Official WWE WrestleMania XXVI Thread
 

Wonder what Cena's entrance is gonna be.

you just couldn't wait to start this, could you?

We always start the Mania thread early in the day.

i'm betting his entrance will be something where he runs to the ring, runs the ropes, then takes his shirt off to a high pitched cheer

My fucking land lady hasn't paid our cable bill so I can't order it on tv. :rant:

<font color=goldenrod>Really fucking stoked for this show.</font>

I may be waiting to watch this show until tomrrow when i can download it for free...all depends on if people actually show up and give me money

Pretty stoked about this Mania to be honest. :y:

I'm super duper mega amped to watch this show. I'm a closet geek, so I'm debating on whether or not to take my lap top to the pub I'm watching mania at.

Can't wait to see the show god dammit

What the fuck has randy orton done to his arms.

I am very excited about this show, and I'm watching it with some people from work. I am going to get some BBQ and watch THE SHOWCASE OF THE IMMORTALS!

Also where did that ginger hair looking freak sheamus come from lol

Looks mad funny.

Doors open at 1:30 (current 9:45). So fucking juiced you guys.

gonna be a drunken wrestling filled night.

doesn't sound like a bad idea at all

FUCK, 6pm CST can't get here fast enough.

I really hope they made new video packages to air on the PPV because as great as they are, I am getting tired of watching these same video packages.

Any guesses on crazy MITB spots? I'd love to see an Air Bourne from the top of a ladder, even if it knocks Bourne out for the rest of the match.

Lots of appealing matches on the card, but we've known that for weeks. Hart/McMahon is just going to be a beatdown (like Triple H/Orton was last year) but should still be fun, I hope they give Edge/Jericho plenty of time, and Undertaker/Michaels speaks for itself.

The match I'm most excited for is Punk/Mysterio, though. Punk has just been absolute money in this feud. Interrupting the birthday party for Mysterio's daughter might just be my favorite Punk segment of the past year, surpassing anything he did in the Jeff Hardy feud.

6 hour countdown!

I do hope they will open with Punk-Mysterio, that will be a grand start. As far as MITB goes, Kofi on 1 ladder inside, bourne on another outside. Both jump towards the ring ropes, somehow land their feet on the top rope and jump onto the other guys on either side! Now that is something too good to be true..

Aviators or the old school Hitman shades?

Greetings from Arizona. beautiful day here. McCartney concert next door. Traffic will be a nightmare. Expect the roof will be open at the stadium.

Ah yes, C.M Punks WWE debut

<font color=goldenrod>Posted this in another thread, but I've gotta say...they've really kept me guessing with the WWE and World Heavyweight Title matches. Cena and Edge both seem like slam dunks to win, but both belts have only changed hands at Mania once (WM 21, Cena and Batista each winning their first) and it would seem a bit silly for Jericho and Batista to both only have one-month title reigns (although short reigns seem to be a new trend).</font>

Anybody know if it's worth buying the WWE.com stream?

<font color=goldenrod>I definitely have to go to WM one of these years. I'm graduating college next year so going to Mania would be an awesome trip but I'm guessing my friends will want to go to Vegas or somewhere pricy in May. Can't really afford two big trips in a two month span.

Might wind up having to wait til WM30 since I'll already be close to the venue unless they swerve everybody and don't have it at MSG.</font>

hbk/taker is going to be fucking epic

First Mania since 21 that I am considering buying.

Although I fear we won't be surprised by many of the match results, I'm still looking forward to the show. How can any true Sports Entertainment fan NOT look forward to WrestleMania every year?!?

I got the same dilemma! I got a supposedly great internet speed but is the WWE stream available in HD?

I was thinking this too. was gonna start the thread ages ago to see if it pissed anyone off, i bet Xero woulda cried his eyes out

Mr. Top: Wrestlemania Edition is now updated.

IF you want a Wrestlemania Top 10 go there.

I'm about to start the WrestleMania XXVII thread. :shifty:

Alright, just got back from frisbee golf, ordered a couple pizzas, watching the Duke/Baylor game @ 4pm and then finally....I get a bag of weed, I uh mean Wrestlemania!

Being the nerd I am I've made my all time Wrestlemania card...

Essentially the rules are list 10 matches that happened at Wrestlemania. You can't repeat a wrestler or a title on the same card. Here's what mine looks like...

--Triple H (c) v. The Big Show v. Mick Foley v. The Rock (Fatal Four Way Elimination Match for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship WWF Wrestlemania 2000)

--Kurt Angle (c) v. Randy Orton v. Rey Mysterio (Triple Threat Match for the World Heavyweight Championship WWE Wrestlemania 22)

--Hulk Hogan v. Vince McMahon (Street Fight WWE Wrestlemania XIX)

--Chris Jericho v. Shawn Michaels (WWE Wrestlemania XIX)

--Randy Savage v. The Ultimate Warrior (Career Ending Match WWF Wrestlemania VII)

--Ric Flair v. The Undertaker (No Disqualification Match WWE Wrestlemania X-8)

--The Dudley Boyz (c) v. Christian & Edge v. The Hardy Boyz (Triangle Ladder Match for the WWF World Tag Team Championship WWF Wrestlemania 2000)

--Jake Roberts v. Rick Rude (First Round Match WWF Wrestlemania IV)

--Chris Benoit (c) v. Montel Vontavious Porter (for the WWE United States Championship, WWE Wrestlemania 23)

--Bret Hart v. Owen Hart (WWF Wrestlemania X)

As of yesterday afternoon, WWE officials were still going over the match order for tonight's WrestleMania 26. Believe it or not, there has at least been talk this weekend of having Vince McMahon vs. Bret Hart as the last match. It was previously noted that John Cena vs. Batista was set to go on last but apparently they still haven't decided. Source: F4Wonline.com

<font color=goldenrod>Really hope Batista vs. Cena doesn't go on last. I'm expecting a Cena win either way but given how much focus there's been on the kids I don't expect to see a heel ending WM with a win at any point in the next few years. Hoping for a swerve but I can't see it.</font>
