My predictions -

2 out of 3 falls
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Triple H
HHH screws Austin for the win, 'cause SCSA is already in the WRESTLEMANIA main event

World Wrestling Federation Championship
Kurt Angle vs. The Rock
Duh, the WMX7 poster gave it away - ROCKY ROCKY ROCKY

Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley vs. Trish Stratus
Yeah, Steph jobs to TRISH No way !
(I'm hoping for some "accidental" nudity here )

Tag Team Championship Table Match
Dudley Boyz vs. Edge & Christian vs. Kane & Undertaker
DEADMAN INC. gets the belts for a brief run

Intercontinental Championship
Chris Jericho vs. X-Pac vs. Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero
Y2J keeps the IC title, and X-Pac must die

Hardcore Championship
Raven vs. Big Show
Big Show with the HC title sounds real amusing

Jerry Lawler vs. Steven Richards
Stevie gets dropped on his head and thinks it's 1996 again, goes back to work as Raven's hilarious flunky (a la ECW's golden era)
oh, and The Kat get naked !

Can we just end the RTC gimmick now? I am so tired of it.

Though I don't mind the Right To Nudity gimmick.

Also, can't we just agree that we all know that the Wrestlemania main event will be Austin Versus Rock and get it done and over with?

JoeC...whatever happened to effective booking?

WCW News

There is a lot of talk now that the company was sold that there will be a 2 week hiatus of WCW programming [possibly in April] to get the writers and bookers time to develop new angles and give the company direction.

AS for other news, Hogan, Hall, Sting, Booker T and Goldberg are expected to make their return on the Nitro that will follow the above paragraph.

The cruiserweights will have a tag team title of their own soon.

No mention if Mark Madden or any of the recently released women of WCW will be brought back.

IMO, I hope that WCW can make a comeback and put on great shows as they did in the early Bischoff years. I perfer WCW over WWF because I think the WWF has gone too far w/their angles.

Personally, I hope Angle retains tonight, causing everyone to blow a head gasket that the WM main event is screwed up. This could lead to a coupla weeks of promos from Kurt about how he keeps defying the odds and rising to the challenges presented to him, yadda, yadda. Then, about a week before WM, he drops the title to Rocky on Raw or Smackdown in a "fumble at the goalline" sort of scenario, thereby giving the fans "what they want". Also hope Edge and Christian win the belts back so that 'Team ECK' holds all the major gold in the fed.

Who cares...bunch of over the hill wrestlers...some talent - yes, but for the most part - pathetic. I mean jeez they don't sell the shots worth a damn and there are a TON of missed spots...every time I watch it, I just have to laugh because it looks like an amature group compared to the WWF.
