HHH I think is still not fit to return to the full-time schedule, though he did return for a non-televised match against Alberto Del Rio a few weeks ago.

Taker was buried alive by Kane wasn't he? :? :lol: Joking apart recovering from years of built-up injuries I would guess, preparing for surely one last run with the company. Legend. :BOW:

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train

HHH didn't just have a match against Del Rio, he came out and buried him. Why? Cos Del Rio is a very effective heel and HHH prefers to be the bad guy so Del Rio might just be in a position to steal HHH spot and we can't be having that.

Hardy was a spot monkey. Very charismatic in the ring, but his mic work was always poor. Unlike Matt who could work AND could speak.



Sorry have to disagree - Matt was solid in the ring but on the mic he was beyond useless in my opinion. I remember him cutting a very long, labourious promo on the back of a much hyped return which completely took any momentum he had away. Reminded me of Ultimate Warrior in WCW and his half hour rant at Hulk Hogan.

Ring work on its own isn't enough - it has to be backed up by something. Jeff had charisma, Matt didn't. If you were to watch a Morrison/Miz tag match from a couple of years back you would never have believed that the Miz would be the one who would get to be WWE Champ first. But that's because Miz can talk and Morrison can't.

The Miz is a great role model for anyone who wants to get into wrestling IMO, he went from a reality show star to having to make it into wrestling the hard way. He's come on leaps and bounds in the last couple years.


Apparantly HHH was producing the shows in the UK that were taped a couple weeks back, reportedly he was a lot more calm with the announcers than Vince normally is, barely said a word to them.

Okay HHH bashers, does it really matter that Del Rio, who has been handed a great push on SD, got squashed by The Game on an event which reached 0.01% of WWE's 'Universe?'

I'd imagine HHH will be returning soon though, pre-Rumble. Taker is being wrapped in cotton wool so he's 100% for Mania. Think he just had more surgery too.

Just watched the Hardys shoot video for the first time. What a pair of idiots. So much wasted talent in that diner. Bradshaw was at the bar[size=40][size=200][/size][/size]

Matt Hardy (during his motivated days before he went nuts :CRAZY: ) was a great asset to the company - he was an all-rounder who could have a good match with nearly anybody, and whever I saw him live in England he always got one of the reactions of the night whether a heel or face (his Mattitude Era was fantastic IMO).


Yes the Mattitude era was very good, I enjoyed the gimmick. Matt Hardy was decent on the mic, but not great. But he was a good ring worker, who could sell a move against both smaller and bigger opponents.

Matt's problem now seems to be that his body is fading fast on him, which is understandable given the work load. The last time I saw him wrestle, he looked in horrible shape.

Well yeah, the hell normally calls the match. It's like the man leads when dancing.
