Alright we all know there'll be a big bump at hitc

[Guest ManKinnd]

The fans expect a huge bump way too much for the WWF to not do one at Judgment Day. Chances are Jericho will take it, but my question is: Will it be padded ala Foley's at No Way out and Rikishi's at Armageddon or pure like HBKs or Foley's others? What do you think and why?

[Guest]

More then anything, I fear Jericho screwing up a spot and getting himself seriously hurt.

[Guest Austin3164life]

That's what I am afriad of as well.....

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

We know HHH wont be doing one..

Those were kind of obvious.

[Guest]

Fine, I don't think there will be one "Big" bump. I think they will just wrestle a good match. Beat the Hell out of each other. A few Blade jobs and 4 Run-ins. Then, the next day we all will bitch about it.

[Guest Anglesault]

OF COURSE there will be multiple run ins. Especially since the point of the cell is to keep the people out, you KNOW they'll get in. I say HHH fends off Jericho, Vince, The NEW JOB Squad (Holly, Christian, Suck, Storm, D-Von) and possible Angle, while still having time to pose and get the win.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

I think we will see Jericho take a HBK-esque bump to the announce table off the side of the cell, but that's aboot it.

 

I expect the shocks to be in the blood dept.  Both men will be gushin like an oil well.

[Guest]

I still believe this match will resemble the HBK-Taker bout more than any of the others. Expect both Jericho and HHH to hit a minimum of 0.6 Muta each.

[Guest]

I think the biggest bump will be the glass ceiling...shattering.

 

HA! Like that will ever happen. Anyways i think its gonna be small high impact bumps...dont need no big bumps to be good.

 

Also, theres a Muta scale for blood...im thinkiing we need more scales! Like:

 

The Kevin Nash Hair Scale- "Yeah Edge is 0.7 Nash tonight"

On that topic..what happened to triple H's hair? he used to have like 2.0 Nash hair, now its down to 0.4!

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Ok, this has just gotten completely out of hand...

 

Blue Blood Hunter Hearst Helmsly had AT BEST 0.9 Nash Hair.  It was NOWHERE near as silky.  It was just good lighting to hide the frizzle.

[Guest El Satanico]

There won't be any major bumps. And if there happens to be one it will just be the lame and ultra fake Shane Mcmahon type of bump involving air mats.

 

WWE has too many guys getting hurt every week and too many older guys that could get hurt at any moment to risk injury to a main event caliber guys in a major HIAC bump.

[Guest Anglesault]

So in other words, you think we are in for the same shitty Mania match, just with a cage abstructing our view?

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

i predict the match will blow. i doubt HHH could get to the top of the cage anymore. neither jericho or HHH can take bumps like foley or micheals, so no matter what the spots will be disapponting.

 

and i bet stephanie costs HHH the match. it's just this horrible feeling i'm getting.

[Guest Anglesault]

Will she knock Hunter out and Physically drag Jericho on top of him like she did in the Kurt/HHH cage match? (She actually physically carried Kurt out of the ring then)

[Guest Risk]

It's pretty obvious we are either gonna bitch about the match, if bad, or say how Jericho carried HHH, if good.  Eh, works for me.

[Guest Human Fly]

Blood, lots of it, that's my prediction. I can see Jericho making a lunge at HHH while he's out of the ring and then Jericho crashing into the cage, but I don't really see a big bump happening in this one.

[Guest El Satanico]

Yeah and now watch HHH do a predigree off the top and shock us all.

 

Which there's no way that Jericho in his right mind would agree to take a move like that. But HHH could pull a political move that Hogan wouldn't even do and get Vince to force Jericho to take it so HHH can rid himself of competition in the future when he'll be the number 1 guy.

 

Ok...now i know i probably sound alittle insane right about now so i'll slowly back away.

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

sprobsly. since that would be really lsme and un vreative, which are the hallmarks of the wwe

[Guest Dangerous A]

If there is a big bump, I highly recommend it be padded. There is nothing wrong with elongating one's career. I think the match will be built more around the blood factor. Both men will probrably down coffee and aspirin like madmen before the bout. Hopefully they let both men go at it and just let the cage help tell the story. For God's sake, if someone runs in it just ruins the concept of locking 2 men up and watching them tear each other apart. This will probrably place second on MOTN. (Kurt and Edge have more on the line)

[Guest Nater]

Running Powerbomb from the top of the cage down through Two Stacked Tables.. that were set on fire by (Returning Wrestler)...

 

thats a little soft though..

 

 

lol pedigree off the top, not only would jerich DIE but HHH would blow both his knees and possibly crush his pelvis with what was once jericho...

[Guest Tha Cunnysmythe]

Blue Blood Hunter Hearst Helmsly had AT BEST 0.9 Nash Hair.  It was NOWHERE near as silky.  It was just good lighting to hide the frizzle.

 

Blasphemous fucker! Hunter's blue blood/DX hair was much better than Nash's hair ever was or will be. Women would kill for that hair. They'd have dragged it out of his scalp by the root just to have it as a weave.

[Guest cabbageboy]

Count me in as one who expects this match to be somewhat disappointing.  For one thing HIAC only works when you have someone psychotic enough to take some insane abuse.  I can't see either Jericho or HHH getting tossed from the top or taking half the stuff that Foley or Michaels did.

And that's part of the problem with Hell in a Cell, as I recall from a thread a couple weeks ago about the match.

 

Starting out the first couple with Foley and HBK set the bar artificially high, and so now the Boss Man hell in a cell looks lame and shitty by comparision (and only part of that is due to the fact that, well, it was the big boss man and the undertaker).  It's gone beyond regular cage matches, there's this near-death expectation to it now, such that a double blade job -- while plenty good enough for me -- isn't going to be enough for many fans because it doesn't go near where the envelope has already been pushed to.  There is a real element of expecting things to be done "bigger better faster more than before" in American culture and particularly in "extreme" wrestling.

 

I couldn't enjoy that last hell in a cell from Feb. 2000 because I had gotten to the point where I was sick of watching Foley go way above and beyond the call of duty to maim himself for my supposed amusement.  I don't want any wrestlers to do crippling suicide spots just to get a cheap pop from fans that will forget the whole thing in a couple of months and say "what's next?  do it bigger better more now."  

 

I hope that pressure to go with a suicidal bump is tempered in this match, and hopefully all those old comparisons the net community used to make with Jericho, calling him the next Shawn Michaels, doesn't give somebody the idea of having Jericho ape Michaels' 1997 cell dive.  I don't want to have Jericho's career shortened our outright sacrificed for a moment that won't even be remembered by September.

 

I hope that a double blade job -- which is safe in comparison to the Foleyish dives -- will be enough to satisfy the quota for Hell in a Cell brutality and carnage.  It will be for me.  Will it be for the rest of you?  Will it be for the lemmings?  I don't know.  I hope so.  But if not, screw 'em.

[Guest RickyChosyu]

I think people are underestimating this one. Hunter, despite becoming a bloat mass of suck since his return did participate in the brutal Title Vs. Career HIAC that was pretty close to dethroning the first one as the best ever, and before his injuries, was more than willing to die for our very own viewing pleasure. In the last year before he was injurred, he bumped like a psycho very often. It was nothing like Foley's rediculous display at KOTR '98, but he still knows how to bump big when needed, and I think he's been back long enough to start doing it again. Jericho is more than able to take big bumps and I think he'll thrive in this environment.

 

Also, while the Wrestlemania match was just there, their #1 contender match on Raw a few weeks ago showed me they still have some chemistry left, and I think this match will prove it. I don't expect any bumps on the levle that Foley provided (where it ruined the flow of the match due to him being half-dead anyway) but I think these two can deliver.

[Guest RavishingRickRudo]

Here is my problem with 'safe' bumps.

 

They are too fake, not believable. I can't personally get over the fact that these guys are pussies and decided to land on a giant fuckin cushion.  It takes away from that suspension of disbelief which is so important to a match.  

 

And this is not to say I want guys to kill themselves, far from it.  I would rather have no huge bump than a protected one.

 

I like Blood.

 

DUDE! You are INSANE!

 

You are such a mark.  I mean, mah gawd, how blind could you be?

 

HHH's hair is just presented that way!  We all know that he takes away ALL the conditioner bottles in the shower rooms so that the other guys' hair won't look as good as his.

 

In reality, his hair is OVERRATED.  It is just in comparison to guys like Foley is his hair elevated in the minds of YOU MARKS.

[Guest El Psycho Diablo]

I don't like the fact that people automatically assume there will be a suicide bump at any Hell in a Cell match. Foley did that because he was well..Foley. I love the guy, but he was stupid for doing it. Really, really stupid. Suicide bumps I put in the category with deathmatches. Useless.

 

I would rather see an outstanding (even 'intense') match between the two, which could happen, if Hunter gets his working boots on, and Jericho tries, than some moron getting thrown off the top of the cage. I respect Foley for what he's done, but it's sad that it's set a trend.

 

Let them stay inside the cage. Play up the rivalry between the two. Use it as a vehicle for their agression. But please don't let one of them do something they'll regret later. I, for one, would rather have them both wrestle full careers than have them cut drastically short because some moron wanted to see a wrestler get thrown off the cage.

It's likely that Jericho will bump for HHH.  I'd like to see a HBK - Taker style match with Jericho as michaels and fleeing from a rampant and probably INTENSE HHH.

Jericho could go all flashy with the offense, missile dropkick, chest to chest lionsault, etc and HHH can totally no sell.

They brawl around the cage until Jericho goes to whip HHH on the ropes and HHH back drops him and jericho flies over the top and backwarsd THROUGH the cage. (Thats a nice bump for a start)  HHH comes out and pummels Jericho and goes to Pedigree him on the announce tabel but Jericho reverses to back drop him through the other table.

Jericho starts dragging HHH to the ring when Hunter gets up.  Jericho flees from HHH UP THE CELL and HHH follows.  They do the Austin - McMahon spot from SVM 1999 and Jericho takes the head smash and flies like a bird through the original announce table.  HHH mockes him and starts to climb down and goes for a Pedigree in the rubble, but Jericho low blows him and hits the Breakdown.

Jericho gets HHH back into the ring and goes for the pin, but HHH kicks out.  HHH hits Jericho with a DDT and rolls out to reveal his toy sledge.

HHH goes to deck Jericho with the sledge and Jericho dodges and dropkicks HHH over the ropes.  Jericho manages to splash HHH and goes for a pin to no avail.  They brawl back into the ring and Jericho manages to hit6 a bulldog onto the dropped Sledge and hits a lionsault for the win.

Or something like that.  Lots of blood and high impact bumps, with nothing to large but definately HOLY SHIT

[Guest converge241]

what im hoping is that there is no big bump planned in the match except as an audible or backup..what i mean is that id like to see them try to have a good match without having to resort to that..towards the end if they cant do that, then yeah have a backup spot planned to "add" to it.. and i think it would be padded.. they cant take a chance and have another top tier guy out

[Guest HeartBreakCod]

I honestly don't think it would be a great idea to just have them fight inside the cell.  I would have thought most would agree that crowd heat is an important part of a match.  Jerico v HHH at mania wasn't awful, but the dead crowd made it seem worse than it would have been had the crowd been into it and the fued booked right.

 

Foley said people just didn't buy the near falls against HHH in 2000 untill they broke out of the cell.  If they stayed in the cell, like it or not, the crowd would be dissapointed.  They need a creative way to get out and some controlled bumps added to some better 'wrestling' than many of the other HITCs had.  Then I think you send everyone home happy.
