WWE running dangerous line with Wrestlemania?
I have just been thinking about Wrestlemania these past few days, and I really think that WWE is running a dangerous line with potential match-ups. In most previous years there have been matches that were new and fresh, with real drawing power. I am having a hard time seeing that on this card.
Don't get me wrong, the card looks ok on paper, but for me, it could easily pass for a slightly longer normal PPV or RAW special card. We have seen Orton vs HHH already and the whole 'not touching until the event' has made it a very ordinary repeated story. If they actually go with Edge vs Big Show for the title, it is very ordinary indeed, even if they do add Cena in. Anyone with any knowledge will recognise that Michaels is not winning against Taker, and I think the whole streak takes away from the excitement of Taker's matches at Mania now. The ladder match will include Kane and Mark Henry and other than throwing some lighter wrestlers about, they don't add value or make you want to see the match. Finally, and most importantly, for me, is the Jericho match. This one has the potential to bring something different to the table. Names are flying about the net, like Piper, Hogan, Rourke, and Hogan vs Jericho has the potential to bring buys solely on the basis of it being different and special. Why then, do I get the impression that it will be Jericho vs Lawler? No offense to Lawler, he is a legend in his own right, but he would be such a disappointment for this match. We have seen him come out of the chair to wrestle on RAW so many times...this would be a very poor finale to this story in my opinion. All in all, nothing special is jumping off the page to me, and the card as it stands, does not impress me at all, and I fear wil not impress most casual fans. Any thoughts? Anyone excited? Anyone not see at all where I am coming from? Opinions please... |
