"the younger, comparatively personality-free Paige"

There were twelve matches in the whole of Mania last year. Right now there's nine titles to defend plus, even if Goldberg beats Owens at Fastlane, Taker-Reigns, Trips-Seth (or whatever), Cena/Nikki-Miz/Maryse, AJ-Shane and, although apparently this might not happen now but it still leaves one more than WM32, Show-Shaq.

I just wonder if they really would have both women's divisions reach a babyface triumphant crescendo at the same Mania.

He's been part of a major angle in Evolve for most of the last year and is a godhead in Scotland's ICW. Before he went to TNA he seemed to be in a different country every day so it's likely he can take some time before deciding whether to take the WWE route again.

And now Jade's walked.

Harper isn't the story. Wyatt and Orton are the story, as far as a world title match at Wrestlemania goes. Harper can easily come back later - and AJ only got a second chance because Orton looked like he'd moved aside, so next week when Shane says Randy wanting the title match takes precedence the fireworks are there.

There's some interesting theories around today about what happens next doing the rounds involving Erick Rowan, who is apparently ready to go again. But I was kind of awkward with the idea that Harper would go from hanger-on to Mania main eventer with 5-6 weeks' career build anyway, and Styles should by rights be…

On the continuing TNA evacuation, reportedly Mike Bennett and Maria are joining the Hardys and Drew Galloway out the door. My main takeaway from that is how many other people are affected by suddenly removing Maria, especially after Allie pretty much became Impact's most over face due to her.

What about the many more people who don't regularly watch wrestling these days but need tempting into buying the PPV or a one month Network subscription?

Nobody who has their own character should have been Sister Abigail because it defeats their purpose. A sarcastic bundle of fury getting over under her own steam and agency suddenly turns out to have been a thought-dead spiritual guide to a supernatural cult leader all along?

I don't see how now they've spent weeks setting it up as a personal enmity, and you can't go "I'm not fighting you… but Shinsuke Nakamura will!" to the millions of people who have no idea who he is or why they should care the popular daredevil from wrestling's most mainstream period wouldn't want to shut Styles up…

Apart from the obvious Emma/Jack Swagger types, is there anyone as adrift right now as Rusev? Since he lost the US title in a feud where most weeks he came across as a gallant underpowered face against Reigns he's been in a tag team with a jobber which started with sexual harrassment being presented as a face move,…

With any Hardys plans you've got to allow for how Matt is basically broken down and Jeff keeps getting injured, so the TNA taping schedule and the odd indie weekend seems about right for them as opposed to TV and three house shows a week.

Slightly harsh to blame Charlotte herself for crowds going quiet when the heel wins, but the Sasha-Charlotte Falls Count Anywhere match got the kind of ratings bump only Goldberg was otherwise achieving while against MNF, but then Charlotte won the feud to maintain a PPV streak nobody really cares about given how…

The problem is more that (leaving Paige and Summer aside) the division is made up of two faces and five heels, so Alicia has been farmed off to 205 Live valeting work, Dana is botching run-ins and Emma is on a constant holiday.

She's filling in for Naomi, they've likely not decided which show she'd be going on yet.

Not much of a surprise in that case, but (like Joe and Braun) I don't see what he does at Mania.

The Batista backlash was more because of the build to the event being around Daniel Bryan and that Batista was awkwardly put in as the conquering face. Reigns' Rumble wasn't helped by being set up by Kane and Big Show of all people eliminating practically everyone the crowd were cheering for, but before then there'd…

Although that's not really the same, though, miming for TV and PA isn't really the same as hoaxing and doesn't really expose fakers as much as it exposes bad production. Here's Julianne Regan's band All About Eve live on the BBC contending with malfunctioning monitor playback as illustration: http://www.youtube.com/wat…

He was, and was also the uncredited voice of Bobby Farrell, the difference audible on the (obviously quite rare) times they were required to do a live vocal for TV at their height.
