oh
my
god

POOR UNDERTAKER
He might really have to retire after this one.

Strowman is such garbage as a wrestler, and he's going to be in a semi main event spot w/Undertaker

Vince's big man fetish is ****ing sickening

 

[KaseMeOutside]

the main events of WM could quite possibly suck.

bray wyatt is going to lose yet another marquee match against brock
reigns and hhh.....lol
taker/strowman is a pissbreak match

undercard will carry the show, Owens/AJ/Zayn/Ambrose

 

[ColePens]

What do people see in Braun? Dude is not good AT ALL. He's got size, but he's not like mindblowing size. I've seen that size come and go before.

Does anyone have ANY opposite input? Is there a fan out there that sees the value in Braun?

 

[Kimi]

Apparently he can actually work, he's just not showing it as they're hold it back while he does the monster bit. If he can do stuff, even if it's simple, it changes everything.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

I question what he did in the Rumble. I know what his gimmick is outside of matches.

Lesnar stiffed the **** out of him and learned you sell for the beast no matter what, that's what happened.

 

[GKJ]

I hope Undertaker-Strowman and Hunter-Reigns are the last two matches so that I can just turn it off at 9:45.

Strowman is basically a smaller Giant Gonzales

 

[KaseMeOutside]

there is no way they will do this, seriously how can you risk undertakers health like this? i am not being overdramatic, that clumsy goof could seriously hurt him

 

[Blitzkrug]

This is looking like Wrestlemania 27 level bad at this point.

A bunch of garbage with a couple of gems/good matches (in this case, probably something with Styles.) Glad i pulled the plug on my network sub and put it towards Netflix instead.

 

[CaptainCrunch67]

It would take a half an hour for the first lockup to happen.

Undertaker isn't speedy at this part of his career, and Strouman is slower then snot.

Plus Undertaker really needs someone to partially carry him in these matches.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

That's why I really hope Undertaker says no and suggests a match with Owens or Ambrose or someone like that. Give them a big match and the rub.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

I think I'm to the point I don't care about the Undertaker at all. I dig his cool entrances but outside of that he's a slow, broken down old man in the ring. There's nothing mystical or interesting about that. Watching Brock Lesnar have to slow down for this old **** in their two matches was painful and about where I lost interest last year.

 

[WinterEmpire]

I got a feeling that when he does retire it is going to be against Kane.

I would love for Taker and Kane to retire each other

WM match where they both "kill" each other, and undertaker and kane characters never appear in WWE again

 

[Ensane]

Strowman via ether rag?

disagree i thought undertakers last two matches with brock were excellent

Admittedly, I haven't listened to the episode to see if he said it as speculation, or reported it as it is the plans, but this shouldn't really be a surprise to many people considering Meltzer reported that Undertaker/Strowman was a possibility back in October/November when The Wyatts were working with the BoD.

This Wrestlemania is just going to be... yikes. That match will surely be up there as one of Undertaker's worst Wrestlemania matches.

The only thing saving this from happening is Undertaker telling Vince he wants a real opponent and someone who can actually work.

Ya its just speculation as of right now. Doesn't mean it WON'T happen, but its not in stone or anything apparently.

If somehow it does happen, this is going to rank with Giant Gonzalez as one of Taker's worst WM matches.

They can't do it though. This dude shouldn't work with Brock (which apparently Vince wants as well) or Taker. Brock destroyed his whole gimmick in the Rumble and there is no way Taker could work a safe match with him.

 

[WinterEmpire]

I don't necessarily mean this WM, but when they go out they should go out together. They have great chemistry and a rich history between them

 

[Emperoreddy]

Have Owens retire Undertaker at WM.

They won't have a young buck retire Taker same way they didn't have that happen to Flair or Shawn. Either Taker goes out on his own terms, or gets retired by a vet (Cena most likely).

Honestly they won't put a 2 on his WM lose record either. Think they prefer Brock being the 1, and that is it.

So this idea of Taker wrestling Owens at Mania and putting him over. Even if Taker was on board, Vince would never do it. Maybe at Summerslam or something if Taker is going to work more dates again this year.

This is where Cena's injury really sucks. It was really the best match idea for Taker and it could of lead to a good match with an interesting build. I guess Cena could still make a miraculous recovery and save at least this match.

 

[Balance]

Undertaker can still wrestle a better match than anyone on the roster so I think he can work well with anyone

 

[Emperoreddy]

Taker can still go people who think he can't aren't paying attention enough.

The problem with THIS rumor is it doesn't matter. Taker literally can't lift this big **** up safely. It leaves Taker with almost no offense and thus there isn't a match.

If he tried to tombstone or Last Ride this fool he could legit hurt himself.

 

[Kimi]

I said it before, Casket Match.

You are the local pro-WWE guy and defend a lot of what they do. There is nothing wrong with that. I actually like it...

but there is no way you can condone a possible WRESTLEMANIA match between Taker and Braun. The streak has had a run of Wyatt, Lesnar, Punk, HHH, HHH, HBK, HBK, Edge, and Batista since the Henry borefest. That would be a major let down. The main events of Taker vs. Strowman, HHH vs. Reigns, and Lesnar vs. Wyatt would not be a Wrestlemania card. Definitely not worthy of 100k+ people.

That's an acceptable Fast Lane card, but not WM. And we realize why the streak should never have been broken. The Streak could have sold tickets. Without it... Taker needs a mega opponent to allow people to give a **** about him.

Taker vs Bryan could save this WrestleMania. That's the only match that could outdo Taker-HBK

Even that's questionable
I don't know if DB has a moveset that compliments taker

I think Balor has a nice moveset that could really work well in a match with taker though

 

[OmniSens]

Please no... Not Strowman. Owens would be great, not sure how many popup powerbombs he can take though.
