General WrestleMania XXIV Discussion

[Shocky]

SmackDown should definitely get the main event for once. This is definitely the case if Edge and Undertaker are competing for the title, which definitely should be the case. I think that a win by either man would please the fans, but I - being an Edge mark - would like to see the deadman lose his winning streak. In previous years, even though a SmackDown superstar has won the Royal Rumble, thus giving him the right to compete in the main event, it hasn't taken place.

As for the Raw "main event", my guess is that it will be along the lines of Orton vs. Kennedy. It was clear that Kennedy was planned to be in the WrestleMania main event anyway before his injury and I don't see Orton dropping the title before then, or even then for that matter. A great idea would be for the winner of Money in the Bank to defeat whoever the winner of one of the big title matches for the title. Now that would create big news.

Other than that, I couldn't really care less for the rest of the card, it just seems pointless and disinteresting to me.

I think I floated that Idea for WM23 for Edge to take down the Undertaker or Batista right after they win. Awesome heel heat. I can see it happening sooner or later too.

I honestly think Money in the Bank has run it's course this year. It jumped the shark with 8 guys in it. The card was horrible, and just a shit pay per view from top to bottom in my opinion. Now you break up MITB and have matches like Edge vs. Orton, Jeff Hardy vs. Kennedy, Matt Hardy vs. King Bookah, Finlay vs. CM Punk, or something along those lines, the undercard doesn't look so bad. I say quit sticking 6 of the guys that in the past would have made up the undercard, but instead load them all up in a match that has lost it's appeal.

 

[batistafanNZ]

Well why dont they do a inter brand main event with the title on the line example if u had Batista vs Undertaker vs Edge vs Rey Mysterio vs HHH vs HBK vs Lashley vs Y2J etc And it would be like either a cage match or a ladder with both titles on the line so if it was a ladder match both titles would hang or the first to to escape the cage just to mix superstars cause that could see HBK on smackdown with the World Heavyweight Title and Undertaker on RAW with the WWE title

 

[pockets]

how bout a dx implosion, and we have hbk vs hhh in hell in a cell or ladder match. for the world title: randy orton vs y2J. over on the smackdown side, we of course can have the taker match vs edge match. we can also have batista vs umaga for no. 1 contendorship and rey vs jeff hardy (for ic title ladder match?? i know, im really stretching). as for kennedy, perhaps he could fight cm punk for the title. i think thats a pretty solid card.

That honestly is a great idea. Itwould make the card more worth the buy and the watch. All of those matches could have had potential to be great except for the exception of Jeff Hardy.

Or why not make it a tournament and at the end the winnner is rewarded the MITB. Sort of reminiscent to Wrestlemania 4.

That is a much better idea rather than shoving good talent in to one match.

Or change up the stipulation a bit. Maybe two ladder matches and split them in half. And then the winners battle later.

 

[Chain Gang MVP]

I've come up with an idea for Cena to be involved in 'mania despite being injured. He lives in Tampa so it would be easy travel for him. He could be the special guest on Chris Jericho's Highlight Reel. Cena would update the fans on his condition and when he will return to the ring. They could have the Rock(who also lives in Florida) intervene, cut a gold promo and give Cena a Rock Bottom. If the rumors about Rocky Johnson being inducted into the HOF are true, the Rock could come back to induct him. It would be the ultimate mark out moment of the show.

Now you're thinking of the old school "King of the Ring" p.p.v. Unfortunately, for whatever stupid reason.. W.W.E. didn't think that p.p.v. was worth anything. (morons)

I love one night tournaments, but not at Wrestlemania. The only time it'd be acceptable, is in the case of WM 4, when they were crowning a new World Champion.

I also love the MITB being a Wrestlemania style match. But not by filling it with 8 wrestlers. Thats over-doing it, & as the most recent one showed, it sucked. In my opinion on that matter, the only truly great one, was the first one. I say go back to 6 men.. (2 from each brand) & have it..

Money In The Bank: (Raw) Jeff Hardy & Mr. Kennedy (or Shelton Benjamin) (Smackdown) M.V.P. & Matt Hardy (E.C.W.) Elijah Burke & Kevin Thorn (or any of the 3 top contenders now - Punk, Morrison or Miz)

Any way you have it.. none of them would be truly missed, as the Hardyz are glorified Tag Team specialists.. who put on good, sometimes great single's matches.. but not WM quality. M.V.P. SHOULD be Heavyweight contender material, which would make him a ringer for the winner.. & the E.C.W. guys would be underdogs, yet still worth looking at.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other matches I assume will happen.

Main Event: World Championship: Edge v. Undertaker: The showdown of all showdowns? Not exactly.. but it will be in many people's eyes one of the better Main Events that a Wrestlemania will have held. Taker will have revenge on his mind, while Edge will look to capitalize on what noone thinks he can do, what noone else has been able to do. I truly believe these two will steal the show, & in my hopeful opinion, Edge will win. (doubtful, but hopeful)

W.W.E Championship: Shawn Michaels v. Triple H.: I know noone wants another match between these two, much less on the "biggest stage" but I see it happening. W.W.E. is currently lacking in Main Event talent right now, & regardless of anyone's feelings toward another one of these matches.. the fans will still go crazy for it. H.B.K. being the McMahon-heel, with Triple H. being the savior?

Intercontinental Championship: Chris Jericho v. Randy Orton: Purely assuming Chris Jericho is even back, I can see these two fighting with Jericho somehow taking the belt off Hardy upon his return, then Orton dropping out of Main Event status, for this night at least. Many would assume these two fighting for the I.C. title would hurt them, but in all reality, it'd HELP build the I.C. Championship better.

 

[manicmania]

This is my first post so bear with me.

WHC MATCH: Undertaker vs Edge- I'm not as sold on this as everybody else is but it seems to make sense right now. If Edge wins, then I'm soooo happy.

WWE CHAMPIONSHIP: Randy Orton vs Chris Jericho- Jericho wins rumble. This is just the freshest match possible. This would be the one match on the card that I would just be so excited about. Could be just amazing.

GRUDGE MATCH: Triple H vs Shawn Michaels- Why not? Have hbk play heel only to hug Triple H after he loses to him. They have faced each other a million times but on this stage, it would probably be a classic.

INTERBRAND MATCH- Bobby Lashley vs Batista- This match will sell and will at the same time be forgettable. Could be bad but I don't know I do think Batista has stepped it up a little bit in the ring. But I do think the promo's would just be horrible. Eh.

U.S TITLE MATCH- MVP vs Rey Mysterio Jr- This should be a great feud. This could be the feud that makes MVP a true superstar.

INTERBRAND MATCH- Ric Flair vs Mr Kennedy- Okay, may not happen. But I'm thinking on Raw it is announced that Flair is being inducted into hall of fame and kennedy comes out and bashes flair and then maybe like a week later he puts a beat down on arn anderson. I just don't think Sting is coming to the WWE. This would be a good match and Kennedy could lose and still be put over.

ECW TITLE MATCH- Mick Foley vs John Morrison- would help ratings for the show. I don't even know if this needs to be for the title. It would just add some intrigue to the brand, could truly be hardcore and it just seems like the type of thing Vince would do.

MONEY IN THE BANK MATCH- Jeff Hardy vs Matt Hardy vs Umaga vs Cm Punk vs Finlay vs kane. Not sure what the stipulation will be and I am calling and hoping it will be brought back to just six wrestlers and not eight. I don't know, not crazy about this but I think it is inevitable and should be entertaining.

Besides that, I'm sure there will be a tag team match and women's title match but I don't really know or care who will be in the match. I aslo think cena could come out and realy do have a feeling The Rock will show up. What do you guys think. Feel free to be crtical.

 

[Loveless Chulita]

Hmm.. I didn't read through all 14 pages, yet! Bear with me, I'm at work.
Now, I can't really guess what the matches are going to be, give me until the middle of December and I'll know.
I actually decided to go to WM24. I've always wanted to go to one and might as well go in Florida although I was and still am a bit surprised that tickets weren't sold out despite the ratings not being as high as normal.

I would love to see The Rock pop up but I'm not going to hold my breath for it.

 

[The Ring-er]

Well right now I wont say anything.You never know what can happen."The Animal" could get injured.Someone could get fired or realeased(E.G. Booker T).
The match I wanna see is........................The Undertaker vs Edge.The background is GREAT!Both undeafted.Edge stole Takers title.Kane,Takers brother,injured Edge.Perfect set up.Family Feud.It would be sweet!

12th Match Edge (c) vs Undertaker in a R.I.P match (Hardcore)
Backstory-After Edge Defeated Batista and Undertaker for the title at Armageddon in a triple threat he would go on to defeat batista in a 3 stages of hell at Royal Rumble it was there that Undertaker made history eliminating the final 6 men from the Royal Rumble in no order Jeff Hardy Kevin Thorne Nunzio Y2J Kane and DH Smith. Scared to death at the thought of having to face Undertaker 1 on 1 at WM24's main event Edge hired people week after week such as C&M, Highlanders, Mike Knox, & Snitsky. At No Way Out during Undertaker's match against Snitsky and Mike Knox Edge came out with nearly every guy who had crossed paths in a bad way with the Phenom. Edge along with everyone else in the world thought there was no way possible Undertaker would be healthy by WM24. but less then a week after on Raw , ECW, and Smackdown 1 by 1 Edge would find every wrestler who helped him layed out. on FNS the deadman left edge a sign. it was a tombstone with the engraving saying "Adam Copeland October 30, 1973 - May 30 2007 Rest In Peace". The following week Edge made a statement. he would agree to not have outside interference, but in return if Undertaker lost he would have to Rest In Peace for good. as soon as Edge spoke the words the Undertakers music hit. a druid was in the middle of the ring with a letter in hand. he handed it to edge and dissapeared again. it read "Adam Copeland October 30, 1973 - May 30 2007 Rest In Peace". Edge seeing this as an acceptance of the stipulations proceeded to do many spiritual things in the weeks leading up to the match such as have excorcisms to protect himself from the undertaker. he talked to a priest and was told he had to wrong every wrong he ever did. the following Raw edge talked to the priest again but was told he had 1 more thing to do. edge put his head down knowing what it was he ahd to do before he can be spiritually cleansed. the following night on ECW edge called out Matt Hardy and begged for him to accept his apology. Matt said he'd accept under 1 condition, Edge would kiss JR's ass. the following Smackdown Edge did it and was spiritually cleansed. Edge now has no fear of the deadman feeling he is spiritually cleansed and protected from Undertaker goes into WM24's main event unintimitaded. for the 1st time in his career at WM Taker can not walk into the ring and have his opponent beat mentally. this is shaping up to be an epic match.

[Rabbid Wolverine]

i'm pretty sure orton and y2j will fued until rumble, i dont know if it could go all the way to mania.

maybe jericho vs hhh?? bc when hhh returned the first time from surgery, he beat y2j at mania (i think wm18), maybe we get to see how classy trips really is?! u think he would return the favour?

possibly cena, i guess if they turn y2j heel, which is not so bad, i always liked him better as a heel.

any thoughts?

 

[Rated K for Kennedy... Kennedy!]

Y2J v HBK THE REMATCH!!!! -salivates at thought of it.

Possibly Jeri-Kennedy, would be good to give him a chance to go against someone like Jericho at the bigtime, I'm just hoping our one and only Ayatollah of Rock and Rollah is not jobbed out at the rumble and competing in the MITB match!!!

 

[mrpaul]

I like the idea of a Y2J/Kennedy feud. Mr K is not ready for a WWE Championship title but these guys could make the Intercontinental Title more respectable. Then perhaps when Cena returns jericho might seek revenge for the whole Loser Leaves town or whatever it was.

 

[lonely_god]

I don't think having Y2J chase Orton straight away is the right idea, as I can't see them taking the belt off Orton just yet, which means Y2J is going to be on the loosing end of his first PPV match. Which, in turn, takes away a bit of heat.

Someone else posted about Y2J interupting a Kennedy promo in another thread, I think that would have been a lot better for a long term gain.

I hope Y2J isn't chasing Orton all the way to mania, as I don't think Orton has the ability to keep matches fresh that long.

I'd like to see Kennedy screw Y2J out of the championship, have a Kennedy - Y2J fued in the interim, with Y2J or Kennedy winning the rumble then a winner gets the title match stipulation bout at No Way Out (which Y2J wins) so Jericho & Orton only wrestle once between now and Mania.

But I can't imagine HHH not booking himself in the main event, especially as he had to miss last years, and I can't be dealing with ANOTHER triple threat main event.

 

[Meilichia]

Well, if Jericho stays this long, I am gonna guess Triple H. I don't see Triple H not being in the main event at mania, I mean he didn't get to do it last year, so I think he should this year, although there are so many people who deserve to be in the main event from Raw. I mean theres Jericho, Triple H, HBK, Orton, and if this is Ric Flairs last Mania, he deserves the big match as a good send off. It will be pretty interesting, and for those who are saying it will be Triple H because he can't not put himself in the main event, he wasn't in the main event at survivor series, he won't be the main event at Armageddon, it's probably not going to be a Triple H main event at royal rumble... As for Y2J, i'm going with Triple H, main event.

Ok not in the main event at survivor series, and armageddon oh big deal none of those come close to mania so that was a terrible point
i can see Jericho winning belt maybe at the rumble and then feuding with cena for the belt when cena is back

 

[flashhazzard]

To me it's hard to call. If Wrestlemania is Flair's last night...I would love for him to be crowned WWE Champ one last time. Then at Backlash, crown a new champ. BUT, back to Y2J. I think that Jericho will face Cena (if he progresses well enough) or HHH at Mania. I would rather Jericho face Orton. If they can keep Orton and Jericho seperated just enough until then, it would be great. Orton needs the belt right now to further establish him.

 

[IrishCanadian25]

I would not be shocked to see Jericho not win the Royal Rumble, but instead compete in the Money in the Bank Match at Royal Rumble. Jericho has quite an impressive ladder match record in his history, including a TLC match and an Intercontinental Title match with Chris Benoit.

He'd bring a great deal of star power to the Money in the Bank match, and allow Edge vs Undertaker and Orton vs HHH to go on uninterrupted.

 

[Meilichia]

You forgot to mention the Rumble too, which is in the big four. Your point also doesn't answer the question, as it seems Cena won't be back for mania, therefore... how can he feud with Cena?

 

[Lil Wes]

Kennedy. If Jericho wants to help put over and bring up younger talent, Kennedy would be a great choice for a big show like Wrestlemania, God the promos and build up these two could have would be awesome. Kennedy's been going nowhere on RAW lately with WWE busting their load for face's winning all the time, and there's no need to rush a face turn yet, so maybe with a feud and a win or two against HBK he will be over enough for a big feud with Jericho on until WrestleMania. Could be a great feud and match if done properly and Kennedy is a star, just hasn't gained much on RAW. A long feud with HBK and a rivalry with Jericho would gain alot. If not Kennedy...


MVP- Again, another upcoming star, Jericho wants to build young talent etc... Here's another upcomer and interpromotional feuds are always interesting, MVP really hasn't had that good long rivalry up until Matt Hardy but Meh, It's Hardy he's a nobody compared to Jericho. A feud with a big star would earn him some more cred as well.

But it is WWE so not likely. I wouldn't doubt Triple H just burys him or some shit, The MITB is meh, he does well in Ladder Matches but I'd prefer a 1 on 1 match with somebody, Jericho always has great matches on the big stage and a Kennedy or a MVP could use a feud with him to jumpstart a run in the Main Event picture. If it doesn't happen before.

 

[KingofPortonia]

He'd bring a great deal of star power to the Money in the Bank match, and allow Edge vs Undertaker and Orton vs HHH to go on uninterrupted.

Firstly, MITB is usually at 'mania and not royal rumble. I personally don't like the way Jericho has gone straight for Orton because it means the only way is down after that because he won't get the title so soon after his return. The only thing I can think of is Orton plays the sneaky heel and is constantly placing opponents in Y2J's way to distract him till he wins the Rumble??? That way we have a long fued leading to mania without Jericho and Orton get physical. I feel the mania main event always work better if it built up before the rumble - batista vs HHH was great when they done that

 

[Lil Kru]

You forgot to mention the Rumble too, which is in the big four. Your point also doesn't answer the question, as it seems Cena won't be back for mania, therefore... how can he feud with Cena?

I didnt say feud with Cena at mania now did i would imagine Orton will want a re-match dont you maybe i am giving you to much credit last i heard cena was a head of schedule so i expect they start playing up his return at mania which will start the feud just didnt know i had to spell everything for you sorry i will remember that for next time

 

[Bogair]

I'm looking for like you said, Jericho and Orton to fued til the rumble, then just like the Batista era, Jercicho will win the rumble, then go on to face Orton and Possibly Michaels in a Triple Threat at WM

 

[Deus1138]

Jericho is not going to start out in a feud with Jericho. It makes no sense because it leaves him nowhere to go but down.

Anyone who thinks Jericho is going to feud with Orton just because of last night's RAW does not remember Jericho's first debut. Jericho came out and interrupted the Rock towards the end of RAW. All the reporters on this site were telling us Jericho was going to feud with the Rock from the get go. This was a fine example of why wrestlers say a lot of the news you read on these sites is bogus. Jericho and the Rock didn't even share camera time together for like another year and half.

Jericho will find himself a mid carder to feud with. WWE will feel him out. Does he still have it? Any ring rust? If all is well, he'll work his way back to main event status.

 

[jbarilla]

I'd have Orton and Jericho go until Royal Rumble, with Orton barely getting by. Then, let Jericho win the MITB but be the first guy to cash it in on the same night - defeating Orton after he successfully defends the title against Triple H.
