World Wrestling Entertainment Presents: Wrestlemania XXXVIII, A Two-Night Premium Live Event
 

Night One:

https://i.redd.it/2i5gu6ikj2r81.jpg

I'm here for Seth and his mystery opponent (which could be any number of different people at this point).

From what I understand, Austin has been getting in massive shape for this. Could be way off, but I don't see this as a one off like the dirt sheets have been claiming. I get the feeling this could be similar to Edge. Take a few bumps and see how his body holds up. If it holds up, come back and get the massive payday from Vince for 2-3 matches.

I am pretty excited for Austin and Cody. I mean it's fucking Steve Austin. The women's matches will probably be very good too but the rest is pretty bad!

Corbin and Drew could be pretty good though.

yeah tomorrow looks like a better night

A lot of tonight’s card seems like stuff you’d see on any random Smackdown. But the Rollins stuff interests me and I’ll always tune in for Stone Cold.

Hoping Bianca and Becky tear the house down. Worried they might be told to tone it down to not upstage Charlotte and Ronda.

Is anyone from the board in attendance this weekend?

This is going to be electrifying! And not just because I literally electrocuted myself earlier, though that helped get me pumped.

Feeling cautiously pumped... felt really pumped before the Royal Rumble and we know how that worked out...... Hope the show is cool...

Is there a 3rd night where the stars have their matches?

The stars are scattered about the most STUPENDOUS TWO NIGHT WRESTLEMANIA OF ALL TIME. And the main event of night 2 is THE BIGGEST MATCH OF ALL TIME.

I love Booker T you guys. Would have liked for him to join AEW instead of like Paul Wight but yeah, I really enjoy it when he's on.

bradshaw talking about the briscos dem boys

imagine if the Briscos actually show up. That would def be a shocker.

they were everywhere else last night they could show up for seth

Imagine being Pete Dunne. Called up to the Main Roster for a Mania match. Get called Butch, then lose your spot in the match cos the other guy dropped someone on their head.

omg the dude with taker shaved into his dome ahahahahaha

All Nightmare Long, nice. Love Death Magnetic.

I did, because they didn't have Mania betting lines unfortunately.

Yeah man a great album.

lol that graphic of Charlotte is what she wishes she looked like after all the surgeries.

Have they confirmed any matches on this, or just hype videos?

The biggest question of Mania weekend: Will Drew destroy Madcap Moss’ trophy with his sword?

Let's get it out there. What are you eating for Mania?

I have Chick-Fil-A nuggets and a lot of them. I already ate the Mac and Cheese though. Sauces are the Garlic Ranch, Polynesian (for Roman) and Chick-Fil-A Sauce. Not a kings feast no but I'll be satisfied because I also have fudge covered nutter butters. No not a kings feast a modest proposal to oneself you may say, but I'll be sated.

Jake Paul so much better than Logan Paul, go steal that thunder.

I had a bunch of points from Pizza Slut saved up so I got a stuffed crust pepperoni loves with mushrooms and bell peppers added and some breadsticks and cinnamon rolls.

Wanted to go to this local place for pizza but they had like a 2 hour wait because everyone goes there now that theyve discovered its randomly some of the best pizza on earth. Didnt feel like waiting today because I hadn't eaten in 2 days due to not feeling well.

Hope it’s not Cody tbh. Just feels flat.

Rumors abounding backstage at Mania that the office is in a "tizzy" and that certain "doors" have been blasted open and what lies beyond the threshold is none other than the feared Great O-Khan!

Pair of obnoxious cunts that are probably cornholing each other on the side.

Okay Jake Paul in WWE makes more sense than about anything right now.

They know what they are doing. They are probably the best trolls on the planet at this point. They are getting insanely rich off people hating them lol

King is killing on the dad jokes tonight lol

Imagine Steve Austin vs Jake Paul shoot fight next year at Mania. IDK Why but I LIKE IT. Good odds on both sides!

Oh man, that’s makes so much sense.

I would be very happy with this.

Which comes with its own issues if someone despises them enough to decide to plug them. Not like that would be a first.

The thing with Jake and Logan is ... Logan has never won a fight. He's lost two fights against KSI, by decision and he lost badly to Floyd Mayweather.

Jake actually has some credit to his name at this point and with another couple of wins in the ring he may actually be quite legit. Especially if he starts boxing actual boxers.

I don’t know the difference between the Pauls, but I can tell you that they’re tailor-made for wrestling. They’d probably have already been in the business had it not been in the state it’s been for their adult lives.

Just had "baked ziti" and garlic bread with mozzarella... chest and left arm hurt now

It's for the better. They can be an asset in a way that nobody really has been for WWE with their huge followings. It's a big value especially if they are good. I'm not sold on Logan but yeah pretty sure Jake will be able to do the character stories no problem.

What's the place with the best pizza... any pics

:rofl:

Wow does sound good though maybe you should try to go for a walk and have some water. Whatever you do it's important that you don't lay down and close your eyes. After a meal like that you're sure to not wake up in time for Mania.

You'll need coffee or tea as well. Open the window get some air because if you're heart is under attack you may as well have some fresh air.

Love the video package with mysterio getting his mask taken off and he has to hide his face, because obviously nobody has seen his face..besides the year plus period in wcw he had no mask.:roll:

Has Kofi Kingston had a haircut or is it just the picture that makes it look like he’s got it short?

Ohhhhhh I like that. I'd love to try and go to Mania MSG, tickets will be so expensive though.

I wish that New Day picked an honorary third member for this match to have made it a six man so that Butch would get a shot.

I love salmon.

I have 0 care factor when it comes to Sheamus and his group. Major League of Nations vibe.

I'll get some pics next time I go. It's called Melody's Coastal Cafe, and it's been like a typical restaurant for a few years but they started making pizza recently and it is god tier. I guess they used to run a pizza place up "north" somewhere (I think they said Ohio, not sure though) and decided to add it to the menu here. Sooooo good. V similar to like NY/New Haven style pizza.

It's better than Frank Pepes was when I went last summer, that's for sure. Not as good as Owl's Nest Pizza Parlor in Saranac Lake, NY was though. Owl's nest is one of my 2 favorites ever. They also had the poutine that made me fall in love with poutine in the first place and is still the best I've had.

How amazing is Jerry Lawler, he has been working kayfabe stories for 52 years. He just lives for it.

Kofi & Woods as a team doesn’t do it for me either. Of the New Day configurations, they are the least interesting.

This is now the pizzamania thread.

Currently grilling some whole chicken wings. Will leave them unsauced but with 3-5 sauces on the side. Buffalo, BBQ, and Mango Habanero will definitely be in the rotation. Debating to put others out there. Will consult with the family. I’ll follow up with additional information when received.

Have they said what opens the show tonight?

They haven't.

I watched a WWA PPV recently. It’s weird to experience Lawler doing commentary anywhere else. Besides that Feb-Nov 2001 stretch, he’s been with the WWE for almost 30 years now.

i'ma little pumped

25 minutes to go!

According to someone claiming to screenshot something from Fightful Select:

Yeah it's Mania! It's okay to be pumped!

Drew had such a great match with Lashley last year that I'm hoping he gets lucky and they've come up with some good stuff for him and Corbin.

Fireworks, presumably.:eek:

I would think Becky vs Bianca open.

If KO Show is closing, they will probably have one of the tag matches as a cooldown before the KO Show, after Charlotte vs Ronda which would be before that.

Fair point lol

Yikes if true @ putting Drew in the dreaded 2 spot that Jericho buried as the reason he knew it was time to leave WWE.

Becky and Bianca should close.

Those green beans dont look right, I would skip those Slik :|

Yeah how come the seafood looks heavily seasoned but the sides look completely unseasoned

I concur about the beans

Guys don't make him feel bad about the beans. It's the midwest they don't know.

For those wondering (I assume many), my chicken wings are heavily seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne. There will be no blandness in this household.

lies

Dry rub chicken wings are on point, so good!

I didn't want to say anything because I was actually a little worried that the grilled chicken wings would be bland and dry, flavorless without the sauces you had in mind. I wanted to say "please lather them thick before you grill you'll want more flavor" but I see that you're two steps ahead of us here. You've got your seasoning game on point and are ready for a fancy dance on your taste buds with each bite!

Byron Saxton usually busts out a great tux for Mania. It’s sad I am more excited for that than most of the matches.

Let’s be clear here fellas. Seasoning overall isn’t the issue. The salmon and shrimp look great! Clearly this place knows how to season liberally. So maybe the sides and bland on purpose? I don’t know.

I’m also doing an indirect grilling method to avoid dryness. I’m gonna call you Dallas to my Adam, because we are on the same Page.

Oh this explains everything.

The salmon does look really good tho

If I had to predict a Mania opener, I’d go with either Seth or Becky’s match. They treat the Mania opener as an important spot, even though it could be used better to build a show in other ways.

WrestleMania prediction: Becky is going to look hot af tonight.

You are a part of a discreet and mysterious society that keeps Long John's Silvers in business, how did find yourself on board this boat and if quality of food isn't reason enough to abort ship, what is?


Just kidding I love LJS I never eat it but if I saw one near me I fucking would get some fish and chips and hush puppies igaf

Shucky ducky.

Quack quack.

Their grilled menu isn't half bad. You shoulda got hush puppies instead, tho

wish they'd bring back their corn on the cob...so buttery and bad for you. mmm

Went to a diner and had a cheeseburger club that always hits the spot. Back in time for Mania.

Can’t really say I’m more than just a little pumped. I’m sure it’ll be a fine enough show and all but I don’t have any real investment. Hopefully an enjoyable couple of hours of wrestling the next two nights.

480p ass Peacock...

I made tacos and copy cat Sonic Frito Chili Cheese Wraps (red onion, Hormel beanless chili, medium cheddar, and of course Frito Originals)

Guru Dave probably like 3 mins ahead of us again watching in India while we watch on Peacock...

Damn... thought "damn this sucks" 1.5 seconds into this guy singing...

ABOVE THE FRUITED PLAINS

Definitely one of the most resilient proteins. That or chicken thighs.

Same. Real fucking your cousin music.

this is depressing

Gonna crack the top on a MEXICAN COKE boys, crack open a cold one!

lol @ random country music scrub starting things off... "georgia native" lol

won't be doing my taxes tonight bc due to too much HW and stuff... sh!t... hopefully i bear down and get it done by tomorrow

This is awful
