25 Most Revealing WWE Instagram Posts Of The Week (April 8th)

One thing and one thing only is on the agenda for most WWE fans right now: the small matter of a little event happening in New Orleans this weekend. Sure, there's interest in the indy shows happening around it and there's some news out there that isn't entirely Mania-focused, but nobody is silly enough to actually try and COMPETE with the showcase.

Inevitably, most of this week has looked ahead to the big show, with continued debate over John Cena facing the Undertaker (or at least setting something up for elsewhere), a rumour killer for The Rock's alleged appearance at 'Mania and a whisper that Braun Strowman will team up with Bray Wyatt there.

There's talk also of what comes next, with a feud for Samoa Joe and Roman Reigns in focus, more talk of the Greatest Royal Rumble and the expected return of Jeff Hardy any day now.

The one really big non-Mania issues, of course, are Brock Lesnar's UFC return, which the company might need now that Conor McGregor's doing his best to sour things, and Rusev apparently asking to be released. Let's hope they look after his needs a little better now.

And through it all, the superstars past and present took to social media to share their 'Mania excitement, their Hall of Fame experiences and their reactions to NXT TakeOver. This was the week in WWE Instagram...

They don't get enough credit at these times, so it's good to see Triple H sharing some of the Mania weekend love with the teams behind the scenes. Clearly he takes a very active role in planning.
