Wrestling - Road to Wrestlemania 29

[Syzzle]

A Ziggler cash in for the WWE Title after he wins the World Title match he earns by winning the Royal Rumble is exactly how Wrestlemania should end. It also sets up Jericho to return which is always a good thing.

Dear WWE writers,

Please grow some stones and do the right thing tonight. Keep that belt off of team Part time. You're gonna make your Mania money either way, so do the right thing. Heck if you want Rock vs. Cena again. Have Cena cost Rock the match tonight, much like Rock cost Cena the belt at WM27.

Sincerely, a much better writer.

Exactly what I've been saying for months. If they're determined to give Rock the belt, at the very least have Punk retain tonight, and then let Rock win the belt in the Elimination Chamber.


Another thought I had, was that Rock gets the belt (although still preferably not tonight), and Cena beats him in an emotional rematch, only to have Ziggler cash in MitB and win the belt to end 'Mania

The Money in the Bank Briefcase that Ziggler holds is supposed to be for a shot at the World Heavyweight Title. But they could bend the rules if they wanted Ziggler to cash in on the WWE Championship. But with that said, I don't think a Ziggler cash in would be how they want Wrestlemania to end, but we'll see. 

Ah, forgot it was for one specific title. I think it would fit in with Ziggler's showoff bit (cashing in during the main event of Wrestlemania), and it could really solidify his move from the mid card to the top tier.

Still, this is the first PPV I'l be ordering in years, since my buddy usually hosts WM viewing parties. Also, I've got entrants #11 and 26 in a little Rumble pool I joined. If either of them win, last longest, last shortest, or have most eliminations, then I win some beer

[Dimitrius]

I got a better bet for that, John Cena or the field. In fact, this whole article is great for that: https://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/8880450/a-bettor-guide-wwe-royal-rumble

There's some rumors going around that Ziggler's gonna cash at Mania and win the WHT from Del Río, that'd be great to see!

Supposedly, Carlito and Shelton Benjamin will be surprise entrants tonight.

Awesome. Enjoy.

The Rock winning the title would be pointless since he'll be gone after Wrestlemania anyway. Punk is one of the greatest heels in the industry and needs to be champion a lot longer.

If they do things the way I suspect they will, the three big matches at WM will all have predictable endings:

Rock vs. Cena (Cena will obviously win the rematch)
Lesnar vs. HHH (HHH will win since his ego has to let him get revenge, even though it's a feud no one cares about)
Undertake vs. Punk (Undertaker's streak will never end)

[Zook]

Does anyone really care about The Undertaker anymore, including himself?

Do wrestlers usually walk around outside the venues or around town before the shows cause I live like 15 minutes away from the arena and am tempted to go see.

Agreed, agreed and agreed.

Hopefully they throw us a (good) curve ball.

There is a large contingent of Undertaker fans that will order the show just because he's on it.

In 2007, A woman that I worked with game me ringside seats to an Smackdown/ECW show because the Undertaker got injured and wouldn't be there. I'm glad that I went. I got to shake Chris Benoit's hand two months before.... you know.

You might be able to see some wrestlers early, but I'm pretty sure that by a certain time, they have to go to and stay inside the arena.

[Zook]

Did he blow buggers at you?

[Destiny Of Chaos]

Did he blow buggers at you?

Nope. But Deuce threw a toothpick at me for heckling him.

[Dimitrius]

Speaking of Deuce and Domino, I've gain a whole new appreciation for Domino/Cliff Compton thanks in large part to Colt Cabana's Art of Wrestling podcast.

That Power Uti story was fucking gold!

AMEN, dude!  I'd LOVE to see that!

There's some rumors going around that Ziggler's gonna cash at Mania and win the WHT from Del Río, that'd be great to see!

Doesn't he only have until Wrestlemania to cash in, or he forfeits the briefcase?

Technically no, since he won it in June and the briefcase is valid for a year.

[DebraKadabra]

Ah, good point.  I forgot about that, especially since MITB is no longer a part of 'mania.

[Destiny Of Chaos]

I got 2, 12 and 14 in my pool

Which means I got JERICHO!!!

Still think it's Ryback's match.

[Dimitrius]

JERICHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

EDIT: Nah, it's Cena's though I'm still rooting for the field.

[Zook]

It seems like Ziggler has had that briefcase for a couple years now.

Also, does anyone think Vince hates the name Wrestlemania now?

[Dimitrius]

LIONTAMER! LIONTAMER!

[Zook]

Is he Bobby Baby or whatever?

[axeman90210]

Goldust ftw.

[Dimitrius]

Goldust's awesome! And he looks pretty slim too!

[axeman90210]

I hope this is the start of a build for Cody vs Goldust at Wrestlemania like Dustin's been campaigning for.

[Dimitrius]

GODFATHER!!! HOES AND ALL!!!

EDIT:

[axeman90210]

GODFATHER!!! HOES AND ALL!!!

EDIT:

Still, fucking awesome

[Dimitrius]

Please God, let Cena be eliminated already!

Sandow just do it! And as you're being future endeavored tweet "You're welcome"

[Jaffa]

Down to Ryback, Cena, and Sheamus.

... Go Ryback?

EDIT:   Aaaand Cena wins.  Hooray. 

[Dimitrius]

WWE is going back to the status quo of Cena being champ...

[axeman90210]

*Sigh*. I thought Ziggler had a shot for a while there. Also, I believe I won nothing in my pool (ended up with Sheamus and Orton).

[Destiny Of Chaos]

Yeah, because Cena needed that.

Good booking guys.

[Jaffa]

Twice in a Lifetime, here we come. 

[Dimitrius]

It was a good run, Punk.

[Destiny Of Chaos]

Please God let Punk win this. If only there was a group that dealt with injustices.

[Destiny Of Chaos]

Not thrilled about the Rock getting this spot.. but I will say that this should be one hell of a match.

[Zook]

If Punk loses he should quit. How insulting is it to drop it to a guy who is only going to have it for a couple months and then drop it and disappear for another several years?
