With all the injuries...

[G2]

How many zeroes do you think just got added to the contracts heading to Lesnar and Jericho Monday morning?

Or who do you think should be hired and or pushed?

Nitro's not at the level of the other guys there, but that looks temporary. If they're leaving the door open for Mercury to come back, they're not going to can him. So yeah, he'll stick around.

i agree with this guy...no flaws here

[MGH]

I'd love for the list of peeps up there get ascended to the next level.

My predictions of who will fill the void? Snitsky, Khali, Mark Henry, and that one guy who just doesn't get enough of a damn push, John Cena.

I respect your opinion, but just wanted to ask: why not Hardy? He's actually still pretty young and has something going for him that a lot of the other midcarders don't: he's REALLY over.

The Rican knows what he's talkin' about here, people.

Those guys main eventing? That's a smarks wet dream. It won't happen because WWE is lame and realizes nothing. All of those guys are over minus Brown/Cor Von. MVP gets booed as does Eljiah. Nitro did get good heat. CM Punk and Matt Hardy are over like crazy too.

And the only reason Cor Von's not that over is because, minus a promo here and there, he hasn't been given NEAR enough mic time to get his character over properly.

At this point, they've got to be begging Jericho to come back. I highly doubt they'll convince Lesnar to come back now, esp. since he's close to making his MMA debut. Now, maybe by the end of the year they can get him once he gets beat a couple times.

Seriously. Hardy is so over, the only guy more over than him right now is The Undertaker. And he's injured.

[Next Level was WRONG]

You know, you could say that Punk is already main-eventing.

[erwxcalibur]

i'd say that any of those first few could be made legit stars if pushed right. they should be just fine.

they do need some familiar names though.

- a lesnar return would be pretty solid and might help ratings.

- a jericho return will be great for the fans but won't really help overall.

- seriously get rock or austin back into it. they both know this is their biggest thing, come home.
rocks can still do movies and austin could use take-the-night off style even at ppv.

So...why won't they main event then?

[Blindkarevik]

Burke and Punk are in one hell of a sweet spot at Judgment Day..... in the Edge/Batista match, the office has basically lost faith in Batista as a champion, so this match is mostly Edge's chance to shine as the champion himself..... Orton/HBK.. with Shawn's injury, he can't be expected to perform at his usual rate... leaving Orton to do a lot of the work.. with him being in the doghouse as is, at best.. this match may get Orton off the hook a bit.... and in Cena/Khali.... they're hoping Cena can pull a good match out of Khali.....

given that, the Benoit/MVP and Punk/Burke are the matches that need to be counted on to steal the show.... the Benoit/MVP match will definitely be good as Benoit has a personal stake in MVP's success (if reports are true).... and with all the injuries lately, the WWE NEEDS to build some stars... and if the rest of the matches involving main eventers are all facing handicaps as is.... Punk/Burke has a chance to force the higher-ups at WWE to take special notice of them.

[01010010 01101001 01100011]

Well, Hunter will be back in a month or two and depending on how bad Shawn's knee is (remember Kennedy's original diagnosis) he could be forced to stay face longer than expected.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Lashley move to RAW after ONS or Batista move to RAW either. Then move Benoit up to main event level on Smackdown! until Kennedy returns (if Batista moves) or move Punk up to main event on ECW and bring up someone (Burchill maybe) from OVW to take his place lower on ECW.

[EvilMasterBetty, Esq.]

If they actually let Punk & Burke go, they could steal the show, but I got a feeling they'll get like 7 minutes tops. They'll give Cena/Khali like 15 minutes and hope Cena can carry him to a decent brawl.

I meant WWE doesn't push the guys who are clearly better wrestlers because they need roided/fat muscular guys like Henry, Khali, Cena etc. etc.
