Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal

Postby HardcoreLegend » Feb 11, '15, 4:56 pm

So last years WM we saw this battle royal happen, not really sure why as I'm sure Cesaro's trophy was destroyed just a couple of weeks later and we heard no mention of it thereafter. But I quite liked the idea of it, it was some other form of accomplishment to achieve other than what's around already. I think it would've been good if each year they changed who the battle royal was in memory of.

Would you like to see this kind of thing continue or are you not too bothered?

Absolutely not. Wrestlemania should be a showcase of the best wrestling the WWE can produce, we already get enough filler as it is. Also it hurts the Royal Rumble in my opinion, it being so close time wise to the event. The Royal Rumble needs all the cred it can get, it's hurting enough as it is. They should have a buffer period before and after the rumble when you can't do big battle royals.

Since they canceled the elimination chamber they should do that instead. Time and resources allowing.

EC is a huge time crunch and I don't really want to see one at Mania. However, I do think we'll see one at Extreme Rules based on how things are developing.

While it was a fun match last year, I worry that it would just be used as an excuse to not have to book guys in the midcard/lower card well heading into WrestleMania. I wouldn't mind seeing it again in some format, but I wouldn't make it an annual thing.
