Thanks for the Fish

HHH winning is a lock. Undertaker winning is a lock. Mayweather winning is a lock HBK winning is a good bet, because Flair is old school and will want to do "the honors." I too am a fan of him winning and then retiring though. I think it's MVP or Punk winning MITB at this stage. As was mentioned MVP vs Undertaker and MVP vs HHH are both intreguing possibilities. The came could be said for Punk, and if the story that they want to push him for the kids, he needs to get off ECW. Of course the draft could accomplish that as well. Jericho, Carlito are extreme longshots. If I ranked them in order it would look like - MVP, Punk, Kennedy, Benjamin, Morrison, Jericho, Carlito. Batista/Umaga will be a no contest finish JBL wins when Hornswoggle returns and costs Finlay the match.fight Melina and Beth better being their workboots, because they'll be carrying Maria and Ashley. It doesn't matter who wins, but I expect Santino to inadvertantly cost the heels the match, and thus Maria and Ashley get the win, with Melina getting pinned. I like the idea of Colin winning because everybody focuses on bigger threats and he is forgotten about. However I don't think they'll go in this direction at Wrestlemania. Kane was a solid choice.

I think Killings can pull off the militant black guy off pretty well. It's when he tried to be a babyface rapper he goes to shit. I believe he has a tongue stud/ring as well, which effects his pronunciation. Also worth pointing out is that Raw doesn't have one active black wrestler on it's roster. Ron Simmons is listed, but he's in rehab right now. Also Drillbit Taylor is now on the Raw Roster in one of those silly promotional gimmicks.

I'd love to see Former Horsemen come out after Flair loses at Mania. First Arn alone, and then all of the rest. I still think Flair should have announced he was retiring either way tonight, and his match with HBK was a tet for himself to see if he still had it. Being forced out by a Mcmahon edict cheapens the angle. It would have made much more sense from the get-go for flair to simply say the next match I lose I am finished, and have the angle start from there.

Vladimir Koslov is back to working house shows with the WWE. He's basically an Emilianenko rip-off... Too bad he doesn't show any aptitude for pro-wrestling.

I read that he Killings was going to be called "Kwik Killings" now that would be horrid. Killings could be a solid upper card guy on Raw because of his mic ability, and is good enough in the ring.

Damian Demento. His youtube vids have been pretty solid and the guy wants back in, so why not. I think Steve Austin coming back fulltime and motivated (i.e. not the caracture he is now when he makes appearances) would have a lot of great feuds waiting for him. Austin vs MVP, Austin vs Finlay, Austin vs Orton, Austin vs Punk, Austin vs Cena, Austin vs Edge. Of course I don't think he is healthy enough.

Where is Mayweather?

Beth might just have some cankles. Ashley should be fired - she's horrid in the ring anyways and the wrestling lifestyle might lead to her addictions. Santino looks rather pudgy.

I wonder how the ratings would be if they gave Flair the mic for the ME time slot. It's to the point where Flair should announce that win or lose WM will be his last match as an active wrestler. That would add certain drama to whether he could go out with the win (even though you know Flair would want to go out on his back).

There is basically three feuds I want to see from HBK before he retires - MVP, Finlay (sans Hornswoggle) and CM Punk. I don't think he'll ever sniff the World Title anymore probably because he doesn't want it.

Flair has no rub to give, HBK just want to give him a helluva last (active wrestler) match.

Maybe he'll pull a Shane McCmahon buying WCW moment and say "A Mr. Hardy was contracted to be in the MITB match, and since Jeff is suspended and it doesn't specify which one..."

So Kendrick and London are going their separate ways - I think that's a good thing. They were buried on Raw after being top dogs on SD!, I think Miz/Morrison vs Kendrick/London would have been a great match. I'm betting one of the two will end up on ECW come the draft. With Kendrick going heel, I think London to ECW would make the most sense. I've always been a big fan of London and Kendrick looked really good lately when London was out with an injury, even if Spanky was jobbing. I think both could be solid midcard players now that the cruiserweight title is dead.

How can Santino stay relevant if he's never anything more than a jobber with a smart mouth? I mean is his wwhole career going to be "Let's see how Santino will get squashed in this feud?" He was an aspiring MMA fighter until signing up for the beginners class in OVW in May 2005. So he's been wrestling less than three years - I can't possibly see why he can't improve in the ring knowing that.

I fail to see how Santino is hopeless in the ring. Who has he wrestled on Raw - He hasn't exactly been in there with ring generals. His underdog fan out of the stands face run was abysmal, but I remember a lot of wrestlers looked terrible upon their debut. I think his comic heel character is detracting from his ring work now as well. I'm not saying he heads to SD to ME - not by any stretch, but I think being competitive and winning midcard matches and being in serious midcard feuds is certainly something he could handle.

That was the best one yet - by far. Hopefully HHH has a sense of humor about himself though. I hope Santino heads over to SD! or ECW in the summer draft, because he needs to be allowed to become a serious wrestler, rather than a comic relief boob.

Whyat if Undertaker vs Cena happened with Undertaker going over to extend his streak? I think the crowd, half expecting Cena to win, would go apeshit. Undertakers Streak vs Cena's Superman booking would really sell the drama. I doubt it will ever happen but having the RR winner to choose to go after Undertakers Streak over a title would be interesting.

Ending Undertaker's WM Streak is probably the closest one could get to Andre "passing the torch" to Hogan. Cena vs UT would be interesting in that you wouldn't know for sure who was going over - would UT keep his streak or would Superman Cena be the one to finally break it. However ending it in Houston might not be a good idea given the likely crowd reax. The storyline would be even better with a heel Cena.

Make it a retirement match to boot - as long as neither or both are rumored to be retiring sorta deal.

First one isn't half bad. I've seen worse. I wouldn't wear it, but then again I'm ashamed to be a wrestling fan and certainly don't want to publicize it.

I think it's about time Kane breaks out his mask - I'm telling you, I think he would gain instant ME legitimacy again. Maybe just wear it out during his ring entrance like Demolition used to.

I love how the females are worth nothing except face/body critique.

They just need to "make the save" more about promoting himself and less about saving Mysterio. However the huge problem in making Show the face and Mayweather the heel is that you have to assume Mayweather is going over at WM. This angle has been butchered from the get-go in all actuality.

I assume MVP will get drafted to Raw this year, so I guess HHH vs MVP wouldn't be a bad feud down the line.

I believe Jeff's drug of choice was Crystal Meth actually.
