Damn, what a poor end to a legacy...Alberto. I hate Alberto, he's just boring as sin and I don't find him all that interesting.

I don't wanna be surprised, it can only be one of two anyway. probably CM punk.


They could always throw the mask back on him.

Though yeah when i heard Alberto Del Rio came back my general reaction was "Oh yeah, he exists."

I totally forgot about him.

 

They should give him some of the million dollar man's gimics...  use that "wealth" and have him pay fans money each week to humilate themselves.

Hmmm, so was it a good pay per view overall? I only wanna see the elimination chambers and I'm vaguely interested in the kane/cena match, if only to see how dumb it is. that rivalry is dumb. Tomorrow we see sheamus chose who he'll be fighting. I kinda hope it's bryan just to see bryan finally lose. Sheamous would NOT tolerate his bullshit, he'd go ballistic and put a hurtin on him.

Also, downloaded Elimination Chamber 2011 because I was bored, and I am le sad. Edge and Mysterio were truly awesome in that fight, where the hell are they? (Well edge retired I know, but where's mysterio?!) also, I thought Edge was a heel when he retired.

Yeah, PPV was great.  Every match (though it wasn't that many matches) was engaging except the last match.  Why they decided to end the ELIMINATION CHAMBER PPV with Cena vs. Kane in a shitty match is beyond me.  They started with the best match so that it wouldn't overshadow Cena v. Kane.  They even tossed in an impromtu match between Jack Swagger and Justin Gabriel to cool down the crowd and even that match was decent.  I won't tell you who Sheamus decided to go against at WM.  I'll let you be surprised.

Last year's Chamber was great. It was the reason I went ahead and ordered this year's Chamber.  I didn't expect much from the Smackdown match but it was surprising.  I don't know why The Great Khali was even in the match.  He's got a ton of mobility issues.  He can barely walk.  All he has going for him is that he's really tall and looks strong.  He lasted probably 60 seconds before being taken out.  Total waste of space.  As for Mysterio, he's been out with some injury for a while.  Should be coming back any day now, though.  And Edge went face for a couple months before he retired.  He was feuding with Kane for a while.  Final match was against Alberto Del Rio.

Mark Henry was suspended by Teddy long.

And that's why you should never play the lottery.  One out of two chances to win and you chose wrong!  Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania.

yeah, that sounds like a LOT of fun, and I think he's gonna win.  I wonder who's gonna fight against CM Punk.  I hope it's good. 

Am I the only one that thinks rivalries just don't last long enough?  I mean, Wade Barrett vs Randy Orton could have been epic but just ended up lame and stunted.  they fought for a PPV, Randy got injured, came back 6 weeks later...and they did what before it was over?  now Randy's fighting Big show then got kicked off again and it was like the Wade Barrett thing never happened.  

I wanna see some long-standing, epic rivalries.  I wanna see something like Rock vs Stone Cold, I wanna see HHH vs Mankind, I wanna see Hardys vs Dudleys vs Conquistadores, I wanna see....something that lasts longer than a couple months and isn't just...dropped.  I want to see some resolutions dammit.  I wanna see an END to a rivalry instead of just wondering "is it over? did they move on?"

Most likely itll be Jericho since he technically wasn't eliminated. Also itll go with the whole who is the best in the world thing.

Yup.

Fell asleep before RAW came on but I saw the last hour or so. I'm getting a little hyped for WM. If they do it right, I'll order that PPV, too.

Raw was fairly stale tonight outside of the promo between HHH and Taker.

Santino got buried in a match, Wade Barret got injured, Cena did a good promo and a boring one, two second diva tag filler, and Jericho will face CM Punk at mania.

I think they made Santino look strong in that battle royal, though.  Yeah, he got squashed by Daniel Bryan but he was always a comic relief character (and the best Intercontenental Champion since the Honky Tonky Man).  I don't know what the WWE can do with him.  People love him but he's be built as this lovable underdog goofball.  He actually has some talent--you gotta have talent to make looking bad look so good--but as soon as he starts beating the big guys, people will turn on him.

I saw that botch with Ziggler and Barret.  I'll have to look at it again.  I knew SOMEBODY was hurt.  I just figured it was Ziggler, the way his head hit the announcer's table.  They say Barret may have a broken arm.  Hate to hear that.  Even though he's a heel, he's been entertaining, lately.  I honestly don't know who WWE is going to push to victory with Rock vs. Cena.  Looking forward to watching it unfold, though.  Still not too keen on HHH vs. Undertaker. Wish he'd have said this match is a career ender.

I know it would never happen but I'd like to see Taker lose at Wrestlemania.

Set up some hydraulics under the ring to make it shake or something. After an intense match, Undertaker gets pinned right in the middle of the ring. The light go dim, the arena fills with fog, the ring starts to shake, and he disappears. His opponent is baffled.

Next night, on RAW, we see The Undertaker. He looks like a normal guy. He's wearing a suit. His hair and beard have some gray. He explains how, for over twenty years, he's been a prisoner. He's been looking for some sort of chosen one to defeat him at Wrestlemania (like that French guy in Talladega Nights). Now that he's been defeated, he's free. Then he smiles and walks out of the ring, not as the Undertaker. As normal Mark Calaway. He never explains what he was a prisoner of. It's open to interpretation.

A good end to a good career.

 

Oh, and as he walks away, heading towards the light, he looks back.  His eyes have rolled back into his head and his pupils are no longer visable.  He turns and walks away.
