I'd be surprised. Brocks WAY too physical for Taker these days. Taker needs someone good enough to carry him while still making him look good. His body is too mashed

I think it will be Brock v. Triple H. I still haven't decided who I think 'Taker will face.

As long as he's physically able and the WWE title match does not go triple threat I say Punk vs. Taker at Mania, it's the last and best milestone for Punk to achieve.

There's no way Taker is getting in the ring with Lesnar.

I'm glad Jack's back, I really hope he gets a solid push- though JBL was doing a helluva job putting Swagger over with his commentary.

I was hoping for a total repackaging with his look but I'm still WAY glad he's back. One thing he needs badly... Heyman. He's never gonna be seen as a dominant force as long as he's coming out and talking with that lisp. I know Heyman's got bigger fish to fry right now but it would still be cool.

I don't really think Swagger needs a repackage, at least in terms of in ring character. I totally agree he needs someone to be his mouthpiece, the man sounds like a cartoon character when he talks- but in the ring the man is a beast and one of the better technical performers in the company.

Heyman would be a great choice for him and honestly Swagger fits perfectly in a stable. Punk, Swagger, Lesnar- one or two more and Paul E can form himself a new Dangerous Alliance........aww, now I miss Rick Rude...

What about a heel Matt Striker? Have him fed up with everyone giving him crap so he hires Swagger to take people out. Talks for him, Swagger technically whoops ass and could feud with Del Rio for the World Championship.

Matt Striker and Swagger, yeah that would work....okay that's out of the way....

HOLY F***ING MOSES HE PULLED IT OFF!
Triple H got Bruno to agree to be inducted! ESPN is reporting that Bruno Sammartino has accepted to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, that's huge!

WWE to induct Bruno Sammartino into HOF - Sports Fans, Teams, Stadiums, Page 2 - Fandom Blog - ESPN Playbook - ESPN

Give Hunter some credit, considering Bruno's more recent stance on the HoF was 'not in a million years' and basically called Vince McMahon 'Satan' I'm amazed Hunter was able to convince him. Not just that but get him and Vince to bury the hatchet. Awesome, awesome.

**holycrapoly** · 02-04-2013

Yeah HHH has done a great job with signing talent and convincing Sammartino to join. Congrats to Bruno.

The Silverback is back baby!

**parkerdip** · 02-05-2013

So The Shield will face John Cena, Sheamus and Ryback at Elimination Chamber. The best thing WWE can do with this is by putting them in the Chamber itself making for the first ever tag team elimination chamber match. It needs to happen because after all the PPV is called Elimination Chamber and to only have 1 chamber match and not even to be the main event would be stupid.

A fun theory that I heard was a tag match. HHH/Taker vs. Punk/Lesner. Punk gets the pin on HHH then goes on to talk about how HE was the man to finally end the streak... think about it.

**Undrey** · 02-06-2013

Brock vs Undertaker will not happen, I've heard that they think Brock's style is too hard for the Undertaker.

**weaponx0021** · 02-06-2013

Wow so no title defended it elimination chamber? no wwe champ on RAW? Any thoughts??????????????

No Rock on RAW didn't bother me at all... it's got to the point where I couldn't care less about seeing yet another promo from him. It's time for him to get in the ring and work a damn match on free TV.

Hopefully the Rock/Punk rematch present a reason to make the "once in a lifetime" rematch a triple threat at WM.

**eternalunderdog** · 02-06-2013

Botchamania is back.

Contains some strong language.

RANDOM QUESTION FRIDAY:

Would the Attitude Era gimmick stars work better in the PG-Era or would the PG Superstars work better in the Attitude Era?

**Undrey** · 02-08-2013

I honestly don't know.

Personally I think this would be almost a complete person by person assessment.

For example Mark Henry's current gimmick would probably have fit really in the attitude era, but against personalities like Austin and Rock guys like Sheamus and Cena would have been quickly overshadowed.

The same goes for Attitude Era stars, plus you'd have to take into account that while we all remember DX and characters like the Godfather fondly, if those characters had debut in the PG era they would be drastically different from the characters we know and thereby might not have survived at all.

EDIT: Speaking of the Attitude Era and Mark Henry, if you at any point (during his Attitude run) said "Sexual Chocolate" would one day be not only a Main Eventer, but a complete badass who's return you not only welcome but look forward to- I would have slapped you with the hand May gave birth to.
