[amplifierWORSHIP!]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match?

sure. never seen them wrestle before, so maybe they'll have good in-ring chemistry. who knows, i'm not fond of Lashley but i'd like to see how it turns out.

2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent?

i really don't see the point. honestly if his feud with Kennedy had continued to WM, i could see that being beneficial. otherwise, no.

3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB?

Edge already won it, so no. Orton, regardless of having been a World Champ, has teetered on the edge of main eventer/upper midcard. he fits.

4: Who should Londrick's opponents be?

WGTT would be neat

5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff?

it's unnecessary, but it seems pretty inevitable

6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?

SCRAP IT

7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel?

i miss Cena as a heel, so i'd love for him to go back.

8: Which title match should main event?

Batista/Taker. he won the damn Royal Rumble.

9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction?

no.

10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena hate?

i can only hope.. but probably, because i think even the markiest of fan can see Dave's lack of effort these days. it'll show against Taker, on such a big stage

[bclara501]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match?

Vince makes me laugh, and it could be a good big man match so why not

2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent?

No it is his legacy!

3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB?

Edge does not need MITB, Orton does.

4: Who should Londrick's opponents be?

WGTT

5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff?

It has been going on for too long so yes....

6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?

Scrapped

7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel?

Cena was last interesting as heel in 03 so id say Cena as heel

8: Which title match should main event?

Taker Vs Batista

9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction?

Only for the Crowd reaction/history, a full blown match would be a no do.

10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena
hate?

No But Taker will be the overwhelming fan favourate.

[Tiger Millionaire]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match?

No, it will be pushed too hard to ignore


2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent?

No


3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB?

Only if it leads to a feud between the two

4: Who should Londrick's opponents be?

WGTT

5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff?

Why not

6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?

Scapped

7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel?

Face vs Face

8: Which title match should main event?

Cena v HBK

9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction?

God Yes


10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena hate?

No, because Cena will be going in heelish, as opposed to Cena who everyone saw was being pushed as a uberface

[hypnoticgenes]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match?
Yeah but what are the chances of that?

2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent?
No

3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB?
Not really. The MitB should be used to springboard someone new into the main event scene. Both Edge and Orton have already been there.

4: Who should Londrick's opponents be?
It should be a 4-way tag team turmoil with D&D, Regal/Taylor, MNM, and Londrick

5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff?
Maybe

6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?
If Ashley has to be in the match then it has to be a triple treat.

7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel?
I'm gonna say face/face

8: Which title match should main event?
Taker vs. Batista

9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction?
Austin-yes, Hogan-no

10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena hate?
Maybe

[The Peoples Elbow]

6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?

SCRAP IT - Now wait a minute, if this is for a spread in playboy...and Mickie wins...WE ALL WIN!

[Deleted]

1. No, I won't overlook it.
2. No, the streak shouldn't end.
3. No, Edge and Orton don't belong in MITB.
4. Londrick should have multiple opponents.
5. The MNM/Hardys blowoff should be in the Londrick match.
6. Scrap the women's match.
7. Cena/HBK should be face/face.
8. Batista/Undertaker should definitely be the final match.
9. Don't really care about Hogan/Austin meeting up either way.
10. Batista hate will far surpass Cena hate if he beats Taker at mania.

[edgehead]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match?

Sure. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. I just kind of wish they would not go into WM as ECW Champ and IC Champ because that is taking away from 2 title matches unless it is a title for title match as well.

2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent? I will say no, he needs to keep his streak.


3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB?
Yes. Edge does and Orton is getting better and better.


4: Who should Londrick's opponents be?
Murdoch/Cade

5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff?
Yes. TLC Match.


6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?
I'm not too interested in it, so I would like to see the match replaced by another.

7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel?
Cena as a heel. I want to see the look on everyones face.


8: Which title match should main event?
That is hard...I would prefer HBK/Cena as main event, but Taker won the Rumble which should put him in the main event, so it doesn't matter to me.


9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction?
Yes


10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena hate?
No

[Spankymac is sick of the swiss]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match?
A: Yes, out of pure, unadulturated shock.
2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent?
A: No. He needs that streak. And he especially shouldn't lose it to Batista.
3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB?
A: Not really. It should be about the midcarders getting a time to shine, not dudes who have been main eventers for the past year.
4: Who should Londrick's opponents be?
A: Deuce and Domino, Regal and Taylor, and maybe a freshly debuting Samoan Fight Club.
5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff?
A: Yes. But it shouldn't overshadow the tag title match.
6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?
A: Triple threat, so Mickie can drag the match quality up.
7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel?
A: Face/heel, with Cena as face and HBK as heel.
8: Which title match should main event?
A: In my opinion, Raws. Cena's the franchise player, like it or not, so he should main event.
9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction?
A: No, not at all. It just doesn't need to happen.
10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena hate?
A: I doubt it, but it probably will be strong.

[royboy8]

I'll answer 3) I do not think Edge belongs in MITB. I think he established himself as a top guy that is worthy of a one on one match at Wrestlemania. Orton belongs in MITB.

2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent? No
3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB? yes

[The King of Memphis Tennessee]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match?
Yes, a good match can make you forget the worst of storylines.

2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent?
No. The man is building his legacy. There aren't many of those left sacred anymore.

3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB?
Absolutely not. It would be a waste of a buildup, take 2 spots away from younger guys needing the push, and take away what could possibly be the show-stealer of the night in Edge vs. Orton.

4: Who should Londrick's opponents be?
There are only two tag teams really exclusive to Smackdown (if i'm correct), so make it Kendrick/London vs. Regal/Taylor vs. Deuce/Domino.

5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff?
Only if it's really a blowoff, and it better be one hell of a match (TLC or something).

6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?
I believe that all titles should be defended at WrestleMania, so I say find an opponent.

7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel?
I say start it off face/face then turn Cena heel (i.e. Austin/Rock II when SCSA joined Vince)

8: Which title match should main event?
Cena/HBK

9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction?
Yes. It would've been nice, but I won't miss it.

10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena hate?
No. At least not yet. Batista doesn't have the popularity of Cena, so the hate ratio would be much smaller. If Creative was truly creative, they'd find a way to turn Batista so he can drop the title to 'Taker one last time.

[derrtaysouth95]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match? yes easily
2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent? if he plans to retire in the next year, then yes. if not then no, he needs one more title run
3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB? Orton-no; Edge-yes; or they just could fight each other, I wouldn't complain
4: Who should Londrick's opponents be? tag team turmoil in a HIAC
5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff? no, I want a fued with them and Londrick like Hardys/E&C/Dudleys of yesteryear
6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped? anything with Mickie James is a positive...but add in Trinity, Ariel, and Victoria just bc they are hot
7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel? not at all....oh wait if I have to choose Cena-heel(needs some personality) and HBK-face(one more title run, come on he deserves it)
8: Which title match should main event? Hogan vs. Austin...oh yeah thats not happening either because of ego-mania running wild aww HELLS YEAH!....which ever match has a title change should M.E.
9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction? yeah a match would be nice (even thought it would probaly suck)....one day I want to see a best of the eras four corners match (Hogan/?,Austin/Foley,HBK/Diesel?,HHH/Rock...edit as seen fit)
10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena hate? If he wins yes....if he gets his personality back and puts on a good match like Angle/Taker at N.W.O. last year then no

[Hiroshi Hase]

1: Could you overlook all the McMahon/Trump shenanigans if Lashley/Umaga actually had a good match?Doesn't matter, odds are I'll probably be tuning out for this match as I'm indifferent towards it

2: Should the Undertaker's streak end, regardless of his opponent? Don't care really, but I'd rather not see Batista win over him at WM23

3: Do Edge and Orton belong in MITB?No, just Edge, we don't need this being an all-heel and one face MITB match, but they might put him in there just to tease tension.

4: Who should Londrick's opponents be? I haven't the faintest idea

5: Does there need to be a Hardys/MNM blowoff?Doesn't matter at this point.

6: Should the Women's match be a triple threat with Mickie James, or just totally scrapped?You need a popcorn match, we had one last year with Candice/Torrie, so let Melina/Ashley do their thing, we might see a botch or two if we're lucky.

7: How should Cena vs HBK go: Face/face or face/heel? Start out as face/face and let Cena get frustrated at not being able to put Shawn away and go heel for a night

8: Which title match should main event? I'd say HBK/Cena, seems like more of a big deal than Taker/Batista,IMO.

9: Would you have wanted some kinda Hogan/Austin interaction?Yeah, but that ship has sailed long ago, time to move on.


10: Will the Batista hate reach the level's of last year's Cena hate?No way, I doubt that seriously, Cena was really loathed around 2005 and it'd be pretty damn hard to follow that act
