Pre-thoughts on WM30

Again, I ask, give me a reason to care about the big ppv this weekend.  I am sure it's not just me, but since there is a ppv every month pretty much, Wrestlemaina just doesn't have that glowing warmth it used to.  And given I'm in Canada, and we still don't have the WWE Network available to us (as of this posting) we -fans outside of the United States- still have to pay close to $75 (Canadian) for this ppv.

This year's card has so far at the time of this posting ... The 30 man Andre the Giant battle royal, a women's battle royal, Triple H vs Daniel Bryan, Batista vs Orton vs the winner of the Bryan vs Triple H, Cena vs Bray Wyatt, Undertaker vs Brock,  a tag team titles 4 way, and Shield vs Kane/Outlaws.

Normally, anything with the Shield has me ordering the show, but right now, that match up is leaving a dirty taste in my mouth.

Half this line up of matches just feels like re-used scripts. Do we really need to see someone trying to break the Undertaker's streak yet again? Not really.  Do we really need to have Brock show up for a few weeks and take off till next year? No not at all.  And what on earth were they thinking even bringing Batista back for? I guess someone had to fill the empty spot CM Punk left.

Even the Andre the Giant battle royal is looking lack luster. Just seems like a really poor reason to A) add his name to something and B) give everyone screen time who we might have forgotten even works for the company.

How would this be better for me personally?   If the Shield run in and disrupt everything, and if NXT stars like Corey Graves, Tyler Breeze and Sami Zayn were to have a three way match. Now, there's someone you could have had against the Shield...that would be interesting.  

While I'm at the NXT part of things...would someone please give Mason Ryan a shave and haircut, he looks filthy.

Till Later
