Downhome Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 I saw this topic over at WCMB, and thought I'd start it here just for the heck of it. Do you even think it means anything at all? Perhaps saying that someone is returning from the past, or could it actually mean that they really are planning on starting something new come WM XX. I mean, with it being possible that the big should could end with both Benoit and Eddy being world champs, could this mean that they are actually ready to give some of the guys actual shots, once and for all? You know, a true "new era" in WWE. More than likely not, but what the heck. I figured I'd see what all of you think of that tag, since I haven't really seen it discussed on here yet. Yeah, it's just a marketing ploy to sound cool more than likely with nothing behind it, but it's worth talking about I guess. Sincerely, ...Downhome...
Guest JumpinJackFlash Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 Mr. T return? A time laspe?Wrestlemania 21 in 3 venues? Wrestlemania 22 in the Silverdome with 93,000 people? A title tournament at Wrestlemania 23? Hmmm.....
Downhome Posted February 12, 2004 Author Report Posted February 12, 2004 Mr. T return? Don't you dare get my hopes up!
Markme123 Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 I like it because it reminds me of the old WM subtitles like: Wrestlemania 2: What the World is Coming To WrestleMania III: Bigger, Better, Badder WrestleMania IV: What the World is Watching ect.
razazteca Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 WM20: This time its Vince vs disgruntled employee #4390..........what were you expecting something new?
Steviekick Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 I think the slogan is more about the anniversary WM taking place in Madison Square Garden, where it all began.
Youth N Asia Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Just something they tacked onto Mania cause it's going back to MSG, I wouldn't read into it.
Guest Choken One Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 speaking of which...I'd be a supporter of a Three Venue Mania if they had enough stars to pull it off... WMXX3 will likely be in Detroit at Ford Field..
Youth N Asia Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 I'd go see it if it were at Ford Field...it's a good building
Damaramu Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Maybe it means that Vince is ready to get with the times and move on from his antiquated ideas? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I know I didn't believe it either.....it's just fluff.

Hektik Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Anyone know if 11 had a tagline? Wrestlemania 11: First Time, Last Time, Only Time
Guest Krazy Karter Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Anyone know if 11 had a tagline? Wrestlemania 11: First Time, Last Time, Only Time Thanks
MarvinisaLunatic Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 speaking of which...I'd be a supporter of a Three Venue Mania if they had enough stars to pull it off... WMXX3 will likely be in Detroit at Ford Field.. Three Venue Mania 1 - RAW - Nassau Colliseum 2 - Smackdown - Allstate Areana 3 - The ECW Thing - some random Bingo Hall And will Vince make as big of a deal for WM XXV (25) as he has with this? It won't get the MSG treatment but I would think that the Silver Anniversary show would be bigger than XX.
Guest Krazy Karter Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 It won't get the MSG treatment but I would think that the Silver Anniversary show would be bigger than XX. I'd guess Skydome for XXV.
Guest Coffey Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Maybe Vince is going to retire?
Guest Choken One Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Anyone know if 11 had a tagline? Wrestlemania 11: First Time, Last Time, Only Time First Time: Shawn Vs Nash? Last Time: Bret Vs Backlund? Only Time: Bam Bam Bigelow in Main event with a crack head football player? What exactly did this one mean?
Guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 It was the first time, last time, and only time that LT would wrestle.
Guest Choken One Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Here's another unrelated question (sorta)... Most mania's always have a special Venue 1-MSG 2-Three venues in three biggest towns 3-Silverdome 4/5-Trump Plaza 6-sKYDOME 7-L.A Colieseum (planned) but because of "threats" moved to LA Sports arena 8-RCA Dome 9-Custom Made Ceasar's Palace 10-MSG 11-Hartford Civic Center... Yeah, that one just doesn't fucking fit with those GRAND locations...Did they do that because they LITERALLY couldn't get a worthwhile venue or anything? With L.T being there, NYC seemed natural if not MSG again, Long Island or Jersey would have worked...or did they want to do it in their "back-yard"...
Guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 It was them wanting to do it in their "backyard".
Guest Choken One Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 AKA...Too damn pathetic to get a worthwhile venue to host it.
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 AKA...Too damn pathetic to get a worthwhile venue to host it. Thats the logical answer when you look at what they booked for the show. LT in a SINGLES MATCH Main Event vs. MID CARDER Bam Bam Bigelow?! The Blu Brothers?! King Kong Bundy vs. Undertaker? Bob Backlund vs. Bret Hart in a match that can't touch SSeries 94. A very weak tag Title match on paper. And to top it, off the CELEBRITY GUEST SINGER OF THE NATIONAL ANTHEM......a retard. (shakes head in shame)
Guest wrestlingbs Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Wasn't WM VII moved to a smaller venue because of poor ticket sales... er, I mean a bomb threat against Sgt. Slaughter?
Guest JRE Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 It's almost like, presentation wise, at least....Wrestlemania slumped a bit after 10. Of course, 11 was horrible all around....but 12-16 all had basic arenas as venues. Then 17, 18, and 19 got all cool. Sure, it was probably more about attendence and money and stuff- but I think I'll put the blame on Russo, that bastard not making Wrestlemania look cool....that bastard.
Markme123 Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 I don't know but I liked WM15's metallic entrance. I hope they keep MSG like WM10. Have a small entrance (not like RAW at MSG) and the house lit up (unlike when SD! uses blue lights on the audiance). And I thought WM18's tag was "Icon vs Icon"...
Vern Gagne Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 I'm all for bringing back the mini-carts they used to bring the wrestlers out in.

RavishingRickRudo Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 WrestleMania XVIII: The One And Only Figures, the WM I go to is named after a Billy Gunn move.
humongous2002 Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 It was the first time, last time, and only time that LT would wrestle. ...... without his crack pipe??
Austin3164life Posted February 13, 2004 Report Posted February 13, 2004 Wrestlemania took place in MSG, and kicked off a new era at that time, and perhaps they're going to "begin again" with an all new era at WM XX.....TRIPLE H AND SHAWN MICHAELS RE-CREATE THE ORIGINAL D-X~!
