Guest Choken One Report post Posted February 7, 2004 Then we're opening the floodgates because you have to include Hogan Bret Steamboat Savage DiBiase Warrior Bret will do it for dirt cheap (or at least to ge the DVD up and running and complete control)...

Use Your Illusion 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2004 Exactly. So no legends works out just fine for me. A video package, however, would be great. UYI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted February 7, 2004 The difference between Bret and Hogan being that Hogan had his send-off WrestleMania moment. And then he fucked up a bunch of times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2004 As the crowd goes APESHIT, with a slight delay, Bret steps out...simply wearing Jeans and the old school H.F Shirt...Jericho holds the ropes for him...Bret soaks it up and Benoit steps down and Bret smiles at the title and they fucking embrace as NYC goes insane...No words, No Speech, Nothing...The ring starts to clear as Benoit takes the belt on places it on Bret's Shoulder and Bret climbs the rope for old times sake but He stops and snaps it around Benoit's waist and Raises Benoit's arm in the air... For a second I was laughing at the idea of this. Now I see why Benoit is challenging for the Raw title, because Bret actually recognizes that belt. Imagine if it was Benoit/Lesnar for the WWE title (which has the Undisputed design) and that Mania finish transpired. Then Benoit hands the title to Bret and Bret has the "WTF" look at the belt. "What the fuck is this? Where's the real title?" Just pointless tangent. Resume with your discussion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted February 7, 2004 But why would he reconizge the Title once known as the NWA/WCW belt? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or Brett Hart can do the Terry Funk role and say he is there to shake Benoit's hand then piledrive him thru a table. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2004 But why would he reconizge the Title once known as the NWA/WCW belt? I don't mean recognizing its prestige. I meant the looks. Bret knows what the WCW title looks like. He doesn't know what the WWE title looks like anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangerous A 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2004 I say leave both of the fucks off the show. WMXX should be the springboard to something new. WWE should quit wallowing in the shit from the old people and move the fuck on. Just because it's WMXX doesn't mean we have to get all nostalgic and shit for old fuckers who are going to do nothing but suck away all the heat from the guys who are going to bring it in the ring that night. WMXX is going to run 5 fucking hours. You don't think Hogan and Hart won't bring the crowd to a high? That's great. That's just what we need. Hart or Hogan showing up right before Angle/Eddy or HHH/Benoit so we can watch a title match in fucking silence. Bottom Line: Leave the old fuckers at home and let WMXX be the dawn of a new era, not overshadowing of current talent that desperately needs to get over.

Guest Choken One Report post Posted February 7, 2004 then we need to get Foley and Shawn off pronto...but the sad thing is this...They are the best parts of the Damn show other then the Canadian Quad (Benoit, Jericho X and Trish) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rendclaw 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2004 It would be good to see Bret, actually. In some ways, that would a nod toward those who helped make the E what it is, while at the same time, closing the book and moving towards the future. What kind of future that is (bleak, I can tell you now), is another topic for another time. EDIT: DA, who watching at home is going to care about the damn crowd? The majority of the matches nowadays have canned heat, so what difference does it really make? As long as those involved in the matches bring their A+ game, or as close to it as their talent allows, and there are *good* matches, I could care less if everyone in those seats fell asleep. The ME matches are going to be relatively quiet anyway, if what I heard is true about WM20 being 5.5 hours in duration. People are going to wrung out like a dishrag by the end of it all.

Guest Choken One Report post Posted February 7, 2004 I figure that Foley is actually playing the role of Randy Savage for this Mania...Old Retired Vet coming back to avenge one last grudge... The paraells are remarkable... If Brock/Benoit went down...it would EASILY be comparable to Bret/Yoko...Canadian Vs Monster Beast. Two World Title matches, one involving a Patriotic guy and other guy who cheats like crazy and the aforemention Canadian/Monster beast match... Likely, There will be a bad rap session from a superstar Cena=Oscar Likely, the opening match will be a match with two canucks (Jericho/X)... All we need is Matt to Play Shawn and RVD to play Razor and A-Train to Play Bam Bam to London's Doink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
