Mick Foley, hardcore legend. Edge, hardcore pain-in-the-ass. Credit to Mick, for having busted his head open on numerous occasions, got half his right ear torn out, has tooth missing, has a thumbtack in his head, nose broken etc etc. That makes him, hardcore. But his success rate, hmm. Questionable. He's lost every single WrestleMania since the turn of the century.
No point being credited such status, when you've carried the World title only three times, and been a perennial loser. To me, he has lost it. Edge, to win. Hands down. Send him back to retirement, I say!
This should be pretty easy. C'mon, his success rate at the event stands at 13-0. Casket Match, Wrestlemania, Undertaker = 14-0.
This match would make for good viewing. Why? Because there are LADDERS, and you can expect bodies flying all over. The high-flying acrobatics by RVD and Shelton Benjamin, the old-skool wrestling techniques by Flair and Finley, Matt Hardy's experience with ladders and the unpredictable Bobby Lashley, a good mix!
Tough call, but I'd pick Lashley. He seems to be dark horse thus far.
For weeks, McMahon's been Shawn's scrouge. Costing him victories, humiliations and such. This time, no holds barred seems the best way to settle the score. There would be interference, but I'd hold out for a HBK victory. The Show-stopper's gonna pull the plugs on this one, that's for sure.
One of the two World Championships on the line. Triple threat. Rey Mysterio would probably be fired up to win it, just for the late great Eddie Guerrero. Kurt Angle has become quite a face character in the industry, Randy Orton the popular heel.
I'd like the Legend Killer to win this, since everyone else seems to be rooting for Kurt to defend, or Rey to win his first ever World Title. Batista's coming back, and who better than Randy Orton, to face him for the World Heavyweight Title eh? RKO!!!
The hype for this match, has been off-the-roof. Triple H probably did the smartest thing, by marrying Stephanie McMahon. I mean, think about it. She's the Chairman's daughter, and she'd definitely push her husband for all the key titles. He's a far cry from that dude in King of the Ring, who bowed his way to the ring.
Would the King of Kings return to his throne? The advertising, and hype surrounding this match seems to point to that conclusion. John Cena, to me, got lucky having stood as Champ for this long. On numerous occasions, I was hoping he'd lose the title, and just when you thought he lost it to Edge, he got it back again. Knn.
Big event, huge promo leading up to the match. King of Kings, WILL return to his throne, on WrestleManiaXXII.
