ANKLELOCK

Did nobody watch Austin's last match? The whole storyline was predicated on Austin passing the torch. I remember Rock's interview prior to the match. "Finally..." and all that.

Ric Flair has said Trips is his best friend. I know Trips is the devil and we don't want Flair's reputation being soiled by associating with him, but...

Absolutely not. WM XIX was perfect. Not to mention they don't need to have a big retirement match at Mania the year after Flair does it. And Rocky is r-e-t-i-r-e-d. He's not taking a break. He's done.

HHH looks younger cause of the beard, as does HBK. And its not LOL that he came out first, he's probably Flair's best friend. Best man at the wedding and all.

Since HOF had the most non-televised stuff, I'd like to hear more about that.

Your not very perceptive. Did you see the end? He's the ultimate heel. He plays possom outside, hoping to get counted out. His contingency plan is to make Hardy push his dead weight into the ring and as soon as he slides in WHAM. Match over. It's a strategy, not as simple as "he got his ass kicked then won".

Awesome finish to Hardy/Orton. Orton is my new favorite wrestler.

Reminded me of 2004 Batista there with the silent intensity while maintaining the cool.

Regal is God.

I'm canceling dinner reservations for this. seriously

*Exchange shoves* "Old Yeller, huh? Old Yeller?!" *Slap* "You can leave if you want." *Spits blood into hand* "First blood, brother." This exchange was why I love Wrestlemania.

We might need to give you a wellness test, pal, cuz u on some drugs. I believe Rey is still the #2 ratings draw in the fed behind Cena and Hardy is as over with the live crowd as anybody.

Randy Orton may have passed John Cena as the best thing going in wrestling. Cena's entrance was the shit(ie: good). Flair/HBK was perfect. I even liked it being outdoors as opposed an MSG-type. Something seems so fitting about Flair going out looking up at the night sky instead of your standard "looking up at the lights". Great show. Great ambience. Fireworks were great. Worth the money.

Apparently the pyro is going to go as high as 2,000 feet in the air this year. As a point of reference, last years opening pyro went 150 feet high. Holee shittt.

I'd love to see what some of you "it's real to me dammit!" Benoit defenders would say if it was HHH who killed his own family in cold blood. Get ahold of your fucking selves.

Sounds like they were playful, like his at Cena. It sounded like, anyway.

Sounds amazing, more details if you have any.

And I still find it extremely tacky how they play their stupid entrance music at something like the HOF.

The fans outta be ashamed of themselves. It's the fucking hall of fame. Leave the petty, outdated, boo Cena cuz we're kewl bullshit at the door.

The Rock is genuinely excited/touched to be there. That or he's a great actor. Yeah, it has to be genuine.

I'm amazed we're this close given our GODFUCKINGAWFUL point guard play and lack of three-point shooting so far.

I still don't see how Angle/Michaels was that good. The match makes no sense. Michaels, who was NEVER a mat wrestler, dominates an Olympic Champion on the mat for ten minutes, Angle then destroys HBK's back which he promptly no sells as usual, then Angle wins with an anklelock after ZERO work was done on the ankle, as usual. Give me Taker/Bats or Cena/HHH over that one as matces that exceeded expectations.

There is a reason WWE has stopped calling it the ECW World Title. It's just the ECW Title. Chavo was in the Rumble match for a shot at world champion for crying out loud.

It is NOT a world title.

Welcome back.
