"???" That's Hugh Morris!
ReplyDeleteThey need to do
ReplyDeleteOutlaws vs. Shield vs. Rhodes Bros vs. Real Americans. 4 way tag match for the belts
Rhodes Bros. get the titles back, Zeb blames Cesaro for the loss resulting in him giving Zeb the big swing, which would be a hilarious WM moment and get Cesaro a massive face pop. And givr the Shield something to do
Here's your simple answer on the main event: Bryan gets Trips to agree that if he (Bryan) wins his match with HHH, the main event becomes a three-way: Bryan v. Batista v. Orton. Bryan beats Trips, wins again in the main, and gets the WM X ending, with Cena coming out and shaking his hand and all the faces putting him up on their shoulders. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
ReplyDeleteNo its "who?'!!
ReplyDeleteI could see Bryan beating HHH to earn a spot in the title match...
ReplyDeleteFrom there he wins the title, and as he is celebrating we see Cena hit Bryan from behind with a MITB briefcase and pin him for the title......
In
ReplyDeleteWatch them troll the shit out of the smarks and have them make Sheamus the third guy. Talk about breaking the will of the IWC...instead of Blog Otters, Bayless could just call us Tina Turners at that point.
ReplyDeleteJim Neidhart is in NO SHAPE to main event WrestleMania!
ReplyDeleteToo bad they are so dead set on Bray vs Cena as I could see SHIELD vs Wyatt's possibly in the Cell tearing the house down at Mania. You could even still do the IC/US Title match, have Dean lose it to somebody (Henry maybe) due to the Wyatt's interfering. Adds even more heat to the fued.
ReplyDeleteVince/Trip/Steph whoever has to see Bryan needs to be in that title match to keep it from being totally shit on at this point. I wonder if they got Punk to resign for a few months by giving him Ted Danson money.
3rd man: gotta be a face. NOBODY makes sense from a story wise spot at this point. Anyone they put in will feel like a hotshot clusterfuck.
ReplyDeleteThe easiest answer would be Punk.
I like that idea actually, adds a nice uphill climb for Bryan. And I really think if they gave him an hour breather Bryan could go 20+ minutes in both matches.
ReplyDeleteNo, it's Stevie Richards!
ReplyDeleteSo Bryan is getting audibled into the title match?
ReplyDeleteDDP inducting Jake is fucking awesome.
I have no problem with those undercard matches.
HHH is kind of a face this week, right?
ReplyDeleteThe easiest answer would be Bryan actually, i can see the crowd still getting pissy even with Punk in the match especially if Batista wins but he's a heel now so maybe that's the reaction they want.
ReplyDeleteI like this idea simply because I think Mark Henry putting over Big E would be pretty cool
ReplyDeleteSheamus would make that match so much better....
ReplyDeleteI'm down with a WM10 sort of deal. Bryan tapping HHH out AND leaving with the title just seems right
ReplyDeleteIm pretty sure the third man is the Big Show......
ReplyDeleteOutlaws need to go home for good. How about the Usos in that spot?
ReplyDeletelol I bet your right
ReplyDeleteWhat if they go the same route as WM X where Hart lost the first match and have Bryan lose the first match to HHH.....
ReplyDeleteMy boss is such an asshole, he caught me looking at porn and made me give him a handjob!
ReplyDeleteI guess you could do Bryan but how do you get from the HHH/Bryan feud they are seemingly building towards to Bryan in the triple threat? I think they could do some kind of worked shootish type angle where punk demands a title shot to come back and gets into the 3 way. It's cleam and doesn't really interference with the other stuff they have planned.
ReplyDeleteI have 0 reason to think Punk is coming back tho right now so if I had to bet I'd agree amd say it's bryan. Maybe Cena? I dunno.
Imagine they keep it suspenseful and they dont reveal the third man until after Orton and Batista make their ring entrances and everybody is waiting for Bryan to come out and "Well it's the Big Show...." begins playing....
ReplyDeleteugh...I could totally see it too. That shit would have to lead to the most one-sided domination of a re-match ever at Extreme Rules then
ReplyDeleteIt's gonna he Sting, Luger, or Hogan.
ReplyDeletelmao. Hogan winning the title ala WM9
ReplyDeletethis will happen
ReplyDeleteWould still be an improvement over Batista!
ReplyDeletepause
ReplyDeleteJust like 18 years before... the third man is the least you'd expect... Hogan.
ReplyDeleteAs much as everybody loves Punk, he isnt Daniel Bryan and Punk winning the main event at Mania wouldnt be close to the same as Bryan winning.....
ReplyDeletehttp://www.snarksquad.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/what-the-fuck.gif
ReplyDeleteHHH will be the guy to announce "And here is the entrant..." and he will bust out laughing when Big Show comes out...
ReplyDeleteDEAL WITH IT!....
Batista vs Orton vs ..... Kevin Nash. You know you want it.
ReplyDeleteWarrior will be in the house and he is still in amazing shape.
ReplyDeleteI would mark out if that happened....
ReplyDeleteThere are ways especially if Punk is coming back. Punk could rally the faces of the WWE to highjack the show until Bryan gets in the title match and Punk gets HHH at Mania. End of RAW, HHH and Bryan look like they're about to fight when Punk comes out to beat on HHH, puts HHH in a submission hold and demands Steph to give Bryan the title match. This will make HHH mad enough to fight Punk at Mania.
ReplyDeleteSo you masturbated?
ReplyDeleteYou finally live up to your name sir!
ReplyDeleteDaniel Bryan pulls the "Mick Foley's title shot for his first WWE title reign" routine. Bonus points if they do that armbar.
ReplyDeleteBig Dave killed it on Smackdown.
ReplyDeleteHow Mania will end?

Calling it now. First, the obvious. Bray and his boys get the upperhand on Cena after the match... Hogan of course comes out for the save.
ReplyDeleteNow the killer. Round 2 of the brawl begins, Wyatts get the upperhand again... but Warrior comes out to even the score.
Mega Ultra Super posedown.
Just to sate my curiosity - is the running Stevie Richards gag in reference to him replacing Big Show in WWF No Mercy on the 64? Normally I don't need jokes explained but I have always wondered...
ReplyDeletehttp://www.enfinity1productions.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/wm03dn5.jpg
ReplyDeleteNeeds more titles.
ReplyDeleteI've given this some thought... just wondering on the crowd responses to DB coming out twice. The pop for the entrance is usually there because the crowd is excited to see someone, but once they've already seen them, it dissipates.
ReplyDeleteEven at WMX, Bret didn't get much of a reaction upon entering the main event.
http://i.imgur.com/X3lvD.gif
ReplyDeletehttp://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ma0pw8KEKe1rq9ghh.gif
ReplyDeleteUltimo Dragon style. Seriously... showing up with NINE titles was insanely impressive.
ReplyDeleteI would love to generate that look from her.
ReplyDelete100% non troll post...what if they do a double turn with Batista and the authority? Turn HHH back face, have Orton play the tweener and portray Batista as the heel. Maybe throw Vince in there and draw off the evolution history. It would suck from a our perspective but they could get there.
ReplyDeleteWho cares, the Great Muta is making his NWA debut! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IPSYjZnFCw
ReplyDeleteI would just say the main event is a triple threat with a surprise third entrant and keep it a surprise right until the match....
ReplyDeleteWhen Bryan's entrance music plays, that place will explode....
Orton damn near turned face on RAW just by mocking Dave. I'd say they could get there fairly easily. I'm an Orton fan, and he catches a ton of heat, but I think the fans want to cheer him.
ReplyDeleteWith two heels currently in the title match, I'm not sure who else you can possibly add besides Bryan (assuming it wouldn't be Undertaker). Cena doesn't solve the same old shit problem, and no other face is really on that WWE title level right now. Short of Cult of Personality hitting on Monday in Chicago, Bryan would be the only guy that makes sense. Therefore, it's obvious we can expect an attempted Orton face turn in the next few weeks.
ReplyDeleteAs for the rumored undercard matches, I was expecting Ambrose/Big E for awhile. They seemed to hint at it a few times, but then stopped when the Wyatt stuff started. Wyatts VS Reigns/Rollins is fine and would continue the Wyatts VS Shield storyline, but it seems like Reigns is turning sooner rather than later. Sheamus VS Christian, why? We just had a long Sheamus/Christian match a few days ago. I like both guys, but why do the Raw match if you're planning it for WM? And as for the Rhodes brothers, they vaguely teased tension at the Rumble and then haven't even implied it since then, and I'm not sure I see the point now. Don't really see either guy as a heel right now.
Thumbs up on DDP inducting Jake.
awful fantasy book bro
ReplyDeleteMost important that you left out is what becomes of Corporate Kane and if he becomes a face do they sell his dirty wife beaters at the merchandise stands....
ReplyDeleteHa. I'll leave it to the professionals next time.
ReplyDeleteJesse Baker and Steve Stennick
ReplyDeleteReally? I haven't seen that at all. Not trying to be a dick, maybe you've noticed something I haven't, but I haven't seen even the slightest bit of indication that the crowd wants to cheer Orton, except for a tiny bit when he was shitting on Batista because of how anti Batista they were.
ReplyDeleteMore lies.
ReplyDeleteCesaro would be an awesome third entrant and it would be shocking and unpredictable...
ReplyDeleteA win in the Mania main event would make him and who cares if he hasnt payed his dues yet.....
Kane has to face Big Show best 4 of 7 falls to start the ppv.
ReplyDeleteIt could be like Booker T/Benoit!
ReplyDeleteKane in the Booker T role. I want to see a Kaneroonie.
ReplyDeleteRemember when the big storyline for Mania was supposed to be Vince vs. HHH for control of the company?
ReplyDeleteI'd say adding a third guy to the title match is wishful thinking but since they're making Dave a heel, they kind of have to unless they think they can turn Orton face.
If you're adding someone, the only two acceptable guys are Bryan in some fighting HHH for a shot at the title thing. (Maybe HHH really works on him post-match so he'll be hurt for the title match and Bryan overcomes odds.)
Or the Punk thing is either a massive Andy Kaufman style work or Vince convinced him to come back and Punk's showing up on Raw and gets inserted into the title match by Vince.
Either scenario, you can have Vince set things up. Have him come out and talk up the Network and how many subscriptions they got in the first week, then either he decides himself to add someone to the title match or as Vince is out there, Punk or Bryan comes out.
I literally can't think of something I'd enjoy less than a show/Kane best of 7. Maybe miz/khali
ReplyDeleteI'm basing that on the following... before Randy cashed in his Money in the Bank contract... he did not have a program. He had no feuds for over a year. He'd just come in, beat Cesaro, pose and leave... and the crowd ate it up every single time. Crowd reactions were always solid.
ReplyDeletePeople just plain want to see Randy Orton. I'm not saying the transition now would be perfect... but it could work.
Especially considering even their own writers don't seem to pay attention week to week.
Big Show does a flying headbutt from the top rope, I dont even care what else is on the card
ReplyDeleteFrom a storyline perspective, Bryan makes the most sense if, in the next couple of weeks, they work in a stip that if Bryan beats HHH, he gets into the match. Bryan chasing the title has been the actual story since Summerslam, not Bryan beating up HHH. He's been trying to OVERCOME the Authority to win the title, not fight them because they're the Authority (like Punk might do). he even alluded to it on Monday, saying that HHH has been screwing him out of the title and won't give him the chance he deserves.
ReplyDeleteFrom the perspective of adding a guy who doesn't already have a big match, getting Punk back would be virtually the only thing they could do. After Bryan, Cena, and Undertaker, the next faces in line aren't really ready for the WM main event, and won't really fix the problems of the match (neither will Cena since I don't think people would find adding Cena to an Orton/Batista match to be new and different).
Miz/Khali, Id love that battle...
ReplyDeleteA reanimated Mae Young giving birth on screen for the 3rd time?
ReplyDeleteI was assuming that Bryan would beat HHH. And, after ten minutes or so of the crowd totally shitting on Borton vs. Bootista, No Chance In Hell hits, and Vince adds Bryan to the match.
ReplyDeleteTony Garea vs. Butcher Vachon in an Iron Man match
ReplyDeleteI can't see that happening, but I know I'd be going nuts if it did. I'm a huge Cesaro fan.
ReplyDeleteWhilst disrobing at the same time.
ReplyDeleteThat would make my eyes bleed
ReplyDeleteOf course it wouldnt happen because WWE is predictable and never thinks outside the box....
ReplyDeleteA main event in any flea market in the country....
ReplyDeleteNo lie, if I saw that match, I would probably be turned off from wrestling for the rest of my life
ReplyDeleteIt has main evented Hell for the past two decades, according to sources of course.
ReplyDeleteWow... never realized Julie Bowen was the chick in Happy Gilmore.
ReplyDeleteI agree people were cheering him before, he got very good crowd reactions, but it wasn't like Bryan joining the Wyatts. People seemed perfectly willing to boo Orton and did so, and I haven't seen anything since Summerslam to suggest the crowd wants him to turn back. I'd also say that while everyones current big hatred of Batista might make "Face Orton VS Heel Batista" preferable to "Face Batista VS Heel Orton", it doesn't solve any of the other problems with the match, such as "this isn't really new or different, we saw these guys fight years ago" or "Batista looks blown up after a 5 minute mini match to the point he can't even catch his breath" or "But we really want to see Bryan in the main event".
ReplyDeleteI agree to a point. He was doing absolutely nothing as a face and would still get the 2nd biggest pops of the regulars besides Cena. He was over huge as a generic face doing nothing before. To the real casual fans he's a "star" and a name. I like Orton more than most, I think the problem is that most people like him but don't want to see him at the very top of the card.
ReplyDeleteThe third man is probably a placeholder for CM Punk should he choose to come back. Which he will. Tough to bang new divas if you're not there to welcome them to the company.
ReplyDeleteBest argument I've seen yet for why Punk will be back.
ReplyDeleteThat speaks volumes considering some of the shit wwe has put us through and yet we still watch.
ReplyDeleteI think we both want the same thing. Ideally at this point, I wish Batista would get fed up with the Daniel Bryan chants during his matches and challenge him to a match on RAW with the title opportunity on the line. DB wins, and Triple H comes out... pissed off that Dave didn't do what was best for business. We get Daniel Bryan vs Orton for the title to close the show, with HHH vs Batista on the undercard.
ReplyDeleteYou know both those matches would be collectively better than what we're getting.
Mini TJ: The Black Bart Shoot interview is fucking great. Just skimming through it and he is one masterful story teller.

ReplyDeletehttp://i.imgur.com/z8fhT.gif
ReplyDeleteYea, I posted how Punk would be the easiest to add from a storyline perspective. I disagree that Bryan winning the title is THE story, it's a huge part but the real story is Bryan holding on to the title. I'd be ok with a hhh/Bryan WM match if there's a stip to it and Bryan gets a title run after mania.
ReplyDeleteTed Danson money is an awesome reference.
ReplyDeleteIt's BoD Mania season, show RUTHLESS AGGRESSION to get on the card.
ReplyDeleteNot your best. It's funnier if I'm actually talking about punk.
ReplyDeleteWasn't there talk that Goldberg was coming back? How underwhelming would it be if he was the 3rd guy? Might as well throw Lesnar in that match too and try to set a new world record for longest sustained booooo.
ReplyDeleteThe ??? Is Colt Cabana. Creative has something for him.
ReplyDeleteHopefully a job that requires him to be off camera
ReplyDeleteWe are overlooking the obvious...AJ Styles in a 3 title unification triple threat. Smell the buyrate
ReplyDeleteThe voice of a returning Black Scorpion playing the Ole Anderson role?
ReplyDelete3rd person in the match?
ReplyDeletethe obvious answer and reveal begins with the rise of a podium and the bang of a gavel...
I've read at least 20 WM rumors in the past three months... this is not one of them.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking more along the lines of sweeping the floors and cleaning up the catering table
ReplyDelete"You were expecting Daniel Bryan? I'm afraid I've got some bad news!"
ReplyDeleteAnd then, pending, CM Punk comes out?
ReplyDeleteYeah, holding the title is fair, but that's the thing, he hasn't even held it for 24 hours yet, which is the point. He hasn't REALLY won the title in the way he's wanted to. But what I was getting at is, someone like CM Punk has an anti authority character. Punk going after HHH would have made sense because Punk wants to take down the establishment. That's never been Bryan's character, though. He wanted the title badly. And when Orton and HHH screwed him, he wanted more title shots, not revenge on HHH. It's been about the title for him, which is why Bryan VS HHH doesn't do much for me even if Bryan wins. It's a relatively meaningless match unless they add stips. So what? If Bryan walks out and beats the shit out of HHH, squashing him in a 5 minute beatdown...so WHAT? HHH is still the boss and Bryan will still get screwed. That's why I think a stipulation of some kind (Bryan gets a title shot with no screwjobs, Bryan added to main event of WM, Bryan disbands the authority, SOMETHING) needs to be added for it to really work.
ReplyDeleteI also think the title win should happen at Mania BECAUSE everyone knows how big Mania is, and I don't think anyone would expect Bryan to main event WM, win the title, and then get stripped the next night. It's Mania, that's not happening. But if Bryan wins the title at Extreme Rules, big fucking deal, why wouldn't HHH just immediately screw him the next night yet again?
Like WWE Network on Mania day, the podium wont work....
ReplyDeleteMan, I didn't think it was possible til now to talk wrestling on the internet and be anti-Colt Cabana
ReplyDeleteyeah, i considered adding a caveat about the podium working
ReplyDeleteCould you imagine how batsh!t a crowd would go if Bryan is fighting HHH in a match for the right to have a shot at WM, HHH has cheated to get the upperhand, ready to put him in the pedigree and then the guitar for Cult of Personality starts playing?
ReplyDeleteIf it's the NHL podium I'm in.
ReplyDeleteI've realized you can't downvote anymore. Disqus is going soft.
ReplyDeleteIt turned face.
ReplyDeleteAdding Punk in that match is the same thing as Bryan saying the people want to see him face HHH at Mania....
ReplyDeleteI cant stand him. I think he is corny, not funny, and there is a reason as to why the WWE and even TNA do not want him. Hell, RoH doesnt even want him. He is a bush league performer and $5 Dollar Wrestling is the worst thing I have ever seen in my life
ReplyDeleteI miss the public shaming we could inflict on lesser posters.
ReplyDeleteRunning moves down the insanely long rampway is a long-standing Japanese tradition. Okada busted one out recently in his match with Naito.
ReplyDeleteGood post, one of Hogan's best matches for sure.

ReplyDeleteLOL, I *just* thought of this scenario. No one on this blog would know what to do with themselves*
ReplyDelete*except post about hating on Trips
You spelled Caliber Winfield wrong.
ReplyDeleteWe need a question mark that looks oddly familiar for that first piece of news.
ReplyDeleteAlright! WWE has finally figured out what the fans want.
ReplyDeleteOrton vs. Batista.... vs. TRIPLE H!!!!!
Just search on the blog the post "W.T.F"
ReplyDeleteYou know... I could see them doing that.
ReplyDeleteI don't see much of his stuff now but 10-12 years ago, he could get a great match out of a lot of Indy slugs. I think now he's probably trying to preserve his body whilst still trying to make a little money in wrestling.

I liked when he worked his way up to #1 contender in ROH, then lost in five minutes to Bryan Danielson.
ReplyDeleteOrton/Batista/HHH vs Hogan/Hall/Nash and I think we got ourselves a main event.
ReplyDeleteShawn will once again be crying in the corner of a Mania. This time he will be crying tears of boredom due to watching Orton and his vintage restholds...
ReplyDeleteBut, who will take the pin?
ReplyDeleteWe already had that in SVR 2009.
ReplyDeleteId go for that ending if after the pin HHH exploded in laughter....
ReplyDeleteThey were following the ladder match, were they not? Also, remember Bret had jobbed to Owen in the opener and was selling a knee injury hard, so it was about overcoming his earlier setbacks. Bryan's overcoming odds, but building momentum after the earlier win over HHH.
ReplyDeleteThe other way to go would be to have Punk come out on Monday and tell Bryan, "you don't belong in the match with HHH. You belong in the match with Orton and Dave fighting for that title." They figure out a way to make that happen, and you plug in Punk with HHH and Bryan as the third man in the main.
Flair.
ReplyDeleteI tried to downvote this just to test
ReplyDeleteRic Flair while wearing a dress...
ReplyDeleteAnd the Raw 15 anniversary special.
ReplyDeleteWould he get the Ted Danson plane also?
ReplyDeleteOr perhaps, Bryan is added to triple threat and the winner of that match faces HHH in the main event with the title on the line...
ReplyDeleteWould be awesome. Any surprise "cult of personalty" cue would be phenomenal. My DREAM scenario would be for cult of personality to hit during say a Bryan/Kane match,,the authority gets involved and Punk amd Bryan clear the ring...then BAM, Punk kicks Bryan in the head and cuts a "I don't owe you fans shit" type promo and they go heel with him again.
ReplyDeleteI still remember how you got to choose which team you wanted to be apart of during the final weeks. And HHH's promo.
ReplyDelete"When I go to a restaurant, people don't ask me table or booth, they ask me, DX or Evolution? When I go to a store, people don't ask me paper or plastic, they ask me DX or Evolution?
I'm thinking evolution and nWo just find a way to combine forces to take down the shield and Wyatt Family that culminates in the 6 of them taking pedigrees and Hogan spray painting their lifeless bodies.
ReplyDeleteBut if Bryan wins the title at Extreme Rules, big fucking deal, why wouldn't HHH just immediately screw him the next night yet again?
ReplyDeleteThis is true for any scenario, even a mania win. I agree with your overall premise that Bryan needs a huge payoff, I just think the payoff is more a title reign as opposed to another title win.
WWE: building talent up by having old timers beating them down.
ReplyDeleteSean Waltman
ReplyDeleteThere's going to be a third man? BUT WHOSE SIDE IS HE ON?!
ReplyDelete"I hey what are you talking about Brain??"
ReplyDeleteWho drove the white Humvee?
ReplyDeleteWHO'S BAD NOW, BOYS
ReplyDeleteOrton of course, he takes lots of pins.
ReplyDeleteThe worst part is that you get the same ending.
ReplyDeleteFunny thing,SVR games have a better chronology than the real WWE,when you play Cena's campaign in 2009 you're feuding against MVP,in SVR 11 Cena's campaign is against Orton as he becomes the GM and your Ally is MVP.The fun part is there is moment where Cena and Orton talk and Randy says" how you're gonna trust him,remember his utopian days".
SVR road to WM were pretty hit and miss,but we had some nice Storylines sometimes.

The third man is obviously HHH; it's what's best for business.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed WWE 12's RTWM stories, even though they were overly staged and repetitive, and I think they were the closes WWE could get to a Jessie Baker like story, minus the rape and illogical second half.
ReplyDeleteIt's clearly a job for the Greatest Intercontinental Champion of All Time. Then the can have Warrior do a run in and eliminate Honky 30 seconds into the match.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite of all RTW is the CAW one,it might be absurd but it has ton of fun moments:winning the rumble,trashing Vince's office,ruin Vince's Man of the year speech,The final match actually gave some challenge.
ReplyDeleteJericho's 2009 is fun with the whole Detective story,and this is were I discovered who Chris Jericho was and became later a fan.
We also get the stunning revelation that Goldberg eats chicken (?!?)
ReplyDeletePhenominal
ReplyDeleteThe worst ones out of all of them half to be Undertakers story lines. Zombie Santino and and Finlay, a Druid battle royal. Really?
ReplyDeleteThat was awful.Rey's I lost my memory is ridicuolus.
ReplyDeleteI'm watching this stand up special with Joe Rogan, he has this bit about Brock Lesner that had me laughing hard. He talked about how when standing next to Brock, 1% of your brain is hoping he just doesn't decide to fuck you since there is nothing you can do about it. I know it doesn't seem funny typed out but it was pretty hilarious.
ReplyDelete:: points to BoD mania sign::
ReplyDeleteLol. No, that's pretty funny.
ReplyDeleteI've heard that bit before on a couple shows. Solid bit.
ReplyDeleteBryan beats Triple H, earns his way into the title match, does double duty, have WM30 end with your most over babyface winning the title, fans chanting yes, seems easy enough, nice happy ending, but but... that Marvel Movie!
ReplyDeleteI'm not trying to be 'that guy', but anyone with grandiose visions of Daniel Bryan winning his way into the title match at WrestleMania by beating Triple H in New Orleans is kidding themselves. There's no way Triple H would ever allow someone to get over that much on him, to wrestle (and win) ANOTHER match after going in the ring with the "King of Kings".
ReplyDeleteNow, if Triple H and Bryan have a match BETWEEN now and WrestleMania with a spot in the main event on the line...
I think it's possible, maybe Hunter isn't as concerned with his spot anymore now that he's older and only wrestles once a year?
ReplyDeleteHHH will beat Bryan to work HIS way into the main event 3-way. Which he'll win. Then somebody will try cashing in Money in the Bank and HHH will beat them too.
