Countdown to Wrestlemania XXV

Randy “The Ram” Robinson vs Chris Jericho :smiley:

My apologies

[spoiler]Raw was brutal. Didn’t we have the exact same story line in the past but it was Kane who attacked Linda.

Shane looked so out of shape. The wrestlers coming out on stage made no sense. They let Shane be attacked 3 on 1.

The JBL/HBK storyline makes no sense either.

Lame lame lame.
[/spoiler]

Spoiler tags man. Christ. I’ll be downloading this for later.

Not really a spoiler but the elimnation chamber will be for both titles this year rather than number 1 contendership. Sure Edge will lose and regain the title at Mania.

Ah no problem there cluaindiuic its just watching WWE programming is a stuggle at the moment with it being so shite. I’ve only started watching it again in the past week and the only thing that gets me through watching it is the hope something unpredictable will happen.

First time I got the buzz now for Mania. The road always starts at the rumble. Its falling together nicely.

Shall we make predictions for what we think the match-ups for wrestlemania will be? Here are mine having watched the rumble, though i didn’t see last nights raw yet so things could have happened there.

Definites:
Jeff Hardy v Matt Hardy
HBK v JBL

Possibilites:
Jack Swagger v Tommy Dreamer
Randy Orton v John Cena v Chris Jericho
HHH v Edge v Undertaker
Stone Cold v Mr. McMahon?

Are people expecting stone cold to wrestle in a once-off seen as hes getting inducted into the hall of fame and mania is on in his home state and all?

I think Stone Cold will be involved in some sort of match. I cant see him wrestling but more of an enforcer role. If Mickey Rourke and Chris Jericho is going to be at Mania I can see him being part of that.

Card I think

Wwe Title Match
Edge© vs Hunter

World Heavyweight Title Match
John Cena© vs Randy Orton

ECW Title Match
Jack Swagger © v Tommy Dreamer

Jbl vs Hbk in which Jbl puts his wealth on the line against Shawns career

Jeff Hardy vs Matt Hardy

Money in the bank

Cm Punk vs Kofi Kingston vs Rey Mysterio vs Mr Kennedy vs MVP vs Shelton Benjamin vs John Morrison vs Christian vs The Miz

Mickey Rourke vs Chris Jericho with Stone Cold as enforcer/ref

Undertaker vs Kozlov

A Divas match of some sort.

I’m still holding out for HBK v Undertaker. Why did Taker show up in the locker room for a chat with Michaels at the Rumble?

Didnt Cena and Hunter try and talk Hbk out of being Jbls puppet. It was just that. You reading too much into it.

is christian not with tna now shan?

Hes left them and is going to be back with the Wwe soon enough. Myself included thought he was going to be back at the Rumble either as a suprise entrant or would interfere in the Edge-Jeff Hardy match and be revealed as the mystery man behind Jeffs downfall in the last few months.

Cena is a mong rat. HHH is a boring fook of the highest order.

Im afraid Cena is going to retain against Orton. Orton is wrestling at the moment.
Hunter is alright but being honest Id rather he wasnt in a championship match but that aint going to happen although he hasnt won at mania since Wm 19.

What day are you heading over to NYC Bandage?

We need to be ready for a Dublin airport beating if you are going the same date.

Flano, Shan, brace yourselves for a beating in Houston. We may get an opportunity to beat you elsewhere too if our itinerary clashes. We ruled Boston out as the baseball schedule doesn’t suit us so we’re flying into Chicago, heading from there to Houston for the Big Dance, heading across for a bit of Spring Break in Miami after that before rounding it off with a weekend in New York. It’s all booked now and it’ll be off the hook, off the chain.

The nature boy returns to RAW tonight in what promises to be a cracking show. Also Orton fights the phenom in the main event.

The road to wrestlemania is gathering steam, i wonder if we’ll see christian cage before then?

Also heard rumours lately that psycho sid and kevin nash are contemplating returning to wwe. I still hold out hope that Angle will return. He has not totally closed the door on the prospect and his tna contract expires later this year.

Kurt Angle- I can see a return later in the year. If the past is anything to go by then Vince will bring back anyone that left the company on bad terms if he can make money off him.

Sid- Please god no. Was bad 10 years ago. Be even worse now.

Nash- Only as a manager/non wrestler.

Angle has compared his relationship with vince as a father/son like relationship. The only thing that would stop him returning is the schedule. He has had so many injuries that he just can’t wrestle as much as he could before or as much as wwe would like. Thats why tna suits him, the schedule isn’t as punishing. If they could work out a system similar to that of HBK i don’t see any problems. I know HBK has wrestled a bit more frequently lately, but for a while there he was only doing ppv’s and the odd match here and there on RAW. That could work with Angle. I’d love to see him back, he’s one of my all time favourites. Excellent technically, explosive and adept on the mic.

WWE really need to do something mad, it’s not like it was, where you could be shocked every week at what happened. It’s become almost mundane at times and some-one has to do something with Cena. He’s appalling. He can’t wrestle and has absolute no charisma or mic skills. How they rate him so highly i don’t know.
