Mike Awesome Passed Away

 

Another Sad Day in Pro Wrestling.

 

R.I.P

[MMFF]

Meh, I don't know who Trump will pick. If it is Lashley, then it will piss me off. Lashley should defend his title. It definitely wont be Hogan. It was originally going to be Hogan. Vince was gonna pick Khali and Trump would pick Hogan to relive Hogan vs Andre. But Hogan and Vince are on bad terms right now, so don't expect to see Hogan at Wrestlemania.

 

As far as Austin goes, I would love that. Chances are slim because I can't seem him really wrestling, but you never know. He will no doubt be playing a part in Wrestlemania though. His new movie comes out April 27th, so he will want to promote it. Not to mention he was backstage at No Way Out, so I am sure something is planned for him.

 

As much as I would like a Austin vs Hogan, I don't think it will ever happen. Neither man will take the fall, and I don't blame them. Neither man deserves to take the fall.

I heard from somewhere that Stone Cold will be Special Guest Ref at WM in The Vince-Trump match.

[TonyZimmzy]

Unfortunatly it's true that Trump will pick Lashley and Austin will be the ref

 

 

Why Lashley? WHY!

[Family_Guy]

Hopefully with Austin in there it will be good.

Lashley vs Umaga eh? I hope that doesn't be a flop. I mean I respect both competitors in ring skills, but are they really WM material yet? Thanks for finding this out TommyZimmy. It's great to see my boy Stone Cold back, even as a ref. It's just great seeing him in the ring again at least.

 

Hey, did anyone catch Hogan Knows best this past week? Vince offered Hogan a 20 year contract! That's unheard of, a contract for that much time.

 

Hey TommyZimmy, where did you get that pic from bro.? It's a nice find.

Where’s that picture taken from?

 

Steve as a ref certainly offers the match a better draw, but I cant see the match being of any value. No doubt Steve will “stun” both either during or after the match.

[TonyZimmzy]

It's taken from the E! channel I think.

 

20 year contract? You sure Hogan wasn't just talkin' outta his ass? Or did Vince actually say it, cos I never ever heard about it before

[B Rob]

Lashley Vs Umaga with Austin as the Ref? That don't sound like a bad match. I doubt that Trump will lose so we'll probably see Austin screw Vince one last time.

 

I think WM is shaping up to be a great event so far. I think they need one more gimmick match though because right now the MITB is the only gimmick match.

 

Matches so far?

 

HBK Vs Cena

Taker Vs Batista

Lashley/Trump Vs Umaga/Vince w/ Austin as Ref

MITB - Edge Vs CM Punk Vs King Booker Vs ??? Vs ??? Vs ???

 

I think that Flair and Carlito will have a match. It's also rumored that Melina Vs Ashley for the Women's Championship will happen. I really hope that Edge Vs Orton happens cause it would be a great feud and good match at WM. Edge always seems to steal the show.

 

 

[TonyZimmzy]

We'll probaly see Melina VS Ashley, because Ashley is going to be in Playboy.

 

We'll probaly also see Hardyz VS MNM in some crazy match that doesn't involve Ladders. No idea what it would be though.

 

Maybe not...

 

"Toy maker JAKKS is preparing to release a Jeff Hardy and Mr. Kennedy “Money in the Bank” toy set. This is an indication that they will be involved in this match at WrestleMania. "

[B Rob]

If Hardy is in the MITB then where does that put Orton?

[saintdave]

Good question CW, I was about to say a match with Edge but forgot he was in the MITB match. I do like Hardy but I'd rather Orton was in this match, if he was the final two would inevitably be him and Edge in a battle for the suitcase.

[B Rob]

I really don't want Edge to with MITB again. I love edge but I've seen enough of him and cena in the WWE Title picture. I want either Orton or Kennedy to win.

[TonyZimmzy]

I hope Orton doesn't end up in an opening card random match. Maybe there's still chance he'll end up in the match. Maybe he'll attack Jeff backstage and grab his spot, like people do in Royal Rumbles

[saintdave]

As arrogant and immature Orton is backstage his wrestling ability is not in question and to not use him in a match at the biggest ppv would be a very strange decision by the WWE.

[B Rob]

He'll be used. Either he will be in the MITB or Edge will lose his spot and him and Orton will feud.

[Red_Jacks&Purple_Nines]

Orton has just gotta be in there. WWE will be stupid if they didn't put him in.

[B Rob]

Rated RKO gets their rematch tonight with Cena/Michaels. I really don't want either of these teams to have the tag titles.

[TonyZimmzy]

Odds are that Cena/Michaels will retain but be thrown into some kind of huge tag title match sometime before WM and lose 'em.

 

Just read that there will be Wrestlers from all shows appearing on Single PPVs from now on, like it was at No Way Out This could be one step closer to ending the brand split!

 

Edit: Just found out that this years MITB Ladder Match at WrestleMania will have a grand total of eight men. So, Randy will probaly be in there

Edited February 26, 2007 by TonyZimmzy

[B Rob]

I read that too. 8 men? lol that will be crazy. Possibly Nitro, Shelton, Jeff Hardy from RAW. MVP, Matt Hardy, Kennedy from Smackdown. CM Punk, and Sabu from ECW. Edge walking out on Orton got us closer to their split up.

[saintdave]

As much as I like Rated-RKO as a team, a match between the two would be brilliant. Its also obvious that WWE values them as main event single wrestlers, being in a tag team has been for the short term benefit. Lets all pray for a hardcore match between them at 'mania 23.

[B Rob]

Yeah, anything with weapons would be great. I mean common Edge is great in any stipulation match.

[TonyZimmzy]

Unless Edge costs Orton a spot in the MITB match, and Edge gets his spot taken away for it, there isn't any way these two will meet at WM. Who would you cheer for in the match and boo? I'd probaly cheer for Orton, even though Edge is much better at pretty much everything in the ring.

[Vanilla Shake]

I'd cheer for Edge. I like Edge, but there's just something about Orton that always kept me from liking him. Even when he was face, I just couldn't f*cking stand him.

[B Rob]

Both of them are great heels. I think the wwe would turn orton face right now because Edge has more heat right now and is more over than orton.

[TonyZimmzy]

WWE will probaly always keep Edge as a heel until fans finally start doing what they did with Triple H, just cheering him all the time

 

I exploded when Orton won the belt @ Summerslam 2004, I literally jumped outta my seat when he nailed that RKO on Benoit, and I've loved him ever since.

[B Rob]

My fav's are probably Edge, Orton, and Mr Kennedy. Edge's matches are always great and hes the best heel in the WWE.

[MMFF]

I like Edge. Met him once. Just like to brag about that. I am a big Kennedy fan too. Shame I don't watch Smackdown that much though.

[B Rob]

Where did you meet him at, after a show? I usually watch smackdown somewhat. I try to catch the main event at least.

[saintdave]

Read this a few days ago but forgot to post/discuss.

 

Test was released from WWE/ECW. I didn’t read the article on WWE.com but this must be in relation to his recent 30 day suspension which I also assume was for drug use or really bad behaviour. Such a waste of a second chance, I like Test as a wrestler great moves and competent worker but his attitude seems to got worse as the years progress. TNA probably awaits him.
