I've been watching RAW, but I guess I missed something. When did Taker and HBK become no DQ? Are you sure you were watching? Undertaker opened RAW, Michaels came out and said that he doesn't want a match with so much on the line to be decided by a DQ or count-out... and asked for a No DQ, No Count-out match. Did you get 'FIRST FIVE MINUTES!' syndrome and watch iMPACT?

Well thats 8 matches, and probably Orton/Legacy added during the next RAW. I guess theres room for a divas match as long as is doesnt take up too much time. Michelle vs. Beth, Gail vs. Maryse, or why not a tag match with both titles on the line.

Maryse vs. Michelle McCool, and combine those damn championships back to the one Women's championship. Both women's divisions are bloody boring at the moment, with the same 2 people in every match. There is no need for a Divas championship, just let the women's champion compete on both brands.

Did you get 'FIRST FIVE MINUTES!' syndrome and watch iMPACT? I think I'd remember. I flipped to TNA for about 20 seconds, and saw Hogan was opening, so I switched back. I wouldn't ever choose a Hogan match over an HBK/Taker promo. I guess that twenty seconds did me in.

I'm hoping for, not an overkill of weapons, but a few chair shots and a Michaels dive through a table. If there is a run in by Triple H (or anyone else) I will be truly disappointed.

Really looking forward to Rey/Punk. The only matches they still need to confirm are the divas match and the legacy/Orton match. And of course the last person in MITB. 1. Is there gonna be a divas match? Is there really a match worth scheduling at this rate? Not really, but I'll be shocked if they don't find a last minute reason to work most of the Divas onto the show. I was thinking about it yesterday and realized just how long it's been since we've had a WM without any Divas wrestling. WM13 was the last time there weren't any Divas on the card. WM14 had Sable/Luna involved in a mixed tag match and every WM since then has had at least one Divas match. Wrestlemanias 19 (if you count that cat fight, which I will since it along with Limp Bizkit bumped the Tag match to Heat), 20, and 22 even had two Divas matches each. No thanks. But in conclusion, it's been 13 years since the Divas weren't included on a WM card so they'll find something for them to do.

I mean there really doesn't need to be a divas match. There really isn't anything worth building to, and the card is already stacked. Plus, the only options are Maryse vs. Eve, and beth vs. Michelle. or a Raw vs. Smackdown tag Team match. And there is no Playboy girl. So I don't think we will se a divas match for the first time in 13 years.

Even if you didn't count the cat fight, WM 19 still had a pretty decent triple threat match for the Womens Title.

anyone know how much the ppv buy this year is? thanks! Standard Definition: An arm and a leg. HD: Your firstborn child. Actually, if you have Time Warner Cable, the HD feed is the same price as the standard definition, surprisingly enough. At least in my area. Then again, we just got HD PPV about two months ago, so maybe it's a promotional thing.

Could they not have picked a more up to date song than something by Audioslave?!

I know they've mentioned how the Batista/Cena rivalry stems from Cena being the golden boy and Batista believes it should be him, but what I find really interesting is how it was 5 years ago in 2005 when Batista and Cena both walked out as World Champions. And that was the last time WWE truly 'made' two big stars. You could make the arguement for Edge but he was a case similar to JBL where they took a guy who had been around for a while and decided to finally pull the trigger. Batista and Cena were both still relatively new to WWE, they had both debuted in the summer of 2002 and with WrestleMania they turned them both into stars. So it seems appropriate that they face off now in 2010.
But I wish they would pull the trigger again on new stars and really put them over. Since that time you've gotten pushes like Punk who's been yo-yo'ed and Sheamus has no heat. Jack Swagger, Kofi Kingston, Ted DiBiase...these are the guys who should get the chance to main event.

Michelle vs. Beth, Gail vs. Maryse, or why not a tag match with both titles on the line. Sadly it would probably be Beth and Eve vs McCool and Maryse if that plan were to happen. I think they should have the Beth/McCool match or if Mickie can come back in time a triple threat title match. The two before this potential one were great so I would love to see that happen if Mickie can wrestle by Mania. I do think that the SD divas have been building to a triple threat for the longest time but now with Mickie being a variable to wrestle or not they are making it a singles match at the time being. She only has 9 days til the final SD taping before Mania but if they want to say she is going to appear at Mania or somehow make it a surpise then Mickie has 14 days to get ready to wrestle.

Hate to ruin your little parteh....but you forgot someone. But, I do agree. I've never been one to jump on WWE for not building stars but when you have guys like Kofi and Swagger just lurking around the mid card here and there it gets frustrating.

Wouldn't mind making your Divas Tag Match a Winners Take All Match. Better than a Battle Royal and/or a Lumberjill Match.

So with eight matches scheduled and a potential two more to be added, that will give us ten matches, only two less than Wrestlemania XX had.
My only concern is that WWE is going to have to dedicate VERY little time to backstage segments and other junk, which they aren't prone to doing.
There are several main event caliber matches that are deserving of 15+ minute matches, and a few that need 20+, that's hard to squeeze in when you've got such a big card.
I'm just afraid things will seem rushed and clustered like XX did, but hopefully they can pull it off smoothly.

I guess for some reason, I thought Punk/Mysterio was already confirmed. I was thinking Orton/Legacy in some capacity, and a divas match for the other two.

The Divas never get bumped to the preshow.
