CM Punk vs Undertaker at Wrestlemania - Page 2

**Theo Dious** · 11-26-2011, 12:48 PM

Anyways I'll never get over his appearance at the Royal Rumble.
Monsoon: Who is this guy???
Heenan: As far as I'm concerned, he can be whoever he wants!

**Droford** · 11-26-2011, 01:34 PM

Punk vs Taker at WM would have been brilliant back in Punks heel/SES days.

not so much now I dont think.

**Theo Dious** · 11-26-2011, 02:39 PM

Ugh somehow the prospect of Punk wanting to shave Taker's head...

According to Ryan Clark, 'Taker already did.

This does not even deserve for me to point out that it does not deserve a reply.

Mm-hmm. Ryan Clark said he did.

And for a brief second, he even hinted 'Taker had Cancer.

Sticking to my Miz saying he is undefeated at Mania and going for streak v streak match...

Michael Cole also makes this claim, but he's not going against 'Taker.

Didn't Miz and Morrison lose the tag titles to the Colons on the WM25 undercard?

**MVP** · 11-28-2011, 12:41 PM

I'd rather see CM Punk with a long WWE Title reign, so I don't want to see him face Undertaker at Wrestlemania XXVIII. Chris Jericho on the other hand, I have no problem with.

Other head.

**XCaliber** · 11-28-2011, 12:54 PM

Wouldn't be against it but I just don't see it happening as CM Punk is real hot right now and will likely be WWE Champion going into Wrestlemania and I highly doubt they'd have Taker win the strap in his last match.

**DAMN iNATOR** · 11-28-2011, 03:14 PM

If he keeps up the way he is, you know who I'd give the "vs. Undertaker" WM XXVIII match to?

SPOILER: show

**Theo Dious** · 11-28-2011, 08:30 PM

Yeah, given the two-year running pattern of streak rematches, would make sense.

**Aguakate** · 11-28-2011, 08:38 PM

I get the feeling Undertaker will face Alberto Del Rio at WM.

I don't know why.

**Theo Dious** · 11-28-2011, 09:31 PM

NOID ALERT.

Thinking about it, Jericho would do great for a match against Taker in an idea I've had for a while, that would work best if it was Taker's last match. You have Jericho return after the Rumble, without competing in it, and demand a title match at Wrestlemania. Have the authority figure of the day come out and tell Jericho that he may be the best in the world at what he does, but the title matches are already decided. That being said, he is going to offer Jericho something even better: a chance to face the undefeated Undertaker. Jericho accepts, only for the lights to go out, and for Jericho to take a choke slam from a materialized Taker.

Weeks later Jericho comes out and bashes Taker for cheap-shotting him. He says it won't be like that at Wrestlemania, because he went straight to the top, and Vince McMahon himself has granted him the right to name the type of match they will compete in. Jericho says that the Undertaker has competed on the grandest stage of them all, nineteen times. He competed in a casket match. He competed in a Hell in a Cell match. He competed in a street fight. He competed in a career ending match. He competed in title matches. He EVEN competed in a "Vulture on a Pole" match (cut to Taker's entrance against Giant Gigante, and have Jericho call him that.) But this year, the Undertaker will be competing in a LUMBERJACK MATCH... and the men surrounding the ring will be none other than the men the Undertaker has vanquished in his past Wrestlemania appearances.

The top of the stage fills up with those men that WWE can easily get to serve the purpose; Jummy Snuka, Jake Roberts, Mark Henry, Randy Orton, Kane, the Big Show, HHH, and Kevin Nash. I'd like to see them get Flair in there if he's available. Conspicuous by his absence will be HBK. (Not sure if King Kong Bundy would be available, but if they can get him, throw him in, and Albert too. For good measure I'd say throw in Harvey Whippleman (Giant Gonzalez's manager) and Ted DiBiase (I beleive he managed Bundy at the time Bundy fought Taker at Mania), and even Sid if he promises not to soil himself.
Taker appears on the Tron.
"Chris Jericho... if you think that you can overcome the darkness with this group of lost souls... you will find that those who fall into darkness will never return to the light... you... like them... wil rest... in peace."
The lights come up and Jericho is standing alone.

The week before Wrestlemania an agitated Jericho calls out the lumberjacks to the ring, and states that no matter what happened previously, they are on his side... and Jericho has one more card to play. He then introduces the SPECIAL GUEST REFEREE... SHAWN MICHAELS.

Michaels comes to the ring to a roof-blowing pop. Before he says anything Jericho takes the mic. He tells HBK that they have had their differences, but he has never forgotten that it was Michaels that made him want to wrestle, Michaels that made him set out to become the best in the world, etc etc, and he is glad, and maybe even a little honored that Michaels chose to do the right thing and help the men who have fallen to the Undertaker finally see him defeated.

HBK takes the microphone. He tells Jericho that he knows what Jericho is feeling. Everyone who has ever faced the Undertaker knows what he is feeling. They want to see the Undertaker fall. They want someone to rise up and prove that the Undertaker is only human. Nobody wants it more than he does... if it wasn't for the Undertaker, HBK would be stepping through the ropes at Wrestlemania to steal the show. BUT... if Chris Jericho thinks that Shawn Michaels is going to hand him the victory on a silver plate, he's DEAD WRONG. HBK drops the microphone and leaves to his theme music. Jericho appears flustered but gathers himself, and tells the crowd that's ok, because he still has his allies. He starts to ramble when someone (HHH or Kane would be best) takes the mic from him and tells him that HBK is right; they aren't there for him; they're not going to just give him what they worked so hard to get and never did. They proceed to walk out on him; finally the lights go out and a gravestone with Jericho's name appears on the Tron.

The match will go as it will, and might I say, probably quite epic. I see the finish like this; Undertaker goes for a choke slam on Jericho, only to be hit from behind and choke Tombstoned by Kane. Michaels hits Sweet Chin Music on Kane, knocking him out of the ring. Jericho moves to hit a Lionsault and is caught in an RKO. Taker gets up and goes to Tombstone Jericho, but is interrupted by Mark Henry and a World's Strongest Slam; this provokes the Big Show to hit the WMD on Henry, spilling the two out of the ring. Jericho goes for a cover and is hit with a DDT from Jake Roberts (HOW FUCKING EPIC would that be.) A bewildered Michaels lets the chaos reign and begins a count; Jericho pulls himself up using the ropes as the Undertaker sits up. Jericho throws himself at Taker in an attempted Codebreaker that Taker turns into a tombstone to end the match.

Damn. What a clusterfuck that would be.

**Theo Dious** · 11-28-2011, 09:55 PM

Maybe I'm just still a little let down from the slowed-down ending of the HHH/Taker match.

Was actually the only Mania in the last few years I didn't catch. For me the idea of CM Punk facing Taker and coming closer than anybody else has was the best one in the thread, but I'd still rather see him face Y2J. Taker can skip a Mania and do Cena next year, right?

**Theo Dious** · 11-28-2011, 11:56 PM

"Do" Cena? Not in the PG era, Sir!

Yea that was only somewhat intentional. I meant the match.

**Mr. Nerfect** · 11-29-2011, 03:48 AM

I like that idea, Tedious. Quite a lot. It's not my favourite thing for Jericho to do at WrestleMania this year, but I'd bite it. Taker vs. Punk is also not my favourite thing, but if Punk sold the match using his "pipe-bomb" methods ("You're just a man, Mark. An aging, broken man") I could really get into things. Doesn't seem like it's right, though. I could see the WWE getting cold feet about the idea because it makes Punk look like a heel. In reality, he's just CM Punk giving anyone shit, because he can.

**Damndirty** · 12-05-2011, 06:20 AM

If they want a bout to be in question if he could really hold onto the streak or lose it, they should have him go up against everybody in the Kliq. It would be HBK, HHH, Nash, Hall, and Waltman vs Taker in a five on one handicap match (better to get it over with instead of having him fight each one individually like they have been and are going to be doing), something that would be pretty much an unwinnable situation if not for Kane coming to Taker's aide. Farfetched, I know, but after seeing WCW and ECW invade WWF, David Arquette become World Champion, a one-legged wrestler, Bret Hart back in WWE, and Barack Obama vs. Hillary Clinton on Raw... what do you think?

**Corporate CockSnogger** · 12-05-2011, 08:02 AM

Nah

**Mr. Nerfect** · 12-07-2011, 04:19 AM

I don't think they count the undercard when it comes to WrestleMania records.

**Anybody Thrilla** · 12-07-2011, 04:40 AM

It was promoted for many weeks leading into the show. I remember being quite upset when they didn't even air it on the broadcast. They also made reference to it, and The Colons were champions after the event. Pretty big slap in the face if they want me to believe he's undefeated at Wrestlemania, unless he adds a "singles competition" quantifier.

**Mr. Nerfect** · 12-07-2011, 04:41 AM

The match still didn't happen on the WrestleMania XXV, as pissed as we both were that the match got shafted.

**Anybody Thrilla** · 12-07-2011, 04:43 AM

So when Kane won the battle royal to get a shot at Chavo's ECW title, was that not counted as 'part of the show' either?

**Anybody Thrilla** · 12-07-2011, 04:43 AM

Whatever Mania that was. 24, I think.

**Mr. Nerfect** · 12-07-2011, 06:23 AM

Probably not.
