Fatal 4 Way Plans

As noted before, there is talk of having a four-way match for the Unified Tag Team Titles at WWE's Fatal 4 Way pay-per-view. Fatal 4 Way may also see the winner of NXT make his pay-per-view debut and The Miz vs. Daniel Bryan is another possible match for the show.

One of the working ideas has been for the winner of NXT team with his Pro for a Unified Tag Team Title shot. This could be Chris Jericho & Wade Barrett, R-Truth & David Otunga or Matt Hardy & Justin Gabriel getting the title shot. Another possible ending for NXT is for David Otunga to win and challenge R-Truth for the United States Title.

It's been said that Otunga, Barrett and Bryan are the only three NXT rookies who are guaranteed a main roster spot, although Gabriel is likely to stick around also as they like his in-ring work.

It should also be noted that current plans call for Sheamus to win the WWE Championship, with the move expected to take place at WWE's upcoming Fatal 4-Way pay-per-view. WWE wants to book Sheamus as a strong champion heading into SummerSlam.

Creative is pitching an idea for Sheamus taking on a returning Triple H at the event. As always, plans can and always do change on a weekly basis.


So I guess we're looking at a Triple H title reign heading into the fall? Hopefully we won't see him take the title off Sheamus and have him drop right back off again. Only way I'd love to see that is if we're talking HHH's heel turn.

Please, move Sheamus on to someone else. I don't want to see him vs Hunter again.

Their feud was good, but it should have ended with Sheamus putting him out. We don't need HHH coming back and switching the momentum right back. HHH lost the feud, accept it and move on. I'd like to see a non title HHH/Edge feud when he returns. The eventual heel HHH vs. Orton could be extremely bad ass, if not for the horrible matches the have together.

I don't think it would be wise to turn HHH heel. That would put Sheamus, HHH, Jericho, Edge, Miz, all in the same brand as heels. Total overload.

Sheamus WWE champ again? FTW!

 

[OrtonMark54]

The eventual heel HHH vs. Orton could be extremely bad ass, if not for the horrible matches the have together.

As you said, the build up for HHH vs Orton has always been good. People tend to forget how great the build to their mania match was two years ago. It was among the best the WWE has put out there in years. However, for whatever reason, the two just don't jell in the ring together. There only good match was the last man standing in 07. You would think two guys with that much talent would be able to consistently put on great matches together, but it just rarely happens.

For that very reason, I would keep them away from each other. The WWE always exerts all its engery into their feuds, only to have them come up short when the actual match occurs.

I'd have Sheamus win the belt and take on Orton, HHH return and face off against Jericho, and Cena enter a feud with Edge.

I think this would be a pretty cool idea. But it would only work if Barrett or Gabriel won since they've gotten along with their pro the whole series. A Gabriel/Hardy team doesn't sound too bad. And seeing as though I like Truth and Otunga, I wouldn't mind seeing them feud over the title. But if Otunga goes to Raw, it has burial and getting lost written all over it.

As always, plans can and always do change on a weekly basis.

Translation: We're really just making guesses here that anyone could have. This isn't real news.

I know they generally deliver, but Cena/Edge was only finally put to bed at Backlash last year and bearing in mind they've had virually every match under the sun and that the heel/face dynamic hasn't changed I can't see it leading to a whole lot. Jericho/Cena & HHH/Edge would at least be a little fresher even if not entirely new.

BUT... I'd like to see Cena/Seamus, Orton/Jericho, HHH/Edge.

Summerslam does have HHH v Seamus (WWE Champ ) written all over it mind.

 

[MizMasta3000]

Honestly, I don't think WWE knows what to do with Cena not in the title picture.

im hoping for jericho and barrett getting a title shot but with the dubut of the uso group i see the hart dynasty getting a title shot over jericho and barrett.
