    That doesn’t really mean much.

    He was no Bret Hart; he wasn’t even Owen Hart and just because he’s dead doesn’t mean he should be elevated to some kind of status he is unworthy of.

    Some people only started wrestling in the late 90s early 00s, so they don’t really know any better.

    BTW, David, this is a cracking picture you found:


    'Taker looks deadly. :icon_mrgreen: I guess he's keeping with the Dead Man persona, rather than:

    You almost forget they faced at WM before last year.

    I think Daniel Bryan is great, both as a heel character and a wrestler, his ROH matches are great.

    Anyway, hope Bryan wins.

    YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

    The Undertaker was my favourite wrestler back in the day and i hated Triple H the most so i hope taker batters him :50:

    Has he still got his undefeated record at WrestleMania?

    Undertaker must keep the streak intact, if he loses it to Triple H then I think we can all see that Paul Levesque effectively runs the WWE these days. I'd never forgive him (although I've always liked HHH) for putting his own ego first because he has the power to do so. 'taker must win.

    Even HHH knows better than to put his own ego before the streak. I think its safe to say that Undertaker gets the final say on what happens with him at WrestleMania each year, as the streak is his legacy and he has served the business magnificently over the past 20 years.

    I remember hearing a rumour a few years ago that he actually chose someone to end the streak (I believe they were an up and coming star at the time) and he actually suggested it to Vince, but whoever it was that was selected declined to do so out of respect for Taker. Great story, if true.

    Not surprised then. Edge is a class act. Can't wait to see him inducted into the HOF this year :50:

    Aye, big time. Long gone are the days of Trish, Lita, Torrie, Sable and Stacy Keibler :54:

    The ones that are there today still look good, but none of hem can * wrestle worth of *, except Beth, Natalya and Tamina (Jimmy Snuka's daughter). They also don't get a lot of time on TV to showcase their skills and barely get any reaction from the live crowds.

    Personally, I use their matches as toilet or food breaks during Raw and PPVs. Says it all.

    The divas match will be rubbish as usual. I would actually be interested in the division if more than 3 of them could actually wrestle. Tamina v Beth would be a decent match, excluding Natalya the rest are absolutely terrible in the ring

    I'm 99.9% sure it was Edge, I heard it somewhere recently. Definitely wasn't Orton and if I heard it recently it wouldn't have been Angle

    Kurt Angle claimed that the Undertaker wanted him to end "the streak" in 2002, the fought at No Way Out that year and Angle was the champion at the time and he claims Taker lobbied for the match to be postponed till Wrestlemania and that Kurt should win there, Angle said that the Undertaker told him that he had never had a 5 star match at WM during the streak and he thought he could have one with him and was willing to put him over in return.
