That's a feud I'd like to see again. Besides the 2007-2008 Royal Rumbles, the two of them haven't really done anything decent together for over 10 years. Their Casket matches and Hell in the Cell (I got to see that in person, and was like "who the fuck is that?" when Kane came out, since I hadn't started watching Raw until after) were pretty epic. They're the two longest-running performers the WWE has, and are STILL generating a lot of fanbase and can still preform pretty well. It's only fitting they have a WM match to re-live old times. The hype alone would make it a great match, imo. "Mr. Wrestlemania" vs. "The Streak". Seems solid to me.

I'd like to see that, but if they remove JBL it's going to be hard to involve him in a new feud before WM. I'm also not expecting HBK to pin JBL twice in a row.

Meh, i'm not sure how to feel about WM25 so far... HHH/Orton, could be good but there last feud ended pretty poorly. Edge/Cena, has potential i guess but I can see it going bady and HBK/JBL/Taker triple threat, anything with JBL in it is going to put me to sleep.

Really seems like they're just rehashing old feuds instead of trying to move forward at the moment, I guess there's no way around it when you have a limited number of stars but it's disapointing that WM25 doesn't have an original main event.

I have to agree with a lot of these points. I'm not thrilled about Orton/HHH especially since trips has to go back to raw cause he's an attention whore. Cena/Edge I've seen it enough and I'm sick of seeing them put over Cena instead of Edge. I'm also incredibly bored with HBK. His feuds are stale and every match is almost the same with him. I really don't want to see him vs taker at WM, nor do I wanna see JBL vs. taker at WM either. I guess the only match I'm really looking forward to is Christian vs. Swagger. lol

Yeah, HHH/Orton is overplayed, as is Cena/Edge. I think HBK is still somewhat entertaining. As far as an opponent for Taker goes at WM though, who else is there really left who hasn't fought him there already? I'll be pissed if they make it Big Show vs. Taker. Their feuds are not good at all. They might put Kozlov against him, since Taker handed Kozlov his first pinfall. That might be an interesting WM match. And Christian definitely needs to win the ECW title from Swagger. He's already getting a bigger push than Hardy did when he came back from TNA.
 
Well according to PWMania.com, it's apparently already confirmed that it'll be HBK vs. Taker for WM25. I guess we'll see.
 
Apparently it will be Taker/Umaga at Saturday Nights Main Event a couple of weeks before WM but I guess that's just a filler feud to keep him busy on Friday nights until April.

Blech, This is not going to be a good WM. =(

I disagree, while HBK is past his prime, and he's less than impressive in most of his matches now I think this could be a great match for him. I really hope he pulls out all the stops and makes this one to remember because he's still capable of that and while he can't do it week in, week out anymore this is the perfect opertunity to go that extra distance to satisfy fans 1 more time.
 


One of the better promos I've seen in a while.
 
Funny article Mark Madden wrote on Hulk Hogan

YOUR PANTS ARE ON FIRE, BROTHER

Hulk Hogan has lied his way through life, and to great effect when it comes to money and notoriety. But Hogan hit the pinnacle of 55 glorious years of deceit when he told the Los Angeles Times that he was considered for the lead role in "The Wrestler" before it was given to Mickey Rourke.

Darren Aronofsky is a wrestling fan, but given Hogan’s performances in "No Holds Barred," "Mr. Nanny" and "Suburban Commando," it’s impossible to believe that such an accomplished producer/director looked at Hogan for a role that required playing someone other than himself.

From "Rocky III" through "Muppets from Space," all Hogan has ever really done is play himself, and that’s dandy by him. There’s never been a more compelling character as far as Hogan is concerned.

Had Hogan played Randy The Ram, he would have doubtless played the creative-control card to change a few things:

* Instead of juicing his hand when he waited on that old lady at the deli counter, he would have press-slammed her into the olive loaf, then leg-dropped her in the middle of the potato salad. And she would have been played by Ric Flair.
* His daughter Brooke would have played Cassidy.
* He wouldn’t have sold the heart attack.
* Instead of "Sweet Child O' Mine," his entrance music for the final match would have been "Real American" covered by W. Axl Rose, with Jimmy Hart producing. Hart would have brought it in on time and under budget.
* Ed Leslie would have bought The Ram’s steroids for him.

Just watching random older videos ago. Kane used to be so badass, just listen to the pop when he makes his entrance after 3:50~

Oh man that clip was awesome. Boy do I miss the olden days sometimes. Superstars these days lack so much. They're all about trying to make themselves the next Ric Flair but failing horrible. It's times like this when we need more Skinners and Doinks.
 
got love PG WWE *sarcasm*

With lines like JBL is poopy, not mention the repetitive and predictable promos/matches.
