I personally don't want to see him fight the old fossil Undertaker because he's not going to win. I can't stand watching the Undertaker fight at WrestleMania because his opponent doesn't stand a chance. No matter how big they try to build it up prior to the PPV.
So Taker only wrestles at WM now?
Pretty much, yeah. He may make an appearance in the Royal Rumble itself but it's only to build up his match for WrestleMania. As BAM said, he's being doing this the past couple of years and I don't see him stopping it anytime soon unfortunately.
its been 'reported' that he wants to lose to a upcoming star. at this point and time, there is none that wwe would give that push. everybody knows that lesner wont win (he would be leaving after wrestlemania for ufc again). we already seen taker-kane and taker-hhh three times.
but, yea with the lack of stars left. i can see a lesner-taker match. unless they can't get that to work...off chance cena-taker. if cena is busy with rock again...maybe punk-taker.

I don't ever see that streak being broken unfortunately. I hate the Undertaker!
Sorry to hear about Jerry Lawler's heart attack. Hopes for him and his family that he pulls through. The sad thing was with all the tasteless angles and storylines WWE has done over the years (mocking Jim Ross' cerebral palsy, Katie Vick anybody?), I initially thought this was yet another of those. I mean Lawler and his feud with CM Punk, Lawler just worked a match a half hour earlier, it made sense.
What's up with this crap story line with Kane and Daniel Bryant? UGH!!!
Agreed, but in typical WWE fashion, they will run storylines that have lost all value into the GROUND! Give it at least another month of this I'd say, but probably more.
Yes, the tag team division in WWE sucks! It has for a number of years. What happened to teams like the Hardyz, Edge & Christian, the Dudley Boyz, etc? The only team that I "somewhat" have an interest in are the Prime Time Players and that's only because they remind me of Cryme Tyme who never got the tag team titles.
I think the Kane/Daniel Bryan storyline is HILARIOUS, even though it doesn't make much sense, and it's further proof that WWE creative has no idea what to do with the Kane character.

I like CM Punk, but I'm getting tired of listening to him week after week - sometimes twice a show - complain about not getting enough respect. I bought into it at first but now I'm starting to get sick of hearing it. Come up with something fresh. Also, change up his opponent. I liked his reference about the Oklahoma City Thunder getting in the back of the line last night when they lost in the NBA Finals. Why is CM Punk scheduled (I know Cena is injured and may not make the PPV) to face Cena for a third straight PPV match!? STALE PRODUCT!
CM Punk is great, but I think his character is getting stale now because RAW is three hours long. Since Punk believes the show should be centered around the champion (and it should be), we see him numerous times throughout the broadcast, cutting the same promo. Seeing Punk come out three or four times in a 3-hour period is enough to tire anybody out. That's just my personal opinion.
On a different note, I just finished reading the Bret Hart autobiography for the 3rd time. Great read, but like most autobiographies (especially those written by athletes), it is completely self-serving. Bret tells us more than once how he was the best in the world, and how he made more money for Vince than HBK ever could, and he has no problem bashing other wrestlers. Again, he's telling the truth as he sees it, but like all wrestling autobiographies, it is best to take some of it with a grain of salt. Still, it is a highly entertaining read, which is why I've read it three times now.

I own it and have only read it once. I need to read it again. I remember being highly satisfied with it after reading it because I was looking so forward to it being released. I had heard rumors that he may write another 2 books but I haven't heard anymore about it since the original came out.
Quite possibly the greatest promo ever...certainly one of my all-time favorites:

So the big news today: CM Punk assaults a fan during the final segment of RAW last night. There's been a lot of speculation as to what let to Punk backhanding the man, but this video can leave no doubt in anybody's mind:
Never mind the fact that the security did a piss poor job of controlling the crowd, but the bottom line is Punk should have maintained his composure. It's one thing to shove someone who is getting too close to you, but to turn around and backhand a fan is just unacceptable, especially when it turns out you hit the wrong guy! I doubt Punk will be suspended, but a hefty fine is due, IMHO.

I was really surprised at this. You NEVER see wrestlers lose their cool and hit fans. I heard Vince was pissed (obviously). This reminded me of the Jericho incident in Brazil over the summer when he got suspended for 30 days. Different occurrences but they can't really suspend Punk now that he's the champion and defending at a PPV later this month. They could always schedule for him to lose it and then suspend him if that's what they're going to do.
Well according to Punk, he heard some fans yelling "Let's push him down the stairs!" Also, he claims a fan hit him multiple times in the kidneys. Unfortunately, the guy he ended up attacking was the wrong guy. It's a shitty situation all around.
In other news, WARRIOR AND VINCE ARE GAY!!!

No. The only thing in the script was for Punk to go into the crowd and for Vince to tell him he's either going to face Ryback or Cena at the PPV and he needs to decide by next Monday. The incident with the fan was TOTALLY unplanned and not part of the show.
I was channel flippin the other night and I came across a wrestling show called Ring of Honor. I seen Matt Hardy on it. Is this a new show? I don't get this show where I live in Ohio but it is on in Newport News.
