LOL!
He sells nearly double the 2nd top seller in merchandise (DX) and the crowd is all over every single thing he does. Look, I am no fan, but I am not blind either. The guy is a superstar. Stop hating.

He's booed constantly. The crowd wouldn't allow people like Austin or the Rock to be heels. Cena isn't even close to that level.

You need to watch a show. Those boos are a thing of the past. No one is cheered like him, not even HBK.
You seriously dont know what the Hell you are talking about.

4Dogg is right Cena was majorly over with the Jersey Crowd. i spoke to some of the Merch guys and they sold nearly all of the Cena Shirts, he also had the most items for sale, dogtags inflatable fingers ect.they sold a shit load of the Spinner belts for 350$ a pop. Cena hasnt been booed since the end of the summer mabey before that the edge fued mabey. and for a ll the shit Cena takes hes not that bad hes a solid babyface champ. not one of my favs but a good worker

I actually caught a little bit of wrestling the other night...first time in YEARS!
I saw the part where The Undertaker was deciding who to wrestle at Wrestlemania amongst all of these different champions.
The thing that startled me was the shape that all these guys are in? Wow! What happened to the fat guys from my era? The days of Dusty Rhodes and King Kong Bundy are gone?

I miss the fat guys. Wrestling has gotten too cookie-cutter. Thats why a slob like Trevor Murdoch is a breath of fresh air.

Any chance of a Survivor Series type match with the ECW Originals vs. the New Breed? I know it won't happen (taking Mania here) but would love to see the Trump/Vince angle here with something like Trump says he can manage and whip the Originals into shape to defeat Vince's New Breed.....something like that...

I really do not think they are going that way....however, someone suggested on the PWTorch board that Trump's big announcement to come and challenge would be to put ECW on the line, and he could be the guy "to save it." Either way, you will see a New Breed vs Originals battle leading into Mania, and I can see it culminating there. But as to Trump being involved....dont see it. Bigger fish to fry.

I LOVE how the media is once again buying into the WWE hype. First off, while watching the O'Reilly Factor Monday, on the crawler on the bottom of the screen they passed off the hair-vs-hair match as a news story. Before we shred FOX for it, I heard CNN did the same thing. And here is YAHOO's version of the tale... WWE spokesman Gary Davis said the date of the event had prompted speculation that it was a hoax. But it's not an April Fool's Day joke, he said.
"If Trump loses, he shaves his head," he saidnews.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070220/ap_on_en_tv/people_trump

I'll ask this...you think I would be happy to see Mick Foley back in such a high-profile role? Have you not been paying attention to my feelings on the guy the last 6 years?

You do tend to follow the company line though. So it's unclear. I believe it will be someone lame. There really is a very short list of nonlame Trump choices, and without Hogan, that list grows smaller.
I bet they do something really stupid like make it Dusty Rhodes.

You do follow the company line, and I don't get boners over battle royales. That would be gross.
I do enjoy a good old timer's battle royale though, just not like that.
Dusty Rhodes needs revenge on Umaga for what happened at the recent Raw.
An old fat slob v. a young fat slob in a match that would truly suck.
Sounds like WM.

Yeah, Donald Trump would make the circuit with old Dusty Rhodes at his side. That will really push todays product. As much of a Dusty Rhodes fan as I am, I would not want him near this match. The fact you are considering him shows you are out of touch to the fed.
There is a lot more riding on this match than "billionaires hair." Its a chance for the WWE to push their product.
Whats funny is if this match ended up being Doink the Clown with Trump vs Tugboat with Vince McMahon, you would be calling to pre-order the show tonight.

Except if you read, you would know that I'm not picking Rhodes because that's what I want, but because you would like it.
Doink and Tugboat would be just as bad as Umaga. Similar levels. But isn't Tugboat dead?

I never would have wanted Dusty Rhodes near this.
And no, Fred "Tugboat/Typhoon" Ottman is NOT dead.

Kane vs Great Khali has been announced for Wrestlemania. This is going to be so bad its going to be very good. Before you all get up in arms, Khali had a great match with the Undertaker (mostly due to Taker) to end that feud on an episode of Smackdown. Maybe he has one more good showing in him.
Also, one of my personal favorites, MVP, will be going up against Chris Benoit, who deserves a Mania slot without question.

I'm sure Kane will carry the match. But if Khali is that bad, he won't last too long. He'll get dumped, get a gig in TNA for awhile, and that will be that.
I hate MVP.

whats the deal with the MVP HAte? his stichck is pretty funny and hes not a bad worker <----- look at that. The Ballin' elbow drop owns all right now. as for Kahil vs Kane.....i cant fuckin wait that is gonna suck a lot.pure train wreck stuff there. so as of now we have World Heavyweight Champion Batista vs. Undertaker WWE champ Cena Vs HBK Umaga vs Lashley(is this an ECW title match also?) Money in the bank, whats that like 6 guys Sandman Dreamer, Sabu, RVD vs Burke , Striker Cor vorn, andThorn (what happend to BAlls mahoney) Womens title match Kahil vs kane MVP vs Benoit(where the fuck has BEnoit been?) I'D add the Flair vs Carlito and a do an London and Spanky tag title defense as the opener fuck i miss tag team wrestling

Sancho, can not agree with you more on MVP. There is a very bizarre hatred of the guy from the smarts out there, which makes no sense. He is very good on the stick, his backstage work with Kennedy was some of the best banter in wrestling these past few months. He is NOT a bad wrestler. When I started reading all this negative crap about him although I liked his work, I started watching his matches even closer looking for "flaws." He more than held his own in just about every match I have seen him, not even looking out of place in the few Smackdown vs Raw main event matches the last few months.
I would also add Carlito and Flair to Mania. I have a feeling MNM are going to end up with the Raw titles in the next couple of weeks, and will battle the Smackdown tag champs in a title vs title match. That is what I would do, make one tag title, and have the champs work on both shows because of the dearth of tag teams out there. Especially now that it is confirmed that talent from all 3 brands will be on every PPV going forward.
