Yeah, neither Punk or Cena need the rub, but the dilemma with ending Taker's streak is that you can't really give the honour to someone outside of their position (establish main-eventers who are practically considered veterans of the industry now). And, well, there aren't many others who you could realistically see being suitable to end the streak. Yeah, physically you could give the task to, say, Big E Langston, but imagine the levels of rage that'd invoke! :laugh:

I think Vince would give it to Ryback if Taker would do the job.

Realistically, Sheamus could use it because he's not completely over either.

I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled a swerve and did a no contest finish.

I was thinking that the match never gets started officially.

Cena just said he's looking forward to the Fandango match. Sounds like everyone likes Johnny Curtis (and Jericho, obviously).

Wrestlers to have their first on-air WWE/F match at a WM (after Sunday): Fandango, Big E Langston, and Undertaker.

As much as I would love to see Punk beat Taker and all, I just don't think it's going to happen. Realisitically (for wrestling lol) Taker's streak is a pretty big deal at this point. Now I'm sure Taker himself would have no problem letting someone beat him, after all he's always put over other talent and he's just a great company guy. But Vince probably doesn't want the streak to end. Punk doesn't need the rub like you guys have said, neither does Cena obviously. If anyone should end the streak it should be an up and comer (and not some fad like Ryback, seriously let's be honest about him) who has a bright future and everyone agrees on it. Someone like Cody Rhodes or Wade Barrett for example, could totally use the rub of that kind of victory.

But it would also have to be a clean victory for someone like that. If it was Punk (or hell Cena etc) a dirty win would be acceptable, even expected. But in the end, I just don't think the streak will end. Taker has at most one more WM after this I think, and at this point he should just retire with the streak intact.

Actually, Undertaker had his first on-air WWF match at Survivor Series. I think I heard mention of a woman having her first match at WrestleMania too, but I can't find it at the moment.

Wow, you're right.

As for the women - I'm referring to actual wrestlers, not one-time or very part time like Floyd Mayweather or Akebono.

That's what I was referring to as well, but the tweet I saw was probably including celebrities, which would mean they were thinking of Snooki... :/

Rumors are going around about Cesaro and Kaitlyn being involved in matches, so it makes sense they have workout videos.

- There's a possibility Kaitlyn and AJ will be added to the Tag Team Title match, with the Divas Title also being on the line.

- With Sin Cara now cleared to work in the ring, we might get Cesaro vs. Sin Cara for the US Title.

      Agreed. And this is a great discount offer! It's a shame that there's no discount offer option for people who would be fine subscribing for a year-long term, but pay monthly.
    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
