It's garbage. Everything involved with it now just feels forced. Taker and HHH just stared at it completely eliminating the need for a promo.
It's all stupid.

I disagree. I like the way that was done. There was no need for words.

I think it's cheesy, but whatever, it's wrestling.

I laughed like crazy when Taker looked at the sign. I was thinking this was going through his head:
"What are you looking at, Hunter? Oh, Wrestlemania! Is that coming up shortly? Looks like I need to make some plans, as do you."
*slowly starts looking at HHH*
"Do you want to fight me at Wrestlemania? I think that could be pretty damn good. Then again, we did face off at Wrestlemania 17. No need to do it again."
*Smirks and starts to walk away. Stops at the ropes and turns around quickly*
"Okay, we can wrestle!"

I enjoyed the staredown because I just could not stop laughing.

What their pose meant was "If you ham-n-eggers want to see us actually get physical, you gotta pay us".

Anything that gets HHH to talk less is a gift from the heavens.

ya it's getting old when it's the same shot like 20 times every year, everything about Wrestlemania just seems so forced and predictable now.

I agree that I'm really tired of the whole "stare in each others face, then stare at the marquee". I don't even watch WWE that much anymore, I can only imagine how sick of it the people who watch every week are.

Where is that "The Rock is returning and calling out Cena and Miz" thread? I swear I saw it like a month ago.

Play a drinking game with it. You'll end up on the floor by the second hour.

I usually hate it when they hotshot a program with no build just because it's WM. But for whatever reason, I'm not hating this program at all. That said, they should have had a promo tonight, at least from Trips, to explain why he wants this match - instead of just coming out, staring at the sign, crotch-chopping, and leaving. Give me a story. You only have six weeks, so nobody should be staying silent at this point, ESPECIALLY if they're going with the rumored stip.
