With HHH now out 4-6 months with the new quad tear, speculate what the new plans
For mania should be.
Everyone was hell bent on Cena Vs HHH. I'd do Orton vs Cena now. I know a lot of you are going to say no, blah blah blah. But look at it like this. Orton and Edge are going to have some kind of celebration tonight. Orton could say that he killed not only the Legend of DX but the Legend of HHH by tearing his quad. You could do Orton/Cena and Edge vs Michaels. |

Do you want WWE to lose more ratings? After last night's debacle of a chair run in, Orton should be lucky to ever see the top of the card.

Simple miscommunication. I'm not saying give the title to Orton but Orton vs Cena has always been the dream match for the title

Hmm, I think Mr. Kennedy should be in the main event of WrestleMania. Some may say it is too early, but the guy is being built up as a star. Not only that, but as a heel star. Have him win the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania, and defeat The Undertaker one last time, maybe at No Way Out in a Hell in a Cell Match to retain his World Heavyweight Championship.
Who is his opponent at WrestleMania? I want it to be Chris Benoit, and in a dream world it would be, but Shawn Michaels seems like a much more realistic pick. He wins the Royal Rumble in his hometown, jumps over to SmackDown!, and we see a classic heel Champion vs. babyface challenger feud develop. Batista wins a Money in the Bank Battle Royal earlier in the night (I think the TLC stip will be saved for tag team nostalgia), and Mr. Kennedy retains against Shawn Michaels. The program for Judgment Day is Mr. Kennedy vs. Batista, and Shawn Michaels then takes some time off before returning with Triple H to RAW (because you know it will happen). As for Edge and Randy Orton? I see them being involved in the program around the WWE Championship. I think a fourth man will get involved, though. I just can't think of who. Maybe they'll grow some balls, and put Carlito in the main event. It wouldn't be too much of a stretch, and they wouldn't put the Title on him. I see Edge walking away with the gold. |

I wouldn't be suprised if Edge goes face sometime soon against Randy. Dunno when though.

Another random match idea:
John Cena vs. Edge vs. Mr. Kennedy vs. Chris Benoit vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Rob Van Dam in an Elimination Chamber World Title Unification Match The Champions get the advantage over the challengers, so we start off with Chris Benoit and Rob Van Dam tearing it up for a bit. Edge then enters the match, and exerts himself on it. Before he can eliminate anyone, John Cena comes in and gets at the throat of Edge (who he would be feuding with). Mr. Kennedy then enters, and picks at his opponents. We still don't have an elimination when Bobby Lashley enters, and we have the first Elimination Chamber Match in history to have all six guys in the ring at the same time. Rob Van Dam is eliminated first, after a Kenton Bomb by Mr. Kennedy off the top of a pod. Kennedy is the first Champion eliminated after John Cena forces him to pass out to the STFU. The ECW World Champion, Bobby Lashley, is eliminated by John Cena, who pins the big man after an F-U. That leaves Cena, Edge and Benoit. John Cena is about to F-U Chris Benoit, when Edge Spears him, and Benoit falls on top for the pin. Chris Benoit and Edge go at it, and we get a spot where Edge is in the Crippler Crossface, and he gets to the ropes, but Benoit will not break the hold. Edge taps, and the first-ever WWE World Heavyweight Champion is Chris Benoit! I need to cut out the weed. |

Just stop it with the roster split ending. It isn't going to happen anytime soon.

I know... Pretty sad isn't it, one of like 3 people that made Raw worthwhile is leaving, and the ratings jump.

Looks like this is true, and it does suck. It seems now almost every year a big name star is getting injured around Wrestlemania time, looking at Batista last year.
And I actually agree with Splaya. I would like to see Cena/Orton for the title at WM, with Orton winning it. |

If it was going to happen, at least it happened with enough time to rearrange plans. Imagine if his quad had teared in late Febuary or early March...

Yeah, or even the RAW before Mania. Man that would have been disastrous.
Since it happened before the Rumble, they have plenty of time to shift things around. |

And since we have almost 4 months until WM, I wouldn't be surprised if HHH worked himself into a match. Even if he wasn't 100%.

He could be the "Special Enforcer" for the title match, screw Cena out of the title, then pull a WrestleMania 9 Hogan and beat the champion in 2 seconds, beating out Nash's old record.

Wouldn't Wrestlemania be less than 3 months away? I think its safe to assume he's out of action for WM, whether or not he'll physically be at the event remains to be seen.

By then he'd more than likely be back doing backstage stuff (and even if he wasn't he would be for Mania), so an on-camera role wouldn't be too far-fetched.

Oh yeah, I definitely believe that under normal circumstances, it is too early for Mr. Kennedy to receive the push. I mean, it is the guy's first WrestleMania. It's just that if the current plan is to use someone who is so far from being ready, like Randy Orton, you might as well bump up Kennedy.
The guy is probably challenging for the World Heavyweight Title at the Royal Rumble, anyway. He's defininately a main eventer now, not a mid-carder. It's just the level of his main eventing status that is debatable. |

Don't let a royal rumble title push fool you. It's good for him, but Royal Rumble title matches are a throwaway most of the time. In the past few years Mark Henry, Hardcore Holly and Scott Steiner have all main evented Royal Rumbles challenging for the title, so it doesn't say much for a push.

He certainly is, I think the Royal Rumble match would give him a great rub, especially if they booked it to have him give Batista the match of his life and just barely fail. Then have him continue to get a steady push and buildup for maybe Summerslam time.
I don't think Khali will get the rumble title shot on Raw, I think we'll see and Umaga Cena rematch. I think after that they're gonna package Umaga and Khali as a dominant tag team that Estrada does all the talking for. Just a hunch. |

If you want to throw out names of guys on the cusp of being ready for the main event and thrusting them into 'Mania..........
........why not CM Punk? Seriously, from the promos for the rumble tonight they showed all three brands in the clips. Have Punk win the rumble and jump to Raw, either him or Cena turn heel, and boom....might be to soon to send Punk vaulting up so far so fast but in the current state of wrestling I say, why the hell not? |

Because jumping the gun is what they've done wrong with most of their current stars. On the other hand, they've missed the boat with a lot over the years. But if they're looking for someone to become a big star they need to book them correctly and allow them to grow into the star they're fit to be, instead of making a mold and squishing them into it and then shoving their new "face of the company" down our throats so much that we regret ever liking them in the first place.
CM Punk and Kennedy can be stars, just let them grow instead of jumping the gun on a good thing. Stone Cold Steve Austin started his buzz int he summer of 96. Instead of thrusting him into the top role, he earned it by growing in popularity, and they did the right thing by putting him in the correct fueds and giving him the right booking along the way, until the ultimate push of winning a rumble and going to wrestlemania when and only when the timing was perfect. |
