IF Batista vs Taker happens at WM23
 
I do not think you can have a face vs face match. Therefore, I think it's finally time to turn Batista heel. Have him do it after the Rumble, before the Rumble whatever. He's long overdue for it, and because he is so over with the fans, turning him right now seems logical. Just like it seems logical to turn Cena right now too.

Who would you turn and why?

Innovator 12-04-2006 03:29 PM

he's over? his pops have been dying since he's returned

The Ravishing One 12-04-2006 03:33 PM

Turn him heel because he's so "over"???

I smell another Goldberg heel turn.

The Ravishing One 12-04-2006 03:33 PM

Also, i wouldn't say he's over.

So how much are tuition fees at the Vince Russo school of booking?

Chavo Classic 12-04-2006 03:39 PM

If anyone is overdue for a heel turn, its Taker btw.

Tb1 12-04-2006 04:03 PM

If anyone is overdue for a heel turn, it's Shawn.

Chavo Classic 12-04-2006 04:14 PM

in the context of this thread?

We're talking about the shitty shitfest shitstravaganza of Shittown that would be Undertaker and Batista wrestling, and you're concerned because you don't like face vs face matches?


What?

DominateR 12-05-2006 01:16 PM

Yeah, because face vs. face matches typically end up as No Contest or DQ or double count-outs or something, and nobody wants to see that.

Am I the only one here who thinks this match would blow, regardless of whether or not it ended in a draw?

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

Afterlife 12-05-2006 03:39 PM

I think taking Crazy Pills is the only way to assume the match would be good. Or a good idea. Hell, I can hardly bring myself to call the concept a "match".

Taker doesn't wrestle much lately -- and after 15 years, he's earned a lax in-ring style. At least he's not a slap-frenzied, chop blocking, balls-clenching Woo Master. But I digress.... My point is that taker isn't uber technical. But Batista is basically a "Dave smash!" kinda 'wrestler'. And since neither guy puts on much of a show thru performance, I see a total bomb fest -- finishing moves notwithstanding -- from this little escapade.

Destor 12-05-2006 04:00 PM

Neither need to nor should go heel. If Taker does indeed loose you need a passing of the tourch so to speak. And that should go to a baby face. Passing the tourch to a heel doesn't make much sense.

Afterlife 12-05-2006 04:13 PM

But it also seems impossible to 'pass the torch' to a face in any way in this respect. The heel that wins could one day turn face and still brag of this accomplishment, but any face that beats him will be instantly booed.

Destor 12-05-2006 04:20 PM

Nah, I don't see that.

Afterlife 12-05-2006 04:34 PM

Then I'll prod you to share with the rest of the class what you do see.

Fox 12-05-2006 10:38 PM

This should be the match where Batista turns heel. He beats Taker fair and square, they shake hands, embrace, Cole and JBL hype up Taker's first WrestleMania loss to The Animal, then BAM! Spinebuster, Powerbomb, Batista walks out to a chorus of boos.

We then get Benoit/Batista leading into the new "season."

tucsonspeed6 12-06-2006 08:35 AM

There's no reason Taker should even fight anyone from Smackdown. In years past, he's taken on Raw guys for Wrestlemania. I forsee they'll feed him the top heel not involved in a title match. If it happened today I'd say Edge...and he'd job after a minute without putting in any offense.

Taker will never pass on the torch because he will never job to another man, woman, or child for the rest of his life. McMahon jobbed to him. HHH jobbed to him. Anyone who won't job to him won't even get in the ring with him because they know they'll eventually have to.

addy2hotty 12-06-2006 08:42 AM

Batista vs Taker at Mania will result in strike 2 for the on-notice Vince McMahon.

Cena vs Orton will result in strike 3.

I could be out of wrestling by the night after Mania.

Afterlife 12-07-2006 12:45 AM

TS6 is right; I heard that's why there was no Taker/Brock feud. Lesnar didn't want to lose.

There was a Taker/Brock feud, culminating in Brock beating him in a cell at No Mercy in 2003.

El Fangel 12-07-2006 09:29 AM

Wasn't it Armageddon 2003 :?:

Kane Knight 12-07-2006 09:58 AM

Let whoever's gonna lose turn heel. Good will conquer evil, and Batista's 6 fans can keep cheering him.

Kane Knight 12-07-2006 10:00 AM

Let whoever's gonna lose turn heel. Good will conquer evil, and Batista's 3 fans can keep cheering him.

Kane Knight 12-07-2006 10:00 AM

Let whoever's gonna lose turn heel. Good will conquer evil, and Batista's mom can keep cheering him.
