WrestleMania 36 - Goldberg (c) vs Roman Reigns - Universal Championship

[BestSportsEntertainer]

This is a dream match. Two larger than life stars in a battle of generations. Sure it will be finisher and kickout heavy, but isn't every big match these days? Many will disagree, but Reigns deserves another WrestleMania moment. He's been out of the main event scene for a year. (Nope I'm not counting his feud with Corbin)

Now this really didn't need the championship, and there was literally no build. Saying catchphrases and pointing to a sign is a bad build for a B-PPV two weeks after a PPV in Saudi Arabia, much less a WrestleMania world championship match.

The current WrestleMania card is great, but Reigns vs Goldberg in a non-title match and Cena going for #17 against the evil murderous Fiend he helped create would've been even better. Oh well.

If it receives a favourable reaction, which I don't think it will, it could be a fun, explosive five minute match. It could also devolve into Lesnar vs. Goldberg from '04. Looking forward to it.

I'll laugh if Goldberg retains.

Yeah this should be about five minutes long but if it’s anywhere close to Brock vs Goldberg at 33 then I will be pleased. Reigns has been in some pretty dreadful matches at Mania since Triple H at 32 so hopefully this is the smashmouth we are hoping for. Would be a great way to start the show too while also getting the potentially negative reaction out of the way.

[Jack-Hammer]

This match is nothing more than another artificial, non-organic "moment" engineered for Roman Reigns. Roman has won the Royal Rumble, he's won multiple World Championships, he's beaten the Undertaker at WrestleMania but it all came across as just plain ol' meh.

The best thing about this match is that it'll be short, shouldn't be more than 3 minutes as we've seen what happens with Goldberg when they try to work him for longer than that.

So here's a bombshell. Satin is reporting that Roman Reigns will NOT be competing for the Universal Championship. As someone in remission from leukemia, Roman is immunocompromised and did not feel at ease working at the Performance Center. Props to Roman for making this tough call, nothing but respect for him, but wow is WrestleMania a shitshow!

[BestSportsEntertainer]

Major props to Reigns for making such a difficult decision.

I don’t know what happens to WrestleMania or the next few weeks of TV, but I’d cancel everything until things get back to normal. They could fill TV time by showing old PPVs, matches, documentaries, etc.

Props to the Big Dog.

I respect Reigns decision. This definitely makes WWE look even more foolish for taking the belt off of Fiend in such a laughable fashion. Goldberg is going to have the longest title of his career now.

It'll probably be Braun. But they should go for broke and pick somebody completely new. Killer Kross maybe, Keith Lee hopefully.
