I didn't think much of the announcement. Taker has been beaten at WM and since hasn't had the same mystique. So there really didn't seem to be that threat that Shane has no chance of winning. Personally I feel if he wasn't already in the main event it should have been Triple H facing Shane for control of the company.

As much I hate to say this I have a feeling that Shane will beat the undertaker at wrestlemania.

Awful decision. I love Shane, always have. He was great back in the day. But even back then he wasn't really a proper wrestler. He feuded with the likes of Test and X-Pac mostly. It's entirely unbelievable that he would be a threat to The Undertaker.... And even if he was. Who wants to see that match in 2016?
The only way this is salvageable is if Shane gets a proxy to take his place in the match, IE Sting or another big name like Goldberg.
Furthermore, it doesn't even make sense. Is Undertaker a heel now? Because you won't be able to pay people to boo him. There's no winning with the outcome. Either Shane loses and is dominated and we've wasted our time, or he wins and Undertaker loses to a middle aged businessman.

This is either a stall to get Cena healthy or a vehicle to bring in Bullett Club in my opinion

I really don't care how it turns out, I'm just pumped that Vince is pulling out anything he can to generate some buzz around Wrestlemania
For the record I love the younger guys like Roman, Seth, New Day, Owens, Bray, Dean, Kalisto, etc. BUT they do NOT generate the star power and interest for these humongous stadiums.
I understand them bringing in Rock, Taker, Sting, Triple H, Shane, and anything else that will get people talking
Maybe this will lead to Shane bringing in Kurt Angle, Sting, or someone to face Undertaker. Even if not, Shane knows how to put on a show, so I'd be excited for that even
The only real star power the WWE has as real active wrestlers is Cena and Brock so I say do what you have to for this Wrestlemania spectacle, then fall back and keep (or start) building these younger guys throughout the year
Way more excited about Mania after last night than I was before RAW

I've always liked Shane and this match will be the main reason I tune into Mania. If Shane gets control of Raw, I'll love it.
For a guy who had barely any training back in the day, he was really solid.

You cannot create stars when you don't pull the trigger or if you bury them time and time again to the old guard. Theres gonna be a time when the Rock, Vince, HHH cannot bail them out. They have to let these guys expand their wings and the WWE has to cater to their main audience to get that edge back.

I have a hard time believing we will see Shane vs Taker. There is still over a month to go before WM and if that was the match we will be getting I think they would have drawn out the build-up to an official match announcement for at least another 2-3 weeks. Hopefully there are some twists and turns to the story leading to Taker vs another wrestler with Vince and Shane in their respective corners. If no other options pan out, they can still go with Shane vs Taker because at the very least we know Shane will take a sick bump or two to pop the crowd.

IF this was the Wild West (Attitude Era-ish) I have no doubt Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Kevin Owens, New Day and Roman with a mouthpiece like Heyman, would have the potential to blow up like Triple H, Mankind, Brock, Austin etc did back in the day. But the way they are set up now, having to please everyone, catering to children, trying to please corporate partners, etc, I don't see anyway that it is even possible to recreate some of that magic that that era had I'm not one of those people that bitch about the current product. I really enjoy it Rollins is absolutely amazing to me. Roman is what he is. A bad mother......., it's not his fault the WWE is unintentionally destroying him. Dean is growing on me. Owens is amazing at what he does and I love his attitude. Bray and Luke Harper are special talants that need to be treated as such But I am realistic. I have been watching wrestling and WWE since 1986/87. I have never and probably will never see anything like 1996 and early 1997, the dawning of the Attitude Era. I watched the building of Austin, Mankind, Rocky, HHH (and veteran stars like Hitman, HBK and Undertaker stepped their game up too). And with these super, super talented younger guys of today, I feel none of that except with Rollins a little and the veteran star Brock.

The product is also reflective of the society around us. So they gotta be afraid of who is going to offend someone. I feel like if they would just scrap their writing team and keep it to like 5-6 people like they used to or how they do now in NXT, the product would flourish. Clear and concise directional booking would do wonders for talents that are currently floundering. Thats just me though. People need to realize the golden eras are never coming back but until they give control to someone other than Vince we are in for just week to week booking. Think about HHH's last few Mania feuds: Daniel Bryan, Sting, Reigns. The one thing they have in common but every other feud on the roster does not: LONG TERM BOOKING. I feel like HHH's approach to telling stories is miles better than any trash Vince is spewing out

Got an idea for Shane v Taker. Taker shows up and says he will not fight for Vince, he doesn't respect him he never asked permission before putting him in a match at Mania. They argue then out comes Strowman to lay out Taker. Basically we get Taker w/ Shane vs Strowman w/ Vince for control of WWE. Edit: I meant Owens not Strowman

Shane vs Kane from 2003 was a bad idea that killed the heat Kane had after his unmasking. With all the stars on the roster back then, they went with none wrestler Shane. get me heated till this day.
With that said how to you excpect people to belive that an a lost 50 year old none wrestler who was off screen for more than 5 years will take Taker to the limit if this match does actually take place. It will do nothing but make taker look like a washed up wrestler who can barely get a victory over a 50 year old corporate guy like Shane.
They should of done HHH vs Shane for control of the company, and Taker VS Roman for the title.
