That's the biggest problem with the internet today. It's also the reason why people write cards off before they actually happen.

To promote competition? To show that they "care about the little people?" To try to give Vince a reason to run shows, I.E. direct competition again. Perhaps to try and add a little bit of legitimacy to the business to make it looked at like more of a sport. Right now Raw and Smackdown are just kinda there. When Nitro was on the air, at least they were trying to win the ratings war. It'd be pretty fucked up to see a Triple H highlight on Sportscenter, no?

I would love to see the WWE World Champion go to Ring Of Honor and the like to defend his title. That'd be really cool to witness, and would help solidify some non-WWE promotions.

Man, I don't know what else to say about Raw. I mean, you take away the surprise factor of Jake Roberts and Marty Jannetty and it was, I'd say, below average. Let's look at Roberts and Jannetty though. Jake came out, sounded terrible, and had very jargled words. He sounded like he was either drunk or had throat cancer. It took awhile for me to figure out what he was saying, but eventually, when you got past all of that, it wasn't that bad of a promo. Jake was coming off as the heel, but the fans, obviously, gave their support to him over Orton. I don't know if it's because of nostalgia factor or if because no one wants to see Orton go over UT and end his streak at Wrestlemania. Still, I'd be lying if I said that I didn't mark out for Jake. Regardless of what he looked or sounded like, it was still cool to see him again. You can't deny that he did the right thing either. He came out, cut a promo, and then took Orton's finisher and sold it. I was disappointed that I didn't get to see either a DDT or the actual Snake though. It just seems like WWE is going backwards with Randy Orton. He's so bland and everything seems so forced. His most recent push was aborted as HHH went over him clean at Royal Rumble. Now he's going back to his "Legend Killer" gimmick? Next thing you know, he'll be a heel again and cutting more RNN segments. Of course, dare I say, that'd be more entertaining than what he's doing right now. Marty Jannetty? I guess it was cool to see him. His wrestling attire definitely got some chuckles out of me. Too bad Shawn didn't still have something like that which he could've worn down to the ring. That would've been hilarious. Jannetty actually looked pretty good. Especially during the early stages of the match. HBK and Jannetty both botched their kip-ups, but with their age, I won't complain about that too much. I don't think I want him sticking around for the long haul however. I'm pretty sure that him and HBK just got back together on Raw to show that they're still friends. Now Angle can kill him on Smackdown. Maybe throw him through a Barbershop window again? Outside of that, Raw didn't do a whole lot. We got to see Christian & Tomko against Kane. I felt like it was a waste of Christian...and then he left the match. Great. It left us with two lumbering giants. Tomko was falling down after hitting big boots, and Kane was winning handicap matches. Ugh. I seriously hope that fucking Kane doesn't win that ladder match at Wrestlemania. Come to think of it, I don't want to watch Kane and Batista wrestle next week either. It seems like WWE/HHH (for the conspiracy theorists) don't want Batista to succeed. Why book him in constant matches leading up to Wrestlemania? Why make him sell and look weak for ANYONE, let alone fucking Snitsky. The same Snitsky that lost clean to Shelton Benjamin a week or two ago as HTQ pointed out. I so don't care about Trish Vs. Christy that it's sad. The worst part is that you know Christy is going to win the title at Wrestlemania. If I cared about the women's division at all, that would make me sad. Instead it makes me sad for Trish because she's obviously worked hard. What has Christy done? Posed nude? Stuck a pie in her ass? C'mon. We got to see all of the ladder match competitors in at least some form on Monday. So, I guess that's good. Too bad they were all in throw away matches that were forgotten as soon as they ended. It doesn't matter if they pull out ladders or not. If they get booked into a match at the beginning of the show, then wrestle the match on the show, and end the match on the show, next show, no one cares. I'd be lying if I said I expected more out of the Triple H/Benoit match. It was what it was. A Raw match with very little hype and Triple H going over. We all knew that's what it would be. Each wrestler hit their signature spots, and that's all there was to it. Just seemed like a mediocre Raw to me. Sure, they threw in a couple of guest appearances, but when we're getting this close to Wrestlemania, you know they're going to pull out some shit. I just wish the content in between the surprised was better. I'm not really liking the way that the Wrestlemania card is looking. Kane was thrown into the ladder match, and that really upsets me. JBL/Cena doesn't matter to me at all. Batista/HHH isn't going to be a wrestling clinic. Christy/Trish is a joke. It's looking, to me, like the card will live and die with HBK/Angle. They're both badly beaten up though....

Holy crap. I don't know if I could come up with twenty-one matches. That's more than one match per show since Wrestlemania 21 hasn't happened yet. I loved the WMXX 3-Way. WMX IC Ladder match was good too. Throw in some Austin/Rock @ 17, Austin/Hart @ 13, Savage/Steamboat @ 3 and I'm already about spent. There's no way I could come up with that many matches. Not without having to list matches that weren't really good but had nostalgia factor or some shit.

Man, I'm really disappointed with the direction that the Batista/HHH feud took tonight. I really didn't want to see Batista in a match until Wrestlemania. Same for Triple H actually, but that went out the window awhile ago. I know that WWE seem to like Snitsky for whatever reason, but having Batista have to sell for him isn't going to make Wrestlemania any better. In fact, Batista looked to have been shown up at one time. Chairs or not. Batista shouldn't be needed help from the back! Damnit.

This is off-topic, but I've always wanted to see an old wrestler come in and teach and young up-and-comer some of his old moves. For example, for a long time, I wanted to see Mr. Perfect show up and "train" Val Venis. Then Venis could've started using the floatover neckbreaker and stuff. It would've been a reason to give him a push. It would've made more sense for him to do a Fisherman Suplex. Then Mr. Perfect died. Now I have illusions that Greg Valentine will show up and push down/turn his shin guard in a vignette teaching some wrestler how to apply more pressure to the Figure-Four Leglock. Hell, even if it was something as simple as Lex Luger telling Chris Masters to use the Torture Rack. You don't know how bad I want to see Rick Martel show up and then Rene Dupree start using a Boston Crab.

To be completely honest, I didn't think he would ever win it. Of course, he did. However, I don't think he'll get it back. Not because of how he handled himself when he had the title, but just because of how Vince and WWE seem to be. I mean, c'mon, look how long Bradshaw has had the title for.

The whole time that Benjamin was in the Crossface, I just kept thinking "well, if Triple H tapped to this move at Wrestlemania XX...Shelton HAS to tap." It was then that I realised how established that move is. I think HHH made the move seem even deadlier...since he never loses.

No, that would make the match suck. Why? Well, because Flair would predictably end up going back with Triple H or some other shitty ending like that. It needs to be one-on-one with not tangibles. I wouldn't be surprised if tonight's match-up changes into Triple H & Ric Flair Vs. Batista and Randy Orton...which will NOT make me happy.

I'm a real big Raven "mark" although after the bell rings, he's not so hot. His best promo's came from when he was coked out of his head, but I just got into his character. His storylines were always entertaining and drama filled. Not only that, but he was a good heel during a time period where I was tired of rooting for the good guys all the time. I always thought that he wore kickass T-shirts too. A lot of Sandman comic shirts and band shits. Dinosaur Jr. for example. His on-going feud with Tommy Dreamer in ECW was GREAT. I loved his shit in WCW too. From his feud with DDP to Saturn trying to free the Flock. I don't really know what match to name. I liked most of them, and damn near all of them are forgetable. I guess the WCW triple threat match with Benoit & Page has some decent exposure...but I wasn't too big of a fan of that match. The finish came off as being botched to me since the table didn't break with the Diamond Cutter. I guess I'll say his Bash at the Beach 1996 match with Perry Saturn. No one ever talks about that match, and I've probably watched it ten times.

...the same reason why Batista and HHH will have a physical confrontation before Wrestlemania XXI. They're TRYING to fuck it up. Apparently they don't want Batista to be really successful. The build to this point has been pretty good. The ending to the Rumble could've been better. I also think that after Batista took out H? on Raw a couple of weeks ago, he could've just signed the Raw contract and walked away. Instead he talked a little bit too much and posed for like five minutes. Now tonight, he's going to probably get boo'ed by a lot of people. I guess we'll see though. Hopefully the show won't end with Triple H getting the upper hand physically. I'm pretty sure that someone else here pointed it out before, but Hunter needs to keep trying to avoid physical contact with Batista until Wrestlemania. It makes the payoff greater.

Probably. I guess I could check. Maybe get the date or something. I know that on the VHS it just shows the match from bell to bell. So, if any post-match antics went down, they weren't included.

Maybe next time when it's a different crop of wrestlers. I mean, I love Misawa and AmDrag, but really, they only get it done in the ring. What more can I say about them other than they're great wrestlers? Throw in a couple of people I've never watched, and one subpar/average wrestler and.... I guess I could've said a lot more about HBK, but you pretty much summed that sumbitch up. I'm not sure what title it was actually. It's on some crappy Hogan VHS and it's shown because it's "Hogans first major title victory."

Which is fine...but it doesn't fit in with "WWE style" a lot of the time. That's why people give him shit. At least that's the way I look at it. For example, I was a big fan of his pre-WMXX title match promo backstage with Eddy.

"American Dragon" Bryan Danielson ~ Currently my favorite wrestler. He's just phenominal. I love all of his bridging moves, and Cattle Mutilation is SICK! Mitsuharu Misawa ~ I've actually had a lot of exposure to Misawa. I've never seen him have a bad match. In fact, I've never seen him have a match less than ***. Tremendous wrestler. Actually, he's probably the best wrestler I've ever seen. El Hijo del Santo ~ No exposure. Christian ~ Underrated, if anything. Everyone talks about how Edge was/is better, but I disagree. Edge just has the size advantage. That's all I see. I think Christian is a better worker and a better talker. He CERTAINLY has more charisma. So what if he throws on a lot of headlocks? It's better than trying to watch a shitty spear as a finisher.... Nick Bockwinkel ~ Um. Hogan won his first title from him...so he's important in that regard. Shawn Michaels ~ Always puts on a show. Kane ~ Never been a real big fan. Started out with a crappy gimmick, and it went downhill from there. I guess for his size, he's decent. Nobuhiko Takadaslavenkigetcko ...whatever. Red Rooster Sucks. Yes, I'm writing him off just like that. HTM ~ Well, he got heat....

Well, for a long time, he seemed like he acted like the crowd wasn't even there. I guess he's done the throat slice motion before the headbutt for a long time though. He just can't talk. That doesn't really mean he lacks charisma, just lacks microphone skills.

I think that the color scheme, as Loss hinted at, is the biggest problem. That was part of the appeal to me when Smackdown first started airing. It wasn't red. I don't know what color to use. WCW had the whole silver/metallic thing going on. It worked, because it looked almost futuristic. ECW had purple. Smackdown is blue and Raw is red. So, maybe Smackdown could go yellow and Raw orange? Fuck if I know. A change is definitely needed in that department though. Part of the reason why I want a color change so badly is because the ring looks like old hat. It needs a new apron and new ropes. Hell, maybe even throw a logo in the middle. I think, since WWE consider Raw the flagship show, that it's definitely time for a make over of sorts. I don't know about the ramp going to ring though. I mean, personally, I like it, but it's been done before. Then again, everything has pretty much been done before. If not by WWE, then by another wrestling promotion. Come to think of it, the ramp would be cool to see again. Especially if there was a red carpet going down it. Cheesy? Sure, but it'd be original. At least in wrestling. I like the idea of the commentators being elevated as well. Think Shane Douglas & Joey Styles at Heatwave '98. They were up in like a balcony. It worked. It'd work for WWE too. I don't care about Piper's Pit/Barbershop/Brother Love Show type settings. WWE doesn't really need them. They could just as easily have "Mean" Gene Okerlund do in-ring interviews again. Hell, he could do some backstage ones in front of the pre-made backrounds like Loss hinted at. Like he used to do with Hogan, et al. I want there to not be footage shown backstage at all. I mean, pre-recorded interviews on a made backround are one thing...but I don't want to see Dean Malenko watching Lita in the shower, or Evolution talking about Batista in the locker room. The camera man is there. We, as fans, can't act like he's not. Everything should take place in front of both the camera and the live audience. Since WWE is hell bent on having so many freaking PPV's a year, since it brings in a lot of money, they should set up some sort of round robin deal. That way, the fans know what the main events are going to be well ahead of time. It'd also give multiple wrestlers the opportunity to main event. Say, six wrestlers and they have to fight each other. Throw, like, HHH, HBK, Benoit, Batista, Jericho & Orton into it. One PPV is Orton Vs. HHH. Another is Batista Vs. HBK. Eventually, you'd have the matches that were built up, like Batista Vs. HHH, but you'd also get the "smark" matches of like Benoit Vs. Jericho. That's a lot of matches too. It'd also reincorporate a ranking system by default. I don't know how it'd work with title defenses, but maybe they could make a rule where the Heavyweight title can only be defended on the "big four" PPV's? That would add, at least a little, prestige to the title again. Especially if someone went over the champion at a non-big four PPV. It'd make for longer title reigns too. On that level, you could make the IC title almost like the TV title. Keep it the IC belt, but make the TV title stipulation...you have to defend it. Perhaps not every Raw, but every PPV for sure. That way the middle PPVs would still have a point. Perhaps make it so that you have to defend the belt at least once a month on a non-PPV show as well. Switch it up though. Don't make that match always on Raw. Throw it on Heat every now and then. Try to add something to Heat. Hell, I think that Heat should be live too. It could be a good show. Cut back on the house shows, since attendance it down, and move Heat to a different day. Have titles defended and storylines advanced on that show too. Kindof like how Thunder was to WCW. Obviously it was the tier 2 show, but shit still went down. I'm just trying to throw ideas out here. Perhaps footage can be shown from OVW of wrestlers getting ready to debut? That way we don't just get video vignettes of The Masterpiece before he shows up and slaps on a full nelson in a squash match. What makes this guy so special? Why should he be allowed to wrestle on Raw? Show us! It wouldn't kill a wrestler to debut and lose every now and then. Afterall, these wrestlers on Raw are supposed to be the best in the world. Right? I love "Tale of the Tape." WWE needs to do that more. Add in more things than previous titles held though. I want a bio, like in boxing. Not just age and weight. Not Tazz's tips where he's like "don't get hit with his finisher." I was stuff like reach too. Maybe that's asking for too much, but I definitely want "Tale of the Tape." During title matches, the wrestlers should be introduced in their corner. Like in Japan. Height, Weight, Location, titles, name. No more kayfabed locations either. I want to hear what city they're from. Even if it's a bumpfuck small ass city. No more "from Dudleyville" or "Death Valley." I want to hear like "Gary, IN!" Corner intro's will make sure the wrestlers know who the favorite is before the match starts too. Things like Rock/Hogan can mess shit up. Besides, it makes title matches seem more important. The ref should always check the knee and elbow pads for weapons before each match starts too. Actually, I would mind if after the introductions and ref checks, the wrestlers both shake hands like they do in Ring of Honor. It brings the sport appeal out more. Earl Hebner has to go. I don't care how good he is at communication or whatever. He has to go. He can't do it anymore. Arguably, I don't think he ever could. He has the worst "near fall" count that I've ever seen. It's terrible. He can't sell a bump well either. It exposes the business badly. How about making it so that wrestlers with managers or valets can't have their manager/valet leave their corner? They shouldn't be able to walk around the ring freely so that they can interfere behind the referees back. An impartial GM would be nice too. Kindof like Jack Tunney back in the day. If someone cheated, he'd make some shit go down. A rematch at least. The better man should win matches. Heels can get heat otherways that by interfering in matches and hitting people with a chair. How about instead of an opening promo, we get an opening card lineup like they do at house shows? "On tonight's show...." kind of thing. The Fink or Lillian could do it in the ring. This is a small thing for me, but I always liked how Goldberg had security escort him to the ring. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to see him walk to the ring from backstage, but it made sense that the champion would have protection. It'd make sense for Triple H to have a bodyguard. Kindof like Lex Luger in WCW. He had Harley Race as his manager (HHH has Flair) and he had Mr. Hughes for his security/bodyguard. We should hear Flair spouting off shit during the H? matches too. Stuff other than "you got him champ!" If he's the manager, I want to see Hx3 roll out and talk to him when he gets in trouble. I want to hear The Nature Boy yell at him to strike a leg or whatever. Like Bobby Heenan used to do. Make the manager's role important. I wouldn't mind seeing wrestlers whom were about to get a push, or who were on a losing streak, looking for outside help either. Would it kill someone like The Hurricane to ask a manager for his services? You could even show him being trained by the manager. Kindof like what Hogan did for Gene Okerlund. HAHA! Raw eggs! Kill the women's division. Seriously. Lita is out. Molly is heel. I don't want to see Victoria beat Trish only because Victoria is the only babyface left in the division and it would set up Victoria Vs. Molly. With the firing and injuries, there's only three competant workers left in the match. No one believe that Christy Hemme can beat Trish in a match. Even if it's made to look like a fluke. Chick Kick, it's over. It doesn't matter how much clevage Trish sports or how short Christy's skirt is...it's not worthy of a Wrestlemania slot. C'mon. I think that tag team wrestling should be show exclusive. Kindof like how the cruiserweight division should be. One set of tag belts. If a couple of wrestlers want to get together because they think they have good chemisty, a show jump to try to go after the titles wouldn't be a bad thing. It'd spice shit up. Like, if Regal and Tajiri randomly wanted gold they could jump to Smackdown. Actually, I think since Smackdown has the CW's, Raw should get the Tags. So, if The Bashams, for example, wanted gold...they could jump to Raw. There needs to be AT LEAST six teams for the division to be credible. At least in my eyes. Stop with the gimmick matches. Shit. No wonder people don't seem to care about the TV shows anymore. They're full of one-on-one matches. We should get, like, two or three gimmick matches a year. Instead we get, like, one per PPV. That's like 14 a year! Street Fight, Elimination Chamber, Hell in a Cell, Cage Match, Ladder Match, TLC, Barbed Wire Cage, etc. It doesn't ever mean anything if we just saw it happen. Reincorporate some sort of time limit. Kindof like how TNA does for iMPACT! on Friday's. I'm not a real big fan of 10 minute time limits for all the random undercard matches, but something could be done for title matches. All World Title defenses should have an hour time limit, for example. Maybe the IC get's forty-five. Then you don't have to have the "main event" go on last. One of the worst things about WWE PPV's is that you know when the main event is going to end just by looking at the clock and seeing how much time is left until the show is over. Same with Raw. If you have the "main event" in the middle of the show, who knows how long it will last. Especially if you switch is up. 60 minute draw. Thirty minute title change. Four minute squash. It does bring up a problem though...how do you follow the "main event?" They could just advertise matches that will happen "if time allowed" though. That way people know what else to expect. We don't need another random Owen Hart Vs. Skinner Wrestlemania match. "Go gimme four minutes!" When the bell rings, a match should be over. No more restarts. No more "five more minutes!" If time runs out, the champion retains the belt in a draw. That's why he's the champion. He's supposed to have the advantage. You shouldn't get a restart. You couldn't get the job done. You pushed him to his limit, but you didn't win. Nice try. Next. Seriously. That's why I always hated the Hart/Michaels WM Iron Man Match. Why wasn't it a draw and Hart retained the belt? Stupid. I don't care about a new logo that much. Seems like a hassle to me. They have to go over all the old logos and shit. Get new copywrites, etc. I have a box set of Wrestlemania 1-14, and you can tell that they put the scratch logo over the old logos down in the bottom corner. Just seems like a lot of work that could be time spent doing something else more productive. All main events don't have to have someone bleed! I hate how on Raw you always know who's going to show up. You can tell who's getting the current push. It wouldn't be so bad if Batista got a week off. Or if Val Venis randomly had a match this week. It keeps everyone looking strong instead of knowing who's going to win or lose a match. Seriously, when you see Steven Richards on Raw, do you think he has a shot? It's different when you're building up to a big PPV like they are now with Batista, but throughout the year, they should incorporate this. I'm a big fan of character specific entrances. Like how Gangrel used to rise up through the ring of fire. Like how Misterio has the big jump ramp. Things like that. WWE should do more of those. I'm a big fan of the wrestlers not wearing their ring gear except for when they're going to wrestle. Benoit always looks stupid when he's giving an interview in his tights. On the other hand, Triple H always looks good when he's dressed up to talk. I don't know why, maybe it's because of the IV Horsemen back in the day, but I've always been a big fan of this. The wrestlers should dress like they have a suit/tie job when not wrestling. It just looks more professional and legitimate. IC belt needs to go back to being the old belt. The one that Warrior and Rude wore. Why did they change it? They don't need to constantly update their belts. Of course, since they do, the IC title needs some sort of change. It looks terrible. I'm not a big fan of contract signing in the ring, but I do like when they have press conferences like they do in boxing. A place for the press to ask questions and the wrestlers to do a staredown. It could even be shown as like a special. "This Saturyday night at 10pm, Batista/HHH press conference." That's when HHH could do his "I am the Game. You don't want to play me. I've beaten them all " speil instead of taking up thirty minutes with it each month for whomever the next challenger is. Alright, my hands are starting to hurt...so I'll probably write more later.

Oh, c'mon Sek! She's a chick and weighs two-hundred pounds! She's a fucking meat truck. She's too big. I don't like skinny chicks either, but Tammy isn't just a little bit big.

[li]The Rockers ~ Eh. I wasn't really into them all that much. I was a bigger fan of Demolition, The Legion of Doom and even Power & Glory. Looking back on their stuff now, they did play the role of "small babyfaces that get overpowered but use their quickness to prevail" well. I actually thought they were pretty boring in the ring. Still do. [/li][li]Ted DiBiase ~ One of the most UNDERrated wrestlers that I've ever had the previledge to watch. Best wrestler to never win a title? Easily. Hell, I thought he was one of the best wrestlers ever. Great character. He did everything to perfection. That laugh? Oh man, that laugh was gold! He kicked the ball away from the little black kid! C'mon! I miss him. [/li][li]"The Enforcer" Arn Anderson ~ IV! O.G. baby! I marked out for him run-in at WM18, and I marked for him when he could still go too. One of the better interviews you could've watched. Had a damn good DDT of his own back in the day. I don't think it topped his Spinebuster though. I loved his arm/shoulder work. He'd pin a guys arm behind their back before doing a body slam. Good stuff. I liked the Brainbusters a lot too. [/li][li]Sid ~ I enjoyed his little stint in ECW for nostalgia factor. He fish-hooked Steve Corino. I laughed. I remember when he 'bombed Pillman in an old War Games match too. Definitely botched that, but the damn cage roof was too low. So, he dropped Pillman on his neck, slapped him in the chest to see if he could still feel his legs, then picked him up and 'bombed him again. Comedy gold. Sid is alright. Not a great wrestler by any stretch of the imagination, and I have no idea why WWF gave him a title run. Still, he's...OK. [/li][li]Riki Choshu ~ I got nothing. [/li][li]Kevin Sullivan ~ I always thought he was slightly overrated. Not really a great talker, at least not when you compare him to anyone above average. Same with his brawling. He didn't do anything that a Benoit or Austin couldn't do...or a 2 Cold Scorpio for that matter. [/li][li]Jushin "Thunder" Lyger ~ In the words of Don "Cyrus" Callis: "tremendous." He was the first wrestler that did a lot of moves when I saw them for the first time. I loved him palm strikes and running Powerbombs. Good flyer too. Glad he crossed over and gave me some exposure to his wrestling here in the States. [/li][li]Psicosis ~ Psicosis is my friend Jeremy's favorite wrestler. I couldn't tell you why. He seemed about on par with the likes of Juventud, Silver King, El Dandy, etc. to me. I do mark for an Alabama Jam though! [/li][li]Ken Shamrock ~ All I know is all this talk about sphincter is putting him in the zone.... [/li][li]Manami Toyota ~ I got nothing.[/li]

[li]Andre "The Giant" ~ Everything that I've seen from him is gold. He seemed like a kind hearted man, and I've heard, pretty much, nothing but praise from the people whom talk about him. Would've loved to have met him when he was still alive. His feud with Hulk hogan WAS my childhood. [/li][li]Shane "The Franchise" Douglas ~ I loved him in ECW. I thought that he made a good ECW Heavyweight Champion. Of course, I thought the same thing about Justin Credible. Douglas was competant enough in the ring, but apparently he burned too many bridges in other companies. Oh well, he entertained me with the Triple Threat in ECW. [/li][li]Wendi Richter ~ I hate all women wrestling. Not just North American. Next. [/li][li]Dustin Rhodes ~ Well, let's see. My fondest memories of him are either comical skits, like his Crocodile Hunter parody, or him getting decimated. I remember when Barry Windham hit him with one of the most vicious DDT's I've ever seen in the early 90's WCW. I marked. He did manage to get Goldust over as a character, so I commend him for that. I don't know a lot of people that could've done so much with so little. [/li][li]Bob Sapp ~ Um. Well, he's big. I'll give him that. I watched him in a couple of fights...but I've never seen him wrestle. I watched him knock out Kimo though. Too bad Sapp was winded about twenty seconds into the fight. Not a lot he can do when his first three haymakers miss.[/li]

Eh. Not a lot can be done with the current incarnation of The Undertaker. He doesn't lose to anything. It he was still Deadman Inc. it could've worked like the Jeff Hardy ladder match, only with Mysterio working his arm. That takes away the Chokeslam, Old School and Last Ride. Not to mention it'd set him up for the finisher.

I could actually see a Six Second Magic type armbar working for Mysterio. Especially since a lot of his opponents would be able to support his weight and he could slap it on from a standing posistion.

That may be the best paragraph I've ever read. I'd not make HBK pass out from pain though. He could just tap out after a long struggle. That way it wouldn't look silly when he was tapping out to Angle.

...but why couldn't a guy like The Undertaker, or even an Angle, power out of it? The finisher would be the tricky part. Not only that, but I don't think you want the current crop of WWE main eventers trying to sell moves like Hurricanrana's and the like. He'd be better off with something like a springboard legdrop.
