wrestling The Big Wrestling Thread!

Sorry, I have no idea. And it looks like no one in the comments on the video have any clue either. It's most likely an in-house piece of music; if that's the case, then I'm afraid you won't hear it anywhere outside of that promo, unless by some freak occurrence, it ends up as a superstar's entrance theme. :p

:(

Thanks for replying though :)

Spoiler if you haven't watched SmackDown yet, but then again, WWE.com already spoiled it themselves on Wednesday. :p

The greatest ending to an episode of SmackDown in years. :D

Undertaker Retiring This Year After Wrestlemania?

Listen carefully to Triple-H. He talks about "the end of an era". Is the Undertaker hanging up his boots for good this year?

I'm pretty much expecting him to retire at WrestleMania. Ever since last year, I believe that they'll round off the streak at 20-0, and then he'll retire. There was a little rumour not too long ago about holding WrestleMania 29 in Houston and having Taker retire in his hometown, but they announced this week it's being held in New Jersey...

...so yeah, I'm fully expecting him to retire this year.

BTW, they also announced that The Rock's gonna be appearing at WrestleMania 29. Maybe another match?

thats a great WM logo

Once Taker is gone, that's it. The WWE better start making changes to make RAW and Smackdown exciting again.

He's basically been gone for two years already.

It indeed is.(Y)

On account of undertaker retiring, well, its about time. Though I hate to say it, but it had to be done sooner or later.

Dude, he's wrestled like 5 matches in the last 2 years!

[Muhammad Farrukh]

I dont even remember the last time I saw him in a match :shiftyninja:

It was actually WrestleMania 27. He spent 11 months out of action, beat Triple H, then went into hibernation until he returned on RAW a few weeks ago.

Not quite accurate. He was pretty regular through 2010, and had the WHC during the year. He got injured in May, was out for a few months, came back and was buried alive by Kane and The Nexus (dropped storyline? no way) at Bragging Rights 2010. After that he was out til the run up to WM27, and now he's back til WM28.

Calloway is tired. His body can no longer take the punishment so he is going to retire this year.

Ahh sorry, I got the dates mixed up. So yeah, he only spent four months out of action before WM27.

[MightyJordan]

CM Punk's gone clean (shaven, that is)...

:p

[MightyJordan]

...well god damn, I almost had a mark-out moment on two occasions during Elimination Chamber. :p And both of them involved

Santino Marella. The first one was when they were showing his training routine, because they were playing Eugene's music, I honestly thought he was back! :laugh: Then the second time was when he hit the Cobra on Daniel Bryan and almost won! Damn the writers for putting him so close yet so far!

Oh, and

boo to whoever organised the order of the matches. The WWE title match first? The Divas title match after the WWE title match? Jack Swagger vs. Justin Gabriel after both Chamber matches?!

[Mazhar]

Triple H finally accepts Undertaker's challenge, but under one condition: Hell in a Cell!

Oh. My. God.

I called it more than 2 weeks ago....

Its the only way to make it again interesting again. I wish (I know it wont because of the stupid PG era) it would bloody as hell because as they said: They are the end of the only true ones left.

[htcz]

By the way, I think it was said that Triple H (internally) wanted to steal the show from Rock vs Cena. Well he got it. 1 entire year promoting the Cena vs Rock match and all that thrown away. It really doesn't matter who is in: Hell In A Cell matches always sell....Question is (like I said because of the ****ing PG crap) will it be worth it?

[Scorbing]

So what do you think is going to happen? What is your prediction on this match?

[Mazhar]

So what do you think is going to happen? What is your prediction on this match?

As to my analysis, it depends on how WWE sees Undertaker's future. If Undertaker is to remain a brand for some more years, which is more likely to happen (as we heard some rumours Taker facing Sting, Cena, etc...), I see Undertaker winning this match. If WWE wants Cena, Sting and some more popular faces to wrestle Undertaker at WrestleMania, then Taker has to remain undefeated.

Now if Taker is not very good health wise, then this may end this year and HHH may win, which I think is the best chance for the Undertaker because there can be no one as good as triple H who can beat Taker at Mania. If the Streak has to end some day, then I do not see anyone better to end it but Triple H.

[Muhammad Farrukh]

Triple H won't win.

They can't let Undertaker lose

[htcz]

So what do you think is going to happen? What is your prediction on this match?

Well Ill go ahead and predict all the matches:

The Rock vs. John Cena : Cena no question. Not because I like or dislike the guy but the match is more symbolic: Rock passing the torch to Cena. You have to respect the Rock for losing at Wrestlemania in your hometown. There is not going to be another Wrestlemania in Miami in The Rock's future. That being said, I see Rock doing a Hogan: Movies movies movies movies movies, and at a advanced age returning to "sports entertainment".

Daniel Bryan ? vs. Sheamus: Ill choose Sheamus on this one. Bryan's run has been a bit too long so I think they are going to have Sheamus win.

CM Punk ? vs. Chris Jericho: This one is a diffiicult one. Im not sure if they want Jericho again in the spotlight or keep CM Punk's popularity on the rise. Can't say. Also, lets see how Chris Brown gets involved in all of this.

The Undertaker vs. Triple H (Hell In A Cell): Hardest one. As a side note, This is the forth time these 2 go at Wrestlemania, which leeds instinct to be that this will be the end of the streak. But, Triple H said it himself, The Undertaker is a brand, a product, that no matter how old he is, people want to see him

Some matches not confirmed but I think will happen:

R-Truth and Kofi Kingston vs Epico & Primo: R-Truth and Kofi Kingston . Does anyone agree that R-Truth is the most entertaining guy on the roster right now? :p

Big Show and Cody Rhodes: Big Show. (It would be cruel not to give him the Intercontinental title at least :p )

Money in the Bank

Swagger vs someone (If they dont give him the MITB match, Santino???)

John Laurinaitis vs Teddy Long: Teddy Long

Beth Phonix vs Tamina Snuka: Beth Phonix

This is actually the third time they are facing at Mania, not fourth time. 1st was WM 17 and second was last year.

Ok this is where i dont respect triple H, he has to hog the limelight all the time. Even during the cena rise era of 2006 onwards he tried with all his might to be the bigger star but people didnt accept it. Now he has to show cena and rock down with a hell in a cell match with the undertaker. That is just his big ass ego.

That is why i absolutely love jericho, he not only talks the talk but also walks the walk when he says that he wants new guys to come on top. Just see some of his numerous interviews all over the youtube. He is an amazing performer and has been since his early days (by early i mean wcw not the mexican or japanese promotions he performed for)

I really wish to see jericho win the match along with the rock. Rock has and always will be the greatest when it comes down to getting people involved in the theatrics. People respond to him unlike any other superstar (atleast since i started watching) even undertaker doesnt get the same pop that the rock gets.

My hopes are for the folllowing

Cena v/s Rock = Rock

Triple H v/s Undertaker = Undertaker

CM Punk v/s Jericho = Jericho (I know he wont be booked to win but i can hope)

I dont really care about the other matches :p
