That HoF airing was bullshit. 30 minutes for Harry Doyle (yes, I know, mother
ers), 10 minutes for Gorgeous George, and 10 minutes for DiBiase? Cut Ebersol, put Stu Hart in. Not that tough.
It just baffles me that the year BRET HART is at WRESTLEMANIA again, you cut his portion of the HoF from the broadcast. No sense. Most of the 'new' fans don't even know who Ueuker and George are.
Anyway, WM predictions, since I'm headed out to watch it.
ShowMiz retains.
Hart wins.
McIntyre wins MitB (unfortunately)
Sheamus over HHH.
Punk over Mysterio.
Now, the rest... I think that one champ retains and one loses. My gut says that Edge wins and Batista retains. It's totally possible that both champs lose, though. There is a STRONG case to be made that both heels should retain, but that's just not gonna happen, sadly... especially because the undercard matches also seem like the heels should go over, too (Punk, Sheamus, ShowMiz).
HBK/Taker. I want to say that Taker goes over, but everything in me is screaming that Michaels should win. If ANYONE is going to beat Taker, it should be HBK, and it should be now. If HBK doesn't go over tonight, expect Taker to NEVER lose at Mania. If it happens, it happens tonight. I want HBK to go over if only so Taker can be interesting at Mania again. Honestly, when you know the man never loses, it's a throwaway match. They can build and build, but they'll never come as close as the past two years with anyone believing he'll lose. Plus, I'm horrified for the inevitable Taker/Cena match, or the Taker/HHH rematch. Those are situations where he could lose, but for all the wrong reasons. (Sidenote: I also don't want to see a hokey 'HBK unretires' storyline.)
Sorry, bit of a rant there. Not sure if I missed anything there, but that's what I expect to see at Mania.
