I don't care how you all feel about Brock vs HHH 2 but that segment was hot as hell!!! I loved that.
 
Oh come on, they didn't show any of Brock's attacks on Triple H in the replay. :dry:
 
What's wrong leaving it as Taker never defeating Lesnar? That just adds to the monster aura even more.

There are several reasons why I don't want the match to happen:

1. Taker doesn't need the win. His loss to Lesnar happened 11 years ago and it was about putting Brock over. Plus he was full-time. Getting the win back means nothing, and leaving Brock as an unstoppable juggernaut who could one day get defeated by a rising full time star can do a lot in the long term, financial wise and for the future of the company. Imagine Seth Rollins breaking away from Shield, getting built up for a year or so, and then coming across Brock and being the one who beats them. That's enough to strap a rocket to Rollins' back and ride him to the bank. Seth Rollins...the man who put down the Beast.

Besides, how many clean jobs has Taker done for the people he's beaten over the years?

2. Brock doesn't need the win. On his own, Brock is a beast. He's part-timer not around to carry the company. Let the Streak get ended by another who the company can use as a star all year round.

3. I don't have confidence in the match's quality. Their matches happened 10 to 11 years ago, and Taker was younger, healthier, and could really go. Nowadays, his movement is limited, he's not in the best condition. And Brock's style is much different than it was then, much more physical.

There was also nothing “wrong” with Taker never beating HBK…dosen’t mean I and other fans didn’t want to see it happen. And you guys keep talking about Lesnar one day potentially putting someone over when A. He could still do that after losing to Taker and B. WWE isn’t gonna waste Lesnar’s limited schedule on him facing a rising star. The only current gen guys Lesnar may face (that he hasn’t already) is Orton, Punk, and possibly Sheamus. Getting the win means nothing for Taker? No, it means that Taker could finally say he beat Lesnar one on one, and not only that, he adds Lesnar to the list of “Souls” he has taken at WM.

Honestly….besides internet fans, no one’s interested in a potential Rollins vs Lesnar….but I know what match a lot of people have wanted to see ever since Taker and Lesnar locked eyes at a MMA event.

Regarding Taker’s health, only one guy knows how much damage he can take at the end of the day: Taker himself. Everyone thought there was a good chance he’d miss out this year…they definitely didn’t expect him to show up for a house show. Not to mention that in his “near crippled” state, this guy took some nasty chairshots in last years match.

People, especially on this board,doubt Taker’s WM matches year after year…and then he goes on to have one of the most, if not THE most memorable match at the show, regardless of who “got put over” or not.
 
Triple H looks like he should be serving gas in Arkansas while a 3 toothed man called Burt works the till..
 
Well that was a bunch of crap.

HHH gets to stroek his ego. Just when he does good things to make me respect him he pulls this sh** so I can dislike him some more.

Somebody answer this: is it a rule that every old part timer from the Attitude Era has to shave his head now?

HHH looks odd with the Bobby Roode doo. A style change was in order so he didn't look like a retro act but I think he cut it too short. Guess I'm not used to it (like with Edge).

Why do people take it so personally. If I was in Trips position I'd do the same thing. Most fans eat it up and want to see these guys beat the crap out of each other. No matter who wins it doesn't even matter. It holds no ramifications cause they'll pretty much be gone until SS or next WM.
 
Dang, Ryback is getting hardly any reception from the audience.
 
Ryberg....Oh joy. :dry:


Miz....Del Rio and Swagger all in the ring at the same time...On the mic. .....Great...

Thank God for the mute button.

Hogan at least earned his delusion. :funny:

Bret might be a mark but he'd never pull the ego stroking kiddie sh** of wanting his win back like this.
 
Just to out perform Brock Lesnar's bleeding, Dolph will decapitate himself during this match to sell a move.

... I can easily see that happening.

This is where a guy like Nash would say it's a work and thus doesn't matter, wins and losses only count in the here and now, when it's over it's the body of work, not the results that matter, it's just a waste to use Lesnar's limited dates on either Taker or Triple H.

I don't thionk there's any way to gauge this but no one has suggested Rollins ever. Punk and Sheamus are the guys most have mentioned and it would do a lot more for them to stop Lesnar while he's still looking unstoppable than them getting sloppy 3rds after two guys who wrestle once a year have already beaten him.

People, especially on this board,doubt Taker’s WM matches year after year…and then he goes on to have one of the most, if not THE most memorable match at the show, regardless of who “got put over” or not.

I don't think anyone thought the matches with HBK would be anything but quality, I along with many thought the Mania 27 match with H was garbage, last years had a good story told through HBK's eyes, as a match most conclude that it doesn't hold up.

And there's really no point of Taker beating Lesnar. If all Brock's going to do is wrestle part-timers who aren't going to be around to help the company make money all year, then it's a waste of what he can do. And really, why does Taker need to say he beat Lesnar when he already has a "who's who" of wrestlers in the streak?

I know no one's interested in a Rollins/Lesnar match. I used Rollins as an example of taking a new star, building him up and making him the man that finally beats Lesnar. You could apply any star with potential to that formula.

Regarding Taker’s health, only one guy knows how much damage he can take at the end of the day: Taker himself.

No one doubts that Taker gives everything that he has each time in the ring, only that in the last couple of years it's getting obvious he's becoming limited. And what's really been helping is that his last few matches have been involved being in the ring with a great worker or a gimmick match.

It'll be the same thing when he faces CM Punk.
 
The Helmsley-Brosnar match is going to be my dump break during Mania. And even then that won't stink as bad as this.

That's the very reason, we barely see Brock, when we do we'd like to see him do something fresh and interesting, not wasting his time on an ego driven *****ebag who abuses his power.
 
There goes my interest in wrestling tonight.
 
Roidback, go and get a piss test you sack of trash.
