He points out that the Elimination Chamber match would have been much more enjoyable if we all didn’t already know that Roman Reigns was going to win in the end. The Angle/Rousey versus Stephanie/Triple H storyline would also be much more enjoyable if we didn’t know that this angle was coming months in advance. He wishes WWE could swerve us more often because it’s becoming harder and harder to watch wrestling when we already know WWE’s plans for big matches well in advance.
Russo points out that Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer called both him and Eric Bischoff failures recently. He doesn’t understand how someone could seriously call him and Bischoff failures in the wrestling business. Russo mightn’t be a big fan of Bischoff, but he’d never call Bischoff a failure. Gilbertti agrees, wondering what measuring stick Meltzer is using in order to call those two men failures.
Gilbertti adds that no matter what you say about Meltzer, he works very hard and that’s what made him a success in his industry. Gilbertti also points out that Meltzer’s passion is writing, and for that reason he doesn’t think Meltzer will ever step away from writing for Wrestling Observer.
Lane mentions that Braun Strowman was rumoured to be working The Miz at WrestleMania this year, but now there are some people speculating that WWE is keeping their options open so that they can slot in Strowman to replace Reigns in the main event if Reigns gets into any trouble with the recent steroids allegations he’s facing.
