There's no Mizness like Showmizness.

 

DiBiase for the Hall of Fame. Well deserved.

 

I'm guessing this means we'll be seeing a lot of The Miz on SmackDown.

I too love heel HBK. I'm hoping and assuming this is all building to HBK-Undertaker Part II. But the WWE rarely makes sense to me these days.

 

I'm starting to think that HBK will get shut out of Smackdown, with Edge cashing in against Taker. Trips wins the Raw chamber and you get HHH-HBK at Mania.

 

Punk has been doing the "I'm better than you" bit for years as a heel. I still think it peaked with his fued with Raven in ROH though.

 

Is that when Raven and Sandman poured a beer down his throat? I seem to remember hearing about that.

 

Haven't watched in awhile, but is anybody picking up any vibe about a Rock-Cena Wrestlemania main event? I was at a newstand in November and kinda chuckled when one of the wrestling mags put that possibility on its cover. But then, Dwayne was on the cover of Muscle & Fitness last month and he looks like he's bulked up - he had lost a lot of weight since leaving the ring and supposedly had gotten down to 215. Based on that cover shot, I wonder if there's a little fire under the smoke.

 

No way for Wrestlemania. There's not enough time to get a Rock-Cena program up and running for then, and they're pretty clearly building to Cena-Batista or Cena-Hart/Batista-McMahon.

But he's talked about doing something beyond a guest GM spot on Raw this summer, and he said it wasn't a Cena match (though that could be part of the worked shoot build). Summerslam would be the obvious place for it. Possibly Survivor Series. You wouldn't want something this big to take place at Extreme Rules or The All No Countout Show.

 

If we don't get a Jericho-Edge match, does anyone else see Miz and Show facing Jericho and a partner TBA in a tag title match?

 

Possibly, but heel vs. heel matches are hard to sell, even with mic wizards like Miz and Jericho

 

Can they go Jericho-Edge just yet? Seems like Edge has bigger fish to fry at the moment. That one might be better suited to Summerslam, once the Wrestlemania hype dies down and Edge turns his attention toward unfinished business.

 

See, I don't really consider them "true" heels. Both are kind of over as tweeners now, since a lot of hardcore fans like both. It's been shocking to me how much The Miz has improved since he first started, to the point where I think he'll get a title shot within the next year.
