This is by far the most stacked Wrestlemania in years, superstar wise. Now with Lesnar most likely making an appearance, I am even more excited (for the first time in years, really). I just hope the WWE doesn't drop the ball by not having clean finishes in matches (at least the big ones), and not splitting the time fairly. I honestly don't want to see an hour long match between The Rock and John Cena. I would much rather see a long match between CM Punk and Chris Jericho.

agreed, I hope to be honest the Rock/Cena crapfest will be no more then 30 minutes

After seeing the following again, I'm thinking that a Lesnar vs Austin match could be pretty good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4fkB-L2qWs

By the way, people in this thread are talking about

Lesnar

possibly making an appearance, but I haven't seen anyone comment on the rumours that

Batista

will also be making an appearance. What do you all think of that? I'd love to see him return.

Perhaps he'll do a run in and actually perform a proper Shooting Star Press. I still to this day have no idea why he did it.

Probably because he has pulled it off before...

Haha, I saw that on the Botchamania page earlier! :laugh: Kevin Steen grabbed the sign from a fan then tore it up. Hopefully we'll see one at WrestleMania too!

Ok i've been proven wrong :laugh: - never actually seen that old footage of him doing one. Still the one time to mess it up on the "biggest stage of them all".

I dunno still something about him back then that just didn't interest me at all. Maybe because i was more of a fan of the high risk, fast paced matches.

I posted yesterday or the day before about it when it was reported he is in fact in Miami and "awaiting transportation by the WWE". Not sure how I feel about him coming back right now. I'd much rather see Lesnar back (at least, for awhile, not that fond of him either to be honest) and have some matches with the top talent nowadays. Lesnar vs. Punk? Sign me up!

"BAH GAWD BAH GAWD LESNAR JUST F5'ED PUNK IN HALF. MAH GAWD HE SAWED HIM IN HALF, HE MIGHT BE DEAD!" - How JR would call it at WM 29 :D

Both of them can go. Its not going to be as bad as you think.

Not only that, but Cena isn't actually limited to his "5 moves of doom". Well he is, but only by WWE creative keeping him in the same shtick for years now. Heaven forbid they let him open up his moveset at WM against the Rock here! Hey maybe he'll pull out some new (old) moves who knows.

Also, I think Rocky is in better shape now than ever to be honest. He's solid as a rock (no pun intended) and has like zero fat on him it looks like. Not that he had much fat previously, just saying. And like, he had a year to get rid of any extra flab he might not want people to see I suppose....

According to Wrestling Observer, Brock Lesnar has signed a one year deal with WWE after leaving for UFC in 2004.

Brock Lesnar has arrived in Miami and arrived with security and a large group of people shielding him from everyone. This is the going story, but not confirmed, that Lesnar has signed a one year deal and will work a more than Undertaker and less than Goldberg type of schedule.

As of earlier this afternoon (Saturday), WWE was currently re-writing parts of tomorrow's WrestleMania 28 show.

At this time, it is not known what was getting re-written, but there are parts of the show undergoing changes.

Well Im going to start closing the tab that displays this thread on my browser as I see Wrestelmania (and any other WWE event) 24 hours after you guys see it so dont want to spoil anything for me :)

These are my final predictions :)

Epico and Primo © vs. Justin Gabriel and Tyson Kidd vs. The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso)

[sad to see not even a decent tag team match on the card at WM]

The Rock vs. John Cena

[Even though there have been rumors in this thread about a rematch, still going with Cena even though The Rock has been my favorite of all time]

Triple H vs. The Undertaker

CM Punk © vs. Chris Jericho

[it can go either way but I see Punk winning]

Daniel Bryan © vs. Sheamus ["Upset of the night". I will say though that if Punk wins his match, Sheamus will win this one. Also if this is on the card, same applies. I don't think they make both titles switch hands on the same night although it wouldn't be the first time it happens]

Cody Rhodes © vs. The Big Show

[Rhodes I think needs to start heading towards larger (no pun intended) objectives. Big Show's character is pretty much nothing right now. Another that can go either way and depends on the outcome of the rest

Randy Orton vs. Kane

[Time filler. This doesn't deserve a match at Wrestelmania since the feud is so weak]

Team Teddy (Santino Marella (captain), R-Truth, Kofi Kingston, Zack Ryder, The Great Khali, and Booker T) (with Hornswoggle) vs. Team Johnny (David Otunga (captain), Mark Henry, Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, The Miz, and Drew McIntyre) (with Vickie Guerrero)

[second most pointless match of the night. It would have been a lot better to have these 12 in a Money In The Bank match. Or at least make it a elimination tag team match, as we know tag matches that are so large usually just spiral out of control.

Kelly Kelly and Maria Menounos vs. Beth Phoenix and Eve Torres [The most stupid match of the night. At least make Beth defender her title against someone decent or who could care her out (ex: Kharma) ]

Rule that Kharma comment out. Most of you that are up to update on all the wresting news probably know this but:

WWE Diva Kharma (Kia Stevens) tells TMZ she did not actually give birth to a boy on December 31, but that her child died before she was able to give birth. Stevens says she told friends she gave birth to a boy because she was "incredibly emotional and was afraid to tell the public the truth after announcing her pregnancy on live TV." Stevens says she plans to start a foundation for women who have gone through a similar experience. Stevens, who returned to WWE TV at the Royal Rumble in January, is still on leave of absence from WWE.

I think a lot of people were looking forward to seeing her, a different type of Diva woman, in the WWE.....

    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I think you missed his point. He wasn't saying that cloud storage isn't possible on GNU/Linux, clearly it is. He was pointing out that you are commenting about your dislike of Windows on an article about OneDrive (not Windows) for Mac (also not Windows). Its about as off topic as coming to an article about Sony improving something on the PlayStation and saying that you hate Sony TVs and prefer LG.
    • Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Nvidia has a fresh update for GeForce NOW subscribers today, bringing in more games to add to its ever-growing supported titles list. At the same time, the company announced the kick-off for its summer sale for the streaming subscription service, dropping the prices for both its premium packages for anyone looking to upgrade or join. The offer is for the 12-month membership options that the company offers. This drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. Next, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping prices by $70 from the original $199.99. "The Performance membership delivers smooth, high-quality cloud gaming across devices, with streaming up to 1080p at 60 frames per second (fps) and access to RTX-powered servers for supported games," says Nvidia, describing its tiers. "The Ultimate membership steps things up with RTX 4080‑ or 5080‑class performance in the cloud, supporting up to 4K and beyond on ultrawide displays, up to 120 fps, and advanced features like ray tracing, NVIDIA DLSS and NVIDIA Reflex for a more responsive, visually rich experience." With the sales out of the way, here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: NBA THE RUN (New release on Steam, available on June 9) Witchspire (New release on Steam, available on June 10) SpaceCraft (New release on Steam, available on June 11) Duet Night Abyss (Launcher) DOOM Eternal (Epic Games Store) The Elder Scrolls Online (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Farever (Steam) World of Tanks: HEAT (Wargaming) Nvidia plans to add support for a bunch of more games during the rest of June. Find the full announcement from last week over here. Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month.
    • Microsoft explains why PowerToys 0.100.0 is faster and slimmer, there are new features too

      It's actually shocking how logs filling disks has been a constant issue going back for decades, yet we see very little improvement over the years. Even in the server world, its actually shockingly common for a server to either go totally down, or have a critical alert raised due to logs filling disks.
    • YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries by David Uzondu Late last year, YouTube started testing a "new" way to share videos directly with friends, without having to leave the app. Now, the video giant has announced that is now rolling out a revamped direct messaging inbox, which lets you share videos, Shorts, and live streams and have conversations about them, directly on YouTube. The platform limits this feature to 18+ users who are signed in to a verified channel and use the latest mobile app version. Direct messaging on YouTube first became a thing back in 2017 inside the mobile app (later renamed to "Messages"), where users could chat one-on-one and share clips directly, but all that came to an end on September 18, 2019, when Google decided to shut it down after giving users a month to download a .zip file archive of their past chats. No one really knows why YouTube killed the feature, but users were encouraged to migrate to the public Comments section, on Community tab posts, and via YouTube Stories. The previous incarnation suffered from moderation challenges, prompting Google to implement stricter safety guidelines and age verifications for this new iteration. Here's a list of the countries where the re-launched feature is currently available, though note that Brand Accounts do not have access to it, at least for now: Countries American Samoa Austria Belgium Brazil Bulgaria Croatia Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Guam Hungary Iceland Ireland Italy Latvia Liechtenstein Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Northern Mariana Islands Norway Poland Portugal Puerto Rico Romania Singapore Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden Switzerland U.S. Virgin Islands United Kingdom United States Before you can use the feature, you first have to send an invite link to your contact. Invite links expire exactly seven days after you create them. If the person on the other end accepts the invite, you can exchange videos directly and text back and forth inside the app. To delete a message, just long-press on the message and tap unsend to remove it for both users. You can also delete entire conversations by long-pressing the thread and selecting delete, but the other person will continue to see the chat history on their end. To make sure everything remains safe, YouTube monitors these messages to ensure they follow Community Guidelines.
