Anakin Flair 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2003 Don't know if this has been posted yet... The latest on the most anticipated wrestling show... Here is the latest on WrestleMania XX: - The plan right now is to have Mick Foley & The Rock team against two members of Evolution at WrestleMania XX. - Triple H will not be one of the two members of Evolution, as WWE wants him in a high profile singles match (but not against Mick Foley). - The feeling right now is that Steve Austin will not work WMXX. He may instead work some type of gimmick match involving Eric Bischoff. - No members of the McMahon family are being penciled in for a match at this point. - Edge is expected to be medically cleared for WMXX but WWE seems to be favoring the idea of bringing him back the week after WMXX. It should be noted, however, that a Triple H vs. Edge WrestleMania XX match has been discussed. - When The Rock agreed to job to Goldberg last year, the agreement was that Goldberg would return the job at WMXX. At this point, if Goldberg works WMXX, it will likely be his final match with WWE. It will be interesting to see if he agrees to job to the Rock, and if WWE will break up the scheduled Rock/Foley vs. Evolution match for another Goldberg/Rock match. Credit: Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter With all due respect to Edge...WTF? Trips is a Main-eventer, and Edge is a mid-carder who's been gone for over a year. Why would he be involved in a high-profile match-up like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michrome 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2003 HHH-Edge...AWESOME. Edge was just busting into the Smackdown! ME scene near the end there, and he will be red hot upon return. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DeputyHawk Report post Posted December 28, 2003 If HHH can run programs against Steiner and Nash, he can damn sure have one against Edge. I'd have no problems at all with Edge coming in as a main eventer on Raw, he'd liven the place up a bit if nothing else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest BrokenWings Report post Posted December 28, 2003 I can't picture Edge winning, he'd probably still have ring rust, and there would be a minimal and most likely horrible build up. Yeah, I want Edge to jump over and be squashed by Hunter. Please, keep him on Smackdown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2003 Edge will be on WM no matter what if he is health. I'd like them to keep him away from HHH.

Last thing we need is Triple H calling Edge a loser and then proving it with a clean three in the middle of the ring. If they can pull a Kane on Edge and use the HHH burial to rebuild Edge's character (like bringing back his mute goth guy ass-kicker gimmick) it would be an acceptable trade-off....

Guest PowerPB13 Report post Posted December 28, 2003 - No members of the McMahon family are being penciled in for a match at this point. "At this point" being the key words. At the biggest WrestleMania ever, how can they possibly resist booking the Vince vs. Shane vs. Stephanie vs. Linda Fatal Four-Way? Triple H needs fresh bodies to bury and what better person to bury and humiliate on a regular basis going up to the biggest show of the year than "Mr. Fanboy" Edge? ESPECIALLY since yoiu know HHH will love to kill Edge's career so as to keep Edge from ever eclipsing Randy Orton and Batista, who HHH has christened as his heir apparents to the throne in the WWE... Let's see...HHH, Bautista, and Orton are all complete wastes of perfectly good organic material...so yeah, that would fit. -Patrick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ray Report post Posted December 28, 2003 Edge is a mid-carder who's been gone for over a year. Why would he be involved in a high-profile match-up like that? To establish Edge as a main-eventer, of course. He's one guy who hasn't been tainted by dozens of burials (like Jericho, Booker). I'd say Edge was more than just a mid-carder last year. At the very least, he was one of the highest mid-carders on SD, and could have been headed to the main-event. The way to make him look important upon his return is to put him right into a feud with a main-eventer. If you want to make him a star, that's how you do it. I laugh when people say he should feud with Christian or Hardy when he returns. That would only drag Edge back into the mid-card. If only HHH would put him over...
