He hasn't lost at WrestleMania either.

Uh, he lost MITB last year, does everyone fail to remember this or something?

I remember it,but i guess they mean that Edge hasnt lost singles match??

 

[Pickle]

they are playing the "never been pinned or submitted at mania " angle for edge. Shame most of his matches at mania have been ladder matches where pinfalls and submissions dont count

I saw that as a miss last year. Edge should of kept his streak alive and won money in the bank last year and then cashed it in to beat taker that night. That would of shaken things up a bit. Mania has become too stale. The baby face wins every match. Having said that Im the only one backing takers streak to end this year but it was many years too late.

- It is likely that Chris Jericho will be added to the Money In The Bank ladder match at WrestleMania XXIV.

GO JERICHO GO!!

GO JERICHO GO!!

The MITB match just got better IMO, he and Hardy had an excellent match. Chris has always been at the top of my list, but I'm really surprised at how well Hardy has matured over the last six months or so.

Jake Roberts is scheduled to be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame next month. Apparently he will be given a temporary release from his rehab treatment to attend the award show.

There are also rumblings that Scott Hall, who is in the same treatment facility as Roberts, might attend the H.O.F. ceremony with Roberts.

Roberts is one of the only wrestlers who openly and publicly accepted WWE's rehab offer, and even sent out a thank you letter to Vince. We don't have an update on Roberts' condition, but Scott Hall is said to be doing exceptionally well and looks forward to mending broken business relationships when he completes his treatment.

I really don't see a reason for the Umaga/Batista match. Don't get me wrong, as those two are at the top of my favorites list (especially Dave). It's almost as if Vince turned around and realized that he'd nixed their participation at WM due to stupid and flawed planning beforehand.....oh wait a sec, that's exactly what he did

Roberts in the HOF is cool, as long as he doesn't go out any buy crack afterward.

Uh, he lost MITB last year, does everyone fail to remember this or something?

The WWE's creative deepartment banks on its average viewer having both ADD and no long term memory; real fans like you and me know this to be true, Chesti

TNA Will Have Presence At WWE Hall Of Fame Ceremony

Several TNA wrestlerrs have purchased tickets to WWE's Hall of Fame ceremony this year. TNA is not planning to disrupt the even or stage a publicity stunt in any way, but rather the wrestlers bought their own tickets because they want to see Ric Flair be inducted into the Hall of Fame. This is a true testament to how much respect The Nature Boy has within the wrestling industry.

There's no word on who actually has bought seats for the ceremony, but depending on who they are WWE may show them on camera. With reports that Scott Hall may be accompanying Jake Roberts to the ceremony, rumors are going around that Kevin Nash may be one of the TNA wrestlers attending

John Morrison qualifies in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match by defeating The Miz in Smackdown.

Excellent

 

[onebigeric]

^^A good replacement for Hardy

 

[Lionheart]

Who do you guys think will win The Money in the Bank Ladder Match?
John Morrison, CM Punk, Carlito, Shelton Benjamin, Ken Kennedy, MVP, and Chris Jericho.
I think its unlikely that Kennedy ,Carlito,CM Punk or Benjamin takes it,IMO.

So here are my choises:
1.Y2J.Theres been talk about Chris feuding with Cena and HHH.Heel turn coming?Main event material for sure.Maybe end of the year?
2.MVP.Seems to get better and better every time i see him work in the ring.
3.Morrison.Most promising wrestler in the WWE.Next HBK?It still might be too early for him..
