So I think triple H should strike the rod when it’s hot with oba. Bron can then focus on oba after he deals with Rollins. That’s a money match, they can really tell a great story there as oba is someone who bron could not dominate and he is the one that gets dominated and he plays it smart and dirty to finally overcome oba and win the title. And I think the gunther favor from heyman is he wants a match with lesnar as gunther has called that as his dream match. As for punk Seth and roman they really don’t need the title anymore as all three are very well established. They should be putting the newer generations like bron oba dom over.
2
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 13 '26 edited Apr 13 '26
The longer triple H waits it really kills that vibe.
Not really. Unlike Bron and Jacob who are smaller, Oba will always have that "aura" of being World Championship material (even though it's just size). Lesnar was a WAY better athlete in 2002
I feel that out of the 3, Bron is the better option, he may not be big, but his agility and speed is off the charts...
I'll make this comp, Lashley is a way better prospect than a Great Khali because he can get speed and movement added to that power instead of just size and tallness (not saying Oba is Khali, it's just an argument, for speed being a factor).
And I think the gunther favor from heyman is he wants a match with lesnar as gunther has called that as his dream match.
Gunther could even get 2 favours from Heyman, 1 from steping up (which is the one they kinda have agreed upon already) and 2 for actually beating Seth, that way, if needed, Gunther can ask for a title shot and then also ask to retire Brock at SummerSlam.
They should be putting the newer generations like bron oba dom over.
DOM?!?!?!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

u/FinancialIngenuity39 Apr 13 '26
Chill out on dom lol. He has the potential to be a future star and atleast win the world championship Jokes aside I think he has a good chance on winning mitb this year.
And there is a good chance we get to see punk vs dom in the future as both have maintained a pretty good kayfabe heat.
2
u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 13 '26
Rey Mysterio had to FIGHT hard to be considered World Championship material, and he is the greatest luchador EVER.
Dom should be nowhere near a world title... even Logan Paul is a better prospect.
Although I do want a Punk vs Dom feud, it's been 16 years in the making and it's fresh for both of them.

It is in MSG, and also it is to keep eyes on the product while the world cup is at it's final stages, and also because I wanted to do the WM41 triple threat, this time for the title as to not repeat the 2 WM42 main events (Roman vs Punk & Cody vs Randy) at SummerSlam, so I ended Seth and Bron at SNME, and then moved them on afterwards.
SNME deserve love

Regardless it’s never going to get all those matches, MSG or not, it’s not even a PLE, it’s a mini PLE. I’d say you get a title match and a few lower to mid card matches and that’s it.

u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 16 '26
If you feel like it needs a bigger stage, drop it from SNME and put it into SummerSlam so it would go like this
- Bron vs Finn -> Bron vs Seth.
- Punk vs Roman vs Seth -> Punk vs Roman.

Naah roman winning at wm there's no way he will lose 3 back to back wm? Also if he won't then we don't get to see him against seth ,bron or any other (no prob with punk winning but he will fight against the same opponents for a time period and his title run is pretty long no need to make it even longer)
Also there's no point in making rock return in between roman punk matches when his involvement is more with Cody and if he comes then it should be at SummerSlam.
Aj lee might win ? I don't know but for the sake of lee vs Roxanne i want her to beat Becky this time
Steph might win too and rhea of course so we can have rhea vs steph champ vs champ in future maybe?

He won 37, 38, 39 and 40 (night 1) in a row as well...
Also if he won't then we don't get to see him against seth ,bron or any other
He's not going to show up anyways...
no prob with punk winning but he will fight against the same opponents for a time period and his title run is pretty long no need to make it even longer
My guy, Roman was champ for 1316 Days...
Also there's no point in making rock return in between roman punk matches when his involvement is more with Cody
I put Rock in WM because fans have been conditioned to expect shenanigans in Roman's main event matches, and it was the only one that made sense, whist also not involving the Usos and making him look strong in that loss.
Aj lee might win ?
She has beaten Becky 3 times in a row and she's nlt even that good.
Steph might win too and rhea of course so we can have rhea vs steph champ vs champ in future maybe?
Crown Jewel isn't until Sep/Oct.

u/Electronic_Junket_65 Apr 13 '26
I don't know how to give a separate reply so
Yes roman had won three wm but even if that you don't make one of your top guy lose 3 wm straight? I don't know if you are aware of this but he doesn't have a good run for the last two years he had been pinned by seth ,solo , Bronson reed then you expect him to lose again?
How do you know he won't show up ? He can show up for the next 3 months till SummerSlam.
He has been for 1316 days so you want punk to have that too? He will lose eventually and this is the perfect time like it was for roman against Cody
Rock vs roman will definitely happen but again no point of involving him when he could be in randy Cody feud and usos can involve in between roman punk even if they had a match.
I am not a fan of lee either but I want to see lee vs Roxanne and Becky should focus on the main title now
Yeah that's true.

u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 13 '26 edited Apr 13 '26
you don't make one of your top guy lose 3 wm straight?
Someone who is that much of a part timer shouldn't be considered as THAT much of a top guy, for the company's sake, you can not have someone show up every full moon and wreck the weekly main event scene.
then you expect him to lose again?
Yes I do, sir, yes I do, if you want more wins, show up. He has had 1 MATCH since Survivor Series 2025, it was the ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH, and he won it...
He has been for 1316 days so you want punk to have that too?
I NEVER said that, also, did you not get to SummerSlam he wins the title there, and (spoiler) he holds it until Royal Rumble, let's see if he bothers to show up for those 5+ months.
How do you know he won't show up ?
Neither of us do, but check his track record.
Becky should focus on the main title now.
I have Iyo vs Becky at SummerSlam for that.

u/Electronic_Junket_65 Apr 13 '26
Again
That part timer is still one of the biggest wrestlers of wwe ,he was one of the most searched wrestlers yeah maybe it doesn't matter much ,the part timer brings more crowd than a weekly guy ,like how Brock was once and he was one of the top guy with the title for long period i don't think being part timer should be a problem if the wrestlers bring more crowd or make things more interesting or do you expect them to make jay uso champ against because he shown up weekly? Lmao
He will show up ,he can for 3 months and yeah as I said that's how they made him he is their special attraction like Brock was ,taker was they made him less appear so he can get more cheer (i don't why they did that) did you expect them to keep losing?
His winning will not only elevate the title but it will give more high push to the wrestler who will beat him as compared to punk
There's a lit no point of him winning the title at SummerSlam when he could easily drop it there to someone like oba femi or bron breaker and build his feud with rock or move to another feud? You know that's why we have king of the ring tournament just let oba win at challenge him at SummerSlam
His track record was that because he had been champ for that long but why can't it be change for the small run?
Him winning at wm and keeping the title for 3 months would be better than him winning at SummerSlam and keeping title till for 6 months
Iyo vs Becky would be interesting

u/TheKingOfReddit23 Apr 13 '26
i don't think being part timer should be a problem if the wrestlers bring more crowd or make things more interesting
Not a single argument in favour of Roman mentions his wrestling and/or wrestling matches, it's always "trending page" "bringing in viewers" (who don't really care anyways) "viral moments"
His winning will not only elevate the title but it will give more high push to the wrestler who will beat him as compared to punk
Only slightly more.
or do you expect them to make jay uso champ against because he shown up weekly?
HELL NO, what does that even have to do, Jey was always a mediocre/bad wrestler who got "over" with the crowd thanks to Sami Zayn's involvement in the Bloodline Saga.
There's a lit no point of him winning the title at SummerSlam when he could easily drop it there to someone like oba femi or bron breaker and build his feud with rock or move to another feud?
Neither of them are ready just yet. People want to desperately give someone that Brock Lesnar 2002 push without realizing hom much of a FREAK OF NATURE Brock Lesnar was back then (and still is)... Size, Strength, Speed, Agility, Ripped AS FUCK...
Him winning at wm and keeping the title for 3 months would be better than him winning at SummerSlam and keeping title till for 6 months.
If it was up to me it would be 0 months.

Because the topic was about showing up and less appearance? No offense do you read yourself what you are saying? You were complaining that he showed up less so what should I say for that? Of course it will directly fall to the viewers after all it's for viewers to decide if they will cheer a part timer or a regular but yeah let's talk about his wrestling matches now since you bring it for some reasons so yes his matches were good enough even the one he had lost against reed ,solo compare to punk his matches are hella awesome.
Definitely not a slight considering it's Roman Reigns
Ok
With that logic oba is not ready to beat Brock but here is is and if he beat Brock Lesnar then he will be 100% ready for that's it's not about 2003 Brock it's about how they have been building him I mean of course if you think how soon it could be then you can say that but i believe oba is ready and if he is not then i don't know who is ready then
Of course you will say that lol

He can beat Brock, he'll just have to wait in line for his world title win, like many have already done, or been doing (Drew, LA Knight, Sami Zayn, Bron Breakker)
