If you were given the option to book the card however you wish, what would you do?
I posted this a month ago or so. This is tough to do because wwe has booked themselves in corners. I wouldn't say mine is all that special either. It's rather simple, straight forward, but i tried to make it a little more "unpredictable" It is going off current storylines. Had i actually been booking, i may have set up differently, and maybe book something like HBK vs. Randy Orton in the main event. Where Orton won the title at the rumble, and HBK won the rumble itself. Thus setting up a big homecoming for HBK, pff a ton of momentum from JBL.
A few weeks i would have said, Just throw Jericho in the world title match, because if you don't have a real match for him, no sense wasting him. I would have even considered throwing the hardys in there making it a 6 man for the championsihp (a WM first, to shake things up) The reason behind that, would be the whole Jeff not wanting to face his brother, plus it would free up a spot for another match.
Preshow (Raw vs SD 8 Man Tag)
Santino, Kane, Rhodes, Regal vs. Big Show, Khali, Kozlov, Mr. Kennedy
WM
Tommy Dreamer vs Jack Swagger (Do or Die match) - Dreamer says he wants one last shot at that belt. Swagger says he has to put his career on the line. Dreamer Loses.
Undertaker vs HBK - HBK says he's willing to put his Mr. Wrestlemania label on the line against the Undertaker. After a good 20 minute match Undertaker wins, due to JBL's help. Undertaker doesn't realize it at first and then see's it and destroys JBL.
Shelton vs CM Punk (US vs IC )
Just the typical I'm better than you match. Punk wins
MITB
Umaga vs. Dibaise vs. Morrison vs Bourne vs Koffi vs. JBL vs. MVP vs. Mysterio
JBL was supposed to enter the match, but HBK decides to take his place. Ends up winning a epic ladder match, but hurts his knee at the end of the match.
Chris Jericho vs. Christian, (With Flair/Rourke) - Chris Jericho continues to run his mouth on Raw, until Christian comes out and says he's tried of hearing about Y2J bitching and Challenges him to a match. Simple stuff. Y2J wins.
Jeff Hardy vs. Matt Hardy (Extreme Rules) - Jeff Hardy wins, Matt wants to shake hands, but Jeff Hardy refuses
John Cena vs. Randy Orton
Randy Orton wins....and John Cena attacks him after the match.
HHH vs. Edge
HHH is screwed out of the title at NWO, and gets a rematch at Mania. Edge says he has a plan at Mania. Edge decides to pay off the referee in the match with a conterversial 3 count. After the match Edge begins to attacks HHH with a chair, until HBK runs down with the MITB briefcase. Officials are everywhere, and its choas. HBK grabs the mic as HHH limps to the back. HBK says he's done a lot of wrong things over the years, and he's going to start making up for them now. Starts talking about not knowing how many more matches he has left in his tank. Tells HHH to come back down to the ring. Says he's sick of HHH getting screwed over by edge, hands the MITB to HHH, HHH wins (sets up HBK vs Edge next year)
With this show, i kinda wanted to go outside of the box. I was thinking how to give this show a unpredictable feeling, and still make sense. I think everything makes sense and should deliver a great show top to bottom. I'm sure not everyone would like HHH defeating Edge in the main event. If not, put Orton vs Cena on last. Those two are interchangable. I would imagine some people wouldn't liek Taker vs HBK to end with a flaky finish, early in the show, but again, sets up for HBK's events later on in the show.
I've been dying for it to happen and I think it may this year if Christian goes over, but do you think the MiTB will get cashed in the same night? If not, when?
Not this year. Lol, at least i almost hope not. Christian has zero momentum heading into this match. MVP has a ton. The wwe dropped the ball on Christians return (sorta) I wouldn't be incredibly shocked if he won, but to me, it wouldnt fit storyline wise. UNLESS, he won and challenged Jack Swagger. (Which may explain some things) But as it is now, I'd have to think someone like Shelton/MVP is the favorite. Can't count out CM Punk.
I wouldnt even mind someone not even in the match come out and tries to get the breifcase (Edge-style) Someone like a Mr. Kennedy, Ted Dibiase, John Morrision.
have you seen the King of cable match between sting/vader???
Yep, its on the starrcade DVD. Its a good match. Idk if i'd say Sting's best, however i can't think of too many better matches. Maybe Sting vs Flair, or a war games match. But yeah, certain one of Stings best. I think i rated it 4.00 to 4.25
Sting has had a few good matches in TNA as well. Maybe something like Sting vs Jarrett/Angle may rank up there too.
I'm not a huge sting fan. I'd the blond old stinger, better than the crow sting.
what did you thought of Vader?
I liked Vader, certainly one of the most talented big men ever. He was great in WCW. THey booked him perfectly. WWE dropped the ball with Vader. I just saw the HBK vs. Vader SummerSlam match, and good match, but the match pace was interesting because at first HBK was the aggressor and Vader was taking everything HBK had, to start the match. I thought Vader should have been dominating HBK. I guess it wasn't the right time/place for Vader in the wwe. Certainly you cant discredit his WCW/Japan work from a failed wwe run though.
