JR hints at possible god awful Mania match

[Steveweiser]

From JR's blog...

"How a hard headed, know it all Texan is going to get along with a pure bred, Russian is beyond me. If JBL has issues with Kozlov next Monday then we might have our selves an IC champ that will be the locals favorite in Houston against, potentially, a Russian. Who are the Texas fans going to invest in emotionally, a Texan or a Russian? The over/under for JBL's hook 'em horns sign is about a million."

Pee break!

I CALLED IT!

JBL's historic moment is putting on the SLOWEST most BORING Mania match ever?

[Bub (BLM)]

Good god, this sounds terrible. Kozlov as IC Champion... yay.

[Gregor-2012]

GOOD LORD NOOOO!!!!

[littlenaitch]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Metalheadbanger Man]

Please, no. I'd prefer JBL/Mysterio, as that would most likely be a good match IMO.

Or are they gonna actually have JBL act as a face just for WM?

[Pushed to the Moon]

Wow. I'm not a WWE basher by any means but if this match goes down I want a reduction on the price of the PPV!!

who could you really buy in a JBL IC match though? Personally I don't like this idea, but what face could help to put on a "great" match?

[Magician under the moonlight]

Koslov for US champion, so it will be a title unification match at Mania.

[Johnny D]

Why?

At this point, probably Rey.

If Koslov wins the US belt, it should be defended in a separate match at Mania. Hell, he could even re-name the Russian title for all I care.

I'd mark for Morrison vs. JBL heel on heel match.

[Michael Coello]

Hey, you guys wanted an IC title match at Mania.

You just didn't specify who it had to be with.

[vanboxmeer]

This is just leaking of fake storylines that WWE is doing.

[Can you afford to pay me, Gah]

Seriously? This match has disaster all over it. These reasons.

1. There both heel so a heel vs. heel never works and I can't buy either one being a face.

2. Koslov as never had a good match with ANYBODY.

3. JBL is not that great of a wrestler. For him to have a good match he has to be in the ring with a work horse. HBK got only a decent match out of JBL. Not what I call good and this is HBK who can make just about anybody look good. Now what chance does Koslov have.

I mean you know this match is going to be bad when the work horse is freaking JBL. Who face it since coming back, He has not been that good in the ring. Which is bad when he wasn't that great to begin with.

Probably. This is what I thought would happen, and I'm never right.
