It just doesn’t make any sense for HBK to beat him.
The time for Taker to lose at Mania is when it’s time to pass the torch like Andre did for Hogan…and that’s if he loses.
Shawn doesn’t need a “torch.” He’s not only highly established, but he’s nearing the end of his ring career.
Although, if Taker is near the end of his (as many are claiming), he may not really care about his character’s image beyond retirement.
It just doesn’t make sense for HBK to lose his fair well match anymore than it does for him to end Taker’s streak.
For that reason, I think we’ll see some interference – maybe from a “sharpshooter” waiting in the wings.

It will definately be an intresting angle to watch. That's for sure.
On a side note, Stu Hart will be the next hall of fame inductee next week. Also...funny as it may seem, despite the Ultimate Warrior's past history with the WWE and his attitude problem, the WWE was willing to induct him into the HOF this year. The ungrateful jackass refused.
Also, Sheamus suffered a concussion at the Elimination Chamber PPV which is why he wasn't on Raw. It was supposed to be Cena vs Sheamus with the winner facing Batista at WM but they had to change the plans last minute. You can expect a HHH vs Sheamus fued to start next week cultimating a match at WM.

Does Hellwig not realize that this makes him look like an even bigger ass?
It wouldn't surprise me if the old man ordered the offer made knowing there was a 99.99% probability that UW would refuse. Then Vince could say, "Hey, we offered the proverbial olive branch..."
Hellwig is always trying to sue Vince for money/wages, etc. and he's seldom successful.
It would probably be a lot easier if he followed Bret's lead - make amends and then make some $$ that way!
Then he wouldn’t be wasting all that time & money on court costs, attorney’s fees, etc. with little to show for it.
Look at Bret: he’s already had one successful DVD release, he’s got a temporary gig to make some extra (decent) ching, his old man is being inducted into the HOF, and there’s another video documentary in the works.
Basically, unless you’re Shane Douglas, Vince is willing to bury the hatchet with anyone.

WWE is silly to. You would have figured that they would have learned their lesson with this guy after they tried 3 times with him and gotten burned. They should sever all ties with this moron. |

I suspect they may have done these last one or two moves out of spite.
Kind of like waving money in front of someone's face and taunting them with, "You know you'll never have THIS."

What kills me is that if you watch the Ultimate Warrior "Self-destruction" dvd, not one person has anything good to say about this guy. Not one. |

There again, had he agreed to collaborate on that project he could have come off looking better than he did.
His refusal probably influenced their decision to portray him with much greater negative bias.

Both Punk and Morrison lost their chances tonight for the magic brief case at Mania. I think these two guys are my favorites right now. But now these guys are out of it. Now who's gonna win the money in the bank match? Punk would have been perfect to win it again. Chef Timmy thinks that bald chick seriously looks frisky.

I just read off the net that Morrison is being geared for a heel turn soon. Ya...Serena Deeb is one delicous cutie. She has that sensual look to her. I have a funny feeling Christian will win the MITB match. He deserves it. He's paid his dues and WWE could do a lot more with him. |

Morrison will be way better as a heel I think as well. He's a perfect shoe in for HBK. He's the future of the Federation in my eyes. As for Christian. He's already Main event status long ago. This guy has been going to waste.

Agree 100% on both counts. I would make Morrison heel and team him up with a dive valet. |

Morrison is definitely a better heel. He works better with the arrogant, cocky attitude he had when he was with Miz. His mic work as a face doesn't work for me.

I think he'd be a phenomenal heel. Have a heel diva accompany him much like Sherri did for HBK back in 1992 and it will work wonders. |

He can easily be the new HBK. If Shawn taught him how to dance he's perfect as the Federations new Boy Toy. |

this guy has all the potential in the World. He needs just the slightest push as a heel and a new persona. He's an incredible athlete with good looks. The Ravishing One and HBK combined.

Eric Bischoff was recently asked on his Facebook if he was following the Bret Hart vs. Mr. McMahon storyline and if he thought it is being done well.
The following is his quote:
"For what it is..yes. Allegedly WWE found out about a Lloyds of London policy that Bret had in effect AFTER setting up this match, and as a result Lloyds of London has to approve of the physical structure of the match. Can't confirm this, and perhaps WWE has "bought out" the problem, but if not..could be disappointing. Either way, I am looking forward to it and am happy for Bret. Going back to WWE in any capacity was the right thing for him to do at this stage of his life."

Absolutely. His corkscrew jumps off the top rop are legendary. |

Where they're going with Morrison and R-Truth at Mania is beyond me? Miz and Show are retaining. Hopefully Morrison goes heel. He definitely has the most potential on the entire WWE roster. God forbid he gets injured. I think this guy is one of the next big stars. |

A little spoiler for the Hart vs Vince showdown at WM.
I've heard rumors that Steve Austin will be the special guest referee in the Bret Hart vs. Vince McMahon match but I can't confirm them just yet. We'll see next week for sure.

If that's true, then what the hell are they waiting for?
They'd better start promoting it.
Mania's less than three weeks away!
