I think Edge/Jericho will be a better match than Taker/HBK this year. As will MITB. I'm interested in seeing who the other participants will be, since Punk is probably gonna be going against Mysterio-so.

That f'in "What" chant needs to die, and the people that do it need to burn in a fire. Its fine if its during a boring segment, but they do it during perfectly good promos more often than not. I swear, between that and cheering for stuff like Hornswaggle, WWE live crowds are retards.

Edit: That video package with Taker/HBK was top tier.


are u kidding me, so people say "what" they need to burn in a fire, maybe you should burn in a fire..And WWE live crowds are retards because they scream and get pumped, give me a break kid...So it should be like a golf tournament and everyone be shh quiet while they entertain...come on if u ever been to a live WWE event you would probably have the worst time of your life...get outta here
 
I didn't say that. Don't put words in my mouth.

No, its not Japan pro wrestling and I don't want applause after the match is over. Quite the opposite. I'm saying that maybe instead of cheering for stupid stuff like Hornswaggle or during the latest DX skit, maybe they should be cheering when people are busting their tails and actually putting on a good match? See that's part of my problem. There's been too many times when I've seen a good match going on, and the crowd is sitting on their hands. Its like Neyland. But then Hornswaggle's music hits, and - bam - its like an eruption.

And, like I said, the "What" thing is fine to an extent...if they do it during a segment that deserves it. But nearly everytime I hear them do it, its during a good segment. Like during that HBK/Taker segment the other night. Idiots.

Or do you think its cool that our fans do the wave when we have the ball on offense, yet sit on their hands when we're on defense? That's what I liken it to.

FYI, I have been to plenty of live WWE events. Not recently, but in the last 10 years. And I had a good time at all of them. But it wasn't because I was chanting "What". It was because I was cheering (or booing) people that deserved it.

">The crowds are meek and mild compared to crowds 10 years ago, Punk would be having the time of his life with some of those crowds. Also the signs in the crowd suck, I guess Vince has put a ban on originality.

here is how I see WM playing out.

HBK/Taker: It will be good as advertised. I 'd say they put on another great match and we don't see either one for a few months after the match. HBK is gonna end the streak, and that is cool with me I don't care either way, but I think a up and comer could use it more on their resume than Michaels.

EDGE/JERICHO: I don't know. I think they might have rushed Edge back from injury and if they did it will take away from the quality of the match if Edge can't go all out.

Batista/Cena: After a spotfest, McMahon will try and screw Cena out of the title, but alas Hart will save the day and the last image of the night will be Cena and Hart celebrating in the ring as they fade to black.


Throw in some sorry (but fine) ass Diva match and a putrid tag team match, to go along with Punk getting beat by Mysterio again and this is definitely looking like the first WM that I won't be watching live since Wrestlemania 15. Ah, yes good ol WM 15 the night Butterbean knocked Bart Gunn to another dimension.

Thats true. I don't expect the Attitude era again, or Attitude crowds. I just wish they'd have a little more sense about it. I don't even mind when they cheer for heels like Miz or Orton (truth be told I'd cheer for Orton myself) or boo faces (like Cena). I guess my main beef is with that "What" chant. Its pointless for the way its being used.

I think Taker will beat Michaels at WM, and his "retirement" will be the excuse for HBK taking some serious time off. Maybe Taker will get beat within an inch of his life, and that will become his excuse for taking time off.

Personally I'd like to see a younger star end the streak too. Not really somebody really fresh and undeserving, but somebody that has done enough to establish themselves but also has a long, bright future ahead of them.

Nobody fits that bill right now though, maybe Morrison ??
 
I do think Morrison may, yeah. He's got the look and he's got the skills. The guy is good in the ring. He's even got the charisma, but I think he needs some better mic work.

Or maybe somebody like Miz, but I don't think Miz would need it. He's carrying 3 belts around right now, so I think he's gonna be fine on his own.
 
Yea, your right about Morrison and the mic skills.

As far as the Miz goes, i've always been a fan of arrogant heels in wrestling, but this guy doesn't have it in the ring. That match vs MVP last week was brutally boring.

dibiase or Kofi??
 
The Nasty Boys make their 8th consecutive Impact appearance this week. And Jimmy Hart's tagging along now.

Can't be much longer before Beefcake makes his TNA debut.

I flipped by when they were coming out and immediately laughed until I cried and kept on moving :mf_surrender:
 
Having Beer Money grab those straps from Morgan and Hernandez will be a step in the right direction for the tag division.
 
dibiase or Kofi??

I forgot about Kofi. He's a good possibility too. He's in a similar boat as Morrison. People like him, he's good in the ring, but he also needs promo work.

I'm not really sold on DiBiase yet. Maybe I should stop comparing him to his dad. But of the three, he could use the win the most. The real question to me is what would he do with it after that.
 
I just tuned into Smakdown! for the first time in months...

Why is Kane still around? Have they turned him into a Jobber, the beatable big guy? I know he just beat McIntyer to go to Mania but you know it's just so he can be in a spot fest for the MitB. They are never going to put either one of the titles on him & he must know that. Why does he stick around?

...& has he shrunk a bit or is McIntyer just really tall? I thought Kane was about 6'10 & Drew was at eye ball level with him.
 
Drew is pretty tall. He's 6'5. I'm really not a fan of his push. Especially him going to MITB. He doesn't need it. He's been IC champ for a while. Even if he doesn't win (which he shouldn't) somebody else deserves the chance to shine.

I enjoyed the triple threat match between Truth, Morrison, and Ziggler. On the flipside, I'm glad Ziggler is getting the chance to do MITB. I think he's gonna be really good in the future. He's obviously some kind of takeoff of Mr. Perfect, but he reminds me of him in the ring too. Skilled guy.

I posted this elsewhere about the whole Taker/Michaels Mania match but want to post it here just in case I call it right.

I think Taker's going to lose to Michaels. Here's just how I see it going down.....

They have the same type of back and forth match that they had last year. The end of the match will somehow see HHH come down and take Taker out with the sledgehammer. Michaels will not know that HHH helped him win at the time. The next night on Raw Michaels will by then know what happened and confront Trips.

HHH will say that Shawn is his best friend in the business and he couldn't see him having to retire. Shawn will argue that he didn't need HHH to beat the Undertaker. HHH will disagree and say something to the effect that "You CAN'T beat him Shawn. You gave it your all last year at Mania and it still wasn't good enough. I couldn't let him beat you again this year and send you into retirement." Shawn will be irate claiming that HHH "tainted" his win over the Undertaker at WM and that, again, he didn't need his help. HHH will try to reason with him but Shawn will not listen. HHH will try to leave the ring and then Shawn will Superkick him and lay him out. Then he will brutalize and bloody HHH for interfering with his life.

This will all set up a HHH/Michaels/Taker 3 way at the next PPV. Or, a Michaels/HHH match and then a Taker that hadn't been seen since Mania will come out and destroy both of them setting up a 3 way at the following PPV.

It may not go down exactly like that but its the gist of how I see things happening. With them adding the layers to the Shawn/HHH storyline lately I can't see them not doing something with this at Mania since HHH is not in the spotlight. I would prefer my scenario above to happen but I could also see HHH causing Shawn to lose at Mania and saying that was for screwing him over for the past few months when HHH was trying to help him out. This could lead to the reinstatement of Shawn by Summerslam for a big feud witha heel HHH.

I honestly think it will come across much better if Shawn portrays the heel role in this whole deal though.
