Man talk about the WWE throwing away big time Wrestlemania matches for nothing. Cena vs. Batista and Edge vs. Triple H should have been used at Mania, instead we're getting them in July and August? What the hell.
I think it's called "panic button". W.W.E. was losing grip on a fan base apparently, and this only confirms that it's bigger than we could've thought. Something's going on behind the scenes that likely isn't being reported, and it's causing them to extremely turn up the volume on NOW, not later..
While I doubt we have to fear if "later" ever comes or not.. the fact is, you're right. A lot of top quality Wrestlemania options are being flushed away on B-show p.p.v.'s and top quality Summer events that should've been this year's Mania repeats.
I'm convinced something big is happening, that noone sees or knows of, except for Mr. McMahon and possibly his close relation. They've been pulling the plug on doing a lot of extreme things, just to boost ratings.
Could T.N.A. really be becoming a thre.. hahahahaha nahhhhh...
I guess I can hold onto hope of Taker vs. HBK still at Mania, but it's looking more and more like Cena is going to make the Deadman tap in Houston, ew the horror, the horror.
If I see John Cena end the Undertaker's streak.. I just don't fucking know, but it won't be good. Shawn Michaels against the Undertaker in Texas is the best Wrestlemania Main Event they could have.. ever. Cena against Taker, and you'll have Texans killing the white rapper.
Anywho, Cena is good, Big Dave Dudd is terrible. Still, they are arguably the two most over guys on Raw. I'm still just shocked that the WWE is shooting it's load on this match prematurely.
I think I'm well off into the minority, but Batista since moving back to Raw has suddenly become enjoyable to watch (for me) again. He's still lingering in the Main Event Championship scene, but he isn't alone. That's what makes it okay, by me.
John Cena against Dave Batista was the argued match-up in 2005, wasn't it? So we're only 3 years late on this one, but it could still be salvagable. The question is, why is this match taking place? What purpose is it serving? Nothing is building this match, outside of a new G.M. randomly putting two big names against each other.. and an accidental punch. Wow.. I'm hyped.
