Guest TheSmarkzone Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 RVD vs. The Undertaker They could FINALLY give RVD that decisive win over Taker that they have been teasing since last year, and put the strap on arguably the most over and athletically-gifted babyface on the roster. Brock Lesnar vs. The Rock Rock needs to go film another movie, and let's face it...as big as Brock's push has been thus far, a win over The Rock would shoot his career into the stratosphere. I'm gonna play fantasy booker here for a sec. Post-match, Brock annihilates The Rock and injures him so badly that he isn't seen for months. In his absence, Brock absolutely dominates the WWE as the undisputed champion. The Rock comes back in January for the Royal Rumble, wins it, and then main events WrestleMania X-9 with Brock. HHH vs. The Rock vs. Brock Lesnar vs. The Undertaker Fatal fourway?
Guest CanadianChick Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I would go with any of those matches over Undertaker and Brock.
Guest Fook_Hing_Ho Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 RVD and Taker. They've been building it for a couple months now, and with each match the fans want RVD to win that much more, and he keeps coming closer and closer. The match at SS could finally put him over the top. As for Brock, let him have the IC belt, build him up, and let him actually develop as a wrestler instead of rocketing him to the ME while he's still green as hell.
Guest Trivia247 Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 As for Brock, let him have the IC belt, build him up, and let him actually develop as a wrestler instead of rocketing him to the ME while he's still green as hell. Problem with that is that you would have to give Brock the IC title but LOSE the World title shot contension to RVD who holds the IC title. Its too big of a Paradox. If RVD beats Lesnar for it then He would still have to be IC champion, which Brock couldn't win if he loses the contendership to RVD. RVD would have to lose the title to someone else before the PPV, with maybe a run in by Brock. Then That feuls a big match for the Contendership at a Later date between RVD and Brock.... freeing up the IC title for someone else to run with it. If Brock loses then he goes after who ever won the IC title like a consolation prize.
Guest claydude14 Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 i'd go with RVD-taker, but i have a feeling it'll be rock-brock
Guest eiker_ir Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 RVD and Taker. They've been building it for a couple months now, and with each match the fans want RVD to win that much more, and he keeps coming closer and closer. The match at SS could finally put him over the top. Agree, this is what should happen bye
Guest TheSmarkzone Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I think that the current Brock push makes the WWE look like a bunch of liars and hypocrites. How many times have we heard their line of bullshit about paying dues and getting over with the fans? Let's face it...they can take any wrestler that they want and turn him into a huge superstar as long as he has a look and some ability. Yes, there are some exceptions to the rule. I doubt that Albert, Spike Dudley, Al Snow, or Scotty 2 Hotty will ever be main eventers, no matter how hard they are pushed by the WWE marketing machine. But what about the Chris Jerichos and RVDs? The truth is this: they can push who they want, when they want, as hard as they want. They have the power of the book.
Guest BoboBrazil Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I would have Angle win the belt next Smackdown and then have it be Angle vs Brock at Summerslam, with Angle going over, but elevating Brock to main event status by having a good even match. It could go 30-45 minutes and they could make it look like it is taking both of them to their limits.
Guest Fook_Hing_Ho Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 The problem with that is one of them would have to turn face because heel vs heel does not draw.
Guest BoboBrazil Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 Lesnar has already started his face turn, by telling Paul Heyman to shut up on Raw. They will probably be split by the next ppv at the latest, with Lesnar going face.
Guest chirs3 Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 Well, if Taker turns face like he's teasing and remains champ, kiss RVD's shot goodbye. Taker'll get Lesnar. If Taker runs a program with Angle and loses the belt, RVD will get the shot at SS, but I dunno if he'll win it. I'd hope Taker scraps the Face turn and keeps it til SS for Rob *pointy* Van *pointy* Dam *pointy*.
Guest cabbageboy Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I actually think that the SS main is up in the air. The WWE has no idea what to do. I've heard Angle might get the title, I've heard Rock, I've heard Lesnar. I'm betting they end up having to do a 4 way of some sort with Rock/Angle/RVD/Lesnar or something. I mean, who else is RVD going to fight? Let's face it, a blowoff against UT is meaningless without the title involved.
Guest TestKick Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 i'd make a main event of RVD/Test/Cena/Maven, and during the match they would all shake hands and create the new cliq called the New Oligarchy of Wrestling and they would dominate and lead WWE into the 22nd century
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 RVD and Taker is so obvious as the choice for what should main event SS...that it has 0 chance of happening.
Guest One Bad Apple Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 Lesnar has already started his face turn, by telling Paul Heyman to shut up on Raw. I think that was just a way to let him speak. They will probably be split by the next ppv at the latest, with Lesnar going face. "Probably"?! That doesn't seem a little bit sudden to you? Maybe you're reading too far into this.
Guest papacita Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I was hoping Taker and RVD, but now it looks like Brock Vs Rock is set in stone, so...eh.
Guest midnight_burn Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I'd prefer RVD v Taker, but that almost certainly isn't happening. If Brock has to be in the main event, Kurt Angle v Brock Lesnar i wouldn't mind too much. It just better not be Taker v Lesnar for the title.
Guest What?! Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I want Angle vs Rock. Those are my fave two, and since they're both going away soon, why not just for me.
Guest Austin3164life Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 RVD vs. Taker is the most logical and obvious main event they could have, but we're all forgetting one thing. WWE = Logic gets thrown out of the window......
Guest endgame722 Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 Kurt Angle vs. Brock Lesnar is the best choice for SS Main Event. Kurt Angle showed on Smackdown that he can get a good match out of anyone and a win in the SS Main Event would be huge for his career. RVD vs. Taker would be better as a non-title match in my opinion. Taker is quickly passing HHH as the most boring champion in WWF history so hopefully Kurt will squash him on Smackdown. As for RVD, I think a couple wins over guys like Taker and Nash before he wins the title would help the fans accept him when he does win it. He still doesn't quite seem ready yet in my opinion.
Guest cabbageboy Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I love that RVD/Austin conversation. I think the WWE will get cold feet on this Brock thing and won't have him main SS in a 1 on 1 match. For one, he can't remotely carry his end of a PPV main event yet. Second, he won't draw a dime. That's why I think they'll eventually do a 4 way or some other type of cluster.
Guest Austin3164life Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 I think RVD has been ready (over wise) since his feud with Austin over leadership of the Alliance. There was great chemistry between the two (Austin & RVD) and RVD was becoming humongously over. I think RVD is ready because he's less sloppy in the ring and has been largely popular for 10 months or so (in the WWE)......
Guest cabbageboy Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 The really funny thing about the RVD/Austin pseudo feud is that RVD really had no intention of taking over the Alliance. Austin took his ball and went home after losing to Angle (oh the irony) and RVD was forced to lead the motley crew of jobbers. Then Austin gets back and thinks RVD is usurping him. RVD/Austin is one of the best examples of a "What If?" feud. Hell, if the WWE had played their cards right the main for SS SHOULD be RVD/Austin for the title and control of the Alliance. RVD could win control and turn WCW/ECW face, thus eventually getting them a TV show. Ah well, I am rambling. Rock and Lesnar, main event. SS. Write it down.
Guest Prince Paul Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 RVD vs Taker should be the ME, with RVD going over of course, thus completing the Summer of RVD. THis decision makes the most sense from a storyline perspective,which means, we won't see it. Lesnar vs Angle could be really, REALLY good if they let Lesnar, ya know, actually wrestle. I'm afraid we'll get Brock vs Rock.
Guest AM The Kid Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 RVD vs. Taker...needs proper buildup though.
Guest endgame722 Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 Even the summer of RVD isn't worth keeping the title on Taker for another 2 months. As for Brock vs. Rock, its a no win situation. If Rock wins it means nothing cause he beat an unover rookie. If Brock wins we're gonna see possibly the worst title reign in WWF history. By giving Brock the summerslam title shot the WWF fucked themselves leaving Brock vs. Angle as their only reasonable choice.
Guest cabbageboy Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 Not if they job Brock out of the contender slot at Vengeance to RVD though! :-D
Guest ZGangsta Posted June 29, 2002 Report Posted June 29, 2002 Someone else noted one of the main problems here. In order to get RVD to win the title, you have to get the IC belt off of him. Putting it on Lesner would work if you're going to take his World title shot away. But how do you accomplish that? If you job Lesner to RVD at Vengance (it would HAVE to be completely clean because RVD would need the rub to be in a postition to ME SS for the title), you would have to get the IC onto Lesner after that. And RVD losing to Lesner after beating him would completely defeat the purpose, and make RVD look weak. Of course we're all thinking out logical solutions and this is the WWE, so expect HHH vs Lesner at SS in a Roid-Needle-on-a-Pole match. I'll bet they'll go through at least eight hot-shoted title feuds for the SS ME before the event.
