My point about Wrestlemania is that its gonna be so predictable. I think that Bret "faked" his broken leg and once the match starts with Vince he's gonna throw down his crutches and that will be like he "screwed" Vince. You know Bret will ride off into the sunset with a win. I figure HBK will win, no way he will retire. They been talking about ending the streak forever now anyways.
You're probably right on with the Bret thing. He absolutely has to win and I wouldn't be surprised to see him come out on crutches, Vince laugh at him, kick out the crutch. He turns to gloat, Bret smiles, gets up quickly, and beats the hell out of him from behind with the crutch.

I think Taker will beat HBK and force him to "retire." As we all know, nobody really retires in pro wrestling. They'll both take some much needed rest. Michaels will return, probably in a non-wrestling role at first until he's forced to step back in the ring. Taker's streak will never be ended.

The only payoff that makes sense is Bret Hart literally beating the **** out of Vince McMahon for about 10-15 minutes. I'm talking old school, up the aisle, in the back, "10" on the Muta scale of blood beating. Vince needs to get zero offense, not even a sniff of it. Bret should be booked to just destroy Vince. That's the only payoff that I will be happy with.

They've made Bret look like a complete wuss/fairy these last few weeks, I'm hoping Vince will be man enough to let Bret get the proper blowoff and then be done with it.

I have a feeling all of this will happen, except for the blood. Remember, WWE is a PG product. Any time a wrestler accidentally gets cut and bleeds, the match stops while medics stop the bleeding.

But really, this is the only thing this match CAN be. Neither men can really take any bumps anymore. We'll be seeing a lot of punches and kicks, finished by a Sharpshooter. I will then immediately put in the Bret Hart DVD, watch him wrestle Mr. Perfect and try to forget what I just watched.

Which band does the "D-generation X" song? they sound like a poor man's Rage against the machine, what are they called? "Dissatisfaction against the device" or "Anger at the contraption"? whatever the case it's hilarious how much they sound like them.

Not sure, but Jack Swagger's theme is an even bigger RATM rip-off......not sure if it's the same band that did DX and Vince McMahons.

I googled it, and it said Chris Warren Band...

an interesting fact... Sinister from Daisy of Love plays bass for the band that does "No Chance in Hell"...

It's actually a Rage tribute band called "Age Against the Machine."

I'm not kidding.

OK I'm extremely psyched for Raw tonight..........McMahon, Hart and Austin all in the same ring. Also, I felt the need to share this amazing shirt I just purchased on amazon:

Right around the time with the Al Snow head and purchasing of ECW. When they purchased ECW that was it. They gave ECW their own show, and it made no sense. From then, I haven't watched it since.

Yup, but only after One Man Gang discovered that he was really African and decided to embrace his roots did he become Akeem, the African Dream.

As twisted as Vince can be in real life it wouldn't shock me if he did another "Montreal" on Brett at Mania just to piss him off even more.

Am I wrong in wishing they would go back to the way they had it before where you had a "cruiser weight" division, then an intercontinental/US champion division, tag division and a heavyweight division. All titles are a joke except for the world titles.

The Taker/Michaels video package was all sorts of awesome. It makes me want to actually care about that match. I doubt it tops last years, but it should be fun.

I still mark like a 12 year old when I hear Austin's glass shatter before he comes out.

He's really slimmed down too....

Why would Bret want a no DQ match following last week's Cena/Vince match? They've really screwed up this build.

Stone Cold announced as Special Guest Referee in 3...2....1....


*edit*

Just kidding. It was only revealed that the whole storyline with the leg was phony. Obviously. "Thank God Cena knows somebody in the Stint business."

That RAW was awful.
