Really? So, is the Undertaker, especially since losing the "streak," weasling his way into take that "spot" annually too?

I could see if Triple H couldn't still go in the ring, but overall he's done a good job of adapting to his body slowing down and still performing well. His match against Roman did stink last year, although that was more because poor building, people "hating" Roman and their styles being too similar IMO.

I'd give one of the best workers, most dedicated and loyal WWE guys another year or two before I'd totally write him off. Although, if you or anyone else is a (second name we can't say) fan then I understand the animosity, TBH.

No. Just, no. Not ANOTHER company/power/ownership match.

Man, there's no reason for HHH to have a Mania match at this point. At all. Same goes for:

Brock
Gokdberg
Rock
Taker
etc

Well, Taker should not wrestle another match, and he has definitely been pushing things in recent years, but he will always get more leeway from me because he's on a completely different level than Triple H, legacy wise. Especially at that event.

Another big difference: Taker used to drop in and have memorable matches, Triple H drops in and has competent but forgettable ones. And that's my main issue with Triple H. He gets way more credit as a "legend" than he deserves.

I strongly disagree. Some guy over at r/SC made a WM 33 card without part-timers (including Cena). It's extremely bleh and doesn't have a WM feel to it at all. Here it is:

Universal Championship: Kevin Owens (c) vs. Chris Jericho

WWE Championship: Bray Wyatt (c) vs. Randy Orton

Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman

No Disqualification Match: Samoa Joe vs Seth Rollins

United States Championship: Sami Zayn (c) vs. Rusev

RAW Tag Team Championship: Gauntlet Match The Club (c) vs. The New Day vs. Cesaro & Sheamus vs. Enzo & Cass

RAW Womens Championship: Fatal Fourway Charlotte (c) vs. Bayley vs. Sasha Banks vs. Nia Jax

Intercontinental Championship: Dean Ambrose (c) vs. Baron Corbin

Loser Leaves Smackdown Match: AJ Styles vs. The Miz w/ Maryse

Smackdown Tag Team Championship: American Alpha (c) vs. The Usos

Smackdown Womens Championship: Alexa Bliss (c) vs. Nikki Bella
Mickie James vs Becky Lynch

Cruiserweight Championship: 8 Man Ladder Match Neville (c) vs. Rich Swann vs. TJ Perkins vs THE Brian Kendrick vs. Mustafa Ali vs. Tony Nese vs. Drew Gulak vs. Cedric Alexander

Whether you guys like part-timers or not, they are still extremely vital to WrestleMania; this card is a prime example of that. There's barely a hint of star power on this card.

Re: WWE Off-Topic

With or without the part timers Wrestlemania 33's card is weak, probably the weakest in awhile IMO.

Did you already forget WM 32? Lol

Though I don't blame you at all, wish I could forget it happened as well.

My main takeaway from that card is that you have a bunch of guys who are somewhat over, but the 50/50 booking style makes them seem blah because we've seen them all lose big matches and small matches over and over. The part-timers aren't subjected to that. It's one of the reasons I loved Brock's part-time title run a few years back.
