I know people often don't like my suggestions but have him go to Smackdown bring in Mason Ryan as his 'associate' have him recruit Drew McIntyre and William Regal and call themselves the Union or something then you have respectable stable which makes more slightly more sense.

It seems like they're looking to climax Del Rio/Rey sooner rather than later. Personally, a 2 out of 3 falls match seems like a better idea as a PPV match than a random Smackdown, but whatever.
If I had to guess, I think they're building toward a Del Rio / Edge fued. I don't know if it will last until Mania, but I could see them maybe even fighting at the Rumble after Edge has his final blow off with Kane this week.
Christian has to be the most overrated guy in the entire business. I'm a fan of his, but his marks treat him like the second coming of Jesus. It's annoying to see them continue bitching about stuff that happened five years ago. Maybe he would have been world champion by now if he didn't jumped ship to TNA. He was never gonna win the title in 2005 anyways
Christian's time has already pass. There's not much stock in pushing him anymore.

When was the last time Christian did a promo that wasn't the same thing he's always done?Lard said:
Austin, Rock, Cena, and even the Miz can channel different emotions and styles. Have you ever seen Christian try to be angry? It's hilarious.

From this point forward Christian bashing has turned to Randy Orton bashing. Randy Orton is not a draw, the only draws are Cena and sometimes Undertaker at WM(excluding the Mark Henry match and the second HBK) Randy Orton has never had a passable match in his life. He is pathetic in the ring, he can't even execute clothesline and the recent powerbombs properly. Jumpin Jeff has better clotheslines than RKO. Check it out in his highlight video. The really sad thing about Orton is that there is no difference between his Raw matches and PPV matches. He never attempts to step it up or pick up his pace, he can't but she should try. Randy Orton attempts to wrestle like a 60 year old 350 pound 70's porn style wrestler before the first wrestlemania. Dolph Ziggler is the best performer in the E today, RR winner. God bless.
Did all the Christian doubters completely ignore his stint in WWECW? He got absolutely gigantic reactions while simultaneously having to work off of no-talent jobbers. I mean he would get the biggest reaction of the night (counting the Smackdown tapings) while cutting promos on Big Zeke.
He got over for being "vicious" during the con-chair-to era with Edge. He may not be throwing people through walls like Lesner but if they turned him heel and handed him a chair, I'm sure he could regain that reputation. The E gets flak for being PG but they've shown in recent weeks they aren't afraid of chairs any more.
I'd be happy for them to reignite the Del'Rio fued when he gets back. I don't know if I'd put the title on him or give him a rumble win, but he's definitely someone they need to use when he gets healthy.

Watched SHIMMER volume 33 - pretty good show again. Daizee Haze vs Ayumi Kurihari worked a whole lot better the second time round, while Nicole Mathews vs Jessie McKay almost stole the show with a hard-fought match, but unsurprisingly the best match of the show was Ayako Hamada vs Tomoka Nakagawa, which is the first time that match has taken place anywhere. The veteran Hamada started off cocky, attempting to embarrass Nakagawa who has only been wrestling a year or so, but things picked up shortly after and didn't let up pace once. Great match, really hard-hitting and a good finish. Madison Eagles defending the SHIMMER championship against Cheerleader Melissa was the main event, but it couldn't quite live up to the previous match, probably went a bit too long and finished awkwardly, though both women worked really well. I'm not entirely sold on Eagles as champ, but she's a good heel and gets a ton of heat - should be awesome for whoever she eventually puts over.

I was just watching SyFy's Twilight Zone Marathon and The Chancellor in The Obsolete Man really reminded me of Wade Barrett. He even has some of the same mannerisms. :lol

He wanted out cause they dropped the ball, and they let him out. Everything went smooth though, so I guess they could invite him back in the future if they have a workable storyline, and if the poor guy does not get saddled with a TNA contract, which would be a fate worse than ultimate death.

Last Monday, but the idea has been building for about a month.
CM Punk was doing commentary on RAW for a few weeks (cause he was injured for a while), and always had bad things to say about Cena. Two weeks ago he stepped things up, jumped up from commentary, and hit Cena with a chair. The week after (last week), at the start of RAW he said Cena was a liar, for going against his word in the Cena vs Nexus storyline, and lieing to fans ect. He also said Cena was in for a suprise at the end of the night.
At the end of that RAW, Nexus came out and, and Otunga said the group were under new management (hinting at himself), this lead to them beating up Cena, and as they walked up the ramp, Punk came out, got a chair, and went to hit Cena (who was lying prone on the ground), but at the last second he pulled back, which was something Cena refused to do with Nexus (he beat the all down with a chair at the TLC PPV). He then opened the chair, sat down beside Cena, and put on a Nexus armband
...like so
Wade needs to lead a group, Regal deserves to be in more of a spotlight plus they have welsh Batista and drew they have to push have them the tag team champions have wade the world champion it would be great.Liu Kang Baking A Pie said:
Plus it's the only way this would work in wwe unless they do a British empire group and use Canadian + other talent.

I thought that was his straight-edge salute... at least I think he did it with the SES.
Decided to go through my Rumble boxset to prepare for this year's.
First time, I've ever seen the first Rumble in its entirety and its odd to think that it originally started as a television special, which you can tell by the odd commercial breaks, but they never say going to commercial
They could never get away with booking a PPV like this again.
I mean there is like 4 matches, aside from the Rumble. Like 10-15 minutes wasted on Dino Bravo trying to break the bench pressing record, a contract signing on a show, like 4 long interviews, and a 2 out of 3 falls match that ends after 2 falls.
The Rumble itself was a novel idea, I mean its the first so had some kinks to work out (like only had 20 people originally) and really it meant nothing at this point since the title shot wasn't granted until 1993.
I don't remember this era of wrestling so don't really know any of the personal dramas that make the Rumble so exciting, and it is odd that the show features no Macho Man seeing how he would become champion in like 2 months.

No, he sucked in TNA and ECW and no one watched either when he was on top. How can you suggest a guy can draw for a Wrestlemania main event when he can't even get interest in ECW? You're just holding on to the memory of his old heel gimmicks and comedy routines rather than accepting how ordinary he really is.Striker said:
When he was on top, ECW was watchable. It's when Dreamer held the title that show was lackluster (and still got ratings, gasp). It was a shitty show, did you expect it to garner much of a rating?Liu Kang Baking A Pie said:
Who do you put in Smackdown's main event at 'Mania? Assuming Edge is still champion, because we know how WWE really limits his championship duration.

Edge vs Jericho 2, but Edge is the heel this time.
This Wrestlemania is going to suck and lack star-power no matter what happens, but Christian is not a draw. It's been tried for years. He's a JTTS for life.

The WWE should have seen the situation coming, and really should have planned better once they lost HBK and Batista within 3 months of each other. they had more than adequate time to get some new blood into the scene.
At this point, the WWE's main stable of main eventers have almost all been shuffled into Mania feuds, aside from perhaps a Mania feud for HHH/Edge and Taker/Cena, I think every other combination has been exhausted. HHH/Cena, HHH/Orton, Edge/Taker, Edge/Cena, Edge/Orton, etc
I would make a Triple Threat on Raw's side, though I hate them, with Cena, Orton and Miz.
And on Smackdown side, turn Edge heel and have him go up against someone like Kofi or they could do Rey/Edge, which I'm sure many here won't like.
Striker said:
I don't think it would be boring personally, they've never really had a big name feud between them, the only time they had one Rey was injured so wasn't the greatest feud in the world.
And this is only based on the WWE's top contenders/draws.
Generally, would use Rumble to elevate talent to the next level, but I don't feel they put anyone in that position to just kind of push through the final barrier in time for WrestleMania.
I mean given time, Kofi's there, Morrison is almost there, Swagger and Ziggler, but don't think in time for this year's Mania.
