I'm stunned they're giving away HHH/Cena on a show like this and not Summerslam. I guess they're panicked over Orton and felt they had to hot shot it now.

Either that or one of them are moving in the draft, and I'd be SHOCKED to see it.

Yeah, needless to say, I was not expecting to see that live. I'd have much rather seen J.Hardy/Trips (and honestly think that would have been a better idea) but, wouldn't be surprised if someone was drafted over to RAW the Monday before and worked their way in it.

I really doubt they have this as the WWE Title match.

[Tyfo]

We don't like John Cena being in the title match in the Palace of Wisdom Dallas, Texas!

Hardy/HHH would have worked. They would have gotten the big fight atmosphere and HHH could have gotten his one on one win back over Hardy (not counting the 6 man chamber match). Hardy's first taste of going for the gold this go around. I think it would have worked.

Like I said though, with them going this route I really have to wonder if HHH or Cena could be on the move in three weeks.

[Mayonnaise]

I am starting to worry that Big Show may not be able to wrestle at NoC. WWE.com say that he had an MRI earlier today because they fear he may have a broken bone in his face.

I hope its not that bad and he will be able to wrestle because I am looking forward to his match with Kane.

[nealo]

confirmed matches:

HHH vs Cena

injury pending:

Show vs Kane (ECW)

Possible:

Y2J vs HBK vs Batista (IC)

Rhodes/Bobcore vs Dibiase and IRS jr (diff partner obv hehe)

Matt Hardy Vs Shelton Benjiman (US)

Miz/Moz vs Jesse/Festus (tag)

Mickie vs Glamazon vs Melina (Women's)

Edge vs -possibly Rey Mysterio or even Batista if he isnt busy else where

[Push R Truth]

Even though HHH vs Hardy would be a squash, it would at least be different.


Somebody wake me when the HHH/Cena program is over... probably in like 7 years

[Ace Diamond]

I've been trying to figure out who Matt Hardy will be facing for the US Title, and while I'm still holding out hope for a 4-person Ladder Match between himself, Shelton, Elijah, and Kofi, It'll probably be Matt vs. Shelton or Matt vs. Elijah. I'm hoping the latter because I can't stand them trying to force Shelton down our throats for the 10th time already.

[Steveweiser]

For those saying Mickie/Beth, last night made it look a lot more like Mickie/Katie.

[Deleted]

If we're getting any four way matches, they should throw Beth and Melina in with them. That way Mickie can continue her reign and Katie doesn't have to look weak.

Just to follow up on what I said here, PWInsider is saying that WWE expects Show to be cleared to wrestle by NoC.

[azz0r]

The way I see it

Edge Vs Batista
Cena Vs HHH
Y2J Vs HBK
Kane Vs Big Show
Matt Vs Shelton
Mickie Vs Beth
Hardcore&Cody Vs Santino&Carlito
Miz & Morrison Vs Kane&Punk (double duty for Kane)

[Steveweiser]

We already know that Ted DiBiase Jr is challenging for the World Tag Titles, and that Natalya's one of the two girls in the new Divas Championship match.

I think the next time Hardy gets a title shot it will be at a big PPV and he will win.

[Steveweiser]

There's a different version of the NOC poster in the new WWE Magazine - gone are The Undertaker, Matt Hardy and Kane, replaced by The In Crowd. Good decision.

[ChitownKnight]

they'll probably do Matt Hardy vs Chavo Guerrero for the US title

that's what seems most likely at this point. I think HHH will retain and HBK will win and they'll make something out of the fact that DX hold the WWE and IC titles.

[Mayonnaise]

Tonight on RAW they said that Ted Jr. and a partner of his choosing will face Rhodes and Holly for the World Tag Team Titles.

[brettappedout (BLM)]

Looks like Hardy maybe added to the WWE title match after what happen on RAW.

God I hope so. I'd like somebody to cheer for during the match.

Me too and it would be smart in my opinion because Cena/Triple 2 should be saved for a big 4 PPV like SummerSlam.
