I can't believe I'm about to post a video from dancing with the ****ing stars, but this Jericho guy is pretty entertaining...

If this were 2003 and the streak had the same credence that is does now, I'd be inclined to believe that Haych would win. However, HHH said himself on the History of Wrestlemania DVD that he didn't think anyone should break the streak. If he does, at the very least it would be an awesome way to point out his hypocrisy.
That stuff aside, he had a clean win over Taker in the Chamber two years ago, and ending the streak will only hurt his rep. I think what is most interesting will be the placement on the show. If that match goes last, then The Miz may well retain. If not, then it's Super Cena. As far as the WHC goes, I could see either person winning. Edge may get his day in the sun, since he's never won or retained a world title at WM, but he's had a lot of success lately against ADR, so you'd think that Del Rio would get his comeuppance at 'Mania. However, maybe Edge gets destroyed on SD!.

I believe Meltzer's been told that Undertaker/HHH is going on last, but Vince could change his mind 27 times between now and Sunday.
I actually think last night set up Miz to retain, with Rock screwing Cena, but it could just as well be set up to begin a Rock/Cena title program if Rock really is willing to wrestle, as it appears that he is (never thought I'd see the day....). In which case Rock would Rock Bottom Cena after the match rather than during it. My gut says they're taking the title off Miz to put it on somebody who seems more 'legit' now that the talk show circuit is done. And there's also the problem of what they do with Miz at this point, with the title or without. I hope del Rio goes over, it would seem to make the most sense, but I don't like the way they're polluting the match with Christian (well, he's okay) and Brodus (ugh). My guess is that it will have some Christian shenanigans costing Edge the title. |

“Y’know, Undertaker, nobody has ever beaten you at Wrestlemania. But in two weeks, at Wrestlemania, I will beat you, Undertaker. Undertaker, let’s get one thing straight… you are going to lose. I am going to beat you, Undertaker, at the Wrestlemania event in two weeks. So next week, Undertaker, I want to bring you out here and explain that in two weeks, Undertaker, I will beat you at Wresltemania.”

Why do they call that dumb sonofabitch "the last outlaw"? Is he going back to his American Badass persona or something?

At this point isn't it safe to say the streak will never end. It's like a gift to Taker for his 2 decades of service to the company. It just doesn't really make any sense for it to ever be snapped. You could even bring him out of retirement for a one time match at WM 5 years from now against some badass heel (like the WCW Giant version) and have him go over once again. The buys on that would probably still be huge.

Listening to melzer's latest show and he says the latest word is Cena/Miz going on last.
Which would I assume means Cena's going over. Which is absolutely the last thing they should do, unless Rock is leaving post-mania. |

Why do you think that? What better way to get the audience to come back Monday night then have the Rock walking out at the end Wrestlemania after giving the new Champ John Cena the Rock Bottom.

It kind of sullies the point of the main event. That's supposed to be the climax of the show, not what happens afterward.

1. Rock/Cena, if they're really going on to a summerslam match, don't need a title to sell their program. 2. The miz needs a win much, much more than Cena does. He needs a clean win, in fact, one that makes him look like a legit star going forward, and not a geek being sent back down to the midcard so the real stars can take the stage. That isn't going to happen, of course, he's not going to win, much less win clean, if they go on last, but that's what should happen. People are probably going to get what they want, which is Rock rock bottoming Cena, but if it comes at the expense of the Miz, I think it's a bad move going forward. The Rock is not back permanently, this is a program that ends in a few months (if it doesn't end Monday), and if all that comes out of it in the end is pushing Cena (their only real star right now...), and nobody else, than it's not the right thing. There's always the possibility of Rock screwing Cena over to keep the title on Miz, but that doesn't seem likely if the match really is going on last. |
