Notice that JR was not speaking in absolutes. Every time he mentioned Taker/Cena, he used terms like "apparently". It's still Taker/Bastista, IMO. This was just a swerve to get people to watch SD and to keep them guessing. One of vince's better ideas in quite a while, too. I like it. I'd think this too if it wasnt reported before Raw that they'd changed Cena's Title defense significantly and that it would affect other parts of Wrestlemania too.

Why is no one mentioning 'Taker's ability to not only go after the WWE Championship, the WWE World Title, the ECW Title, but the WWE Woman's title? I mean, he does have the opportunity to go after that title right? If Chyna can be I-C champ, then 'Taker deserves equal rights to be Woman's champ.

I wonder if Taker is going to do that tomorrow as well, to keep people confused. The women's title is more prestigious than the ECW title. Maybe Taker will come up from the floor during a Mickie James match? Hey, Shawn said Taker has his pick of ANY title!

WAY too many people have gotten that Triple Crown too quickly. And this makes Benoit, Batista and Cena becoming double champs for no good reason in recent memory.

Just once, I'd like to see someone from Raw win and challenge for Smackdown's Title.

I never believe anything I read on those "newz" sites, even the "reputable" ones. Half the time, they're making at best educated guesses (if not outright making it up) which make them look semi-intelligent when they guess right and complete idiots when they're wrong.

I mean, they could've put Cryme Tyme, who were the number 1 contenders, over huge by having them beat two former world champions who are also the brands top heels for the belts
If they want to build a tag division...maybe it could still happen, I dunno

It's like everything that made Benoit's reign so amazing is being forgotten/duplicated.

Yeah, thats the case some of the time. But then the fact they report a big major change to Wrestlemania, and then bam, theres a big swerve at Raw... we'll see.
