Posted March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733028 Live from Toronto for a special event for the first time since 2006. I'll be there live with Musgrave! The card looks pretty fun: HHH vs. Dean Ambrose for the WWE titleBrock Lesnar vs. Bray WyattNew Day vs Sheamus & King Barrett for the tag team titleDash Wilder & Scott Dawson vs. Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady for the NXT tag titles Charlotte vs. Natayla for the divas title Also scheduled for the show are Sheamus, Chris Jericho and Sami Zayn.
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733051 Congrats on attending the real Wrestlemania, Grimmas. If Lesnar-Wyatt isn't really good, I'll eat Sorrow's hat. New Day-League has high potential. Barrett will continue his tour of as many jobs as possible in the next 2-3 months, but I've liked him as a team with Sheamus. HHH-Ambrose is one of the weirdest main events they've done in years, but I'm intrigued to see what happens. My biggest question for the night is how they shoot it. I assume Kevin Dunn is making the trip across the border (the recent MSG house show shot for the Network looked like any episode of RAW), but I've been fantasizing that this'll be filmed a la the old Maple Leaf Gardens shows, with Ambrose throwing Hunter down the giant ramp and Brock murdering dudes in a smoke-filled hall.
March 12, 20169 yr Author comment_5733058 It's in Ricoh, not gardens. Gardens has been changed and is too small now.
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733063 I'm most excited for the crowd getting to go nuts after 10 years of not having a PPV. Glad you guys will be there.
March 12, 20169 yr Author comment_5733067 My prediction is that Bray Wyatt gets the babyface reaction against Brock. No basis for this, just a wild prediction.
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733074 I'm most excited for the crowd getting to go nuts after 10 years of not having a PPV. Glad you guys will be there. Toronto crowds are usually pretty fun. Remember how bananas they went for Rock/Hogan at Wrestlemania? They put that show on another level!
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733076 My prediction is that Bray Wyatt gets the babyface reaction against Brock. No basis for this, just a wild prediction. They introduced Brock from Saskatoon, so probably not.
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733077 That is like trying to get someone over in New York by announcing them from Wyoming. I'm going to miss this show for a family commitment, too bad because it looks pretty good.
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733085 It's really nice having a big show on a Saturday so that those of us in Blighty can stay up to watch it without having to book the next day off work (or show up ludicrously tired)
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733094 My predictions for Roadblock: HHH vs Dean Ambrose (WWE Title) - Got to think Trips retains here. My guess is some interference from Brock costing Ambrose the title. Brock Lesnar vs Bray Wyatt - Competitive squash. This will go 8 or 9 minutes. Brock will toss around Wyatts. Braun is advertised for Atlantic City card so we might just get Harper & Rowan taking wild bumps off suplexes. New Day vs Sheamus & King Barrett (WWE Tag Title) - This won't last too long & will basically be a set-up for the Mania match. New Day retain on a DQ. Revival vs Enzo & Cass (NXT Tag Title) - I'm going Revival here. I think they'll get a lot of time to showcase an NXT match. Charlotte vs Natalya (Diva's Title) - This could be good. They have good chemistry. Charlotte retains. Jericho & Zayn are both scheduled. A Highlight Reel has been advertised but I don't know how that will work out. I'm predicting Sami Zayn works Miz based off Miz TV on Smackdown. Zayn will go over. It's possible they squeeze in one more match. It's a 3 hour show. I think the main event, NXT match, Diva's match, & Zayn match will all get a lot of time though.
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733099 You have to think this is the return of Roman Reigns tonight after Triple H beats down Ambrose. I mean I know they are protecting him but he has to come out eventually
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733101 My predictions for Roadblock: HHH vs Dean Ambrose (WWE Title) - Got to think Trips retains here. My guess is some interference from Brock costing Ambrose the title. My problem with this is that Lesnar should interfere and attack Trips and get Ambrose the title so that their match is the one for the belt (and it would be an outstanding jobnotjob by HHH). Except that that ruins a perfectly awesome-sounding Ambrose-Lesnar Mania match by involving fucking Triple H.
March 12, 20169 yr comment_5733102 Meanwhile in Atlantic City on the same night, AJ Styles vs Kevin Owens in a 30 minute ironman match. Someone needs to periscope that one
March 13, 20169 yr Author comment_5733106 New Day or Brock will be biggest babyfaces, based in pre show chants.
March 13, 20169 yr comment_5733108 Just saw on Twitter that last 3 matches announced are Jericho-Stardust (Jericho in a squash for me), R-Truth-Viktor (Truth will win from Goldust helping him), & Zayn-Swagger (I pick Zayn in a good match)
March 13, 20169 yr Author comment_5733112 Will you have a PWO-PTBN banner at the show? Behind hard cam. Damn sexual chocolate was over. Huge let's go chocolate chants. He even did a little dance.
March 13, 20169 yr Author comment_5733114 Viktor vs truth is starting now, so probably a dark match. Edit: it's goldust not truth
March 13, 20169 yr Author comment_5733115 Goldust wins, Ascension attacks and Truth makes the save. Goldust half heartily doing the what's up to Truths song is funny.
March 13, 20169 yr comment_5733120 http://segundacaida.blogspot.com/2016/03/wwe-roadblock-live-blog.html Doing a live blog over at Segunda Caida. On paper the card looks better than several PPVs they've run lately. We'll see.
