October 5th will mark the Tenth year anniversary of the original HIAC and it happens to fall on a WWE TV Night(Friday) now would anyone like to see a HIAC match on Smackdown between these two to honor the Anniversary of the first match?

Sounds like a neat idea, but I've got the feeling that if this did happen, then Trips would run in and blast Taker with Sledgie, instead of, you know, having these two put on a classic with a clean finish.
Not that this would be a terrible thing, but for HBK and Taker to do HIAC: The Revenge, I'd like it to be interference-free.

If it was put on Raw, it'd have like 6-7 minutes and interference galore, so that would never happen. Maybe at a major PPV somewhere down the line where it would make more of a difference and mean more.

No way should HBK/Taker be given away on free TV. I've been saying it ever since Michaels returned in 2002, the two have a ready made feud awaiting them. You can go either way with Michaels or Taker heel or both face. Taker broke Michaels' back and forced him into early retirement. Taker hasn't beaten him in over a decade. It would pop a buyrate for some little single brand PPV but I guess it will never happen.

Well if anyone actually noticed, it was 9 years to the ppv (royal rumble 98) that they were last in the ring against each other, and that was the match where HBK suffered a severe back injury that forced him to retire. Low and Behold, 9 years later, Royal rumble 2007, here we are again. And I know they've fought so many times, but it was NEW! I mean, if WWE were to do this with Carlito and Masters, like, don't have them fight anymore until 9 years from now, that'd be cool cuz it'd be different 9 years from now.
I would like to see Taker and HBK go at it one more time on a ppv. I'd love to see it at Mania, but it won't happen because neither has a belt or will have a belt going into the event. I'd rather see that and Cena vs. Batista with Batista going in as champ, but Cena coming out.

I would like to see it. They have good matches, such as the Ground Zero match, the first Hell In A Cell, and the Casket Match at Royal Rumble 1998. Plus, I've heard good things about the end of this year's Royal Rumble, which they were the last to wrestlers in.

Remakes are usually way worse than the originals.
Considering 10 years have gone, I don't think the match would be that awesome, and besides, we've seen a lot of HIAC matches since then, so the novelty effect wouldn't even be there.
I'm not saying I'd not watch and enjoy it, but I don't really feel the need for that.

I would perfectly happy if Shawn Michaels and Undertaker fought in a regular match. Also, a good place for this match would be SummerSlam, since it is WWE's second biggest PPV.

This needs to happen. I've been sick of seeing Michaels wrestle the same 10 people ever since his return to the ring in 2002.

I could see it working, but only on PPV. No way should it happen on free tv.

Why not? Both guys are better than ever in the ring and still super over. I would love it. Not necessarily a hell in a cell, which is already very overused, but maybe a no dq match but with a clean decisive finish.

HBK and Taker could sit in the ring playing Buckaroo and I'd be happy.

I'd like to think it just did happen, at the Rumble. And Taker won.
