[Ultra Warrior]

At being overrated maybe.

 

[Turf Toe]

The best of all time.

[CATCH17]

Yeah right.

Shawn Michaels has had some of the most epic controversies/matches ever.

And if you're not down with that, well, I just have 2 words for ya....

 

[CM Duck]

since none of u will be at my house to watch Mania with me Ill give my big prediction 4 the main events....

Edge will win (UGH!)

Orton wins (with at least one of the McMahons turning on Trips...even tho I dont want that, its a hunch I have)

Taker beats HBK in the match of the night.

that would be cool. I was honestly thinking maybe stephanie will turn on hhh or maybe just cause i'm trying to figure out a way they have hhh actually lose.

 

[BigWillie]

It makes pefect sense for HHH to take revenge for what Orton has done with his family. But that would be the logical thing. we have to remember this is the WWE and Logical things dont really happen here.......

but on the other hand, Orton doesnt need this win @ WM to stay at the top of his game. hes easily gonna have many more shots later on his career.

I actually believe Rey beats JBL. (I dislike him so much)

Actually, it makes no sense for HHH to win. Orton is being built as the next great heel in the wrestling business and his epic push would be put to a screaming halt by giving HHH the win. Plus, what does HHH gain by winning? It's just another win in his career, but for Orton it continues to cement the future the WWE is building for him.

Having HHH win would be the equivalent of Hogan beating Sting at Starrcade '97. Although Sting left with the belt that night, Hogan got the clean win ruining the storyline that WCW had built up for over a year. And for what?

The only logical move for the WWE to do is for Orton to win (although heels rarely do in the main event at WM), then to continue this storyline.

awesome post and I hope you're right.

 

[Longboysfan]

watchin WWE RAW. Looked like Marion Barber sittin front row behind Jerry "The King" Lawler.

I'm sure there are quite a few Cowboys there tonite.

You and the players should be in the tape room reviewing plays from last year.

 

[PullMyFinger]

lol

I've watched wrasslin since as long as I can remember, as long as I've been a Cowboys fan...

I remember all my friends laughin at me when they found out as kids. Then they were "life long" fans of it when it was cool to watch during the "ATTITUDE" era(Stone Cold, The Rock, etc)

Just like my friends use to laugh when I'd wear my Cowboys gear in 90-91 as they wore Oilers gear. Then a couple of years later they jumped on that bandwagon as well, trading in their Monn jersey for an Aikman one...

LOL I used to love it

Gold Dust was my boy.

Loved his finishing move.

 

[CATCH17]

Barber isn't nearly crazy enough to be the Warrior. That man is seriously NUTS

The curtain call.


I used to be a hardcore wrestling junky until about 2000.

 

[jswalker1981]

I saw

Choice
Ware
MB
Irvin
Folk
Felix
Stanbach

I had to rewind and count them. Not sure who the Carp look alike was..unless he cut his hair??

I thought it was 100% participation at the voluntary workouts, maybe it is RAW instead.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

I haven't watched nearly as much in the last few years but from when I was a kid up until about 3 years ago I watched nearly every single show that was on TV and from 97-2004 I watched every single WWE PPV that they had. I love wrestling, just not as interested in it anymore.

My favorites of all time are:

1) HBK
2) Austin
3)Hogan
4) Flair
5) Rhodes

That's my top five but there are tons of others, of course, like HHH, Taker, Mr. Perfect, Rick Rude, Arn Anderson, Foley, Sting, etc.

As for HHH winning...I think he will and I honestly don't have an issue with that. For the most part, if you think back over the last several years, HHH normally loses at Mania. He's won a few times at Mania but most of the time, going all the way back to when Warrior squashed him in like 1 minute, he loses at Mania.

I mean think about it...he's lost to Warrior, Taker, Benoit, Cena, Batista, and he just lost to Orton, in a triple threat, at last years Mania where Orton retained the title.

I'd imagine they're going to have HHH win this year because it's been a couple of years since he won a Mania match up. In fact he hasn't won a match at Mania since 2003 when he defeated Booker T to retain the world title. He's lost every year at Mania, since then, except one and that one was a couple of years ago when he missed the event with a blown out quad.

As for the Taker/HBK match I'm really hoping Taker wins (Despite the fact that HBK is my all time favorite) because I think they owe it to him to let him retire undefeated at Mania. The man has been the constant of the WWE during his career, never leaving or anything, and never having to be the Champion all the time. I believe, at this point, he's by far the longest tenured active wrestler there and he's had half the title reigns of the majority of the big time stars. He's never, that I remember, ever been an IC or US or any other secondary champion other than a tag team champion a few times to go with a few world title reigns.

Mania is HIS thing and he should keep that.

HBK has done absolutely EVERYTHING that you can do with them. He's a multiple time world champion, he's a two time Royal Rumble winner (The first guy to ever go coast to coast in one), he's been IC champion more than once, he was European Champion, he's a multiple time Tag team Champion, he's been in some of the best matches ever, he was in the first ever Ladder Match for WWE, the first ever Hell in a Cell, the first ever Elimination Chamber. His resume speaks for itself, he doesn't need this win over Taker.


And all that said I'll actually be there, live, Sunday night for Mania! WOOOOOOOOOOOO! GO ME! I'm also going to the Hall of Fame show the night before and what a night to be there....Austin, the Funks, Steamboat, the Von Ericks, all getting inducted on one night. Awesome!

I'm really looking forward to this weekend.

Did anybody know that the Ultimate Warrior became I think a motivational speaker...and then legally changed his name to Warrior.

Yep. I've seen on youtube a couple of his speeches. He's actually not a bad speaker, at all, he's just got a tendency to ruin what he's doing by being a little over the top and nuts.

The guy is...different, for sure.

 

[The Panch]

The best of all time.

He was a punk backstage back in the day, but one of the greatest in ring performers of all time. I didnt like him too much as a face, but as a heel in 97-98, he was one of the greatest. Him with DX and smashing on the Hart Foundation and Canada.


Too bad his back injury made him miss most of the Attitude Era. He would've made it even better.

 

[The Panch]

At being overrated maybe.

You better respect the Showstopper. The headliner. The main event. The Icon.

 

[BruceWayne]

I grew up on NWA wrestling in the 80's Dusty Rhoads (sp), Magnum TA and the 4 horsman those were some battles. I'm a Stone Cold fan to

 

[dest]

Does anyone know around how long into the show you could see Barber and everyone? Or what was going on in or outside the ring at the time?

I downloaded it and was going to screenshot it, but I can't find Barber and I don't want to watch this whole thing.

Here's one I've found so far:

 

[thechosen1n2]

why were they all there?

ps my favorite in no order:

kerry and david von eric (didnt really like kevin and mike), stone cold, ice man king parsons, the rock (tho he was terrible wrestler), junk yard dog, and rick flair.
