[U-Warrior]

The smackdown scramble match, is going to be friggan awesome. Probably spot heavy, but awesome.

[Xero]

"Taker doesn't accept and says he wants Vickie's soul and chases her."

lol

[Indifferent Clox]

La Familia is a pretty awesome stable actually.

[Destor]

Kendrick vs MVP vs Shelton vs Hardy vs H? Damn.

[Impact!]

Wow...I might just order Unforgiven

[Xero]

They shouldn't be doing gimmicks like this so close to Survivor Series.

In fact, this could have just been the Survivor Series theme and I would have been fine with that.

[Indifferent Clox]

More than likely the participants of the matches will face each other in a raw v. smackdown thing with two people from ecw each or some shit.

[Londoner]

Sounds like a strange show.

[Dave Youell]

Who honestly thought 6 months ago that Kendrick would be main eventing a PPV?

[Londoner]

Paul London will be WHC champ soon for all we know.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Kendrick vs MVP vs Shelton vs Hardy vs H? Damn.

What's more important, is that the match has to last 20 minutes, so HHH can't uber squash them.... Granted I suppose he could pedigree them all and cut a 19 minute promo...

[Paranoid Rattlesnake]

HHH probably won't even drop a fall

[Fox]

Exactly.

Load up the ME with guys that are disposable and make the King of Kings look like God for 20 minutes. I'm not that excited, TBH.

[Mr. Nerfect]

There is a chance this will be a Triple H blowjob, but I'm thinking that it won't go down like that. Especially seeing as the WWE has been pushing Kendrick so purposely, and has inserted him into this match. I mean, he technically went over Big Show to get in.

You also have Jeff Hardy and MVP, two guys the WWE likes, and that Triple H has sort of gone out of his way to put over (moreso Hardy, who spat it back, but his promo with MVP on his SmackDown! debut put Porter on some even ground, at least). Also, Triple H has dropped some wins to Shelton in the past.

If the young guys in this match (especially Kendrick, MVP and Benjamin) don't work together to make sure Triple H is in dire condition during this match, then it won't make sense. To be honest, this is the perfect way to get the WWE Title off Triple H without making him look like a bitch, and creating new talent.

[Inadequacy]

There is a chance this will be a Triple H blowjob, but I'm thinking that it won't go down like that.

tee-hee

[Innovator]

CMON MVP

[Xero]

If Hunter is going to drop the title to anyone, it better be MVP.

Might be SLIGHTLY premature, but I think he's close enough.

[Innovator]

He's the closest of anyone there, closer than Hardy

[Xero]

I still say Hardy would be a huge mistake, and will continue to for at least a year and a half.

[Tornado]

Fuck Me, Kendrick in the main event, awesome.
