WWE Vengeance actually shaping up nicely... ECW: tough PPV to follow... (spoiler)

[Somebody's Gotta Die]

So at this point, Vengeance is set to take place in 2 weeks...

With the recent additions of John Cena and Kurt Angle to RAW, the brand is getting really over...

The following matches have been confirmed for Vengeance:

WORLD TITLE - HELL IN A CELL
Triple H vs. Batista

- It could be good, it could be not so good... This feud should have been over a long time ago; however, this match could be pretty exciting and it will be interesting to see what Batista can do in this kind of match...

WWE TITLE - TRIPLE THREAT
John Cena vs. Christian vs. Jericho

- This looks amazing to me... I'm excited for it... Christian in the main event picture = gold... Jericho back in the main event picture = gold... Could be a pretty damn good triple threat match too...

WRESTLEMANIA REMATCH
Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels

- Two of the best guys in the company... I am confident this match will be amazing even if the two have an "off" night... I can definitely see HBK going over this time and possibly re-sparking their feud...

GRUDGE MATCH
Kane vs. Edge (w/Lita)

- Could be all right if there are some surprises... Shouldn't be anything special... Should be a big enough stage to end the Kane-Edge feud so that Edge can pursue new options (WWE/World title) and Kane can do something completely new...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other possible matches:

Muhammad Hassan vs. Shelton Benjamin
Hurricane/Rosey vs. anyone :-\
Chris Masters vs. Viscera :shifty: (hey, they are getting plenty of TV time)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

A hell in the cell match...
Jericho-Christian-Cena...
HBK-Angle in a rematch...
This card is looking pretty good...

Won't come close to ECW One Night Stand, but it should be pretty good since it's following such a successful PPV...

During raw I thought they were gonna add Angle to the hell in a cell match. But then when they put him against Michaels I was like HOLY SHIT.

Yea I was thinking last night that it was setting up to be nice and then a few minutes ago I was looking at the card on a website and then it hit me that it was a great card. The only bad this is after the greatness that was ECW One Night Stand Raw sucked major. The only good points were the end. Even the Stone Cold Court didnt get me hyped up.

This isn't main event, this happens to be a title on Raw that needs to be up on the card, but will not be higher than the Hell in a Cell.

Would be interesting if Y2J won it and got drafted. Xtrain and Cena will probably (hopefully) work a programme up to summerslam.

It took me like half an hour for it to dawn to me that Jericho had a title shot. That he COULD win the belt. That's kinda sad that I'm so used to him not even getting chances anymore. :'(

On paper, it is definately a good looking card so far.

However, the main concern I have is that now only have one Raw episode to hype up the now modified WWE title match as well as the MAJOR rematch bewteen Michaels and Angle.

Heading into Wrestlemania, the Michaels/Angle match was built up for a long time and it made the event so much better when it delivered on the night.

Hassan/Shelton at Vengeance wouldn't be a bad idea at all. With everything that's going on, why not make it happen?

[Mr. JL]

Well, technically WWE Vengeance is not following ECW ONe Night Stand... TNA Slammiversary is June 19, 2005 this Sunday night (if anyone cares) is following the ECW PPV.

Corky: No he doesn't

Friend: AT VENGEANCE! AGAINST CENA AND CHRISTIAN!

Corky: NO HE DOESNT

*hours later*

Corky: JERICHO!

[Mr. Nerfect]

I called the Triple Threat. That's enough to get me there. Two out of three really excellent matches on that card are enabled thanks to this draft, so there's a plus.

Personally, I'm hoping for a double title change. Jericho beats Cena in a foul way (I'm thinking completely butchers him with a steel chair, using the No DQ rule to full effect), Kane goes over Edge and Batista retains against Triple H. Edge and Randy Orton then assault Batista inside the Hell in a Cell, and Edge cashes in his rematch (Orton has been drafted to SD! by now). Edge pins Batista and walks away with the World Heavyweight Championship.

You now have Edge & Jericho as heel Champions on RAW. Edge vs. Batista and Chris Jericho vs. John Cena with the winners going on to unify the titles at Summerslam, wouldn't be a bad attraction to the show. Jericho beats Cena with Christian's help and Batista beats Edge cleanly to become the first (and only) man not named Triple H to win the World Heavyweight Championship twice. Batista and Jericho then face off in the main event, with Batista almost winning, but Randy Orton running down again and costing him the match. Chris Jericho unifies the World Heavyweight Championship and WWE Championship, just like he did the Federation Championship and WCW Championship four years prior.

Hell, from there start a tradition. Every four years the titles of the WWE are unified on a brand, with the Champions and two challengers facing off in a mini-tournament for the belts. The Unified Championship takes a new form, while the "World Championship" (the belt design of the World Heavyweight Championship) is reborn on the other brand.

Hopefully Xtian will be more than just a bump machine in that match.

unification matches :n:
