2017 Pro Wrestling Thread

1. Who's winning the Royal Rumble?

2. Who will be taker's opponent at Wrestlemania?

3. Who takes the strap off Kevin Owens?

4. When does Nakumara get called up?

5. Do we see Kurt Angle in a WWE ring in 2017?

6. Does John Cena surpass Flair's World Championships record in 2017?

 

1. I hope it's Finn Balor, who then jumps to Smackdown and faces A.J. at Wrestlemania.

2. John Cena.

3. Jericho.

4. I think Joe will get called up first.

5. No.

6. I hope not.

 

1.Cena
2. Cena
3. Reigns
4. Before Summerslam
5. Yes, as a Rumble surprise
6. Ties it by winning at WM.

 

They need pure heels so badly, Joe should've been called up a month ago. Although the main roster also lacks the kind of pure babyface that will stop him from getting the smark cheers AJ gets, whereas in NXT Balor and Nakamura were so pure good it let people boo Joe out of respect.

1. No idea, which is actually very refreshing for once. I'm saying the hell with it: BRAUN STROWMAN!
2. Another hell with it pick, SAMOA JOE. (Cena should face AJ and that should go on last. There's nothing else in the company that can compare).
3. Roman Reigns, sadly.
4. Night after Mania probably.
5. I hope so
6. Does not surpass, only ties.

So this makes my Mania card:
World title: Styles vs John Cena
Universal title: Roman vs Strowman
Taker vs Joe
Brock vs Goldberg
Jericho vs Owens
HHH vs Rollins
Women's title: Bayley vs Charlotte/Sasha Banks (Depends on if Charlotte's in the Rousey program or not).

I'd take that.

 

My question is, how do you debut Nakamura? He's not exactly what Vince looks for in a megastar.

 

I think everyone will expect him to come out at the Rumble. I say have him debut the night after Wrestlemania.

You have to debut him as a face, right?

 

I'd definitely debut him as a face. I'm just wondering where he fits.

If he keeps the King of Strong Style shtick, I'd put him right in against Lesnar.

 

Only if we can get Lanny Poffo and his poetry as the guest referee.

 

1. Honestly no clue, but why not Finn Balor?

2. John Cena.

3. Seth Rollins.

4. Hopefully in time for Wrestlemania.

5. Yes. If nothing else, let him manage American Alpha.

6. Surpass? No. Tie? Yes.

 

1. Who's winning the Royal Rumble? -- I could honestly see them giving the win to Jericho. Dark horse pick: Baron Corbin.

2. Who will be taker's opponent at Wrestlemania? -- Cena.

3. Who takes the strap off Kevin Owens? -- Jericho, who then loses it to Reigns.

4. When does Nakumara get called up? -- Mania for the Andre battle royal.

5. Do we see Kurt Angle in a WWE ring in 2017? -- Yes, at the Rumble.

6. Does John Cena surpass Flair's World Championships record in 2017? -- No.

 

What's one personal thing you want to see happen in 2017?

Can be anything, certain wrestler winning the World Title, you want a certain wrestler to retire, you want to see a certain wrestler signed by the WWE, etc.

 

I'd like to see Jericho get a title run. They've given the belt to so many part-timers from the Attitude Era the past couple of years, it'd be nice to see a guy who deserves it get one more run with it.
Another world title reign for Miz would be great, too. He's a guy who was virtually destroyed after his first reign and has done a tremendous job building himself back up. Hearing him talk about headlining Wrestlemania five years after the fact was getting plain sad. Let's give him another title run already so he can brag about being a two-time champion instead of winning at one of the crappiest Wrestlemanias ever.
