As of this moment in time, Jan. 1, 2003...

[Guest Downhome]

What fueds would you build up to for the show, what matches would you book for the card, and all of that good stuff? It has the potential to be the greatest PPV in the history of Pro. Wrestling, and it also has the potential to give us some of the greatest, and most emotional, matches we have ever seen. It all starts now, what WWE does from this day on will end up making or breaking what could be one hell of a show. So...

 

...what would you set on track to happen for that show, and what matches would you book, if you were in charge?

 

Sincerely,

...Downhome...

[Guest Nevermortal]

Main Event: Brock Lesnar v. Kurt Angle (SD! Title)

- Inevitable.

 

The Rock v. Austin v. HHH (Raw World Title)

- I'd put Rock & Austin back on Raw and do the three way of the biggest wrestlers in the WWE for the last few years. Austin wins because I'm a big Austin mark. HHH goes away for a bit, and we transition to a Rock/Austin feud.

 

Booker T v. Scott Steiner

- Bring up WCW feud, have Booker go over.

 

Chris Jericho v. Shawn Michaels

- Y2J goes over.

 

Edge v. Undertaker

- Edge gets elevated as he ends UT's Wrestlemania streak.

 

That's all I can think of now....Perhaps something where Chris Benoit & Rey Misterio team to beat the Guerreros....

[Guest Brian]

I'd start out with Brock/Angle by having Brock win the rumble, and a Show program where Lesnar gets the win back.

 

I'd start the RAW title program by having Trips just declare himself the man, having taken down all challengers. I'd build up RVD from that monet, having Kane turn on him and oding the number one contender's match at NWO. RVD takes the title.

 

Rock should come back with a little bit of heelishness to him but still as a face. Jericho comes out, they exchange banter, and they work towards the match based on the past. Have Rock win, but pull a double-turn as Rocky plays up his heelishness, his Hollywood ways.

 

Austin comes back and Benoit goes into immediate criticism of him for leaving, emphasizing Benoit's passion for the business and how Austin just walked out on it. Let both guys work the tweener roles because Austin is still a draw but Benoit should go over, if not in the long-run.

 

Booker and GoldDust drop the tag team titles with Booker being pinned, thus GoldDust turns because he cheated and did whatever to keep those tag titles for Booker.

 

Mysterio comes back, cutting off a Knoble segment the night after he wins back the cruiserweight title. Knoble gets his revenge taking out the knee later in the night, and they work an underdog feud forgetting the Alber thing.

 

Regal and Storm take the tag titles leading to a match with the Dudleys.

 

Keep up with the Edge and Guerreros feud by having them cost Edge the Albert match. Build Edge as an underdog without a partner until CHRISTIAN~!!! arrives at Mania to help his brother.

 

If they're moving towards Undertaker/Albert, go ahead and let it bomb.

 

Hogan comes back, confronted by Vince.

 

 

Ten matches, fair card. If they have room, go for the Raven feud but I can't figure anyone out. I will be surprised if Steiner lasts that long.

[Guest geniusMoment]

If the rumors are true about Bisch.

I have bisch vs. McMahon for control of the raw name. I have McMahon win.

In the main event I have Brock vs. Angle. Bischoff comes out near the end and screws Brock, angle retain the title.

McMahon runs out and says Bisch. is gone and should leave, Bisch grabs a mic and tells vince that while vince owns raw, he doesn't own raws timeslot or talent. bisch says raws contract with tnn has been cancelled thanks to a deal he made with network officials while running the show, bisch tells vince not to worry there will still be wrestling tomorrow night, in fact their will be wrestling every monday night. Bisch announces that he and tnn have agreed to bring back a legendary wrestling program, tomorrow night is the rebirth, tomorrow night is Monday Night Nitro. McMahon says thats impossible he owns wcw's rights. A cocky smirk appears on Bischoffs face as he tells vince "Check the contract you signed to face me at wrestlemania, check the fine print vince, in order for you to face me you had to give up something very precious to me, you had to give up my legacy vince. I now own WCW and all of its past history. Angle interrupts and throws the wwe title in the trash, Bishoff says bret was going to do it 6 years ago, but late is better than never and that he has finally killed the wwe. Tune in tomorrow

[Guest geniusMoment]

I forgot the announcers go off headset in disgust, you can hear them throwing down their headsets and a familiar tune begans to play. Its the original Nitro theme.

I realize this might be to vince russo for most of you but I know I would tune in Monday night.

[Guest Vern Gagne]

You might markout but what about everyone else.

 

I also find it unbelievable that Vince wouldn't notice the fine print on a contract.

[Guest geniusMoment]

They always do the fine print gimmick.

This would be used to give the brands 2 different identities. Nitro would debut the next night with the old wcw style rings. A set up without the Titantron, giving the show a different feel. I would have stunning steve austin debut, I feel stone cold is passe. All four McMahons would come down to ringside with front row seats during the nitro main event. Bisch would come out and verbally tear them apart, they hop the guard rail (not black barrier) only to be taken out from the side by a spear. Nitro ends with Bish. angle and goldberg all raising each others arms as a jealous steve austin looks on from the entry way, giving all three the owen hart stare from wrestlemania 10. This would be the last time the McMahons would be on Nitro for a long time, making the 2 brands seem like different companies

[Guest BoboBrazil]

Austin vs Goldberg

Rock vs Hogan rematch

Undertaker vs Benoit

Jericho vs HBK

Lesnar vs Angle

HHH vs Steiner

Mysterio vs Noble vs Eddy vs Nunzio vs Spanky vs Chavo in a TLC for the Cruiserweight title

RVD vs Kanyon

Booker T/Goldust vs Storm/Regal

[Guest geniusMoment]

The contract thing is easy to fix.

They do the classic contract signing where vince is so pissed at bisch that he comes to the ring and they do the bit where they each sign the contract while stareing at each other.

As soon as vince signs the deal he beats the crap out of bisch. As vince is walking towards the back he looks back toward the ring and bisch smirks at him, vince is puzzled. This forshawdows upcoming events.

[Guest Vern Gagne]

No question the WWE would do Vince being stupid not to notice the fine print of a contract. I would prefer something more believable.

[Guest humongous2002]

My Wrestlemania XIX would look like this:

Angle v. Brock(SD Title)

RVD v. HHH (RAW title)

Hogan v. Austin

Rock v. Goldberg(believe it or not these 2 matches might really come true)

Y2J V. HBK or Steiner or

Booker v. Steiner or Bookdust v. Kane/Batista

Los Guerreros v. Rey/Edge

Benoit v. Taker

Bishoff v. Vince

[Guest TheyCallMeMark]

Ok, well, Rumble winner is a tie, double-elimination stupid thing. The final four being Brock, Austin, Jericho and Christian. Jerichrist work together, and by doing that they manage to hold their own against Austin and Brock. Eventually Austin gives Christian the stunner, and eliminates him. At that point Brock comes from behind, picks Austin up and F-5's him out onto the floor. Jericho runs from behind and we get the big DOUBLE ELIMINATION, Lesnar and Jericho.

 

You work your way to Wrestlmania, having Heyman send Big Show out to try to stop Lesnar, who he's afraid will beat Kurt. Lesnar beats the Big Show, even with Team Angle and Heyman interference. Ally Austin with Angle again, because hey that was pretty amusing before. Benoit, being Angle's enemy and all is pissed and stuff, so have Austin face him. Have Rhyno return and spit out some hate for Paul Heyman, displace some blame onto him for ruining ECW which he loved so much, or something. So Heyman sends the guys from Team Angle, and Paul tells Rhyno needs a partner or else he can't have his match. So then have Edge come to Rhyno, and tell him that he took the Spear as a tribute to the Gore, and would love to tag. Heyman is all shocked and worried and shit.

 

For Jericho just have him fued with HBK, with HHH looking on until Mania. Keep his program with Stiener going, or something. Towards the very end, right before Wresltmania, have Stiener beat HHH and get the Big Pretend Belt. so, Stiener v. Jericho. Later on RAW, do a main event interview, Booker T comes outs and calls HHH a sucka, because he managed to lose the belt the RAW before the PPV. HHH challenges Booker to a match to see just who the "sucka" is.

 

Have some Angle where there is an Eric/Stpehanie meeting, wherein Bishoff laughs at her and says now with the likes of Helms and RVD on his side, RAW's high flyers are better than SD's. So then Steph challenges him to an interbrand match, Hurricane/RVD v. Misterio/Tajiri. Lets say Knoble gets really mad at Steph for not including HIM, FORMER CRUISERWIEGHT CHAMPION, Jamie Knoble in the interbrand match. To cool him down she gives him a shot at Kidman.

 

To get Los Guerreros on the card, start building another tag team at RR, let's say Matt and Shannon. They have a little thing cooking there anyway and I don't think it would hurt to push those two. Shannon is a bump machine, and I think Matt could be carried.

 

So we have;

Angle v. Lesnar - Lesnar should go over so a Face wins at WM. Could be an alright little thing.

 

Jericho v. Stiener - Jericho goes over because Stiener could be gone at any moment, and Jericho can get a bunch of heat for winning.

 

HHH v. Booker T - Booker goes over here. HHH could start playing that guy who doesn't know why he can't hack it anymore, sympathetic face.

 

Austin v. Benoit - Lets hope Austin is still good when he comes back. Benoit over to cement another new star.

 

Edge/Rhyno v. Team Angle - Could go either way, Edge/Rhyno, just for the pop they'd get, I think.

 

Hurricane/RVD v. Misterio/Tajiri - Kind of a throwaway match, but should be an interesting plot device for the RAW/SD fued. I'd have Hurricane and RVD win.

 

Knoble/Kidman - Knoble gets the title back. Hell yes.

 

Los Guerros v. Mattitude - Maybe have the Guerreros barely pull out the victory.

 

That card looks fun to me.

[Guest Downhome]

No question the WWE would do Vince being stupid not to notice the fine print of a contract. I would prefer something more believable.

Uh, if they would do the storyline of Vince not realizing that Shane bought WCW and not himself, I wouldn't be suprised at ANYTHING they do.

[Guest Bricks]

Only from the Smackdown side because I haven't paid much attention to what's going on at Raw.

 

WWE Title: Angle vs Brock.

 

Brock wins the Rumble by eliminating Benjamin and Haas, beats Big Show at No Way Out, then beats Angle for the belt.

 

The Rock vs Steve Austin.

 

Austin makes his comeback at the Royal Rumble, but falls short of the win. He goes to Smackdown where Los Guerreros attack him because Eddy's still upset he didn't get a chance to face him. Austin challenges Los Guerreros for the Tag Titles with a mystery partner at No Way Out. The mystery partner turns out to be The Rock. Anyways during the Los Guerreros vs Austin and Rock match, Rock turns on Austin and thus goes heel. Anyways, I'll say Rock wins this match only because he needs a win from Austin and to justify his heel turn.

 

Chris Benoit vs The Undertaker

 

Chris Benoit breaks 'Taker's undefeated streak. This would probably a "Respect Match" in that both would be faces. Maybe 'Taker turns heel a couple weeks after and Benoit beats him again at a rematch at Backlash.

 

Edge vs Big Show

 

Well, they're both upper midcarders so I just paired them up. The match would suck, but Edge would go over.

 

Rey Misterio vs Matt Hardy v1.0

 

Rey gets his revenge on Albert at No Way Out so I don't have to sit through anymore Albert matches. Matt Hardy then says that if Rey had any Mattitude at all, he wouldn't have been on the shelf on the first place. Rey responds with a 619. Matt along with fellow MFer Shannon Moore ambush Rey along the way. Rey can't take it anymore and snaps on Shannon Moore and that just leaves Matt all on his own. However, Matt wins in an upset to continue the feud.

 

WWE Tag Titles: Los Guerreros vs Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin.

 

Well, the tag ranks are pretty thin so why not. I guess you could go with Los Guerreros vs Booker T and Goldust in an "InterPromotional Match" and then run a screwy ending so both teams keep their belts. Anyways, Los Guerreros retain.

The Rock vs. Edge

 

Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho

(With no more mid-card titles, I have no clue what to do with everyone else right now. I wouldn't be able to come up with a final card until March. However, with all the remaining wrestlers, from RAW & Smackdown, that aren't in a match, I would put them in one battle royal.)

[Guest Incandenza]

If they plan on keping the Cruiser title on Eddy long enough, I think Eddy/rey would be just fine for Wrestlemania.

[Guest Choken One]

I'll Go with the Raw side first

 

Triple H and Scott Steiner fight to a No Contest at the Rumble. So Bischoff decides to have a rematch at NWO in a NO Holds Barred falls count anywhere match.

 

Meanwhile, At the Rumble, Smackdown's Brock LesNar overcame the odds and won the rumble. Bischoff is angry that Raw lost the rumble but decides that HE'll make sure that the RAW brand has the BIGGEST Main event in history but says nothing else. That night, HHH and Steiner brawl all over the arena but wind up back in the ring...Steiner pedigrees H3 and starts Taunting...and then Glass Shatters and the so familer ring blares out as the crowd goes holy fucking apeshit...Austin hops the guardrail...Rolls in, Spins Steiner around and Stuns him, gives the finger and HHH pops up they staredown and Austin throws a few rights and hits a stunner...He rolls Triple H onto Steiner. The ref pins H3 as the winner. Bischoff smiles On the titantron and he laughs and casually says this "Triple H, I like to introduce your Challenger for the biggest main event in Wrestlemania history, Stone Cold Steve Austin" H3 does a bugeye shot as we go off the air.

 

Triple H goes into the whole "You're a discgrace this company" angle and Austin uses Triple H for the reason he left in the first place. Bischoff really sells this angle to the big time, massive hype and media over Austin's return.

 

Else where on Raw, Chris Jericho continues to mock the legancy of Shawn, when at NWO out, Shawn teams with Rob Van Dam and face Jericho and Christian in damn good **** match. Jeristian goes over deviously of course. So Shawn after a heartfelt speech about his desire and love for Wrestling declares he is willing to put his Career on the line at Wrestlemania against Jericho, Jericho barges in and Says he is so confident, he'll put HIS career on the line as well.

 

After No Way Out, Rob Van Dam is stuck with no feud until he and Bischoff start getting in on each others nerve, Bischoff threatens to break the rules and TRADE him to Smackdown. RVD says whatever, But the very next week, after on Smackdown, Stephanie opened a Invitional Match for Raw Vs Smackdown, Bischoff choses RVD to be his representive and Smackdown will have Rey Mysterio as their representive. No angle here, just a match between Raw and Smackdown.

 

Booker T and Goldust continue their high until No Way Out, when Booker T screws up and cost Bookdust to lose the tag titles to Storm/Regal. Booker T slowly shows shades of heeldom, they face Storm and Regal in a Tag Title Match.

 

Bischoff decides to Waive the Hardcore ban for ONE NIGHT ONLY to settle all the hatred and dissention between Raven and Tommy Dreamer as Raven declares he will revel his final chapter of his masterpiece.

 

Scott Steiner whom isn't very pleased with losing his title thanks to Austin, Starts a fued against Triple H's new buddy Randy Orton. This becomes one of funnier angles in a while. Steiner vows to break Orton's shoulder permantly.

 

Ric Flair decides that he needs to have the feeling of Wrestlemania running in him ONE LAST TIME! He opens for ANYone in the back to step out and face him...Jeff Hardy strolls out and accepts the challenge. Flair promises to knock some sense into Jeff.

 

Trish after suffering another injury by Victoria, She is given ONE last shot at getting her title back.

for Smackdown!

 

Chris Beniot came miliseconds close off realizing his dream but Angle through deceit held onto his coveted WWE title. Dispite TBS and Team Angle's attempts Brock Lesnar wins the Rumble via elminating Show at the end.

 

Angle, still injured insists he won't be able to defend the title against Beniot in a rematch at NWO but suggests to Stephanie that perhaps Beniot can get another shot at Angle at WMXIX if he can beat Brock in a #1 contendership match. Brock and Beniot agree. Meanwhile Angle is given the night off. Brock and Beniot go in a ****3/4 classic that Brock narrowly wins dispite a Heel turn by Beniot midway through the match.

 

Angle relucantly signs the contract but he and Team Angle(Haas, Benjamin, Show and Newly aqquired Beniot) make sure they get the final word on Brock. A couple weeks of zigzags, Brock is forced in a "Warm Up match" on The last Smackdown before WMXIX against The Big Show. Brock loses when all members completeley destroy his left shoulder. (selling he won't be able to F5 angle with a broken shoulder).

 

Elsewhere, The Rock returned the show after The Rumble and although initally Face, he shows hints of Hollywoodism. The charade continues for a little longer until when he does a Special apperence at No Way Out and completly turns heel. Shortly after that, Edge calls Rock out and calls him a asshole for turning back on the fans, including himself. Rock makes jokes and Edge suggest they battle at WrestleMania! Rock doesn't think Edge is worthy of the Rock at the biggest show on the face of the earth, Rockamania! Edge throws a few insults and Rock attacks and says He is on.

 

The Tag team scene becomes dominated by Eddy and Chavo...they couldn't help but going over as Faces. Paul Heyman decides that He'd want the tag titles on Team Angle. So He Puts Shelton Benjamin and Charie Haas on them.

 

Chris Beniot whom is singled out here, Faces a returning Undertaker, whom is defending his undefeated streak. Beniot insists that undertaker will tap out.

 

In a Cruiserweight Battle, Stephanie whom suddenly LOVES Billy Kidman decides she wants him to get HUGE exposure at WM and books a 4 way dance for the title, between Kidman, Tagiri, Knoble and Matt Hardy.

 

Matt Hardy initally refuses to go to WMXIX and wrestle a CW match and offers to have Shannon gleefully take his place but after Stephanie strokes his ego, Matt demands to be in the match.

Brock vs Angle©

-Angle wins, continuning their feud for 2 more months

 

Triple-Juice vs Booker T

-Booker T gets in a feud with Triple-Juice after Triple-Juice goes on a rampage and helps Storm Regal with the Tag-Titles. Thus setting up this feud, after Triple-Juice injuries Goldust the following week.

 

RVD vs HBK

-Just plain old out of respect feud

 

SCSA vs Benoit

-Feud continued before SCSA left

 

Storm/Regals vs Dudleys

-Well, just a tag match

 

Chavo/Eddy vs Team Angle

-Feud is set up after Heyman says take NO prisoners on Smackdown

[Guest Sharpshooterhig]

Okay a few assumptions here first of all:

 

1. Steve Austin returns and signs for smackdown

 

2. Rock returns and moves to raw

 

3. Rhyno returns and signs for smackdown

 

4. Scott Steiner gets fired/leaves after jobbing to Triple H.

 

5. Brock Lesnar wins the royal rumble.

 

6. Goldberg signs and is brought to raw by Eric Bischoff.

 

On heat: Rikishi Vs Matt Hardy

 

In my opinion there should be 5 matches from each show on the main wrestlmania card. The raw side should feature:

 

World title: Triple H Vs Rob Van Dam

-With lesnar winning the rumble, bischoff sets up RVD Vs Shawn Michaels at No Way Out in order to determine the number 1 contender for the world title. This will anger Chris Jericho, who will ask why a has-been like HBK should be a contender for the world title. Jericho should interfere during the course of the RVD Vs HBK match, but should NOT be the direct cause of HBK losing. Jericho should interfere in the middle of the match. RVD should beat up Jericho for interfering because he wants to win the match the right way. RVD should beat HBK with the frog splash and shake hands with HBK after the match in a show of respect. At wrestlemania RVD should beat Triple H clean (it'll never happen but I can dream can't I?).

 

Shawn Michaels Vs Chris Jericho

-Jericho should taunt HBK in the wake of his loss to RVD, again emphasizing how Shawn is washed up and isn't the wrestler he used to be. Shawn then challenges Jericho to a match at wrestlemania so he can prove that his worth on the biggest stage in wrestling. Jericho can laugh this off at first, but then realize that defeating a legend like HBK at wrestlemania would immortalize him. Have Jericho promise to break Shawn in half with the walls of jericho. Put over the walls strong in the lead up to wrestlemania (crazy idea I know) and at the show itself have Shawn tap out. Jericho could then be lined up as the first challenger to RVD as a result.

 

Rock Vs Goldberg

-Rock should return to wwe as a heel and leave smackdown to go to raw, noting that Eric Bischoff has better contacts in hollywood than Stephanie and that Bischoff promised him a huge star not currently in wwe as an opponent for wrestlemania. Rock needs to go all out as a heel and accuse the fans of being jealous and turning on him just because he's doing whats best for himself. Bischoff then announces Goldberg as Rocks opponent for wrestlemania. Do the contract signing for the match live on raw and have them cut promos on each other (goldberg doesn't really have to say much more than 'you're next', the rock can sell the match perfectly well on his own). At wrestlemania Rock cheats to win, setting up a rematch at backlash.

 

World tag-team titles: Booker T/Goldust Vs Dudley Boyz

-Pretty simple really: Booker/Goldust keep the titles until wrestlemania going over every team available on raw with the exception of the Dudley Boyz. The Dudleys need to cut some promos emphasizing that they got back together so they could prove that they are still the best tag team in the world and the greatest in history. They should state its nothing personal with Booker/Goldust, but they have what they want and the Dudleyz have to go through them to get their belts back. Booker/Goldust can respond by talking about it took them a long time to win the belts and they're not going to give them up without a fight. At wrestlemania, booker/goldust retain, but give the dudleys a rematch at backlash

 

Kane/Test/Bradshaw/Hurricane Vs Batista/Randy Orton/Lance Storm/William Regal

-Token 8 man tag in order to allow these guys on the show.

 

Smackdown matches

 

WWE title: Kurt Angle Vs Brock Lesnar

-Lesnar wins the royal rumble guaranteeing himself a wwe title match at wrestlemania. Angle needs to use team angle in order to keep lesnar away from him until then. Have Shelton Benjamin challenge Lesnar to a match at no way out. That match should feature a lot of mat wrestling in order to prepare the fans for Angle Vs Lesnar. Brock wins the match but gets a massive beatdown from team angle afterwards. At wrestlemania lesnar goes over clean.

 

Edge Vs Shelton Benjamin

-In order to give Angle something to do until wrestlemania, book him in a title defense against Edge at no way out (play up their past history against each other, how Edge has dreamed of being wwe champion his whole life etc.). Angle wins the match clean in order to keep him strong for the match against lesnar. Edge is naturally annoyed about losing and allies himself with Brock leading up to wrestlemania. Angle, irritated by this, sends benjamin and haas after Edge, setting up Edge Vs Benjamin at wrestlemania. At wrestlemania, Benjamin wins due to outside interference by haas.

 

Steve Austin Vs Chris Benoit

-Austin returns to wwe and signs for smackdown, stating that he wants to pick up where he left off and fight Eddie Guerrero. Eddie responds by stating he's a tag team champion now and offers Austin a match against him and Chavo for the tag belts. Austin says he doesn't have want or need a partner and will fight them both on his own. At this point Stephanie McMahon interrupts and tells Austin that he does need a tag team partner and assigns Chris Benoit to be his partner and states that the match will take place at no way out. Austin, remembering that Benoit and he had issues before he left isn't too happy and naturally neither is Benoit. At no way out Austin and Benoit have a series of miscommunications and lose the match. Afterwards they brawl and continue to feud on smackdown leading to a match at wrestlemania.

 

Los Guerreros Vs Rey Mysterio Jr/Billy Kidman (ladder match)

-After his return from injury, Rey states his desire to prove he is the best cruiserweight in the world and challenges Billy Kidman to a match at no way out. Kidman accepts and they have a hard fought match with Kidman retaining his belt by the skin of his teeth. On the next smackdown Rey congratulates Kidman and offers to watch his back in Kidman's match that night with Chavo Guerrero. Kidman agrees. That night Kidman loses the cruiserweight title after Eddie lays out Rey and distracts the referee so that Chavo can use the belt to nail Kidman and win the cruiserweight title. Rey and Kidman aren't too happy about this and agree to team up to challenge the guerreros for the tag team titles at wrestlemania. In order to give the smackdown side of the card a boost, Stephanie McMahon makes the match a ladder match. At wrestlemania, Rey/Kidman win the belts, ending the guerreros 4 month reign.

 

Undertaker Vs Rhyno (no holds barred)

-Upon his return to wwe, Rhyno signs for smackdown and declares his intent to gore his way through the smackdown roster. Rhyno defeats everyone he faces (feed him guys like Chuck Palumbo, Crash, Mark Henry etc.) but becomes frustrated and decides to go to the top of the ladder and challenge the Undertaker to a match at wrestlemania and states that he will end the Undertaker's winning streak at wrestlemania. Undertaker can respond saying that he's beaten every monster he's fought in his career and Rhyno will be no different. On a smackdown building up to wrestlemania, Rhyno attacks the Undertaker and destroys him, leaving the Undertaker a bloody mess. On the next show in a pretaped promo, the Undertaker ups the ante at wrestlemania making the match against Rhyno a no hold barred match. At wrestlemania, Rhyno destroys the Undertaker, ending his wrestlemania winning streak.

[JN News 0]

Lesnar vs. Angle for the WWF Title (WWE my ass)-Lesnar wins the title, despite Team Angle interference.

 

Triple H vs. Scott Steiner for the World Heavyweight Title inside Hell In A Cell-Steiner wins the title when Stephanie comes to the ringside area and basicly pulls another Montreal Screwjob when Steiner gets HHH in the Recliener. Steiner & Stephanie celebrate and then appear the next night on RAW where Steph says she stepped down as Smackdown GM in order to become Steiner's newest freak. Meanwhile, on SD, Shane McMahon returns as the NEW GM of Smackdown.

 

The Rock vs. Goldberg-The Rock wins by cheating. This would be a RAW vs. Smackdown match.

 

Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Hulk Hogan-Hogan wins clean and announces his retirement. BTW, Austin stays with RAW and Hogan gets traded to RAW in exchange for Kane.

 

Undertaker & Kane vs. Eddie & Chavo-Kane gets traded to SD, but, he and Taker lose when Eddie pins Taker, finally ending Takers WM win streak, resulting in a feud between the two to elevate Eddie.

 

Edge & Christian vs. Storm & Regal for the World Tag Team Titles-Edge also gets traded to RAW in exchange for Kane. E&C win the titles when Edge pins Regal.

 

Jericho vs. HBK-HBK wins after a five-star match with Y2J.

 

Rey Mysterio vs. Billy Kidman for the Cruiserweight Title-Mysterio wins!

 

Matt Hardy vs. Jeff Hardy-Mattitude wins, and they have rematch at Backlash.

 

Goldust vs. RVD-RVD wins!

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

Angle Number 1: KURT ANGLE © vs. BROCK LESNAR (WWE Title)

 

Have Team Angle be a force to be reckoned with for all except Brock. For Brock they become a wall keeping Brock from getting to their boss. Brock will occaisionally beat them up, they will jump him backstage. I'd have Brock lose the Rumble because of Team Angle interference. Then, I'd have Angle duck Lesnar as long as possibile. Then The night after NWO 2003, have Brock force Angle into a title shot by overcoming impossible odds in a #1 Contenders match. Then, 4 weeks, of Video packages and face-to-face interviews, and such. Brock goes over clean with three F-5's to end WM as it should be: With the good guy getting the duke.

 

Angle Number 2: SCOTT STEINER © vs. ROB VAN DAM (World Title)

 

This pretty much the WrestleMania X-7 scenario: Face/Face, mutual respect, deuling crowd pops. RVD wins and turns heel by allying himself Eric Bischoff.

 

Angle Number 3: STEVE AUSTIN vs. CHRIS BENOIT

 

The single best way to Benoit over as the next ME is to book him to beat SCSA clean.

 

Angle Number 4: TRIPLE H vs. THE ROCK (Hell in a Cell)

 

End this feud once and for all.

 

 

Those matches will sell the tickets, and you can do anything with the under card. Elevate Rey Rey or mattitude, put over Jericho or Booker. Whatever.

I've heard some bad matches but Steiner/RVD for the world title. Please.

[Guest Brian]

Brock vs. Angle is a given.

 

They should push RVD vs. HHH. I know they wants Steiner but who knows how long his novelty act or his body will hold up.

 

If Austin's on SmackDown a properly promoted Benoit match would work perfectly for him.

 

Because of the Austin move, Rock ends up on RAW. Jericho would be a good opponent, built in story, past history, and a chance to pull a double turn and restore Jericho's cred. I'm not sure if HBK will be around or not.

 

If they ever want to push the division they need to get the title back on Knoble, build him and Nunzio up with Nidia taking a liking to Nunzio, and a challenger. Mysterio. And after Knoble loses, Nidia turns on him and you can run Noble vs. Nunzio and Nidia as a feud parralel to the title.

 

Hogan vs. Vince. Right time, right place, a final hurray for Hogan.
