Cena/Punk.



I don't get the appeal of the concerts on the show. I never have and likely never will.

Same. I didn't really care for C Lo Green last year.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

Cena/Punk.

^^^ Agreed, I respect the hhh vs lesnar match even though I dislike lesnar BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT cena and punk can be and usually is one hell of a match, definitely deserving of a last match spot.

Someone made a thread on here asking if anyone would be interested in a Miz-Sheamus feud since it hasn't happened yet. I wouldn't mind it a bit if it gets Miz back to where he was before.

How about you?

Miz needs to be built up again before that.

Where were you on the day that Chris Benoit died?

 

[klunderbunker]

Home.

Do you think if there's a potential problem with Ryback, it'll be more on the competition than Ryback himself?

 

[klunderbunker]

Depends on the kind of problem.

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

Depends on the kind of problem.

My thing with Ryback is that while I can see the comparisons with Goldberg, Goldberg had guys like Hall, Hogan, Hennig, and The Giant among others to go through. The WWE doesn't have that. So what if Ryback beats Ziggler or he beats Swagger or Rhodes? They lose most of the time anyway so it's not a big deal. I don't think the WWE has had a dominant heel since JBL where if he lost, it meant something. That's the problem I see with Ryback.

 

[klunderbunker]

Goldberg didn't get to anyone of note until about #75 which was over Raven for the US Title. Until then almost everyone was a low level jobber. Instead of guys like he's fighting now, he should start running over people like Primo or Epico or Tatsu or whatever. They have this massive roster and a lot of those guys would love to get steady TV appearances jobbing.

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

That's true. They should have done it by now. He's been squashing nobodies for a couple of months and it's gotten old.

Regarding the Kidman/London storyline in 2004, did it seem like to you that Kidman came off as a face while everyone else came off as a heel?

 

[klunderbunker]

If I remember right that was where he was afraid to use the Shooting Star and cost them the tag titles right?

Yeah he kind of did. The guy was having psychological issues and London was basically saying be depressed on your own time and get over it when you're out here, which is a pretty jerky move.

Yeah, it was. I would like to see that kind of storyline again except not with concussions since they're cracking down on those.

What is a worser case of fired angles: Austin or Stephanie McMahon?

 

[klunderbunker]

What do you mean?

 

[Little Jerry Lawler]

Bischoff fired Austin, he comes back a month later as GM. His team loses at Survivor Series. He comes back a month later as sheriff.

The Alliance loses at Survivor Series. Stephanie comes back a month later. She loses after Wrestlemania and is supposed to never appear on TV again. She is named Smackdown GM two months later.

Which was more ridiculous?

 

[klunderbunker]

Stephanie. In her case, no one wanted to see her again. Austin was still popular at least.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

What is better, a Royal Rumble or MITB win?

 

[klunderbunker]

Rumble.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

Rumble.

Agree. Do you think the whole MITB concept takes away from winning the Rumble?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not really.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

I'm a bit confused. Is this year's match actually for the titles or will there still be briefcases hanging above the ring?

 

[klunderbunker]

There will be briefcases.

 

[Martin Gabriel]

Me and you both know throughout the history of MITB winners that nobody has ever cashed in and came up empty handed. So my question to you is do you think a MITB winner will ever cash in his briefcase and fail to win the title? It's never happened before but anything is always possible.

 

[klunderbunker]

Sure it will. That's the key to the shock value: make it seem impossible then do it.

 

[Hollywood Naitch]

How highly do you rate Wade Barrett? Is he a future World Champion? Does he have IT? What is his biggest weakness?

 

[klunderbunker]

He has a lot of potential but he needs to stay on his own insted of constantly being on some team.
