Guest rawmvp Report post Posted January 13, 2004 The PPV is Backlash, a RAW exclusive PPV extravaganza. You know what this means, right? Yep, Chris Benoit will win the Royal Rumble, move to RAW to challenge HHH for the World Heavyweight Title at WM XX, lose to HHH at the biggest PPV of all time via screwjob, get a rematch with HHH at Backlash, and finally capture the elusive World Heavyweight Championship in his hometown of Edmonton, Alberta!!!! You may think this is anticlimactic, but you really can't go wrong with winning the most prestigious title in your freakin hometown! Makes sense to me.

Yep, Chris Benoit will win the Royal Rumble, move to RAW to challenge HHH for the World Heavyweight Title at WM XX, lose to HHH at the biggest PPV of all time via screwjob, get a rematch with HHH at Backlash, and lose and not capture the elusive World Heavyweight Championship in his hometown of Edmonton, Alberta!!!! You may think this is anticlimactic, but you really can't go wrong with not capturing the most prestigious title in your freakin hometown! Makes sense to me. Edited for WWE company line.

Guest rawmvp Report post Posted January 13, 2004 Yeah, these days WWE wrestlers are always embarassed in their hometowns. I mean, even Vince McMahon's right-hand man has been incessantly humiliated in Oklahoma. If J.R. is spat upon the way he is in his hometown, imagine what WWE is gonna do to Chris Benoit, a WCW progeny. In all seriousness, I could see Bret Hart refereeing the rematch between HHH and Benoit in Edmonton. It makes perfect sense -- Bret Hart gives a teary-eyed speech at WM XX and is later perturbed upon discovering that his Canadian comrade, Chris Benoit, was SCREWED by Vince McMahon out of winning the World Championship. Why does Vince McMahon involve himself in the title match? Because he's seen "enough disgusting Canadian splendor for one night...and Bret Hart's remergence has reminded him of how he loves to screw Canadians..." Enter Sheriff Austin, who says that at Backlash, he will allocate the one man -- besides himself -- who strikes fear in Vince McMahon's heart, ensuring that there would be no interference this time. "So, at Backlash, it will be Chris Benoit challenging HHH for the World Heavyweight Title with Bret "The Hitman" Hart as special guest referee/enforcer." Money in the bank.

I DO NOT want to see HHH go over at Wrestlemania again. I've had enough of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thuganomics 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2004 I thought Benoit's winning the rumble was kind of obvious, as Lesnar & Heyman's "you'll never get another title shot ever, Benoit" set up is the exact same set up Angle & Heyman used on Lesnar the year before. My guess is that Heyman will still refuse Benoit's title shot, leading to him taking on HHH. That way HHH gets to main event WMXX. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdwardKnoxII 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2004 I've said it once and I'll say it again. If they have Benoit win the rumble and go to RAW it's going to make him look like a coward and Heyman and Brock will win. And it would make no sense seeing the build up they have been doing for Benoit the past few weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JN News 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2004 Well, it was a good life... RRR's Interest in Pro Wrestling: 1989-2004 I think that picture is very symbolic of what will happen to Chris Benoit & his career after Wrestlemania after he jobs to HHH, because based on the predictions of RAWMVP, it looks like we all now know the outcome of this year's main event. This is sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
