WWE hasn't given any details, but a radio station contest for ringside seats is billing the main event as a six-man tag match. Reigns/Ambrose/Jericho vs. Wyatt/Sheamus/Owens. I'm already disappointed. I mean, I'm totally rooting for KO, but that has to rub off on Sheamus? Ugh. Don't he & Wyatt have their own posses for tag partners?
And yes to the boos for Roman, even though I'm fine with him. Ambrose-Lesnar should be fun, and that Hell In A Cell announcement last night was a head-scratcher for sure. Glad to see Shane back, but wtf.....
I'm enjoying the SummerSlam possibilities more than what they've got to work with for Mania. All that trolling of a 4th grader that my Rollins beat his Cena went to waste. And I'm pretty sure the kid hates Jon Stewart for life.
Edit: Especially since he did it to help "Charlotte's Dad."
I must really be out of touch with the general feelings of the IWC, because it seems most people have hated last night's main event as well as Fastlane's main event... personally, I freaking loved both matches. Ambrose is the best guy in the company along with Styles right now. Hope this and the match with Lesnar (which he'll surely lose) gives him a strong rub and we can finally get the guy into the title picture as champion down the line.

I can't speak for everyone, but I don't know if it's those matches themselves... or their consequences. I'm in that "sick of Roman Reigns being crammed down everyone's throat until we relent and accept it" camp. I know not everyone feels that way, but I know plenty do - and that's obviously going to factor into those complaints.
You're right that Ambrose might be the best they (currently?) have on the roster - perhaps another reason for the dissatisfaction with recent main events. Not just Fastlane and last night, but also being the last elimination at the Rumble. I think he's due to break that PPV losing streak at Mania, and it's probably going to be the best match on the card. After that... let him have his go at Reigns at Summerslam?
I Imagine it is the booking and the consequences, honestly, but I don't think people should let that stuff get in the way of what has been a great string of main event matches. I really don't see them putting Ambrose over Lesnar at mania, but it would make sense since he's been losing all these matches to finally get a big big win.
I think MITB is a bit far off. Roster's hurting for big names now, with the current injured reserve list.
I think the Ambrose-Lesnar street fight at Mania is tailor made for Ambrose to emerge victorious. Scrappy underdog with a never-say-die attitude, who can take a beating, given unconventional means to pull off an upset? I'm buying into that.
Plus, I think there's still juice in that "battling brothers" narrative. Lesnar seems to be in more of a position to come & go as he may, whereas Ambrose is more of a solid full-timer. I think that returning superstars give Lesnar some wiggle room to scale back, while Dean gets more traction from receiving that bump.
It just makes sense to me that Ambrose gets the win here.
Random: I'm still grumbling because KO could've picked a way easier trio of jobbers for that Triple Threat match on Raw than Stardust/Zack Ryder/Sin Cara. I know Sin Cara needs something to do at Mania, but how do you not put a Social Outcast in there?

Yeah, I agree. I thought the whole idea of the Andre battle Royale was to put the rest of the roster on the Mania card. They could have just put Owens-Zayn-Ziggler-Miz in the ladder match.
Now with the card filled out (after they make Jericho vs Styles official), the only real questions are:
What is the Rock doing?
Do we get appearances by Cena, Austin, and Michaels?
What are they going to do with Bray Wyatt?
The card isn't the best ever for a Mania, but I'm still excited to be in Jerry World with 90k plus fans to witness the grandest spectacle of them all!

The Rock is going to stand close to Roman Reigns to make it harder to boo him.
I thought Austin & Michaels, being Texans, were basically confirmed. Also saw Foley being teased, which makes sense if he's getting a show on the Network.
There's a rumor/theory out there that Cena has a shot of getting medical clearance to return from injury by Mania... and that if he does, they'll find an angle to let Shane pick a champion in his stead for the Hell In A Cell match. All the more plausible if it indeed turns out to be Taker's farewell match?
Also read that Bray Wyatt has a back injury, which explains that switcheroo at Roadblock.
What an odd show from a booking standpoint! The stage looked awesome and it was very nearly full. As far as the matches go......
SPOILERS AHEAD! SPOILERS AHEAD!
Pre-show:
Kalisto and Ryback was a good match, but the stadium was only 1/4 full.
The 10-diva tag match was a shit show, but that was to be expected. Brie gets the win and the send off, with Nikki coming down in a neck brace.
Dudleys vs Usos was a decent tag match, but no one in the crowd cared either way really.
What's your take on the hints & allegations I'm seeing that mics were tuned down/off for main event boo-birds while pro-Roman crowd noise was piped in?
They definitely turned it up to drown out the boos. We actually left midway through the main event because the other 5 people we were with wanted to beat traffic. All in all it was a fun show.
The Women's Title was definitely the show stealer.
