Quick wrestling question. Rock/Cena Wrestlemania. Any ideas on who comes out here and I'm asking seriously. If The Rock wins, who cares? He won't be on television and won't do anything to further the WWE. If Cena wins do the haters come out in bigger force? Thoughts/Ideas? Conversation
I honestly don't know...which is the reason why it interests me. I think Vince will finally pull the trigger on turning Cena heel, at least in the short term. This match with the Rock may enhance that turn.
He really doesn't need to do it though. Cena will be booed/cheered during the match and The Rock will be probably get a huge ovation, why turn Cena when The Rock is just bailing anyway?Quote:

No. Ridiculous.
Pretty sure The Rock is going to film another movie immediately after Wrestlemania, which means if he loses, who cares, if he wins, who cares. It's a no win situation and the WWE better hope they make bank off the PPV buyratesQuote:

A lot of sites are reporting the Miz has taken a lot of heat backstage over this botched move by not catching R Truth in a match on Raw. It kind of looks like Miz stepped out of the way at the last second. Or maybe his timing was off. I would hope Miz wouldn't do something like this on purpose.
I would think anyone that did anything like that on purpose would be out of the industry real quick. Though Truth didn't look lined up very well either if Miz was supposed to catch him.Quote:

If you missed Raw last night you missed some of the funniest shit in a long time
so triple h tells hbk last night that he wont accept undertaker's challenge because he doesnt want to be the one to "end the old school era". so who's taker gonna face now?
Due to injury, Randy Orton was pulled from the World Heavyweight Title Elimination Chamber match at this Sunday's pay-per-view. Santino Marella will now replace Orton after winning a battle royal at tonight's SmackDown taping in Fresno, CA.

East Rutherford, N.J.’s MetLife Stadium has played host to the NFL Playoffs, two NCAA college tournaments, five international team soccer games, and historic concerts from the likes of U2, The Eagles and Bon Jovi. And now, it’s getting its first WrestleMania.
For the first time, The Show of Shows is headed to New Jersey's MetLife Stadium, home to the New York Jets and the Super Bowl XLVI Champion New York Giants, will host WrestleMania XXIX on Sunday, April 7, 2013.
The traditional WrestleMania Week activities, including WrestleMania Axxess, the 2013 WWE Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, and Monday Night Raw will take place across the New York/New Jersey area in the days leading up to the show.
An official press conference will be held tomorrow, Feb. 16, at 11:00 a.m. at MetLife Stadium, where WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon will be joined by New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, New York Giants President & CEO John Mara, New York Jets Owner & CEO Woody Johnson, NYC & Company CEO George Fertitta and a host of WWE Superstars, including John Cena, Triple H and Sheamus to officially announce the event. There will also be a special appearance by John Cena’s WrestleMania XXVIII opponent, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The press conference is not open to the public, but WWE.com will be posting video and photo updates about the event throughout the day.
:confused: Isn't it still cold in NY/NJ in early April?

I think being jealous of Cena might be more painful than being jealous of Ryder.Quote:

so taker finally gets his wish as he successfully baited triple h into a match at wrestlemania.....on one condition. HELL IN A CELL!
unfortunately, since i've always been an undertaker fan, i think it means the streak will end and he'll retirie. :(
WWE heavyweight champion CM Punk is lashing back at Chris Brown ... claiming the singer isn't just a liar ... but a total "coward" who never truly "paid" for what he did to Rihanna.
Punk released a video statement moments ago ... in response to Brown's allegations that he's a steroid-abuser with an inadequate penis.
In his video, Punk starts out by saying he's " a proud life long drug free straight edge individual" ... and then spends the next minute BLASTING Brown.
"Chris and I come from different worlds. I don't have an assistant. I don't have a body guard. I don't have a manager or a PR person telling me to delete tweets like Chris does, and I don't hit women. Period."
He adds, "[Chris] has made the wrong accusations to the wrong person because I can defend myself."
Punk then challenges Brown to a no-holds barred fight for charity ... and says, "I will choke you out and I will make you feel as weak and as powerless and scared and alone as any woman who has the misfortune of knowing a sad cowardly little boy such as yourself."
Your move, Chris.

Honestly, why would ANYONE call out Punk? That seems like a stupid move.

* 2 Reasons
* KRS to KPB
* Innovator-Camo
* Call out
Some think that the notes on the wrist were a work. Who knows. I love where this is going though.
Overall there are a lot of good builds to Wrestlemania between Rock/Cena, Y2J/Punk, D-Bryan/Sheamus they're actually doing something with tag teams, Big Show/Cody.
I hope that Ryder comes back and has a match with Kane, but my guess is they'll both be in MITB. I just would love to see Ryder get his first WM match.
