    Edge and Cena can do some good stuff, and the idea of Orton-HHH makes sense with the angle they've been booking with Orton the last month or so. Makes sense why they put the SD chamber as the first match now, though.

    Then again, it could be Triple-H vs. Undertaker in a rematch and Cena, Orton and Edge in a three-way. You know they do have multiple parties vying for titles in these pay-per-views.

    Since Umaga is from Houston, what kind of match does he get at WM?


    I'm just damn happy the Taker was taken again.

    But thinking about it further, Trips vs. Orton makes sense in a revenge for the family thing.

    Is HBK going to retire at WM?

    You know, this Kingston situation irks me.

    To my knowledge - and I don't pay close enough attention - this was Kingston's first chance at a heavyweight championship. Wouldn't you think that, when he's "healthy," Kingston would want revenge on Edge - say, rather soon?

    The two better be facing off in the next few weeks. I'll cast aside the idea of a lengthy feud, unless they keep him out until after WrestleMania (which would be a mistake). But I almost guarantee no mention will be made of Edge taking Kingston's spot ever again.

    Which is why the booking makes no sense.

    I'd actually like something to be set up where Kingston jumps Edge and then gets told he'll never get a match with him. Then have Kofi win Money In the Bank and Edge keep the title at Mania, so Kofi gets a shot at Edge thanks to MIB.

    That's a fantastic plan. Hire this man!

    So both titles changed hands? WTF?

    WFW. I must say I was thoroughly surprised when it was Edge and Mysterio at the end, but they put on a *great* show.

    Orton wins, HBK wins, Edge wins, Cena loses...all in all, a good PPV in Petrie's opinion :D

    I strongly doubt that HBK will retire at WM. Like they did with Flair, HBK will likely be the "spotlight" HOF inductee and he'll have a big ol' going away match or something. I see HBK being done in about a year.

    OK, so early Mania card prediction:

    HHH-Orton
    Edge-Cena
    Jericho-Austin (it's a rumor; if not, then Jericho in MIB)
    Undertaker-HBK (two Texas boys in maybe their last Mania)
    Hardy-Hardy
    Christian-Swagger
    Regal-Punk
    MIB: Kingston-Morrison-Miz-Mysterio-MVP-Bourne (if he's back)-R Truth-Benjamin

    I could see a million lineups for MIB, too, with Legacy in there. Would love to see a tag title match, which would take Miz and Morrison out of MIB, and rumor has Trish Stratus with a match against Beth Phoenix, so who knows.

    If your predictions are right about the MITB match, that could be one hell of a match. I'm expecting MVP to get entered into the MITB and win it. MVP is supposed to be getting a huge push soon and he has started a bit of a winning streak on Smackdown after Shelton Benjamin called him out for basically sucking at life.

    Rey Mysterio was great tonight. Stole the show.
