k thx 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2006 (edited) Ah, prediction time. Simple question: what do you reckon will be WWE match of the year come the end of 2006? Which pairing has the potential to put on the best match in the next twelve months. I'm going to start off with an unlikely one: Batista vs Orton. Assuming they're gonna feud for the title, I can see a good stipulation PPV main event for the title. They've got a lot of history, the creative team are more likely to give them a good feud than anyone else, and if they play to their strengths it could end up being match of the year. Any thoughts?

Hoff 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2006 (edited) Who knows who'll step up or bust onto the scene this year, but based on the current landscape, and my own personal bias, I'll say a Shawn Michaels/Shelton Benjamin rematch, hopefully with more time given.

Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted January 1, 2006 Kurt Angle vs. Samoa Joe. Seems pretty likely that Joe will make the jump to the WWE and I'd love to see him and Kurt try to kill each other. Also Ric Flair vs. Ricky Steamboat at Wrestlemania. Sure they are a couple of old guys but they could pull of **** on the front lawn of a nursing home.

chaosrage 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2006 If Flair and Steamboat just stood around and chopped each other for 30 minutes, Flair fans would give it 4 stars and call it the greatest match of the year. All of the guys at deathvalleydriver would be going nuts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Si82 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2006 Seems pretty likely that Joe will make the jump to the WWE and I'd love to see him and Kurt try to kill each other. Please don't say things like that. It's the worst thing Joe could do. As for match of the year, why not another Micheals/Angle match. Do it with a proper build up and they should put on a fine contest.

The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2006 I'll go with Brent Albright vs. Chris Benoit, followed by Benoit vs. Orton and Michaels vs. Benjamin II. Albright would be fed to Angle on Raw, so hopefully he goes to SmackDown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
