8 Big Reasons WWE Fans Should Be Excited For WrestleMania 32
6. Roman Reigns And Triple H Will Get Personal
So, is Triple H trying to take a babyface turn, or is he really that oblivious to how wrestling fans will react after all these years? Beating someone the crowd dislikes to a bloody pulp and then crotch-chopping at him, tuning into the hearts of all the twenty- and thirtysomethings in the crowd who are wistfully pining for the Attitude Eras better days gone by? Did he really, honestly suspect hed get booed for that? I like to think that Triple H, with all of his years of experience, would know better than that. Could this be a hint of some kind of turn at WrestleMania? But enough questions. Heres the real reason to get excited: physicality. We dig it as wrestling fans. We can harp on the five-star matches with technical chain wrestling all we want, but when someone gets tossed around with German suplexes by Brock Lesnar, we all sit slack-jawed in awe, frothing at the bit. Triple H is going to pull out all the stops to get Roman over with that crowd. Expect carnage, mayhem, and a bit of blood to wash it all down. It may not be the match we wanted at first, but it will bring the pain and drama, even if the crowd will be 80% behind Triple H to retain his championship. Id argue that Shane and Vince should have taken their bet and placed it on this match instead, with Shane getting to run the WWE if Roman wins. Who would want to boo Shane by proxy of booing Roman? Nobody. It would have made Roman bulletproof, if only for one night. How they manage to pull off this crowning of Roman Reigns without putting a hamper on the evening as a whole will dictate the course of the future for the WWE. Lets hope they can figure it out to make the story match the quality of the main event title bout.
