So now Wyatt is Champ.

Last 3 matches were fine, first half of the show was a bit of a snoozefest.

I was hoping the tag wold be good but didn't really find myself enjoying it.

On wyatt, is it just me or does WWE have a knack of suddenly pushing people or putting titles on people who have already lost their momentum or credibility?

I like Wyatt but if you look back, he's a perennial loser and all of a sudden, he's champ! Even with this most recent story line with orton, I would say he's been looking like championship material.

Although it was obvious from the get go, I am really happy Bray got the W, it gets tossed around way to much these days, but he does deserve it. The Orton in the Wyatt family storyline has been more interesting than it had any right to be, and a successful defence over Orton at Mania is what Bray needs to elevate himself to the next level. Bray wins the feud and moves on to someone like Ambrose, Orton works with someone like Corbin or Miz to get some cred back for a big match at Summerslam with Styles.

Overall I think this show is why I like Smackdown so much better, they have a skinny roster but they are willing to trust EVERYONE on there. How many active in ring roster members were not used tonight? Elsworth and Carmella are the only two I can think of.

Surely the Wyatt/Orton feud would have benefited from Bray winning the belt at least 3-4 months ago so that tension could have organically built leading up to the rumble and after Orton's subsequent rumble win ala HHH/Batista in 2005.

After Randy & Bray won at Survivor Series, they should have been inserted into the WWE title match at TLC, Bray should have won the title there, had his rematch with AJ at the Rumble (Randy still wins) then defends the title in the Chamber. They've made him look credible as champion (pinning Cena & Styles as well as beating both in a triple threat), but I just get the feeling this will be a transitional reign for Bray.

That said it looks like it will be a triple threat with Harper added to the fray.

Based on Raw/Smackdown & Talking Smack this week, I think you can confirm

Goldberg vs Lesnar (not a fan of 2 part timers main eventing, especially considering their last Mania match as probably the worst Mania match ever)
Bray vs Orton vs ???? (probably Harper) (I would prefer 1 on 1, it could still go this way, but I can still go with this)
Shane vs AJ (AJ deserves a better match than this, but it will still be a fun match)
Ambrose vs Corbin (looking forward to this one, maybe give it a stipulation)
Big Show vs Shaq (don't need to see this)
Jericho vs Owens (should be for the Universal title, still looking forward to this)
Reigns vs Taker (use this to turn Roman heel)

Very hit and miss so far for me

what will they do with Joe?

Probably get involved in the Rollins/HHH match or just continue his fued with Zayn to Mania.

I am really enjoying what they are doing with the Wyatt family stuff on Smackdown and would love a Wyatt family triple threat at Mania but hopefully Bray retains at Mania. Smackdown creative has done a great job with taking the Wyatt family who had been booked into irrelevance and making them into the most important and interesting faction in the company and personally their story is the most interesting one going into Mania for me.

I'm not so sold on it (I would rather see Zayn compete for the US Title, as he is someone who could actually benefit from it). Personally, I would love to see Kurt Angle return and kick start their rivalry from TNA.

RIP to two WWWF legends - Ivan Koloff who beat Bruno for the WWWF HC, and George the Animal Steel who had a long storied career including being a part of my favourite all time match - Savage v Steamboat at WM 3.
