Is it just me, or is there NO cage above the ring. I've tried to look when they have shown the crowd and I can't see one; I've got to believe we get some sort of screw job ending tonight.

i liked stone cold before yesterday. what they have him doing now is against everything that they ever had him doing. he was always the 'screw authority and screw vince' kinda guy but i absolutely HATE what they have turned him into now. the old stone cold would never have pulled this crap. hopefully it is just a lull for austin to turn on hhh and vince and kick their ass.

While I would have loved to see HHH tunr on McMahon, I liked seeing Rock get his a$$ whipped even more. I hope that Rock leaves for Scorpion King soon and leaves room for the development of fresh faces. I hate to disappoint any Rock fans in here, but his schtick is getting old. It's time to give the top face status to someone like Taker or Jericho.

Well i don't like the austin heel turn a damn bit. And his mic skills are not used to being Heel mic skills. You could tell from the mic work he did today, he was just not used to it.. its been so long since he was heel..
In any case. i see the rock being taken out by HHH and Austin, and then taker steping up for the final belt reign (retires later this year) I hope Jericho and Benoit become a tag team (since the TLCII match ended the fued between the three tag teams as the wwf says it) so there needs to be new tag teams.

Take this as just an internet rumor ...
"-If you ordered Wrestlemania tonight or read the results, you would know that Austin finally made his long awaited heel turn with Vince McMahon. The rumored reason for this turn is because of the fact that Austin despises WCW so much that he would do anything, including selling his soul to the devil [aka Vince McMahon], to fight against WCW rising up again. With Shane defeating Vince in the street fight match, it seems as if 'WCW' has the upper hand so far in this feud and the feud will only grow stronger in the future, but now Vince has someone on his side to help him in the long war between the two promotions."

I think that Austin as a heel can work. But it's difficult to see who will end up in the top face spot alongside The Rock. Somehow I see Vince and Austin screwing Triple H eventually. One thing that I didn't like about Austin's turn is that he tapped out when Rock applied the Sharpshooter on RAW. The "old" Austin was known for never giving up, as was emphasized during his Wrestlemania match with Bret Hart a few years back. Ironically, this was the match that turned Austin into a face.

If Taker is retiring I hope they give him a proper exit with a victory and not limping out in disgrace. He deserves a run with the belt more than any of the talent they currently have, and he happens to be my favorite. Once Taker retires, I might halt watching WWF and view WCW instead!

I liked Austin better when he was Stunning Steve Austin. He was cockier. I also liked him better when he was more badass and less redneck than he is now.
