What if Taker ends up siding with Shane and Vince needs to find someone new to find on his behalf, making the match Taker vs Vince's guy. Would be good. Vince can use Sting. Won't happen though. WWE seem opposed to giving us dream matches that will make them money. |

Does anyone know if there are Templates for those Match Up Screens(Background only without Renders and Text)?

Whether or not he actually ends up fighting Taker, I'm just excited that Shane O'Mac is back!

It makes absolutely no sense and I very much doubt it's going to happen.

Would of been better if it was Shane vs HHH makes way more sense but I'll be happy to see Taker vs Shane in HIAC.
Why didn't Undertaker address anyone?

I just don't know how long they plan on using Taker every year.
The streak is over, but yet he keeps going.
I was going to bet that he would ride out into the sunset at Mania in Texas, but now that that last match would be against Shane (which was a fantastic return) I'm not very sure on that. The fact that Sting and Cena are both out, I guess no one else is worthy for Taker?
I don't know, it's a day later and I'm still picking my jaw up off the floor.
Also, the general question everyone seems to be having. Why would Taker want to help Vince? I hope we get to see Taker dishing out some answers on Raw.

I was super hyped seeing Shane, and loved where it was going until they made the match with Undertaker. It made no sense for Shane to accept it. It makes no sense for Undertaker to even want to do it. They are both old, and this would have been questionable even in their heyday. Kayfabe wise there is no way Shane could beat him short of massive interference. But why would people want to interfere against the Undertaker? The faces should want Shane to win, but also why would they want to screw Undertaker? Kayfabe wise booking them against each other makes no sense. That's my issue with it, along with the fact that the match will be pretty crappy with Shane taking a few crazy bumps.

It could work or it could be a complete disaster.

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. Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Kane and Austin too |

This is gonna be awful, bret hart v McMahon awful.. I don't understand why they don't just give Goldberg a boat load of money to come back. Shane is a better worker than Goldberg...... |

Let me preface with this with saying that I have never been a fan of ABA Undertaker. I've always liked Deadman Undertaker much better.
However, I see the following working pretty well:
Sometime in the next few weeks, Vince and Shane get into a shoving match, or whatever. Vince ends up on his butt, and just before Shane can lay into him, GONG and lights out...
A few seconds later, the lights come back up and nothing has changed. Everyone looks around for a few seconds, confused.
Then... VROOM.
We hear a bike crank up and "Dead Man Walking" starts playing. ABA Undertaker rides to the ring, chokeslams the bejeezus out of Shane, then helps Vince up to his feet to end Raw.

I'd much rather see this than Taker vs Sting or Goldberg.

Anybody still leeching on to the possibility of this becoming Undertaker vs John Cena needs to let go. This wouldn't have been made a Hell in a Cell had it not been set in stone, and they could much easily of just had this Award directly set up Taker vs Cena rather than getting Shane involved and making it all a big mess. Still, I'm shocked my this decision, iit's literally like one of those random storylines you'd get on Career Mode on the PlayStation game back in the day, and I can't say that I'm not gutted I no longer have my tickets. While it is one painfully obvious Hail Mary, it's definitely going to be much more entertaining that a standard Undertaker vs Kevin Owens or Chris Jericho match would have been. At 50 years old we aren't going to get 5 star classics anymore from Taker, and with Shane's history it allows room for pure entertainment. The Cell brings intrigue, who will interfere, will Shane take a silly bump off of the roof, and who will actually win this? Will Sting play a part? I definitely have some gripes with it though, as Shane is essentially the face in this equation. How can the Texas crowd not want to be behind Undertaker when his career is realistically at risk if he loses, yet we are supposed to be backing Shane since the future of the company is in his hands. Will Taker make some sort of deal with the devil? The match on paper has so much potential but they have absolutely booked themselves into a corner with it. I'm incredibly intrigued to see how Undertaker fits into this puzzle. I'll be absolutely baffled if they have Undertaker lose to Shane McMahon though, especially through some screwy finish. Ideally Undertaker's next loss should result theoretically as the end of his Career. Going out 22-2 to Shane McMahon in a Match that wasn't even thought upon until 6 weeks prior to Wrestlemania would be a terrible way to go. Completely disagree & def think this is gonna end up with Cena fighting for Shane to help end Authority, perfect way to have Cena go over Taker & actually have him be cheered for aligning with Shane & ending Authority |

Interesting match. One that excites me more than Undertaker vs Strowman, or Sting, or Goldberg, or any other guy mentioned. Can't wait to see how this story plays out. I imagine Taker will turn down the match originally before Shane forces him into it.

I'll enjoy watching Taker vs Shane, Taker vs Cena, Taker vs Roman, whatever. Mania is Mania and is always fun to sit down and watch live.

I don't know if Shane/Taker is going to happen but Shane is screwing Roman out of the title at Wrestlemania

I'm sorry...
But I can think of ZERO people that have sat there and thought "Man! Wouldn't it be cool if Shane McMahon came back".
He was ok back in the day, but does anybody even care anymore. On the list of retro/nostalgic people that the audience would have liked to bring back, no way he was anywhere near the top of the list.
We can't get Austin, Punk, Bryan, or Lita back, but we can get SHANE MCMAHON!!!
If his match with the Undertaker lasts longer than 5 seconds that makes the Undertaker lose credibility.
Didn't Shane leave the WWE for a better life and career? Yes, the WWE is a nepotistic tyranny, but this might actually be to far, too much.
WWE keeps finding reasons for me to not watch wrestling in general.
